Seat-warming Florida Sen. George Lemieux, a frenchy, is FURIOUS at Barack Obama for not getting in a wetsuit and using his magical powers to plug the oil hole with rainbows. “I wanna see my president not in a suit in Washington D.C. I wanna see him down on the Gulf Coast, not just for a day of photo shoot, but on the job, leading the effort.” It is his job, after all! “When he’s not there, I want Joe Biden.” Ha ha is that really what you want? “I don’t want him in Africa going to a soccer game.” That’s the perfect place for Joe Biden! Wait. Who the hell is George Lemieux, again? [TPM]

He just wants to see Obamarz all oiled up and shirtless on a Florida beach.
No fucking way. Free-market cleanup or GTFO. The free market WILL clean this shit up, right?
“I don’t want him in Africa going to a soccer game.”
Joe Biden’s going to Gary Coleman’s funeral?!
Basketball Junk Shot?
So where’s your mop and pail, Georgie Hypocrite?
I want to see my president in a tight-fitting t-shirt that has been thoroughly drenched with Salty Dogs and pickle juice pop-locking to “Cars” by Gary Numan.
Yeah, Barry should stand around with his sleeves rolled up and shout into a megaphone or whatever. That’ll teach that oil! Anything else, say…exerting your “executive” powers to “delegate authority” to federal institutions that have “boats” and shit, is not presidential!
(Did Joe’s co-host just get back from playing tennis or something?)
Only way this argument makes sense is if Obama is:
a) Deepwater Petroleum Engineer
b) Deep Sea Diver
c) Superman
d) Aquaman
e) All of the Above
I thought he was against Big Government?
[re=587564]Extemporanus[/re]: whatchoo talkin bout extemporanus? He’s dead? Shit, that puts a lotta pressure on webster, doesn’t it?
Why in the world would you want Obama to fix the leak when he’s the one who caused it in the first place?
Sweet Fancy Moses. How many times did George HW go to Alaska? Did they expect him to scrub rocks with Dawn? Fuck you Lemieux. Get you, and your Drill Baby Driller’s asses down there and clean up the mess you made. Assholes. All.
Also. Jim, before you can leave teh wonkett, you have to top Sully on the latest Noonan piece. This might take hours., days even.
[re=587574]Crank Tango[/re]: I guess he just missed Jacko SO much…
Lemieux is a discredit to the Frog race!

Shorter Lemieux: “I will not rest until President Obama announces he will be completely paralyzed by this situation, in exactly the same way Jimmy Carter was when he said he wouldn’t go anywhere or do anything until the hostages were freed.” Because if there’s one Democratic president the Republicans wholeheartedly admire, it’s Carter. So get down there, Mr. President, and we want to see you on the beach with a package of ShamWows and a bottle of Dawn every day for the next ten years or so.
[re=587573]JMP[/re]: That’s just something that they say to score with lumpy, potato-shaped Teabaggers.
I saw Ledouche on Morning Joe. Even Joe couldn’t stomach the bullshit. Ledouche said that Obama has to take responsibility because he should have gotten rid of the Bushies in the MMS when he came into office. Apparently the argument is “This is your fault for not recognizing our incompetence–ya had 18 months to clean house. You should have known we’d fuck up.”
I wonder if his friends call him Pepe.
Not enough damage yet.
[re=587593]IgnatiusReilly[/re]: Why the hell did Obama have to wait until he took office to fix MMS. He should have known about this when he was a “senator”. In fact, he should have done something about MMS when he was a “community organizer” instead of getting guns and drugs for Acorn.
“I don’t know, but I wish that Ken Salazar would shut up already about having his boot on BP’s throat. It used to be a cool thing to say, kinda, but the way he keeps saying it over and over and over like he’s some kind of middle-schooler with a revenge fantasy – it’s just not cool at all anymore. I stopped saying it months ago. Really.” – Darth Vader
St. Petersburg Times Oct 23 2009 “Details of LeMeiuxs work for oil group remains murky”. You can’t make this shit up, (sorry, I’m old and dumb and don’t k now how to do a link).
[re=587593]IgnatiusReilly[/re]:
Ah, but then they’d shriek it was all a demrat purge to rid MMS of good christian white adults on the same scale as purging federal prosecutors or if it were a political appointment, put a “secret” hold or filibuster it.
Either way, GOPers will make a point to the Lamestream media.
Fucker is just warming the seat for Crist/Rubio. I haven’t seen him around at all on the GulfCoast.
So why are you in a suit in Washington? Hengghhh?
Creepy how Lemieux’s expression brightened a tad after Joe opened the way for tourist-baiting. “On the other hand, great time for a vacation; no place better than our not-quite-yet-oil-tarnished coasts!” He couldn’t have looked more relieved than if his wire feed had intoned, “Sen. Mix-a-Lot, they’re saving a slice of birthday cake for you at Giuliani’s office.”
[re=587564]Extemporanus[/re]: That nonsensically offensive comment represents my poor attempt to be the first to shoehorn news of Arnold’s untimely passing into a completely unrelated post, and for that I would like to offer Mr. Drummond — as well as his mistress Mrs. Garrett, and their bisexual excon rentboy, Todd — my sincerest apologies.
[re=587574]Crank Tango[/re]: Making fun of Arnold probably landed me on the racist short list — it’s for the best that I don’t insult the memory of wee little Webster as well.
Vern Troyer, however…
WHY ISN”T PRESIDENT OBUMMER OVER IN PAHHKEEESTAHN LOOKING FOR THE TERRISTS??? IT”S HIS JOB!!!1!
I was taken by his repeated references to “farther”, as in we need to drill “farther” from the coast to avoid this kind of problem. He sounds like somebody who dumps his garbage in the vacant lots between neighborhoods but then again, as a Republican, he likely is that somebody.
Wait just a minute here, Who the fuck is the President? George Lemieux? STFU and go back to France, surrender to Germany, also.
Waah, waah, waah! My state needs better roads! I want my President working on the road crew.
I want to see George Lemieux’s head kicked around like a soccer ball, not having his furious wingnut ranting taken seriously on the Gulf Coast.
[re=587572]ManchuCandidate[/re]: You fuckers all laughed at Aquaman; said he wasn’t “good enough” to be in the Justice League; said his powers were stupid and fruity. Well, who’s laughing now, henngh? It sure would be handy to have a bunch of whales and kraaken and shit to stuff baby seals into that pipe, wouldn’t it? I’ll be Aquaman and Namor are in Key West right now, crying into their rum coolers like that highway litter indian. Reap what you sow, people, reap what you sow.
Exactly. If George W Bush had shown this type of attitude we never would have captured Bin laden.
[re=587597]gurukalehuru[/re]: Pepe, or maybe Oui Oui.
[re=587593]IgnatiusReilly[/re]: But then LeDouche says we can’t look back, which is the Teabaggers’ mantra.
[re=587650]Scarab[/re]: Ha! Precisely!!
He really went downhill after he retired from the Pittsburgh Penguins.
I’d almost rather have had Crist appoint himself as Senator than this clown.
Did he spot Bush in the Superdome hauling water for the black folk back in 05. if not get a life Mr Pepe LePew

Yeah Obama can ride in a pontoon boat with Limbaugh and Dick Cheney as the starboard and shipboard floaters, respectively. Palin as the anchor. Nautical Also.
[re=587779]nelore[/re]: exactamundo
My friend dated this guy in high school. Apparently he never outgrew being a douchey over-privileged twat. STFU Lemieux, no one cares what you have to say.
[re=587572]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Don’t forget Letter-man. “Faster than a rolling O” … He could then change the ‘oil’ to ‘soil’. Yay! Letter-man!
Or better yet, “Frenchie” could get off his whiny ass and go there first to lend a hand. Oh, and get me a snap of oiled up Obama in his tightie whities … also thnx.
[re=587563]Crank Tango[/re]: BP is preparing to deploy the invisible hand of the market to scoop up all the oil and distribute it to grateful motorists. Because they are rational economic agents.
Heck – drilling farther out. Brilliant solution, LeDouche. Way easier to work in deeper water with more intense pressures and more complex weather and currents. Can he just stay in the Senate forever and be smart?
Wait, this magical government “which is the problem” and creates terror by saying it is “here to help” is supposed to solve all of you gulf-situated corporate-created problems? Is this government supposed to solve all your problems before or after you have drowned it in the bathtub?
[re=587649]edgydrifter[/re]: Ah! You made my dad with a reference to my childhood bud, Submariner!
