I bet it’d be in the red…

The obama meter link is neat to some people as the talking dog is neat to some people…

NEATORAMA can’t make everyone happy, that’s not the point of this blog.

If you don’t like it then stop checking out the website, it’s that easy.

@Dave: My point was that the trend lately has been to give Obama a pass at every turn, and under very minimal scrutiny this tracker seems to be following along in lock-step. Too, too predictable.

Sorry, but I did assume that what you said was a form of hero-worship. There’s an awful lot of that going on lately, and the guy hasn’t done squat. And you won’t catch me quibbling without good reason. ;o)

And I don’t say his behavior affects all our lives as some kind of hero-worship. I hope you didn’t parse that as “his behavior affects everything about our lives.” I say it because his actions will have an impact. Disputing that simple assertion seems like quibbling for its own sake.

Saying that the President’s “behavior affects all our lives” is giving him a bit too much credit. His behavior affects your life in some instances, and others if you let it.

@ pazza
So “Interesting people are liberals”? It’d be more accurate to say that since you’re a liberal you find other liberals interesting. In case nobody’s mentioned it, the world doesn’t revolve around you. You’re not showing much maturity by thinking that everyone shares your tastes. Nor does the world revolve around Obama, much as most of the Neatorama post-ers would like us to believe.

No, I won’t join the chorus of whining. You all post about whatever pulls your pin; seems to me the goal of posts like this is to get the readers more engaged, and what shows that more than comments on a post? They’re just chasing numbers. And besides, like JMM said, the Obama stuff fits oh so very well with all the other fluff.

If you would like to share some ‘conservative’ based interesting information, I’d like to hear it.

I think Obama fits nicely on this blog. Dogs that say “I love you,” dancing cats, a four-year-old accordian player, lobsters held for ransom, shoes that turn into flip-flops, a Wall-E sandwich, crocheted valkyries, President Barack Obama.

If the owners of the blog think that President Obama belongs in that group, who are we to object?

Or keep moaning here – it’s funny.

I for one haven’t noticed excessive (or obviously biased) political posts on Neatorama. This link is genuinely neat and useful for keeping an eye on one who has promised us many things, whether you voted for him or not. To whomever questioned the usefulness of that, well… our politicians are supposed to be accountable to us. And even if we can’t unelect him, we can at least not re-elect him if he fails us.

This is just me very sad to see one of my favorite websites taken over by liberal politics. Sigghh…. I’ll go crawl back into my conservative hole now. Goodbye Neatorama, may your neatness rest in peace.

RE Thomas’ note of my poor writing skills: I probably should proof read more! Hopefully my point is still seen despite the grammatical flub.

There’s a difference between a political blog, and a blog that post political topics.
I think this was posted because it’s a new and interesting use for graphs, statistics and current events.

If this post was more of a rant about a current or previous political figure, then i think more people would sympathize with you.

Stories that happen to involve politicians but are simply fact-based do not cross this horrifying line so many seem so traumatized by. If you cannot abide any posts that mention anybody in political office, that is a simply a bizarre mental tic, not a justified reaction to an oppressive atmosphere of bias and political shilling on neatorama.

Exactly. But everyone is so dick-hard for Obama, suddenly the rules don’t matter. Come on buddy, reach down your pants and work on a semi-chub for Obama. I am on board!

Uhhhh!!!! UHHH!! more Obama posts, please! I tell you what, I feel like a pubescent boy again gazing at the bra and panty section of JC Penney.

Clearly you cannot. Clearly.

All nitpicking aside, my feelings on the matter are as follows. I don’t mind politics. I like a good mix of topics on Neatorama. I also have this thing called a scroll bar on the right of my screen. When I see something on Neatorama that doesn’t interest me, I SCROLL PAST IT. I don’t click to bitch about it. If you don’t like it, make a better blog. Good luck out there, scooter.

I agree, had McCain won, I would have said the same to all the people complaining about that.

Also for all the Obama whiners and complainers.
Other article blogs are just as all over the Obama craze as neatorama.
Suck it up and top being such babies.

It’s a tracker that keeps tabs on our President’s integrity. That is all.

The President is a very important figure. His behavior affects all our lives. Here is a post that mentions an interesting new gauge for measuring that behavior. Breathe.

That .. “stuff” that’s “going on in the US”, which is identical to the “stuff” which would be going on if any other “democrat” was running your country, as Obama’s policy is 1:1 the one of Hillary Cliton, isn’t SOCIALIST.

Just keep your uninformed, stupid American mouth shut. In fact your democratic policies are so right-wing that in most other countries, emigration waves would follow after handing over that amount of power to what we call, a fascist.

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME BITCHING, enjoy life!

keep it up neatorama.

It’s you and I that are the crazy ones for thinking there is too much politcal sh*t on neatorama. I gave up. I just decided to start jerkin’ my gherkin to everything that is Barrack Obama.

uhhhhhUHHH!!!!!!! wheww!….. *lights up a cigarette*

The crazy amount of politically related material is leading me to believe otherwise. Please neatorama, stop posting things that have a political bent to them. The majority of us are getting annoyed and fed up with it. I can’t speak for the majority of us, but I am tired of hearing/reading/seeing news and posts about Obama. I come here to try and get away from that, and here you are slappin his name and face up everywhere. Your readers don’t want to leave, but we starting to think our time can be wasted more to our liking someplace else.

I went to this “google.com” you speak of and changed my mind on what I wanted to read. Instead I did a search for “liberal orgy blog/Barrack Obama masturbation material.”

Needless to say I’m right back where I started here on neat-obama-rama.com! That darn feeling lucky button!

“Now that I’ve got that off my chest does anybody have a link for a good picture/video blog without an political agenda? If so PLEASE post it. Also something with interesting articles along the lines of The Bathroom Reader or Mental Floss? Thanks.”

Try ‘google.com’

Good luck!

“Some people actually DO think it is neat to be informed regarding politics and current affairs…”

2 things:
- “Neatorama is not a political blog” – I bet I’ve read this statement by neato-posters at least 20 times.
- If you stay “informed regarding politics” from a blog like neatorama.com, well.. do I really need to say more? You get it, right?

1 question:
- You said “I’ll be checking the Obamameter regularly”, right? Since you believe that information to be useful, what will you truly and honestly do with that information once you’ve gathered it? Get in the Deloren with Doc Brown, gun it to 88, and not vote for him this time?

I think the posters have been posting about what going on in the world. For example, posts about the election before, and now Obama because it’s inauguration month.

That being said…. I do prefer neatorama posts about wacky, fun, silly stuff, and not stuff about the news (whether politics, disaters, etc). There’s so many other sites that do that. It’s my opinion that neatorama would stay truer to itself to eschew such posts and stick to the mostly “neat”.

And cat videos fall into that category! (but so do many other things. )

there is, but to you Generation WE technotards it may be tedious, see there are these things called BOOKS, printed on paper, you READ them, now stay with me, its called H-I-S-T-O-R-Y

jesus, just get a room with the “head of state” dildo will ya

Thank you, Neatorama, for bringing this to my attention. I’ll be checking the Obamameter regularly.

links??

Really though, I’ve been reading neatorama for a couple years now and this has gone way past the point of absurdity. I know you couldn’t care less about my threats but I honestly think I’m done with neat-obama-rama. There’s nothing “neat” about posting useless crap about this dead horse every single day. It’s just flat out silly. If I wanted to wank off to Obama’s existence I would google-image tab his name.

Now that I’ve got that off my chest does anybody have a link for a good picture/video blog without an political agenda? If so PLEASE post it. Also something with interesting articles along the lines of The Bathroom Reader or Mental Floss? Thanks.
