Obama gave himself a B+ early in his presidency. Now he's grading himself an incomplete. It's been a long time since I've been to school, but is going from a b+ to incomplete moving forward? Maybe our local "educator" could explain this to me.

I heard an interview yesterday with the mayor of New Orleans regarding the hurricane and recovery. He used the word "forward" about 15 times in the interview.
"As a nation we need to 'lean forward' to solve problems like Hurricane recovery" and "lean forward" to prepare for these storms and "lean forward" to save more lives.
He's gotten the Obama memo on "forward".

Well, they don't want to look backward at all the nasty things they had to say about President Bush when Hurrican Katrina passed through, since Mr. Obama's response before and after this one are little different.

Forward....
Wonder if Bill Clinton feels as if he is moving forward.
Four years ago he makes the comment about Obama carrying his luggage..... Tonight he gets to 'pack' water for Obama.

As Wheels said (and you ignored) - you mean like saying Obama wasn't qualified to carry Clinton's luggage? Not THAT's a comment I can support.

It's not surprising that he uses this word so often. When used in a political context "forward" is a Marxist slogan. It's in the name of over half of the Marxist/Socialist newspapers in the world. Political parties of this of this persuasion in countries everywhere have the word in their name. Those old oddly colored Marx/Lenin posters where they're looking off in the distance, the Russian word above them is forward. Don't take my word for it. Google it!

Given that we've already had four years with which to judge his abilities, the slogan out to be 'forewarned!'.

Sorry, that was supposed to be 'ought to be', not out to be...

The DNC is trying to bus people in to make things look busy. Would that we were so easily fooled.
