@soopaman: "Maybe its me but I thought the Pres. was supposed to be able to run the country not be somebody I would like to smoke a blunt and grab a 40oz of PBR with." But enough about the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections...

The country is half and half divided on this, which may lead to a potential clash down the future.....

I was born and raised in NY. Maybe im wrong for not wanting thingd to go to shit because "we have a cool president". Maybe its me but I thought the Pres. was supposed to be able to run the country not be somebody I would like to smoke a blunt and grab a 40oz of PBR with. Osama barely won the popular vote thats because not all of the country is a bunch of liberal zombies.

"Cult of Obama is on the rise. Who will the neo-libs hate once Bush is gone?" Do you realize that 80% of NYC voted Obama? Move back to Texas with the rest of the worthless rednecks from the Bush Adminstration.

the communism jokes were fresh during the cold war boys, it's unfortunate that the only funny conservative is PJ O'Rourke

I'd rather have an intelligent socialist in the white house than a retarded incompetant fucktard redneck like Bush

Obama is not a communist, those who accused him as such don't do their research (or they are desperate). He is much closer to National Socialism then anything else.

I don't understand how anyone thinks that Obama's ideas are even remotely Communist... Please explain, if you're capable.

(Laura Bush upon seeing the Obamas at the front door) "Honey, didn't I ask you to have the hired help come in thru the back"?

Im sure Osama will be all over the Russian news. Right after we hand them over the keys. Michelle Obama is not desirable in the least i would have to be drunk off my ass and have taken 10 Viagra before my junk even budges.

Republicans who dont like Obama news should consider moving to Russia, since thats the one place that isnt ecstatic about Obama's victory.

Bush throws open doors to White House Bedroom "And this is where the magic happens....heh heh"

In the initial minute or so, I liked how he touched Bush's shoulder and arm a few times in front of the cameras. It's an alpha male dom move. Bush didn't look happy about it. Notice how Barack lingered for the camera while Bush made the barely-perceptibly-awkward move to break the photo op.

Is it true a lot of woman have a girl crush on Michelle? that's what I'm hearing around the school.

Judging by the first few seconds of this video, Obama is more commanding than Bush. This is good.

I thought Cheney was the President. I've been mislead!

I heard Cheney chained himself to a radiator.

It must have been challenging for Obama to phrase everything in monosyllables. You want to tailor your message to your audience. Didn't want W to get to confused and start a'droolin'.

I like how Gothamist has more political stories.

this is probably how a conversation went: obama: "GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE YOU FUCKED UP AMERICA!" bush: "What does "fuck" mean????"

what does this have to do with NY? Besides the fact that it is Obama-bot headquarters of course.
