Don't worry though, apparently, he doesn't understand the meaning of the word "emergency".
See, in the days after 9/11/01, Bush declared a state of National Emergency.
And kept it going for 7 more years. Apparently, he didn't know the meaning of the word either.
So finally, Obama get's into office, and well, Hope and Change and all that, so he... keeps it going for 3 more years. A few hours ago, he renewed the state of emergency for another year.
Zee Office of Fatherland Zecurity
" Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2012. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency that was declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.
BARACK OBAMA
THE WHITE HOUSE,
September 11, 2012."
So, until Osama Bin Laden and the hijackers are dead, opps, I mean, until no one feels fear in response to crimes or political actions, you can expect to live the rest of your life in a state of emergency.
What are you talking about? I don't live in fear. Oh wait, I live in fear that I won't ever get a job in this market. Other than that, my life hasn't changed with regards to a state of emergency.

My post that started this thread, or my post above the quoted post?
All of them! MWUAHAAHHAAAHAAH!!
No, sorry I'm just trying to add to the confusion.
I motion all thumbs be deposited in the national coffers.
Isn't that about on par with "Friends, countrymen, lend me your ears!" *Cary Elwes gets pelted by ears* "That's disgusting!"

Is a declair the opposite of an eclair?

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Eclair. (slobers)
Anyway, surely there is a pastry shop in Washington?I can confirm, there is in fact a pastry shop in the very building I work in.
Hi Shirley!
Is a declair the opposite of an eclair?
Or maybe a lack of eclairs. And perhaps that's the emergency.
