Why would we need a comic book? Our economy is in shambles and our leader is concerned about some fantasy book . How prophetic this is of the next four years ,a comic book ,and the joke is on us.....more appropriatly the joke is in charge of us
ummm Dove, GSG's post was from the Onion. The stories in the Onion are made up, as in not true. They ARE funny, I will give George that, but they are not true stories and never have been. Not that this fact will change your disgust at the mere mention of the President.
Dude, your deep seated anger at Obama is gonna make for a long 4 years (or 8) for you. I wish you well in managing it. You have me concerned for your well being. Breathe man, it helps.

My post was in reference to the first one not GSG's I have no deep seated anger ,I just think that our state in this country demands leadership and well researched plans of which I have not seen as of yet. So far it has been the liberal wish list in action. Gee I thought we elected a president not a comic book hero.
P.S. Thanks for your concern but rest assured that I'm enjoying every breath, with Obama-man in office I realize it just might be my last.
Marvel can't print comic books? Who says we need a comic book? I like Spider-Man. Marvel is in business to sell comic books, and apparently they are doing that.
Our economy is in shambles and our leader is concerned about some fantasy book .
Where does it say that Obama is concerned about some "fantasy book"?

Great post. The comic sounds way out of my price range, maybe on the second, third, or fourth reprint, I can get one. I read the onion article, Obama sounds like my kind of communicator. Anyone who realizes that the battle of good verses evil is an ongoing struggle for balance, is my kind of people. We geeks, are truly the salt of the earth, a lifestyle choice. Embrace our geek-ness, for time stands still for no man, join us, or face us in mortal combat ripe with obscure terminology and references to sub-cultural media events based in print and syndicated television programs. You have been warned.

Hmmmm...don't quite see the connection :blink:
Oakspear, there is an acronym that is relevant in this situation:

In other words, You Have Been Trolled. WhiteDove is just trying to p*ss on any post concerning anything to do with Obama. Of course she is being ridiculous, and I'm sure she knows it. I also know she's not generally a troll, but is acting like one now. The best course of action is to just ignore posts like that, and maybe she will stop making ridiculous posts like that.

Of course they can but it is doubtful we need our president looking like some kind of comic book character. but i guess that is part of the change program to bring less dignity to the office.

Sounds like the "a cube has six sides" argument has gone on, Mister P-Mosh, I concur with you.
Someone please troll me. I promise to encourage you and if you don't mind, please encourage my ramblings in return. Thats the American Way. Marvel Comics does print quality reading material and this recent publication with our new president, Barak Obama, is proof of that.

Actually I was expressing my opinion of our pesident as a comic book character. I know we are making a change to a new low in the presidential office, I just thought the man might have some dignity.
Speaking of new lows
The first 14 days.......
Two oops three cabinet member nominees under scrutiny for tax evasion
Kenedy and Richardson withdraw their names
5 major newspapers today call for withdrawal of Daschle
Latest gallop poll 38% of the people approve of the stimulus plan
10% of the people actually think it will do any good at creating jobs.
What a record of change......
EDIT FOR LATE BREAKING EDITION
Obama's Choice for Chief Performance Officer Withdraws Name
Nancy Killefer, the management consultant and former Treasury official who had been picked by President Obama to serve as the country's chief performance officer, has withdrawn from consideration for the post, White House officials confirmed this morning.
In a two-paragraph resignation letter, Killefer indicated that controversy over failure to pay taxes by two other high-profile nominees of Obama's had convinced her to decline the new president's request to join his administration. Killefer had a tax lien placed on her house by the D.C. government in 2005 because she had not paid unemployment taxes for her household help.
This cabinet just keeps getting better every moment.....what confidence they instill. yep thats change you can believe in.
Edit for more breaking news
Daschle makes a dash...... has withdrawn from consideration for the post in Obamas cabinet
Well another one of Obamas tax evader friends bites the dust that's two in one day
Anybody wonder why one person happens to know so many terrorists,race haters,and tax evaders or do you really think he just met them all at a party?
Right now you can buy it at Borders books for 3.95 ,I just think it is cool to collect.
I probably will do that, Waterloo has a borders. But I am buying at least 8 copies to go along with my 8 copies of "The Death of Superman", I am thinking that in another decade or two they might be worth double what I paid for them.

I have a pretty good salsa recipe, here it is from memory so there may be some things slightly off:
Ingredients:
8oz (about 4) of fresh tomatillo tomatoes
3 garlic cloves (I think they are called cloves, the little things you break off of garlic)
2 canned chipotle en adobo peppers (two peppers, not two cans)
salt
1/4 cup water
1) Cut the tomatillos in half and roast them and the garlic on a non-stick skillet, about four minutes then flip them over for about four more minutes on medium high heat.
2) Throw the roasted tomatillos and garlic into a blender, along with the two chipotle peppers and 1/4 cup of water, and blend it into a puree.
3) Put it into a container, mix in salt to taste. If it's too thick, add more water.
This is sort of my standard salsa recipe for putting on steak. It's not really designed for chips as it is more like a hot sauce than a chunky pico de gallo type salsa. It is spicy, but really delicious and has a great tangy, smoky flavor.
I probably will do that, Waterloo has a borders. But I am buying at least 8 copies to go along with my 8 copies of "The Death of Superman", I am thinking that in another decade or two they might be worth double what I paid for them.
May I suggest when you do, a double death set would be a sure collectors item. The death of Superman and 12/3/09 the death of Obama-man's cabinet and stimulus bill together in one set.
Of course they can but it is doubtful we need our president looking like some kind of comic book character. but i guess that is part of the change program to bring less dignity to the office.
Less dignity? I don't think you could go any lower after the last two

Now we are talking...chipotles, yummy, and roasted tomatillos, I am there... I may in turn in the future put up a real Jamaican "jerk" recipe, for pork, chicken...an oh so, taste o the islands....

If I am hearing you right, this would be a death and crash and burn set...
I remember that Kennedy story. Assuming one could suspend one's believe enough to think that JFK could mimic anyone's voice other than those of his brothers , you just have to love Superman's last line!
An interesting sidebar. About fifteen years later, there was a SuperBOY story featuring JFK, becuae in "real" time, we were in the Carter (or Ford?) administration.
