She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, “Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.”

The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, “You’re in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.

She rolled her eyes and said, “You must be an Obama Democrat.”

“I am,” replied the man. “How did you know?”

“Well,” answered the balloonist, “everything you told me is technically correct but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I’m still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help to me.”

The man smiled and responded, “You must be a Republican.”

“I am,” replied the balloonist. “How did you know?”

“Well,” said the man, “you don’t know where you are — or where you are going. You’ve risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You’re in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now it’s my fault.”

—-I thought you might like this Eric.

All this shows is that Obama is not as liberal as we would like. Saying that trying to re-frame the perception of a tragic event is the same as blatantly lying in order to perpetrate an epic ongoing disaster [Iraq war] is pathetic.

BTW- The world is only black & white to simpletons…

He answers that question. Maybe you two wouldn’t look quite so stupid in your crass assumptions.

There was a great story on NPR tonight about Syrian activists trying to tell the rest of the Arab world, “Hey, you’re upset about a movie? We have a government here blowing up mosques every day with worshippers inside. How about a demonstration or two for us?”

No you’re not. Although, like S.R. I think the Islamic ‘ditto heads’ who did it were manipulated by A-holes who knew what they were doing.

I for one haven’t ignored the injustices of past wars. Nor do I see the link how because violence was inflicted more should be inflicted. Not to mention that blowing up random people doesn’t effect that fact that a movie was made. I dont believe this highly excitable crowed of violent zealots have any rational justification for their actions. And that view isnt about self-affirmation or arrogance. I know thats hard for you to believe, Joe, being so righteous and self affirming yourself (at least your internet identity).

BTW, Joe, Im not sure what drives your ethics, but in my world view being offended is not a good reason for murdering random (or any) people. Seriously Joe?
