     MDGILES "nailed it"? you say this as if he is the only one who did.  I believe my answer was the same as to saving him.

My apologies. I quoted him because his was most recent, and neglected to note yours as well. Sorry. Yes, you nailed it as well.

Lefties, ya'll need to work on your sense of humor....acquire one.

This is an old joke, best I recall the first version I remember was Katrina and Bush....all the Libs thought it was hilarious then...

It's deplorable to joke about this subject, regardless of the identity of the person -- Bush or Obama. It's sick.

I'm sorry, Solar, but this is nothing short of despicable.

Exactly. Mdgiles NAILED it.

You could only save one and it's Bush and Hussein. Which do you choose?
Remember, a drowning man will take you with them, so you're risking your own life as well.

     Solar.....I as much as indicated that you probably wrote it as a way to elicit  responses(joke) .  Was not chiding you, was jerking your chain a bit as my own joke as to your writing this post.
      Come to think of it though, you still haven't gave us your answer.

I'm not going to answer that question, because both men's lives are equally valuable. God created both George Bush and Barack Obama. The foundation of our society is that the individual man - the child of God - is the touchstone of value. While I may FERVENTLY disagree with both men on certain issues, I will not stoop to the level of answering a sick hypothetical such as this.

Did the lefties not read the question? This is a photography question plain and simple, obviously.

Interesting. So if the choices were a child raping murderer or your own mother, your answer would still be that they are equally valuable? Get off your moral high horse and lighten up, nancy.

.... Can you really, for one second, equate the President of the United States with a child-raping murderer, and be morally serious in doing so?

I see, you'll let them both drown.
Keep in mind, this is an very old joke dating back to early 20th century. Sometimes a joke is nothing more than a joke, try not to over think it.

True, it's an old joke. Doesn't make it funny, or right.

       your answer does end up "surprising" me...as I thought it would be something else.  However, I think if by some symphony of chance you ended up at that very place with him....I think you would end up "surprising" yourself with the action you would actually take.

I have to admit...this thread is turning into a real hoot!!! 

Was it a joke? Yes.

In bad taste? Maybe

Do liberals have any respect for human life? No.

Does Obama? Based on his support for partial birth abortion and allowing aborted babies born alive to die I'd say no.

Is this bland compared to what liberals say every day? Absolutely.

Would we actually allow Obama to die? Of course not.

Would Liberals allow Bush to die? Quite a few of them.

No he wouldn't. He knows he would save the President as all of us would...

Which is why the qualifier "A moment to think about it".
Yes, I would let the bastard die, end of story!

I have saved more lives in my time on earth than most could ever dream of, race played no part it, it's just a core value thing.
But, if he were out of office, I probably would bail his ass out, but if it were to happen tomorrow, I would be saving more lives by letting his ass drown.
Country first!
