That, essentially makes the thread complete.
First, Gregg likely said yes because he saw the flash, the smoke and mirrors and the truly meteoric rise to power of this administration and thought to himself “well, I AM a politician, this IS an historic time, what the hell” Then got to the bottom of what Obama wanted to do, or more likely, Obama laid out some things for Gregg that we haven’t even heard yet, and he had second thoughts. Either way, the breakup is best BEFORE the marriage. Move on.
I posted this in another thread about the census, but it may be relevant here.
Don’t worry about it, CC. Sinaijon’s as dense as Shodan. Black hole, inside the event horizon dense.
My take on the nick-name hijack:
“Dubya” is to George W. Bush as “Barry” is to Barack Obama.
“Hussein” is to Barack Obama as “Cokehead” is to George W Bush.
I use “Cokehead” as a ferinstance … I don’t think the left ever settled on a nickname for President Bush which intimated that he was a terrorist.
What about Shrub? I always liked Shrub. Sort of in memory of Molly Ivins.
You and I had our differences over Hillary during the Primary, but I just have to applaud you for this – it totally rocks! 
I sit corrected.
Jr. it is, then.

Why don’t you all just go ahead and call him Zero. You know you want to. You’re already marked as freepers/freeper types. Might as well just have it out in the open.
You guys seem to be forgetting. . .
Gregg sought out this post. HE asked President Obama to consider him for the appointment!
Of course now he’s denying it like the weasle-ass piece of shit that he is. But throughout the entire process until he backed out like a coward, he never tried to “correct the record” as it were. Then it was ok that everyone had the impression that he was actually, you know, interested in the job enough to pursue it. But now, not so much. Prick.
Actually, that’s not true. I can’t find a cite because I read it in Barbara Bush’s memoir, but she said that the family never called him W at all, they called him Junior.
I acquiesce to your superior knowledge about the former president and his family. You may substitute “his country” for “his family” if you wish. He even appears on Wikipedia’s “W” disambiguation page.
And Jefferson got a blow job.
Well, if Wikipedia says that’s his nickname, then it must be true! 
Just thought you might want to get your facts straight. I don’t dispute that everyone else uses the W to differentiate himself from his father, for perfectly innocent reasons.
Guess what – everybody’s wrong about the ‘Dubya’ nickname!
His family didn’t give it to him.
The Democrats didn’t invent it as a pejorative.
HE GAVE HIMSELF THE DAMN NICKNAME!
Not to mention the fact that W. had a penchant for giving people nicknames. He even called visitors to “Prairie Chapel Ranch”, his exclusive western-themed Presidential vacation retreat in Crawford, Texas, “Dubya Ranch Hands.” Nicknames were not insults in his world, let alone that one.
This hijack is fucking retarded. Can we stop it now, please?
Contempt,
Shayna
Guess that means I wasn’t wrong.
It’s no more fucking retarded than the rest of this thread, so what’s the difference?
You should talk. This whole thread is retarded. Are you some sort of intellectual all of a sudden, with a discriminating taste for retardation?
Nah, too easy.
'Cause if you’re looking for some primo retardation, **Sinaijon **can hook you up. But just keep that on the DL, yo?
If you don’t, I will and you’re probably waaay better at it than I am. Please, I beg you, don’t hold back, my friend.
Ah, you misunderstood. See, I can definite hook you up with primo retardation. Its just that Shayna et. al aren’t looking for ‘primo’. See, if retardation where wine, Shayna would be sipping Thunderbird.
