The Obama in your head is not the real world Obama – when you conflate the two it confuses the rest of us who aren’t totally batshit insane.

How do you either DJ or ride a motorbike with that Pinocchio nose so long? [News story where Obama (no surprise to sane people) criticized Cuba’s human rights record to Raul Castro’s face.](http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-cuba-castro-idUSKCN0WN0HQ):rolleyes:

Did you feel the need to lie when the U.S. opened relations with communist Vietnam? Maybe you did, after all that was Clinton, another Democrat. IOKIARDI, Nixon in Red China.

What about the all the Republican presidents who have dealt with other Communist leaders who killed many millions more than Che or the Castos? What about those who supported right-wing dictators responsible for genocidal campaigns in Latin America?

And Obama’s president and there’s nothing you can do about it! 😃 I hope he plants an open mouthed kiss on Raul Castro, because I’d love to see you people rage into suicide.

FYI the misuse of “literally” goes way back and is now recognized as one of the meanings of the term:

[QUOTE=The Oxford English Dictionary]  
literally, adv. I.1.c. colloq. Used to indicate that some (freq. conventional) metaphorical or hyperbolical expression is to be taken in the strongest admissible sense: ‘virtually, as good as’; (also) ‘completely, utterly, absolutely’.  
[/QUOTE]

The earliest usage the OED provides is from 1769, but more than 100 years later was used by an obscure American writer.

[QUOTE=Mark Twain]  
And when the middle of the afternoon came, from being a poor poverty-stricken boy in the morning, Tom was literally rolling in wealth.

Not to mention all those converticle sofas.

Castro Convertibles was a fixture of NYC TV ads in the 1960s. I was surprised to find a Castro Convertible store down the street from me in Massachbusetts. It closed about a decade ago. The company evidently still exists, though – [http://www.castroconvertibles.com/](http://www.castroconvertibles.com/)
