The fix is in kids. The Vick Triumphant Comeback.

[Safetykitten]

I am critcal and pessimistic. I admit it. But in my wildest dystopian nightmares who would think that a President would go there. Why would he comment on something so dangerous?

Well, we are seeing now. There is a game plan.

[Broderick]

1. What is the game plan?

wondering.

[onenote]

2. +1

[Recovered Repug]

28. In a stunning move, Biden will be dumped

and replaced by Michael Vick. It's SO obvious. I can't believe you haven't pieced it together.

[DefenseLawyer]

3. Unless you are insane, there was nothing remotely controversial in his comments.

Look inward. You are the one with the problem.

[City Lights]

4. michael vick = auto unrec.

There is a sports forum for threads regarding michael vick's superior athletic abilities. Unfortunately, no dog fighting forum though.

[Creative]

8. Unfortunately...?

[City Lights]

12. "unfortunately" as in because without one all the vick/dog fighting threads clog up GD.

GD would be so much easier to navigate if all the vick threads could be thrown into a separate forum.

[HEyHEY]

5. A shitty bit of advice from a PR man?

7. So Vick is now part of whatever global conspiracy you believe in? Wow.

Very sad.

[blondeatlast]

9. I'm as PO'ed about Vick as anyone here, but the President just made an admittedly alarmingly stupid

move.

As stupid as "My Pet Goat," actually, but thank goodness, far less serious.

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. Were planes crashing on buildings at the time?

Jesus... while Bush was reading My Pet Goat PEOPLE were dying... that is a very stupid analogy.

[Bluenorthwest]

11. This President says my family should not have equal right to

Vick because we are not 'sanctified by God'. Yet the puppy killer is a hero to be praised. It is stupid, vile and the man needs to take back every snarky bit of Christian judgmenalism he has puked forth about my people. The howling that GLBT people are simply irredeemable in the eyes of God, so we should never be allowed marriage rights- that is the President's thing, that God does not want us to be married- needs to cease now that he has gone to the point of bowing to an animal abuser and ranting about redemption for this torturing sociopath.
I am so upset that he speaks about my family as he does while finding all this acceptance for a man who has done repeated vicious acts against living things. This God of Obama's seems to me to be a monster. This hate for love and this love of torture, this devaluing of life itself is repellent to me, Nadin, and to have this man stand in judgment of my people is not acceptable.

[Broderick]

13. ouch

[onenote]

26. I'm curious as to how you managed to listen in on Obama's call with Lurie

I have to assume you were listening in since you seem to know specifics about the call that I've not seen reported anywhere, such as Obama's "praising" Vick as a "hero."

Or maybe you're just making shit up.

[blondeatlast]

16. wow--you're really into misreading stuff and missing subtle hints today,

aren't you?

[nadinbrzezinski]

27. No, just pointing out that the analogy does not work

what was your hint I don't care. Bad analogy.

[monmouth]

14. Sure can tell the kiddies are home from school this week... n/t

[CatWoman]

15. Jesus christ on a pogo stick

20. You just joined today, and you're very displeased with DU?

If that's your attitude, I guarantee it's not going to get any better for you.

[blondeatlast]

21. Funny, we've also been talking about the economy, war on two fronts,

civil rights, and DADT (Google it--big news last week).

Maybe we're displeasing you on those issues as well, but I can't tell--you don't respond to those threads.

22. I am very displease with you.

[TexasObserver]

18. What fix would that be?

The president's point of view on Vick is what could be properly characterized as "the typical Democrat's point of view on the matter."

Most Democrats and most Americans simply don't share your view on this topic.

He did a terrible thing. He was convicted. He served time. Now he's out and working.

[WinkyDink]

19. The Eagles are in like Flynn?

[Javaman]

24. Please, don't confuse "business as usual" with it being a "fix". nt

[denem]

25. Stupid Kick for Vick

[KoKo]

29. Amazing that our PRESIDENT took time to make Vick a "Victim for Redemption!"

It's astounding.

A Brave Du'er posted a couple of pics of those brutalized dogs and anyone who could "give a pass to Vick after what he did will ROT IN HELL!

It's a sad day when we have to "cough down" our President's "offering redemption" to Michael Vick ...after his henchmen TRASHED THE DEM LEFT as FUCKING RETARDS and DRUG ADDICTS!

If we had behaved with Cruelty to Animals like Vick did our PRESIDENT WOULD LOVE US! He would offer us "his" REDEMPTION!

Maybe Obama just sees things differently...but OMG...he does seem to have a view that doesn't sit too well with many of us who voted for him.

WHEN will Obama EXPLAIN TO US DEMS...WHERE HE IS GOING with THIS STUFF HE DOES THAT OFFENDS US TO OUR CORE? WHEN? :shrug: It's very disappointing...for the time and money we spent working for him...it makes me sad beyond what I can justify.
