RDA takes on anti-Obama wankers

This exchange is TOO GOOD to bury under one of my spammy Tweet-logs. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] lolmac  for bringing it to my attention, because I'd've missed it.

Anyhow, US Senator Boehner (Republican) walked out on President Obama (Democrat) during talks about reducing the deficit & raising the US debt ceiling (which BTW current Republican leaders voted 19 times to do during the presidency of Republican GW Bush). Here's Richard Dean Anderson's Twitter reaction and the wank that ensued.

@andersonrdean: OMyGod!! Who/What is John Boehner!? If there was ANY doubt b4, it's clear now: HE IS AN ASS!! And DANGEROUS! Aaahhhhhh...!!  

@dragondude_john: I think the bigger ass is. the guy who wants to spend more money on his little projects 4 us to pay 4. Share the wealth.  

@andersonrdean: Any Speaker of the House who won't return the Presidents' phone call (3 times!) is a threat to ALL of us. Rhetoric. BS. Aaahhhh!!  

@dragondude_john: I wouldn't return that jerk off's calls either.

@andersonrdean: The notion: Anyone who walks out on a meeting (Boehner, Cantor...) ostensibly has nothing more to say; they r void of substance.  

@tgkillerman (Ronnie Eubanks): Obama walked out of meeting earlier in the week dude  

@andersonrdean: He's the President. You have got to admit Obama has been extended virtually NO respect from Day 1. It is ludicrous.

@dragondude_john: The guys who wants to spend more money for us to pay 4 is the biggest waste of space. Good thing u make a good salary.  

@andersonrdean: I am unemployed.  

@PortlandPatti (Patti Nearing): Agree w U! believe Repb are holding us Americans hostage to get rid of Obama. They don't like hving a Black in office

@andersonrdean: THAT IS THE TRUTH. No matter how much they deny it, you have hit upon the truth.

@charitin_1 (Charo Munoz) : He didn't walk out. That was a lie Cantor told. That meeting was over!

@andersonrdean: There he goes... lying, again!

@tgkillerman: @gatecrazy You know sent several tweets to Mr. Anderson never got a reply

@andersonrdean: O, I've been watching very closely, both sides. I sense anger in your tweet tone: you must be a Republican...

Yup. I don't agree with a fair few things Obama has done (the good far outweighs the bad though), but RDA has called it like it is.

I'm not too fond of our current Prime Minister here, though I am not happy with the media only refering to her as 'Julia' whereas all the previous male leaders were refered to as 'Mr. Rudd', 'Mr. Howard' etc.

Whoa, they don't call her Ms. Gillard? I can't imagine Germans calling their Chancellor "Angela" or Brits calling Thatcher "Margaret" back in the day.

It's a lack of respect for a woman in the position from the old school media moguls still running the place I reckon. Our Governor General is a woman also, same thing 'Quentin', not 'Mrs. Bryce'.

Rupert Murdoch's empire is rather extensive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_News_Corporation#Australia).

Case in point. ;)

Our governor (R) is a woman, and she is generally called Governor Haley or Haley. But, there is a senator from Missouri, Claire McCaskill (D) who is called "Claire Bear" or "Air Claire" (didn't pay taxes on her plane). I think it varies.
