Pitt backs down on Obama backing down on Hoffa's comments

Well, that didn't take long. Will is dancing the Tepid Two-Step. Let's sing while he dances!

SELF-RECANTED EVENING
Tune: "Some Enchanted Evening"

Self-recanted evening,
When you see the flip-flops,
You may see where Pitt stops
Across the DUmmieland.
And somehow you know,
You know even then,
That sometime you'll see him
Recant once again.

Self-aggrandized weaving,
Bloviating windbag,
Going where the wind blows,
Not knowing where to stand.
He'll write to the left--
That's left to go right--
Will's so busy dancing,
He can't sleep at night.

Who can explain Pitt?
Who can tell you why?
Will gives two versions,
Neither one can fly.

Some fantastic FReeping!
Someone may be laughing,
You may hear the laughing
Among the DUFU fans.
And night after night,
When we go to bed,
That sound is our laughter--
Will Pitt's in our thread!

Once we have DUFUed
Will Pitt's swing and miss,
Then he'll discover
He can't recant this!

And so it goes. Willie says one thing, then he has to take it back a little later. Will Pitt's dance often goes like this: Say something looney-lib-tough, to score points with the DUmmies. Then when the Dims disappoint, Will the Shill, loyal party hack that he is, has to cover his tuchus with a spin move. Or vice versa. It's a tricky act, but Will has his steps so down by now that he can do them in a drunken stupor.

The latest example is the Hoffa contretemps. On Labor Day, as he was introducing Present Zero, Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa Jr. stirred up his union thugs to go after conservatives, saying: "Let's take these son-of-a-bitches out!"

Even Pitt could see that there would be calls for the White House to distance themselves from Hoffa's violent rhetoric. But Pitt, in high DUdgeon and in solidarity with his union brothers, swore he was going to be sick if there was an apology, here in this THREAD, "If Obama backs down in the face of this Hoffa thing, I am going to lose my f***ing mind." (PJ documented this much of the story in last night's DUFU.)

Well, guess what? Obama DID back down and issue an apology, as we see in this THREAD, "Mr. Pitt, you better sit down: WH backs away from Hoffa comments."

But then PITT backs down on his losing his f***ing mind and getting sick! Says Obama didn't really "back down," he only "backed off." Oh, it's yet another Pittian self-recanted evening! Hee! Hee!

So let us now watch Wee Willie do the Tepid Two-Step, in Red-Faced Red, while the commentary of your humble guest correspondent, the wag tailoring the doggerel, Charles Henrickson, looking forward to celebrating Wee Willie's 40th birthday this November, is in the [brackets]:

If an apology is issued, I'm going to be sick.

[And lose your f***ing mind, too. Don't forget that part, Will. But, no worries, I'm SURE your Progressive President would NEVER back down on taking the fight to the teabaggers!]

Seems like you are trolling for "outrage recs" to reach greatest page, Will.

[You know him well, I see. Yes, it's always all about Will.]

Well, Will... looks like Commander Compromise capitulated again.

[Wha--WHAA??]

That room is is still open, but there's another influx of toasted progressives that just came in here to Happyland Home for the Politically Insane. Better hurry! Do you want to try to drive here yourself, or do you want a ride in the Big White Van?

[DUmmie Zorra invites Will to a room next to his at Happyland, now that Pitt will be losing his f***ing mind.]

read it and weep

[Read WHAT?? What are you talking about??]

Mr. Pitt, you better sit down: WH backs away from Hoffa comments

[NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!]

Moving quickly to distance himself and President Obama from Hoffa’s controversial comments at a Labor Day rally, Carney said that Hoffa “speaks for himself, he speaks for the labor movement, the AFL-CIO.”

[Hee! Hee! Obama's Carney barker even gets Hoffa's union wrong!]

[So as not to have to say too much about what he promised to do if Obama backs down, Will Pitt simply posts a picture response:]



wish i could buy you a beer today

[Bottomless Pitt will need more than one beer to drown his sorrows, DUmmie kpete.]

The (facepalm) is directed at muffing his union affiliation. . . .

[Yeah, right, Will. It was just a little slip of the tongue on the name of the union. Pitt begins his backpedaling.]

And I never said I'd freak out over an apology. I said "back down."

[No, Will, you DID say "apology." AND "back down." And it sounds like Obama did both!]

This isn't big, but it's definitely backing off. . . .

[OK! It was just a "backing off"! Not a "backing down." Whew! Will was worried he might have to follow through with his promise and get sick and lose his f***ing mind.]

blowing Hoffa's union affiliation is just icing on the damned cake.

[OK, Will backed down on Obama's backing down, so now he doesn't have to be TOO angry at Obama and lose his loyal party hack status. But at the same time he also has to quickly do a reverse move and sound looney-lib-tough again, to satisfy the DUmmie crowd--only, make it just a minor point, about Carney using the wrong union label. See? Will's got this Tepid Two-Step down pat!]

[The DUmmies comment . . .]

Read between the f***ing lines, people.

[On Obama's backing down or Pitt's?]

I have no words for the stupidity of this piss pot Carney. yes this is what we have as the WH Press Sec. A piss pot know nothing jerk.

[Carney needs to get himself a teleprompter, then he wouldn't make such stupid statements. Hey, better yet, Obama needs to get himself . . . a new press secretary! And I know just the man! He's a unionized Communications Worker. Journalist, international best-selling author. Even served as a press secretary (for Kookcinich) for a few minutes once. Yes, that's right! Will the Shill! C'mon Obama, take on Piss Pot PITT for this press post!]

I apologize for ever having supported Obama.

[Are you "backing down," "backing off," or "backing away"?]

I flog myself!

[Yes, we know that, benburch. But do you apologize for supporting Obama?]

Should I even pretend to be surprised?

[This is a PITT thread, Know-it-all Nadin! Go away! You can't hog ALL the DUFUs!]

The hate for Obama from parts of the perpetually disgruntled left has jumped about 5 sharks at this point.

[Obama-hate has jumped the snark.]

pointing out the obvious truth that Hoffa doesn't speak for the President pretty much dodges the real issue, namely, whether the President endorses Hoffa's remarks. Quite arguably, it even suggests that the president does not approve of the remarks. But at a minimum, it is wimpy and weasely.

[You get the Kewpie Doll, DUmmie Vattel! Something which Wimpy, Weasely, Wee Willie Pitt could NOT win, what with him doing the Tepid Two-Step.]

Where did they find this guy [Carney]? He's been a terrible Press Sec.

[PITT! PITT! PITT! PITT . . .]
