How did the people at AIG issuing trillions in unsupported CDS's know that Obama would be elected and take his wife to dinner?
That's the easiest one in the book.
Everyone takes their wife to dinner .....

BAD WERNER!
Go curl up on your blanky.
Right now.
That's exactly the same kind of outrageous shyte I got when I started climbing with MIT people.
If you had shyte kicked this climbing nonsense, instead of living in that godawful Yosemite pit you would now be living in Oakland and commuting to Berkeley each day to fight with Kerwin over budgets.
A golden opportunity!
Admit it man.
You blew it - big time.

What you see as mere "bantering", Lois, I see as words to express ideas and thoughts about the world as we see it and how we would like to see it. The fact that you characterize it as "unimportant" goes a long way towards explaining why you write such crap. You don't care about what you're writing.

As much as I hate to push this thread back to the front page, but hey, it's like Jerry Springer, really dumb, but can't seem to stop watching. That's a bad thing!
Proposition:
Is Obama losing it? In the middle of a press conference to discuss important issues surrounding the tax cut legislation, Obama up and leaves????
Conclusion:
Frankly, I think their boy is losing it but, hey what to I know. Call me crazy Your Crazy but somehow skipping out like that - and for such a flimsy reason Citation, besides Youtube? - is weird Subjective Opinion even given who it (He) is.
Philosophy 101:
A straw man argument is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position.[1] To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by substituting it with a superficially similar yet unequivalent proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.
Addendum: Apparently LEB wasn't paying attention during the "Research Methods in Psychology" class. One must attribute their "Facts" with cited works. This is obviously not the case here. I don't think Youtube counts.

Doug just nailed you to the wall by pointing out your logical fallacies and that's the best you can do - ignore?

It was also an impromptu, hastily assembled, news conference. Clinton and Obama had a discussion and thought a talk from Clinton with reporters is an opportunity they should grab now.
LEB, do you know anyone else who is bitching about Obama leaving? Beck, Rush?
Should he have just stood there for 60 minutes?
