I don't get the flip-flop.

Twice he said the guy is a fine public servant.

Twice he said the Senate has to handle it.

Nobama is a man of such great principle, ROFL!!! You dims have been had!
But he is still your President and a man who can affect your life in more ways than one whether you call him 'Nobama' or Obama.

Nice try thou...

BTW, why would anyone post here if they weren't hoping for a response? If I am a troll then everyone is.
The only replies your silly post got were from people asking you to explain how the two statements indicated a flip-flop. Like a troll, you never explained. Feel like doing it now? Or...ever?

In Neocon-speak that's flip floppin. Like murdering 1.2 million civilians is a war on terror, restarting the bloodshed in the Holy Land is a Roadmap for Peace, a homeschooled nation is No Child Left behind, bankrupting the country is "fundamentally sound", torture is "harsh interrogation methods", and so forth.

You didn't say the responses were all you "hoped" for, you said the responses were what you "expected." A statement that implies that you cast the question in such a way to get responses that met your "expectations." Casting a question in such specific ways would pretty much define trolling.

I've noticed that Ridgewalker completely ignored the post which requested that he answer the question:

Quote:
"How is this a FLIP-FLOP?"
which is the subject of his original post.

All his follow-up posts were nothing more than democrat insults.

It's such a shame so many "repukes" are incapable of intelligent debate.

But then again ... they were entirely responsible for putting that idiot Bush into the White House ... so what else can we expect from them?

The dems said that no one submitted by Blago would be seated, Nobamnation supported that position.

Nobama now says that he would work with someone he previously said
wasn't worthy of being seated. That's a flip flop boy and girls.

You can say what you want but in doing so your only further prove the fact that dims are obtuse by choice.
