Subject:Fw: Keep your feet off the desk!
Does this photo of President Obama in the Oval Office convey anything about his attitude and arrogance?
Would you speak with the Chief of Staff, your Chief Economics Adviser, your Senior Adviser, or anyone, with your feet up on the Resolute Desk –
a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880?
This arrogant, immature, self-centered man has no sense of honor, or simple decency.
While this posture is disrespectful in any culture, it is not appropriate in any executive setting. Further, in over half of the cultures of the world,
it is recognized not only as disrespectful, but as an extreme insult.
He thinks of himself as a king, not as a servant of the people, humbly occupying our White House for his term in office.
Electing him was an enormous mistake and will cost us in many ways, for generations.
IN GOD WE TRUST. BUT NOT "OBAMA".(Ripped from the pages of the new "Stars and Bars" version of the bible, no doubt)
The name(s) of the retarded individual(s) responsible for sending this to my brother-in-law will be withheld as to not further damage their already stellar, christian reputation. The response to this was "tasteful" in my opinion as if it were up to me, I probably would have added more than the aforementioned carnal verbs.
What's next? A video of him leaving the bathroom without washing his hands? GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK!!! This is just a sample of what I get to take a peak at almost on a daily basis. This was one of the worst/stupidest/irresponsible ones yet. Of course, I have more to say about this, but that would turn this into a long-ass post and I'm not fucking interested in that.
Now for my brother-in-law's response:

Real Photo, Inaccurate Description
Besides, showing soles of shoes is not "rude" in America - you know, western culture where we live. Now someone is trying to defend the customs in other parts of the world (Middle East, Thailand, Korea and some parts of Africa) which is not HALF THE WORLD.
Propping of feet might not be commonplace, but certainly inaccurate to say - NEVER done.
Just check out SNOPES that show George W. Bush and Gerald Ford doing the same damn thing!
Let's stick to the truth, if at all possible.
The name of my brother-in-law will be withheld as to not further embarrass him in regards to the actions taken by his "christian" kin.

That's all they've got.
Idiots, sonsabitches with too much time on their hands grasping at straws trying to find any little thing to bitch about Obama yet GW Bush trashed this country and they are OK with that.
Assholes.
I got a stupid-ass email yesterday, too. Mine claimed Obama had said he never met Blago, then showed several pictures of Obama and Blago together, while citing several "rules" of Chicago political insiders that sounded like something from The Godfather (I think one was "I don't Know Nothing!") It was a stupid piece of bullshit which I happily debunked (Obama never said he didn't know Blago, duh, they're politicians from Illinois) and forward my reply REPLY ALL to everyone it had been sent to.
Stupid worthless bullshit emails.
Great blog, Complaint Manager! Your straightforward, "call 'em like I see 'em" style cuts through the garden variety bullshit we're so often bombarded with these days!
By the way, the Ronald Reagan calendar givenout at CPAC has a big ol' sole of their patron saint's boot facing right into the camera. So there.
Will most definitely be back. A great read.
I also got this crap, picking on the victims of an earthquake to take a semi-swipe at Obama yesterday:

Nothing more pathetic than the desperate gasps of a failed regime, especially when it is drug out by the idiotic sheepul who actually BELIEVED those fucking bullshitters.
To quote teh Dumbya brats: YOU LOST. LET IT GO. MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE, OR BETTER YET, GET A LIFE IN THE FIRST FUCKING PLACE!!!!!!
Nothing more pathetic than sore losers. And I can betcha a dollar to a doughnut that if Barack Obama were 100% caucasian, this "desecration" bullshit, this "king" bullshit, this "ARROGANCE" bullshit wouldn't be in the spam. It's just another example of barely-closeted bigots saying, "We gotta put this uppity nigra back in his place!"
I was no big fan of Kerry's, I voted for him, but I knew that he didn't give a fuck. And the douchebag yankees who BARELY campaigned for him in the south were THE snottiest, most condescending little twits this side of Karl Closet-Case Rove. And YET, in all of their attack ads, all of their made-up bullshit, all of their smug, smirking assaults on Kerry & all democrats, they never ONCE used the word "ARROGANT" or "KING" or "DESECRATION" of the office or anything else.
Fuck, they didn't use that terminology when Clinton was getting head UNDER THAT VERY SAME DESK.
Rednecks come in every color, every demographic profile, every income level, every imaginable form. They think that "redneck" means "hardworking people," but to the rest of us, and the rest of the world, it means "xenophobic, proud-to-be-ignorant ASSHOLES."
Either Keith Olbermann or Rachel Maddow did a piece on this showing several past Presidents in the exact same position, including the exalted Ronnie RayGun and the fantasy Fuhrer himself, GW Reichmeister.
Well said, ASC. I also don't think I'd have gotten the horrible email on Haiti I referred to, which was very racist in nature, if it's writer wasn't trying to take a swipe at a non-Caucasian President. Sickening.
I got this stupid email today, too. What the hell? Are they so scared about healthcare that they are circulating ALL the stupid emails this week????
Thank you, SkyGirl.
I couldn't quite get myself to look at that anti-Haiti racism shit --- it would probably remind me far too much of the fucking IDIOTIC, ILLITERATE, IGNORANT-ASSED CRACKERS who fucking CHEERED at the television while MY people were DROWNING IN THE STREETS OF NEW ORLEANS.
Remember the phrase, "Katrina Fatigue"??? Yeah, that's cracker-speak for "Why should we help these lazy welfare-queen nigras anyway, ain't they all on WELFARE?!? Maybe now that they ain't got public housing anymore, maybe they'll have to GET JOBS!" That is EXACTLY how fucking IGNORANT that Murkins, LOUISIANIANS ESPECIALLY, were about the citizenry of New Orleans.
Called 'em "REFUGEES," like they got here from Haiti or Cuba on a RAFT. Like they weren't AMERICAN FUCKING CITIZENS.
Or, to quote Karl Closet-Case Rove, "THERE'S your solution to the 'public housing problem'!"
THAT fat ig'nant motherfucker prolly thinks of Hitler as a HERO.
So anybody who's slagging on the Haitians is prolly of the exact same mindset, and that'd just get my blood pressure up again. Well, I use the term, "mindset" loosely, as it assumes that these idiots have MINDS.
