    Scott,

    Is this the same speach where, in reference to Tea Partiers, James Hoffa urged Obama supporters to "take these son-of-a-bitches out?"

    Fox released an edited version of Hoffa's comments and that appears to be the only one I can find. In it a comment to the effect, "We all have one vote. We need to used it to take (expletive) out" was edited out. It was not a "second amendment option" comment so common with the tea party.

    Congressman Allen West (R-FL) chose this person to be his Chief of Staff. (Start at 6:00 mins)

    Also as a point of business, Hoffa had his speech and President Obama had his, two different speeches.

    Raise your hand if you either already watched, or might consider watching Obama's 24 minute 19 second campaign speech video that Scott just posted, with the thought it either did or might actually confirm your past vote for him, or cause you to change your mind and consider voting for him in 2012. Not just parts of the video, but the whole thing start to finish.

    I'm just taking a poll since I have not heard enough Obama speeches in the last two and a half years, as there haven't been many, so I'm not sure if I want to spend the time watching it.

    And there's still a chance I could be having dinner with him someday.

    He is the President of the United States and you will not spend 20+ minutes to hear what he said. Oh, and I am the one who cannot hold a civil (def: of, pertaining to, or consisting of citizens: civil life; civil society.) conversation. You have to know what is going on in order to have a civil conversation.

    Scott it is no use, we had everything going so well with the progressives in charge of congress from 2006-2011, the Republicans have so totally screwed things up in the last 8 months that they have controlled 1/2 of 1/3 of the branches of government that they made it retroactive to 2008, so after another 16 months of Republicans in charge of the House of Representatives we will be screwed up all the way back to 2004-how can we ever get caught up?

    Sorry I was late on this post of last week. Don't worry Pete I listen to EVERY speech of his..........have also read both of his books 2 or 3 times each. Each time another nugget of this man's character is revealed.

    Yes Scott both had their own speech. His Labor Day speech was on taxpayer business..........it was not a campaign trip. You would think some of those 20-30 yr old aides of Barry might have vetted Hoffa's speech since he was on the same platform as the president. But I guess lack of experience allowed that to happen. And speaking of campaign's I see he raised a mere $86 million in the period ending June 30 but only expects to raise a measly $55 million in this next election period. The next time I hear a democrat (listen Mel) whine about rich Republicans...............I'm going to get nauseated and throw up like Scott.

    "The next time I hear a democrat (listen Mel) whine about rich Republicans...............I'm going to get nauseated and throw up like Scott."

    the next time I hear a rich republican bitch about higher taxes my nausea will be there too. These "job creators" have had tax breaks for a long time now so where are the jobs? they are sitting on their cash until Obama is out. Hope they "sit on" it for another 4 years.
