Title: The African Usurper Refers To Himself as the GIPPER!

President Obama recounts an anecdote about the 2004 Democratic National Convention at White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs' final press briefing:

"The most challenging problem was what tie to wear. And this went up to the very last minute. I mean, 10 minutes before we were about to go on stage we were still having an argument about ties. I had bought five, six ties. And Michelle didn't like any of them, Axelrod didn't like a couple of them -- him being one of the best dressed men in the world. So we really valued his opinion.

"And then somebody -- I don't remember who it was -- turned and said, 'You know what? What about Gibbs' tie? What about Gibbs' tie? That might look good.' And, frankly, Robert didn't want to give it up because he thought he looked really good in the tie. But eventually he was willing to take one for the gipper, and so he took off his tie, and I put it on. And that's the tie that I wore at the national convention."


Poster Comment:

Obama wishes he was loved like the Gipper. But he isn't and never will be.

Hi Buck-

Go out of my way to talk to BobJ?? No.. not me. :) I did want to see if he had memory of chatting with me at ClownPosse- and he says that wasn't him...but we are not chatting. I find his posts confusing, actually.

Hope you are well, and you should be happy about getting banned from that horror of a site.

That was some site, Clown Posse. I'm still amazed they banned 'Virninja_the_character_assassin' so fast. Crushed to, as it was one of the best nicks I ever came up with for a site like that.

I tore into the site admin about how fucked upped the site was, particularly how to navigate. I also went after Bob_J and those folks can't forget it.

I think there is something wrong with all these chit-chat sites. Every stinkin' one of them eventually bans me and all I ever did was act cool, calm and rational.

lol- buck. Be nice- it is a total pain in the butt to run these sites- and they are all chitchat. THAT is what we are doing now. Bob should be able to take care of himself- BUT- you can't just tear into people..

Unless someone takes it realworld- just put people who bug you on ignore- or don't read their posts.

It makes other posters uncomfortable if you start brawling with someone out of the blue.. I know it is difficult sometimes, with certain people - (trust me, I know that) but unless Bob was poking at you- you should just ignore him. If he was poking at you, then the admin should be fair and tell you both to take it to a mudpit.

He is a self-aggrandizing whore. He never told you or many others but at one time he was the chief moderator in charge of the FR goon squad. I should know.

He slanted his posts about all he knows about FR over at TBF but he never told anyone that ittsy-bitsy little piece of data.

I know because he begged for my resume to become one of his underlings.

Thank you for the confidence. BTW, I can retrieve the data from FR if you think I am lying or exagerrating.

What strikes me as funny is Bob_J got his his ass banned last year from FR. He got what was coming to him playing around with the concept of an inner sanctum otherwise known as a goon squad.

The man stinks up everywhere he goes because of his authoritarian personna; he is the anti-thesis of liberty and freedom.

I wonder if they ever figured out I was the one who had that Fresno picnic busted as a hate group meeting by Fresno Human Right Committee after playing Sandra Duffy like a rube on FReepermail and starting expose threads on various Cali Indymedia sites.

I'd like to see Bob J do that one.

Mike, you and I have chatted on the Internet since 1998, correct? I think we first met on FR.

Have you noticed how I have never talked bad about Jim? In 1999, BadJoe and WillaJ (BadJoe's wife) started the threads for bringing in a few bucks to Jim because JR was about to go bankrupt. That effort kicked off a number of annual events so FR could stay on-line.

I only talk bad about JR's son, John, because that little punk makes all kinds of clones giving the impression that FR is LARGER THAN IT REALLY IS.

I found FR after chasing after a disruptor who was a pain in the ass on the Time.Com/Politics site and was calling for a FReep flying monkey style of that site.

I did start chatting with you about then, yes. I was on FR for several years as 'ferret,' but you knew that. ;-)

I liked those days and miss the old Don Morgan ASH ALERT!s and Trixie's 'Eagales UP! war cries.

The new bunch are so... bland compared to the folks that used to be there.

I miss Blackie too, who was local to me and used to have coffee with me at Saturday Market in Eugene.

That Guy really hates me and is still death on any accounts starting in Eugene, Oregon. He spotted me once taking pictures of Jim, him and others when they were picketing in protest of anti-war protesters in Fresno.

He tries to lead a charge of fat old FReepers on me. Gee, it was so hard to drive away from that lightweight brigade.

This is the problem of any small company when relatives are introduced as a full time employee. How Jim is tolerant of that punk's shenanigans is beyond me.

But FR is fraudulent from an operational perspective. It doesn't require 400K/yr to operate irrespective of staff considerations. The founder really did a good job but it has devolved.
