‘stop whining’

Extreme Liberal: If you haven’t gone to iTunes and subscribed to the Bubble Genius Bob and Chez Show podcast, you are missing out on the best political analysis around and a lot of great laughs. You can find them at their respective blogs, Bob Cesca’s Aweseome Blog! Go! and Deus Ex Malcontent where they consistently tell it like it is.

A few weeks ago, they did a show called “Stop Whining”, which I highly recommend you listen to, after you subscribe to them on iTunes. But in case you prefer reading or are at work and can’t really listen, I took the time to transcribe a large portion of that show for your reading pleasure. I think it exposes the true motivations and agenda of those who have become known as the “Professional Left” or the name I prefer, “Firebaggers”……

inside the bubble

BBC: President Barack Obama has said he enjoys golf in large part because a game is the only way he can escape outdoors for hours at a time. He said he misses the trappings of ordinary life - weekend lie-ins, trips to the market and walks in the park. “I just want to go through Central Park and watch folks passing by,” he told Hearst newspapers. “I miss that.”

Mr Obama’s security bubble precludes much privacy and spontaneity … “I miss being anonymous. I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. I can’t take a walk.”

He said he loves his life at the White House but does not enjoy the “kabuki dance” of Washington DC partisan politics.

As to golf, Mr Obama rejected suggestions he is fanatical about the game, saying: “It’s the only excuse I have to get outside for four hours at a stretch.”
