Whats Obama read to relax?

I see, watching fox news makes you a lame idiot but reading trash makes you worldly. Sheeesh. Just a reminder! GODAMN AMERICA, GODAMN AMERICA! Holding hands with saudi prince? lets play the connection game with both shall we!

Well its a subjective thing really isn't it - but I suspect the rationale follows the line that I haven't read the book (so I don't really have any context to judge it or the author - other than taking the word of a 3rd party), but I have watched Fox News (so I can).

In either case - watching or reading these things does not make a person a "lame idiot". People aren't really defined by the stuff they read or watch on the television. You are defined by what you say and do. Therefore if Obama was reading Mein Kampf, and later went on a racist diatribe about how Jews brought down the economy - a person might put 2 + 2 together. None of this of course speaks to the values or intelligence of the individual reading the book or watching a TV show, or indeed what they are getting out of these things.

Incidentally this is why I call "stupid" when you repeat stereotyped assumptions about "libruls" and stale party political soundbites.

God forbid an American presidential candidate reads a politics book .... apparently intelligence is divorced from running the highest office of the country...

I guess Obama needs to "read them all, all of them, we have many sources for our news" like Ms. Palin, eh?

Sheesh.

My sentiments exactly... since when is it bad to read books? To graduate from a good school?

i just don't understand all the madness...

Apparently it is bad manners --

Whether the book is good or bad doesn't reflect on the person reading it or what they get out of it.

If that's the premise here, its thin to say the least.

Rogue is taking an ### whipping... you need to call in the Neo-Con cavalry! Of course they won't have any actual facts or coherent arguments to support your case, but they can at least give you moral support in your time of need. Where's Kaydee when you really need him?

I'm sure someone will be by with the popular book of "anti liberal" slogans. Clinging to their partisanship like a drowning man to the spar of a sinking ship.

you said the "E" word

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Elitist!?

Be careful around that word - one of them might pop in and comment on the "ironicalness" of the statement

The funny thing is most of the people who slam the Rogue/Kaydee crowd aren't liberal. However to make themselves feel better about their whackjob opinions they label everyone who opposes them as a liberal.
