“Ask Osama bin Laden and the 22 out of 30 top al-Qaeda leaders who’ve been taken off the field whether I engage in appeasement. Or whoever’s left out there. Ask them about that.” —
President BARACK OBAMA, in response to a reporter’s question during a briefing yesterday; Republicans had charged that the President’s foreign policy had amounted to nothing but “appeasement.”
This is the best variation on “frak you” EVER. And the full quote is better than what was floating around yesterday.
Also: Republicans should feel free to point to Iraq and eight years of chasing Osama bin Laden and FAILING — among other things — when talking about foreign fucking policy.

“But Jobs’s friend John Seeley Brown, who was on the board of Corning Glass in Upstate New York, told him that he should talk to that company’s young and dynamic CEO, Wendell Weeks. So he dialed the main Corning switchboard number and asked to be put through to Weeks. He got an assistant, who offered to pass along the message. “No, I’m Steve Jobs,” he replied. “Put me through.” The assistant refused. Jobs called Brown and complained that he had been subjected to “typical East Coast bullshit.” When Weeks heard that, he called the main Apple switchboard and asked to speak to Jobs. He was told to put his request in writing and send it in by fax. When Jobs was told what happened, he took a liking to Weeks and invited him to Cupertino.” — Have just finished the Steve Jobs autobiography, the above quote was a highlight
