Where to put Obama's picture? [Papa B]

Papa B:

George Washington, our nation's first president and leader of the American Revolution!


Abe Lincoln, an honorable leader who pulled our nation through its darkest hour!


Alexander Hamilton, a Founding Father, first Secretary of the Treasury and leader of the Constitutional Convention!


Andrew Jackson, "Old Hickory", who fought the British in New Orleans!


Ulysses Grant, Union army general, who led the North to victor over slavery during the Civil War!


Ben Franklin, a genius, inventor, statesman, political theorist and leading author of the Constitution!


And, at long last, we have someone to put on the food stamp!

Obama's put more people on food stamps than any other president, so this placement is most appropriate. Unlike the Nobel Peace Prize, for which he did nothing, this is an "honor" he truly deserves.

Obama's Legacy?

The United States can issue a $3 bill, so that the old saying, "as phony as a three-dollar bill" will still stand.

Perhaps rename the food coupon in "one Pigford"

Ugh do we really need to have this "debate" again? I don't know if this is better because is 10x less racist or worse because it's unoriginal. http://www.pe.com/localnews/inland/stories/PE_News_Local_S_buck16.3d67d4a.html

This popped up in my "What's Hot in Google Reader" feed. You, sir, are a moron. A racist moron.

I'm also here from the Hot on Google feed reader.

1) Obama hasn't put anyone on food stamps. No president has ever put anyone on food stamps.
2) The reason our economy is in such a terrible state is because conservatives believe in deregulating everything (except abortion and gay marriage) and the financial industry became a little too deregulated, then collapsed in on itself because of unmitigated greed. Once again, not Obama.
3) The reason our country is in so much debt is because we invaded Afghanistan and Iraq under George Bush to search for non-existent WMDs. We are spending TRILLIONS overseas when people are forced here to resort to food stamps because they don't have jobs. Unfortunately no one can step in and fix this problem immediately. It will probably take us another 8 to 10 years to get out of this economic crisis.

I know this is your personal blog. You can think whatever you want, just wanted to inject some logic into the comment section.

Amazing how you all jump to judge, And NO ONE FORCED ANYONE ON FOOD STAMPS. NOR ARE THEY IN PAPER FORM OF ANY KIND.

YOUR IDEA OF PRINTING THEM WOULD COST MORE so once again you fail hard.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST LIMITS ARE SET BY YOUR STATE, RUN BY YOUR STATE, MONITORED BY YOUR STATE.

YOU FUCKING RETARD WHAT DOSE YOU STATE HAVE TO DO WITH OBAMA?

NOW IF YOU WANT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THINGS PLEASE DO YOU HOMEWORK AND FACT CHECK.

Anyone with a computer can type any statement and post it on the internet. But unless it is backed by credible evidence, who cares? It is no better than the random musing of the homeless man standing on the corner. I don't know who you are or why you think you have the expert knowledge to make such lofty claims. But without real, solid facts on your side, I really don't care.

Excellent post! You have made my morning, Doug!

Andrew Jackson also signed into law the Indian Removal Act. His picture should probably be printed on death certificates instead.

FastEddie said...

GW Bush and his pals ruined the economy. Why not put them on? Is it because you are a racist ass?

Aaron said...

I don't think your source supports your thesis. You claim that Obama put more people on food stamps than any other president is absurd on its face (no president has ever wielded such unilateral power over the economy, including Obama) and your cited sources don't suggest that the ranks have grown more under his administration than any other. In fact, your cited sources aren't even normalized for population, so they're quite misleading.

This is asinine.

Dateline 2020:
Good news: Obama has been put on the Quarter.
Bad news: Its a Quarter-Trillion Dollar Coin. And it takes two of them to buy a soda.

Wow. This is the most dumbass thinly veiled racist piece of shit "article" Ive had the displeasure to read.

Mary and Jan Hatch said...

Yes, you are a racist asshole.

ziggy said...

Quick question: is it possible to criticize a critique of Obama without using the word racist? Just wondering.

Anonymous said...

To paraphrase Bill Clinton, "One word. Arithmetic"

You are dumba** said...

Fast Eddie how long can you hold on to George Bush did all this. 5 years later and still no fault of Obama's. Wake up and smell the coffee you idiot.

Ice Queen said...

I am sick of people calling me a racist because I disagree with Obama's policies. Obama only represents the Democratic, liberal party and that representative could be black, white or other! I am against WHAT he stands for politically! That doesn't make me a racist!

Stupid is hard to quantify, so let's just say this is 'a lot' stupid. If you can remember back to 2008 when our country fell apart after Bush/Cheney...well, since then B. Obama has been trying to put it back together but he faces great adversity from the rich folks who evidently have a lot of people conned into thinking that it's the other way around. Really big stupid.
