GOP: President cannot come within 500 feet of schools

[madmusic]

Citing a vast range of child protection laws, the GOP today introduced legislation banning the president from schools. The president or his words would not be allowed within 500 feet of any school, school bus stop or any other place where children congregate.

"Why not?" said GOP Chair Jim Greer. "We have laws against sexting. We should have laws against brainwashing our children."

One Democrat, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing the ongoing investigation of any possible crime, said, "The Republicans protest too much. The brainwashed protesting brainwashing?"

It is uncertain if the Democratically led congress will buckle and pass the law or if President Obama would capitulate and sign it. The anonymous Democratic insider said Obama may sign the legislation because he needs Republican votes on health care.

11. I'm not sure who you're calling "Dumbfuck" but my point was...

...that the GOP didn't mind this president<sic> coming within 500 feet of a school.

Their hypocrisy is showing...

[HopeHoops]

20. Oh, HIM of course! Not you!

By no means did I intend that! Sorry.

22. As Chick Hern who used to broadcast the LA Lakers' games used to say...

"No harm, no foul" :hi:

on edit: he also made famous the phrases: "air ball," "slam dunk" and my personal favorite: "Left to right (or 'right to left') across your radio dial!" as in "Jerry West grabs the rebound at takes it downcourt--left to right across your radio dial..." I listened to the Lakers' broadcast almost nightly (during the season) when I was in junior high."

18. elected officials not allowed near government buildings?

then who should run the government? who should be held accountable if government isn't serving the people?

who should take action if the taxpayers' dollars are used for unconstitutional purposes?

Republicans don't even realize that public officials are elected to responsibly control our government and enforce the law..not just piss on it!! :grr:

[Puzzler]

19. Fair enough. But just keep all GOP politicos, local, state and federal the same distance away.

[DireStrike]

21. "Obama may sign... because he needs republican votes"......

LOL. Well done.
