Wilting Over Waffles
By MAUREEN DOWD
Published: April 23, 2008
He’s never going to shake her off.
Skip to next paragraph
Fred R. Conrad/The New York Times
Maureen Dowd
Not all by himself.
Is he skittish around her because he knows that she detests him and he’s used to charming everyone? Or does he feel guilty that he cut in line ahead of her? As the husband of Michelle, does he know better than to defy the will of a strong woman? Or is he simply scared of Hillary because she’s scary?
He is frantic to get away from her because he can’t keep carbo-loading to relate to the common people.
In the final days in Pennsylvania, he dutifully logged time at diners and force-fed himself waffles, pancakes, sausage and a Philly cheese steak. He split the pancakes with Michelle, left some of the waffle and sausage behind, and gave away the French fries that came with the cheese steak.
But this is clearly a man who can’t wait to get back to his organic scrambled egg whites. That was made plain with his cri de coeur at the Glider Diner in Scranton when a reporter asked him about Jimmy Carter and Hamas.
“Why” he pleaded, sounding a bit, dare we say, bitter, “can’t I just eat my waffle?”
His subtext was obvious: Why can’t I just be president? Why do I have to keep eating these gooey waffles and answering these gotcha questions and debating this gonzo woman?
Before they devour themselves once more, perhaps the Democrats will take a cue from Dr. Seuss’s “Marvin K. Mooney Will You Please Go Now!” (The writer once mischievously redid it for his friend Art Buchwald as “Richard M. Nixon Will You Please Go Now!”) They could sing:
“The time has come. The time has come. The time is now. Just go. ... I don’t care how. You can go by foot. You can go by cow. Hillary R. Clinton, will you please go now! You can go on skates. You can go on skis. ... You can go in an old blue shoe.
Just go, go, GO!”

time will tell. Hillary did a good job yesterday and the race goes on. Over breakfast this morning, my wife and I both agreed that we had two talented candidates and that could not be a bad thing. I do not pretend to speak for other democrats, but I know my family will all stand strong behind whichever of them comes out on top.
One could ask, if John McCain so repulses muscular conservatives such as RSR, how will HE ever not only unite the republicans, but unite America behind him? Time will tell.

Barry got his ass kicked last night, and the uncivil war goes on
and so does Operation Chaos. It scored a huge victory last night. Hillary will take this to Denver and the battle royal will start
McCain is doing fine. You should worry about your own screwed up party. I am enjoying the war :laugh2:

I think as time goes on, the Republican base will lose some of its animosity towards McCain. The same might be true for the Democrats and whichever candidate wins the nomination. The difference is that the Republicans have had a lot more time to allow time to heal the wounds than the Democrats will have when they finally decide their nominee.
I've said before that I think McCain is most probably the worst of the field of Republican nominees, but compared to either Democrat nominee, he is the uber-conservative.

As consumer confidence goes in the tank, Americans think both democrats are as good as McCain.... when the focus of the democrats shifts to portraying just how closely tied McCain is to the failed economic and foreign policies of Dubya, Americans will realize that four more years of those policies are NOT what is in the country's best interests.

To be honest, I only gave Hillary a 4-5% margin for the win in PA myself. I didn't expect the double-digit percentage win, but in light of the various problems which Obama has created for himself, I am not overly surprised either.
I just didn't know how much attention the Democrat voters would pay to the problems. Apparently, more than some Obamaphiles would like to believe....

Unfortunately for your party, the current occupant of the white house has stunk the place up so much...has done such an unimpressive job.... has driven the bus into the ditch so deeply...that voters are going to jump at the chance to put the place under new management.
And the voters are not going to worry too much about putting the rich people in america under the same tax schedule that allowed them - and the rest of the country - to prosper when Clinton was in office.

How very socialist of you. The next step would be to become a communist and declare that the oil companies and their property would be confiscated by the government via eminent domain, and then run by the government to ensure that ALL profits were redistributed to the masses (directly or indirectly).
BTW, businesses in general pass on the costs of doing business to the consumer, including any tax hikes on corporate profits. As long as the consumer public continues to spend their dollar with these businesses, the practice will continue. And legally, there is nothing anyone can do about it except to boycott businesses whose prices are exorbitant.
Want the cost of gasoline to go down? Organize a boycott of 2 of the major 5 oil companies for a prolonged time. You'll see gasoline prices plummet. But until consumers organize and refuse to exercise their collective "pocketbook-power" they're going to be unable to influence any change.

So Barry was not "clear" on raising the capital gains tax?
snip
) If Obama is correct and the economy (where the current jobless rate is 5.1 percent vs. recessionary peaks of 8.8 percent in 1975, 10.8 percent in 1982, 7.8 percent in 1992, and 6.3 percent in 2003) is "in a shambles" and "teetering not just on the edge of recession, but potentially worse," why would he want to nearly double the capital-gains-tax rate, which is a tax on savings, investment, and, yes, housing?
In the YouTube moment of the debate, comoderator Charlie Gibson of ABC News asked Obama twice why he wanted to raise capital-gains taxes since such a move would both 1) hit the middle class and 2) produce less government revenue. Obama—who didn't seem to know that middle-class people pay capital-gains taxes, since he had just moments earlier promised not to raise taxes on people making under the $200,000-to-$250,000 range—gave this answer:
Well, Charlie, what I've said is that I would look at raising the capital-gains tax for purposes of fairness....[And as to higher rates bringing in less revenue], well, that might happen or it might not. It depends on what's happening on Wall Street and how business is going.... ...And if we can stabilize that market and we can get credit flowing again, then I think we'll see stocks do well, and once again I think we can generate the revenue that we need to run this government and hopefully to pay down some of this debt.

Like the Dem platform, his positions are subject to change without notice :laugh2:

those are your opinions. I explained what I thought he meant by his statements regarding folks making less than $200K. I do not lie about him or about anything.

You spin for you boy regardless of the facts, and when needed (which is often) you deny the obvious

What else would you call denying what Barry said in a debate?
I know you are a BArry Kool Aide drinker, then you recycle it into bath water - but he said what he said

deny it? I never denied it. I SAID he gave a much less than clear answer to the capital gains question.
do not call me a liar. I don't lie. Please don't make me ask you again.

Oh, THAT line again. You have repeatedly been cornered by your lies, then get belligerent and angry when people call you on it, even when presenting PROOF that what you said was not true, along with proof that you had to know it wasn't true. Barack showed a clear lack of understanding of the capital gains tax, then, when confronted with the truth of the matter, his true self came out. He stated very clearly and concisely that he wanted to raise the capital gains tax to be 'fair.' Then, he realized what kind of crap he'd just stepped in and started bumbling around with his words not because he wasn't being clear, but because he was trying to use that 'articulate' side of himself to stuff the cat back in the bag and scrape the crap off his shoe. It didn't work, so now his acolytes are trying to rephrase the entire quote, despite the fact that his exact statement, right down to tone and body language, are a matter of public record and in no way resemble the picture being painted by the Obamaniacs.

I think that Obama is against raising the marginal income tax rates for people who make less than 200K. Is that hard for you to understand?Raising taxes on the missle class? Why, I thought only the rich should pay taxes?

MFM is drunk on Kool Aide as usual, and can't admit or face the truth
Barry has a bullseye on every workers wallet, and MFM could not care less
Party trumps truth with him

do you think that people who make more that 200K/year are part of the middle class, RSR?
If so, where does your Walmart salary put YOU?
How's Walmart's healthcare? Wasn't there just a big case about how they dropped some poor girl's coverage after she was hurt in a car accident? Gosh...I sure hope you're covered OK for catastrophic coverage.

Well, since you can't lie your way out of your defense of Barry's lie - you now change the subject
A sure sign you have nothing left to offer
Barry was busted on how he will increase taxes nearly every worker
and you were busted tryng to lie for him

fuck you baldy. I never lied for him. I said his answer about capital gains was confusing. His statement about not raising marginal income tax rates on people earning less than 200K is on record. We'll have to wait to see what president Obama does when he is in office.... well...some of us will wait....some of us won't.:laugh2:

I have no doubts that you are a lawyer, yurt.... It is just that I grew up in the home of a really great lawyer, so, from my perspective, you are just a cheesy ambulance chasing shyster.
In fact, I have NEVER told a lie on this site or any other. I have never said I was an ordained minister, because I am not...only that I do preach sermons from time to time. That's a fact...just like you are a whiny little shyster wimp ass excuse for an attorney.
AND you are a fucking pussy! :laugh2:
