[flyingpig911]

Obama voted for "The bridge to nowhere" but not relief funds for new orleans.

I form my opinions on politics based on what I read in youtube comments.

On 5/23/07 Obama voted NO to $6.4 Billion Dollars for the Gulf States Hurricane relief efforts...The bill passed anyway..Mccain voted YES.

if a person makes a spectacle of ones self its not a favorable thing.the spectacel of gustav is not favorable.its fucking semantics.he could have said "that HORRIFYING,BLOOD CURDLING,DISGRACEFUL,SHITTY STORM."but he didnt.and he didnt have to.go listen to what stu shepard said about the DNC and wanting storms and flood etc.he wasnt too concerned about who might be endanger so long as they were not rePUBICans.turn about is fair play.

"Spectacular" means something that has the qualities of a spectacle--something fascinating to see. You take your eyes virtuously away from the natural disaster every time it's on TV, I'm sure. It's a spectacle. It's spectacular.

Fireworks displays are spectacular, the big fire that burned down the fireworks factor is not spectacular. The Titanic was spectacular, the sinking of the Titanic was not spectacular. So I guess to you all the destruction from Hurricane Katrina was spectacular.

And what does Obama say while he continues stumping on Sunday?

"It may not be as spectacular as a hurricane, but we've got a quiet storm sweeping through communities in America," he told a crowd estimated by the Calhoun County Sheriff's Office at about 15,000.

SPECTACULAR? He actually said that about s disaster? Doesn't sound to me like he steered too far away from that "pot shop" using the catastrophe.

go look up the definition of the word spectacular shit head.but im sure you'll interpret and embelish what you read if you can read.he's not saying anything favorable about the storm but im sure you will see it otherwise since you just want a reason to sling shit.

"Of the nature of a spectacle; impressive or sensational"

You don't use it in conjunction as an opposition to, and followed up by "but we've got a quiet storm sweeping through communities in America,". Get it?
