Invading Iraq was a bit like using a nuclear weapon to kill an ant…sort of. I don’t know what the hell John Boehner is thinking saying the same about passing a Wall Street Reform bill to address the financial catastrophe. That’s not just tone deaf; it’s political malpractice on a Joe Barton level. And Obama didn’t forget to swing.

Obama swinging at No-Boner is like a nuclear weapon killing an ant.
That’s ok though.
Hell Cheney almost nuked Iran. I thought Repubs loved nukes. I seem to recall lots of Repoub comments in the good old days (Before Obama) about Nuking Mecca, etc.
What maroons.
Bush’s special relationship with King Abdullah (and the bin Laden family) was the only thing that saved Mecca from being nuked. If any of the current Iran-bashers had been president, Mecca would have become a cinder.
I wouldn’t say too much about that at this point. It’s looking more and more likely that it is under Obama’s administration that Iran will be nuked.
he should be withdrawing. The economy in a shambles. Day 72 of an oil gusher disaster.
And you get pleasure from Obama insulting a moronic Republican.
Their “political malpractice” won’t be noticed by an electorate preoccupied by Obama’s ineptitude and cowardice.
The limitless possibilities of Obama’s presidency have so far been pissed away.
IDEA
JB what kind of ant needs a nuke?
Must be the big giant wall street ant.
show scenes from movie “Them”
Those aren’t them
Those are B&W 1950’S mutant ants, These are much worse.
The ant JB should be thinking of is “The Giant Mutant Wall Street Ant”.

This ant may require more than Nukes.
It might require real genuine american’s.
