Wingnuts: Your best entertainment value

Justin Higgins has some deep, deep, very very serious concerns about the direction that Barack Obama is taking this country:

Change: Shunning Traditional Respect for The Office

Ronald Reagan left an extra jacket and tie outside the door so that anyone that wanted to come speak to him would be properly dressed to be in the office. CNN also notes the Bush Administration policy versus the policy of the new administration:

In the Bush administration, it was a rule: Jackets in the Oval Office — and now, it seems, one of the first Bush-era regulations to get scrapped in the Obama White House.

This isn’t an issue of “Presidential preference” to me, but rather, it’s an issue of respect for the office. It’s not something that merits impeachment or public outcry, but rather a second look at how President Obama is approaching his new job. Keep it in the back of your head if formality becomes in an issue in his approach.

Well, clearly Justin has put his finger directly on the core threat that the new administration poses to our country. We are headed for a disaster of biblical proportions. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… MASS HYSTERIA! Oh, if only Obama had worn his jacket in the Oval Office!

Jumpin’ Judas in a lobster bib… if this is the kind of incisive, clear-headed political analysis that we can expect from Justin Higgins for the next four years, I for one intend to call Jon Stewart right now and insist that Justin be given a regular spot on The Daily Show. This petty, puerile, anal-retentive little collegiate dimtard is pure comedy gold.

  1. Right on! I also like your Bill Murray Ghost Busters reference.

  2. Grow up, kid. There are 3 things wrong w/your assessment…

    1 – Relax, douche bag. Not all news is “news”. Blurbs like this always surface to fill gaps in the news cycle. Never mind that fluff pieces like this get written about EVERY POTUS.

    2 – Even though the subject matter is trivial in comparison to other issues, it does show a lack of respect & reverence to tradition, & the Office. Of course, most of you that are making such a big deal about this have never worked at a job that had a dress code, so you wouldn’t have any idea how a professional is supposed to behave. Hell, you’re all probably still wearing name tags. Act the part. Dress the part. He’s not an inside salesman peddling advertising in the local Yellow Pages, he’s the leader of the free world.

    3 – The only people making a big deal about this are Oblahma lemmings. OMG, someone has blasphemed your Messiah! Quick, get the pitchforks & torches! You people are too busy reacting over every perceived slight that you will make an issue out of anything. Of course, it’s interesting that none of you seem to care about the glaring problems Oblahma has regarding his shady acquaintances & appointees. Scandal surrounds just about everyone that surrounds Oblahma, but somehow all of you think that Oblahma is untouched by that. Of course, it’s always been a tactic of the left to make huge issues out of non-issues so that everyone forgets about what’s really going on.

  3. Not all news is “news”.

    Yet Justin believed that it was. Hmmmm.

    Even though the subject matter is trivial in comparison to other issues, it does show a lack of respect & reverence to tradition, & the Office.

    Wearing a jacket is the way to show respect and reverence to the Office. The last inhabitant of the Oval Office ignored large chunks of the Constitution, but at least he had enough respect for his Office to wear a jacket while he did so.

    ...you wouldn’t have any idea how a professional is supposed to behave.

    Ah. A professional behaves by addressing others as “douche bag”. Thanks for clearing that up.

    The only people making a big deal about this are Oblahma lemmings.

    Yet Justin made a big deal of it by devoting a post to the vapors he was experiencing at the very thought of a President doing the country’s business while in *GASP* shirt sleeves. Hmmmm.
