Really?
Well, then I must be a racist.
...who knew. My mother is going to be so disappointed in me.
Obama is the "Meowth" to Bush's "Pikachu"
...and his foreign policy is "Ekans" to Bush's "Gyarados"
I'm sad that I know this.

That fact that Collier is getting long in the tooth, may explain some of his indiscretion, But why isn't the MSM kicking his butt??
Quote:
James Lincoln Collier (born June 27, 1928) is a journalist, author, and professional musician.
Collier was born to Edmund Collier and Katherine Brown. He came from a family of writers and teachers, including his father and several aunts and uncles. He graduated from Hamilton College in 1950. A journalist with thirty years of experience, Collier worked with his brother, Christopher Collier, to create works of historical fiction designed to be fun and educational for children. Christopher Collier was a history professor and gave James historical information so that he could write the stories. Their historical novel Jump Ship to Freedom (1981) has been frequently challenged and removed from libraries because of the use of the word "nigger" by characters in the book.
Collier's notable literary works include My Brother Sam Is Dead (1974), a Newbery Honor book that was also named an American Library Association Notable Children's Book and nominated for a National Book Award in 1975. He also wrote a children's book titled The Empty Mirror (2004), The Teddy Bear Habit (1967), about an insecure boy whose beatnik guitar teacher turns out to be a crook, and Rich and Famous (1975), sequel to The Teddy Bear Habit. His list of children's books also includes Chipper (2001), about a young boy in a gang. His writings for adults include numerous books on jazz, including biographies of Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington. He has also contributed entries on jazz-related subjects to the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians.
In addition to his writing, Collier is an accomplished jazz musician who plays the trombone professionally.

The psychology of B.O.
Is anyone else curious as to what is going on inside BO's brain these days? I wonder whether he has effectively "given up" on trying to govern the country because he now realizes he's just not up to the task, and is now just going to live it up for the duration of his time in office. As far as I can tell, it's either that or he is so delusional that he truly believes all his critics are stupid and/or racist and that he knows better than us all. If the latter is true, than we truly are headed for even darker times.
Either way, I would take the peanut farmer President from Georgia anyday over BO, as much as it pains me to say that....

Have you looked at our Southern border lately, for one?
He is dismantling the Constitution and establishing an Executive controlled socialist state for another.

I suggest you look harder. His attorney general is a treasonous pos. He has used the IRS to harrass political opponents. He ignores congressional mandates and supreme court decisions and his wife looks like Chewbacca.

The Chewbacca part is good enough for me not to like him.
