The Reviews Are In, and They Ain’t Purty [Hysterical Update]
By SusanUnPC on April 27, 2008 at 10:54 AM in Barack Obama, David Axelrod, Fox News, Typical white person, White People
Sory, i’m just a typical white hick (but thankfully not a “typical white man”). But it shor beats being a deluded liberal who thinks that Barack Obama is the Second Coming. Or believing his bull about the Iraq War (and his “re-created” 2002 speech), or that he’ll really change America, or that he’s going to do a single thing for the middle class, or that he scarcely knows terrorists like William Ayers or partying with Nadhmi Auchi (and those questions are just so unfair), and on and on. His interview with Fox News’s Chris Wallace today may begin to arrest the delusions about Obama.
[HYSTERICAL(ly) (funny) UPDATE: “Lefties Seething Over Obama on Fox.” An amusing snippet: “a Kos Kid swears not to vote for Obama, now that he has Fox cooties on him.”]
MyDD’s Jerome Armstrong levels Obama in his review of Mr. Hope’s answers. If there’s still a single sober person left at the “orange place,” they must be tearing their hair out.
Obama literally gave Hillary his middle finger last week, but today he proverbially gave the DKos/TPM/HuffPo/Code Pink/MoveOn communities BOTH of his middle fingers. Obama did another Jay-Z today to cater to the Fox News viewers, dusting all of those far-left groups off his shoulder, just as he attempted to dust off Hillary’s legitimate challenges. But, first, this specific section is for you faithful No Quarter readers:
A shorter Obama: The far left? That’s over there, and I’m willing to take them on.
OBAMA: …In terms of capital gains, I’ve suggested we might go back up to 20 because -
WALLACE: You have suggested 28.
OBAMA: Well, but what I’ve said is, I certainly would not raise it higher than it was under Ronald Reagan.
This is an Obama classic, he mentioned 28, then saw that Clinton wouldn’t go that high, so now he’s revisioning all of what he said to a part of what he said, and specifically a part of what he said that overrules all of what he said because… well, when he first said 28 he didn’t know 28 was higher than what it was under Reagan, or something like that… Anyway, getting Reagan’s name as the one he’s following for guidance on the tax code is brownies on Fox. …
As I said, that quote above was for you sane No Quarter readers. And you all recall that Charlie Gibson had to school Obama on capital gains taxes in that last ABC debate just before the Pennsylvania primary. (It’s no wonder he’s running from any more debates. It must have been humiliating to be caught not knowing or having studied the issue of capital gains taxes — no matter how smart or Ivy League educated you are.)
And, no matter how often you are being compared, embarrassingly, to Adlai Stevenson, George McGovern or Michael Dukakis …
… I’ll wager that any of those three former presidential nominees, even if they all did get crushed in the general election, could have answered that question far better than you, and wouldn’t have had to have capital gains explained to them by a TV anchor.
The next part is for the delusional left:
Obama is trying to separate himself from the most strident parts of his base, and he does this pretty effectively throughout the interview:
OBAMA: Well, I think there are a whole host of areas where Republicans in some cases may have a better idea.
WALLACE: Such as. Obama mentions deregulation of industry, charter schools, a new variation of merit pay.
WALLACE: But, Senator, if I may, I think one of the concerns that some people have is that you talk a good game about, let’s be post-partisan, let’s all come together — just a couple of quick things, and I don’t really want you to defend each one, I just want to speak to the larger issue…
OBAMA: No, look, I think this is fair. I would point out, though, for example, that when I voted for a tort reform measure that was fiercely opposed by the trial lawyers, I got attacked pretty hard from the left.
During the Roberts -
WALLACE: John Roberts, Supreme Court.
OBAMA: John Roberts nomination, although I voted against him, I strongly defended some of my colleagues who had voted for him on the Daily Kos, and was fiercely attacked as somebody who is, you know, caving in to Republicans on these fights. …
There’s much more in Jerome’s “Obama on Fox transcript,” including a link to the transcript.
My brief two cents:
Karl Rove’s analyses on Fox News have been pretty damn smart. Except when he insists that Obama is a far left liberal. He’s about as liberal as my cat is a dog, or Larry is for Obama.
The truly scary part is that Obama stands for, essentially, nothing.
Obama stands for Obama.
His entire campaign has been premised on creating a cult-like adoration of him as a transformational figure.
The issues be damned.
That worked incredibly well for a rather long time. As po’ Barry himself has complained, this campaign has gone on so long that babies have started walking and talking since he began running for president. True enough, Barry. Thing is, that’s a GOOD thing.
Because perhaps — just perhaps — there’s a shot that even the most deluded of your followers will finally see that your entire David-Axelrod-invented campaign is based on people transferring their own “aspirations” onto you as somehow able to fulfill their own fantasies.
When people fall for a candidate because it flatters their own vanity, it is just not, um, good for the country, let alone the world.
When even MoDo isn’t liking what she’s seein‘ — and she sees that your magic glitter has worn off — you’ve gotta worry, Barry.
This magic pony just isn’t the real deal.
Obamabots, it’s time to stop shopping in toy section of the store.
Did Obama say that The Republicans have better ideas on government regulations ???
WHOA!!!! Like what they did with the environment? The Bush Adm. undid most of the regulations trhe Clinton Adm. had put in place to protect the environment. In fact Bush’s first order of business in 2000 was to slash one of those same regulations.
Obama: Go tell that to Al Gore’s face.
If Obama thinks this then if he is the nominee we better vote McCain; at least we can blame a republican for doing what republicand do; like destroy the environment rathen than “a democrat”
Outrageous.
And don’t forget FEMA. Heck of a job, Georgie!
and how about all that great regulation that the repubs enacted to stop the mortgage market from exploding?
Or the ruination of the last vestiges of the deep-sea US Merchant Marine?
David-Axelrod-invented campaign - like Deval Patrick in Mass.
The reviews of that “campaign” are coming in and should be informative for an Obama presidency - all talk, no action. A failure.
“like Deval Patrick in Mass.
The reviews of that “campaign” are coming in and should be informative for an Obama presidency - all talk, no action. A failure.”
Among my first comments here at NO Quarter was about how the plagiarism charge was wrong. It should have been a CLONE LABEL. Obama was cloned from the same political DNA as Patrick and all we had to do was look at the results up there in MA. After all, Hillary won MA so there must’ve good reason since Kerry and Kennedy endorsed Obama. The voters up there aren’t stupid.
Susan: The clone label is a good way to describe the Patrick/Obama association.
Great post, Susan. And what about those Illinois senate records?
Stop-Obama.org
Obama’s Illinois State Senate record has troubled me from the start. I mean, who in the hell has political aspirations and then DESTROYS any evidence that can be produced to shore up his claims of “experience”?
What is Obama hiding? Talk about audacious. The war criminals in the WH don’t seem to have any trouble DESTROYING documents and evidence, either. Hmmmmm…
why obama is picking up where little lord pissy pants, Rove and Cheney have led him..they teach it he follow suit..when you have stuff to hide..destroy it..the others have to try to prove the impossible..same as Obama’s surrogate doing his dirty work for him..it is for plausable deniability…
we won’t be changing a damn thing..only continuing the New World Order..just a different leader..
of that i have no doubt.
fly
I suspect Bush was better versed in tax policy than obama. On his narrow personal interests he tends to know his stuff.
To be honest, I was a little suprised at his lack of understanding of Capital Gains. I mean, doesn’t the guy even own any stock?
I was listening to a program carried on our local PBS station. His answer on the capitial gains tax was classic liberal leftish response…This conservative commentator called it the economic theology of the left. Perhaps this was telling….No ?
If you read Business Week April 14th you’ll see he really doesn’t know a thing about taxes. When Cap Gains came up with Maria Baritromo he talked about raising the rate and she said to him that he’ll be hurting middle class investors as well. His reply was ridiculous in that he said that maybe they will reserve a special rate for middle class investors holding stock in 401ks. An obvious mistake made out of ignorance. Money pulled from 401ks does not receive cap gains treatment as its taxed as ordinary income because it is taken pre tax from payroll. He also said its a shame some people can’t write off mortgage interest and maybe he’ll enact some form of tax legislation to let them, never addressing the fact that most people write off more than they have via the standard deduction. Also I guess he had to amend his tax return because he tried to write off a political contribution as a charitable deduction.
Agree…I posted a comment the day after the debate that his answer would prove disturbing at The Wharton Shool of Business at Penn….I was just posing the commentary described by 2 conservatives saying his capital gains answer was what they termed Liberal Theology…
Their interpretation is that this stance despite common sense seems to appeal to liberals because it implies ecnomic justice which flies in the evidence of economic history….It is an ideological stance…I think it was perhaps revealing….I could be wrong….
Yeah, if by that you mean that, as a business man, it was in his interests to understand ALL of the costs of doing business. The genius of capitalism (which I fully expect is beyond your scope of understanding) is the implicit understanding that people are most highly motivated to improve their own personal situation. By allowing individuals to benefit from their own ingenuity,coupled with a political structure that protects private property, benefits ripple through society and improve countless lives. Unstated in your comment, but equally true, is that since Obama has never had to actually work or run a business, he would be relatively ignorant of both tax laws and the natural incentives of capitalism.
GWB was a lousy business man….Daddy’s friends had to continually bail out lil’ georgie…Saudis can be useful for that sort of thing….
big tent democrat, whom i typically very much enjoy, today claims that obama still retains media darling status and thinks the far left won’t leave either. with all due respect btd, yup they all will be leaving. the buxx kicking hasn’t started. there were ground rules put forth by the obama campaign before precious would even come on there you had better believe. he i am sure indicated he’d try a repub lite mode. i don’t see the typical viewers falling for the load of crxx.
if obama and his campaign are naive enough to think that one visit to faux will shut them up and make them suck up, they are bat shix crazy.
And where are you getting the idea that Obama and his campaign think that one visit to faux will shut anyone up??? why do you people keep making up this BS about what you THINK others are thinking?
I’ll tell you what I KNOW. Obama gave his word that he wouldn’t go on Fox News yet he did it anyway. Sounds like a very bad JUDGEMENT call to me. One of many, may I add…
It’s all about his content of character.
Ellen, you’ve been had. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but someone has to do it. Little Lord Obama only cares about himself. He doesn’t possess an authentic bone in his body. Just like his beloved “uncle” said: “He’s a politician. He speaks to his audience”…
ellen, frankly i don’t give a happy damn what your opinion is. it hurts seeing your hero has feet of clay. so take that bitter, ugly attitude over to obama central. got that!
Seems to me that NQ folks posting stuff from the right side of the dial are catching grief from Obama supporters, only to hear the opposite when THE CHOSEN ONE is using the fox “garlic press” and “being of two minds” depending on which mouth he speaking from.
Thanks for the laugh anyway Ellen. BTW, is it not BS it is BO.
And when asked about reaching across the aisle the first thing that he said was that states should be allowed to make laws aboutlate term abortion. Throw women under the bus.
Then he mentioned how he defended his Democratic colleagues who voted to confirm Roberts (because he really wanted to himself until told it might make him a less viable “liberal” candidate). Throw everybody who is not a rich white male or a corporation under the bus.
Ahh progressivism.
Progressivism or Libertarianism? I’m actually beginning to think they are one in the same.
Good ole Barry. All things to everybody and nothing to anybody.
All things to everybody and nothing to anybody. That is the essence of Senator Obama in one short sentence.
The thing about BABY-O is that he is a classic puppet….When it is claimed that he is a leftish puppet it is because his current puppeteers are well leftish….I don’t but any of his policies any more than I bought GWB’s idea of his being a COMPASSIONATE CONSERVATIVE. To me the most frightening thing about him as POTUS is that we really don’t know him…and as Sugar relates he has certainly gone to an awful lot of trouble to erase the paper trail….BABY-O is a politician of the expediant willing to say and do what ever it takes to achieve power….and to do exactly what with that power….

I would just LOVE to see another debate, mano a womano; and I think the womano would win big.
You forgot MoveOn.Org.
Barry flipped them the bird too.
Lol!
I will correct that slight.
Call me cynical…but I can see Markos and MoveOn telling BO he can do this so it helps position him better. I really don’t trust these people or BO’s campaign.
OTOH..don’t forget his Granny whom he also threw under the bus….but Rev. Wright is still his favorite old uncle!
Obama will retain media darling status and Clinton monster status until/if Obama is handed the nomination by the Dean/Brazile/Dem Elite cabal.
In the general, Obama will cleave to the right, and McCain to the left, but the loons from both camps (the hilarious “left” for Obama and the neocons/theocons for McCain will “understand”.
An incompetent all positions cypher vs a batshit nutty warmonger. Another trainwreck for America in the offing.
Thanks, Big Media. You’ll probably get the wars you covet.
well, as much as I hate Rev. Wright, I am going to have to quote him, “no…no..no.”
Obama will not get the nod. Obama is now quoting another character, the wicked witch
from the wizard of oz….”I’m melting….melting…”
Oh Emily - you hate Rev Wright - have you ever met him or been to his church? You are simply a hateful person as is everyone else on this blog - and it seems like you are proud of it.
I think I need a shower.
Actually Ellen, it is WE who need the shower. Your ignorance and lack of concern for TRUTH is fucking stunning. You’ve got some nerve projecting your “hatred” bullshit in regards to Wright. Give me a break.
Team Obama and his little minions such as yourself have created all of the chaos and turmoil within the party and then you preach your “hateful” diatribe? You are no different from the Bushbots who made a career out of projecting their bs onto everyone else. Honestly, after living the nightmare for 7+ years one would think you people would realize it isn’t working anymore.
Mr. Fizzle has lost his shizzle and it’s no wonder with whack-jobs like you backing him.
May i ask you Ellen..why are you here??????????? Other than to be an aggrivation..like a splinter in ones ass….you are beginning to become a puss-y boil!
You do not like anyone here, and yet you are compelled to post here..why??????????
Please i am sure someone at the orange house..you know the place they guy won’t let 9/11 be discussed ..and that is greek and not even a dang dem..i am sure he is calling your name..and missing your bullsheet.
You are missing your calling dear..
fly
ellen, shut the fuxx up! you are a a disgrace. we need to shower reading the garbage you write.
Honey you don’t need a shower, you need some cult deprogramming and some medication.
Oh yeah?! you think you are going to get one, eh? When the water is turned off and BO was to busy humping Rezko for cash, were the f**k do you think those people took showers in the middle of a chicago winter when bary lied about not knowing about their plight?
Ellen; who knows Ayers wife personally and by default Bill and Barry, is a misinformed kool-aid drinker. Do your homework.
Back to being a kite now…yikes…
Ehemmm……Ellen I found the videos posted at the new defending the faith blog (Truth about Trinity) all about THE CIA CONSPIRACY TO DESTROY AFRCAN AMERICANS WITH U.S. OFFICIAL GOVT. ISSUE CRACK to be particularly enlightening…..He is a disgrace and so is his #1 protege’ Barack Hussein Obama.
good points! i think it would be fun to email all these leftie bloggers who adore precious just what he is saying about them. ask for a response. i doubt we would get one, but just the thought of irritating them gives me a chuckle.
Wow.
I haven’t been able to stomach MoDo for months now–maybe she went back on the HRTs. Now if only Nora Ephron and Jane Smiley would do the same (hot flashes are a bitch, yall)
I don’t think the neo-left, the so-called “progressives” and those with CDS will abandon Obama. In fact, I think he”ll need to have them surgically removed. He’s their imaginary hip black friend, don’t forget. Ask any shrink what happens when you try to force a psychotic to give up his/her hallucinations….
I think maybe the mainstream is beginning to see that the “emperor” has no clothes (except for his 4 or 5 suits, that he patches up and wears) Yeah,right.
He’s an empty-headed poser, wasting our time.
i think a number of them already know what ole barry really is but haven’t received the marching orders from the dons yet.
And A-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l those $$$’s that could’ve done a wh-o-o-o-o-l-l-l-l-e lot for how many in need?
That’s what I think he’s trying to do — I think Barry’s beginning to realize that his cheerleaders might potentially do more harm than good. There are two problems with his surgical removal plan — 1) if he does successfully remove them, who’s he going to replace them with? He’s already pissed off large portions of the Democratic base. And 2) the type of surgery he’s attempting is a dangerous one — there’s always the risk the patient won’t survive the operation.
…”empty-headed poser”.
Great description!
The last debate and loss in PA was just too humiliating for Obama. He came off as a very weak man: My impression is MoDo doen’t like to be associated with “weak men”; kind of a non-challenging game for her….
Oh darn, this is just the same old politics, take my own words and use them against me!
When will you people finally understand that my words mean nothing, and therefore I am a different candidate, not your conventional candidate and no other country on earth can my story be told, and I become POTUS! Oh darn, I am in the USA right now aren’t I?
So all you church going, gun huggin, bitter folks just shut the fuck up and let me be Pwesident(spelling on purpose), because Axelrod said I am!
Where is my Michelle right now, these meanies are attacking me again, need some more race baiting to shut em up!
Obama ‘08 and NO MORE DEBATES!
Michelle is reading her Winnie Mandela handbook and organizing the Michelle Obama Soccer Club.
Oh, Fred, THAT was priceless!
Anyone watch NBC and ABC this morning with Tim and George?
Poor old Dean is still sort of freaking from the litte I have seen and Brazile is gray wig day, that only means supporting obama again claiming disgruntled Clinton supporters will all run to Obama in the fall again!
Didn’t get it all, I was at church, so missed the most of it! I was disapointed there too, cuz my Priest did no hip rotating, he did bring up chickens though, said sorry he wasn’t his usual today, had been sick the past few days, his chicken dinner kept coming back again and again!
agree with ya’ll.. but the article about BO’s Illinois state experience should say, “Springfield” not Syracuse..
State Capital of Illinois: Springfield.
Also, if one scratches the surface of BO’s Illinois career, it is very very very (did I say VERY) thin. His first campaign for State Senate? He basically hired a Harvard lawyer friend to come in and challenge the signatures on the petitions of his rivals. His first statewide election? against a carpet-bagging Alan Keyes..
Record as a Senator from Illinois? Zilch. I voted for the guy and I would have a hard time justifying a re-elect to SENATE let alone president vote.
Plus, he lied to the people of this state: he said he would fulfill his 6-year term in the senate.
All talk. No action.
In the interests of party solidarity and of keeping things positive I would like to point out that that The One is extremely good at:
1. complaining about minor inconveniences/discomforts, AND
2. making excuses.
And Alice Palmer’s been campaigning for Hillary - go figure.
You’re probably right, Shainzona. Nothings too big to sacrifice for the ‘movement.’ MoveOn has sold its soul to the Big Empty.
LIke Wright says, BO has to say these things because he’s a politician.
I don’t think there is a ‘far left’ in this country and if there is, it won’t be voting for a Democrat or a Republican. What there is, is an echo chamber (DKos, etc.) that came into being as a reaction to George W. Bush and as he fades into the sunset they needed something to hitch their wagon to….enter Obama.
There are also a fair number of idealists who wanted to fall in love. The early days of BO, starting with the ‘04 convention and building to a crescendo last year were tailor made for them. He began to diminish into a politician with the start of real-life elections when he had to try and garner the votes of Americans who weren’t in the market for a used car, so to speak.
The crash to earth began with the losses in Ohio and Texas and the start of the “revelations” (Wright, slumlords, call everyone a racist, etc). I’m sure that BO has his 28% just like Bush, who will stick with him no matter what. But I do wonder what the youthful idealists are going to think now that their ‘dream date’ is revealing himself as the Republican-lite he’s always been. Explains all the money he’s raised, though.
yeah, i have to wonder about ole kos. he is after all a former repub and sorta runs his site in a order marching formation like the repubs like. he was disillusioned with bush so now who is he going to be disillusioned with in order to build kos back. (which i don’t think will happen). kos went from being a very interesting blog with great front pagers to the pathetic crax it is today. none of the sane will go back. i think he and others will have to sorta manufacture outrage in order to have something to write about sorta like faux does. now isn’t that appealing.
I think Bush was kind of a cottage industry for people like Kos and Huffington and Lord knows the comedians are already getting nostalgic for him. Even Michael Moore, who had a career before Bush could never have reached the heights he did without such a rich vein of source material. (A documentary that grosses over $100 million and makes its director a star?? Wow!)
If I was a cynic, I’d say that these folks have rooting interest in McCain. If he’s in the WH they remain relevant, otherwise, not so much. One of those “things that make you go hmmm…”
agree with ya’ll..
btw: the article about BO’s Illinois state experience should say, “Springfield” not Syracuse..
State Capital of Illinois: Springfield.
Also, if one scratches the surface of BO’s Illinois career, it is very very very (did I say VERY) thin. His first campaign for State Senate?

Did Brazile really wear a gray wig?
Is that something like earth tones? Gravitas drag??
I thought it was a dead animal….Ooops….How very working class of me…
Road kill? That would be symbolic of an Obama presidency.
It looked like she was being molested by an old possum.
need photo of Donna, please. Too funny.
I notice Donna’s appearances on CNN are fewer and shorter these days.
I gues the “don’t hurt yourself” stuff boomerang’d
Doesn’t the fact that he won’t even show up to a debate without the MSM pundit crap make him a wimp? What is this “we have had enough debates” garbage I am hearing from Obamabots. What, you guys can’t even show UP? That is worse than take your ball and go home, that’s out and out cowardice. If he can’t handle a toe to toe debate with Hillary, how’s he going to fair against Putin? What a girlieman.
Does anyone know how the people at DailyObama are reacting to his Fox appearance? Have their heads collectively exploded, or are they furiously working to apply the WORM rules to this as well?
Like I said before, Dowd is hedging. She can’t afford to be completely wrong in this. She doesn’t have Judy Miller’s rich husband or influential friends
And you all recall that Charlie Gibson had to school Obama on capital gains taxes in that last ABC debate just before the Pennsylvania primary. (It’s no wonder he’s running from any more debates. It must have been humiliating to be caught not knowing or having studied the issue of capital gains taxes — no matter how smart or Ivy League educated you are
And Obama was complaining it took 45 minutes to get to the arena of how stupid he is on issues, he should be jumping for joy that it wasn’t all issues, and he’d have to be asking Charlie, George and even Hillary for understanding what Payroll tax increases mean that he is imposing also on every American!
Obama donor received a state grant
His letter on behalf of a table tennis company preceded the funding.
By Chuck Neubauer and Tom Hamburger
Los Angeles Times Staff Writers
April 27, 2008
WASHINGTON — After an unsuccessful campaign for Congress in 2000, Illinois state Sen. Barack Obama faced serious financial pressure: numerous debts, limited cash and a law practice he had neglected for a year. Help arrived in early 2001 from a significant new legal client — a longtime political supporter.
Chicago entrepreneur Robert Blackwell Jr. paid Obama an $8,000-a-month retainer to give legal advice to his growing technology firm, Electronic Knowledge Interchange. It allowed Obama to supplement his $58,000 part-time state Senate salary for over a year with regular payments from Blackwell’s firm that eventually totaled $112,000.
A few months after receiving his final payment from EKI, Obama sent a request on state Senate letterhead urging Illinois officials to provide a $50,000 tourism promotion grant to another Blackwell company, Killerspin.
Killerspin specializes in table tennis, running tournaments nationwide and selling its own line of equipment and apparel and DVD recordings of the competitions. With support from Obama, other state officials and an Obama aide who went to work part time for Killerspin, the company eventually obtained $320,000 in state grants between 2002 and 2004 to subsidize its tournaments.
Obama’s staff said the senator advocated only for the first year’s grant — which ended up being $20,000, not $50,000. The day after Obama wrote his letter urging the awarding of the state funds, Obama’s U.S. Senate campaign received a $1,000 donation from Blackwell.

well, i just read the transcript of obama’s interview with weenie wallace. what a joke, he had him on the hot sear with bill ayers and didnt press the issue. obama reverted back to his stock answear, ” i was only 6 or 7 years old then, and he’s basically just a guy in my neighborhood”…..i almost threw my cup at my tv ! chris wallace stinks. obama would not have gottten away with the ayers thing if fox would have given it to sean hannity. chris wallace also told all of the other talking heads to cool it talking about wright awhile back, i smell something bad with fox going on with this.
I saw him READ a speach in Indiana last week. He read his entire speech from a script. It was on the economy. He actually had to have his talking points written down word for word because, as with so many other important subjects, the guy hasn’t got a clue when it comes to substance.
What, no TelePrompters in Indiana?
It was a kind of whistle stop, town hall thang. He didn’t take his eyes off that text, let me tell you.
and how often does Hillary read her speeches??? She is a talking robot, and when she goes off script she sounds like a complete idiot-she can’t even tell a joke. a lot of politicians read speeches you know - and they usually don’t even write them. Obama is one of the few that has written his own big speeches - Hillary does NOT.
Ellen,
I have bridge for sale in NYC you might be interested in.
LOL pms…Perhaps condo development in the OKIEFENOKIEE (sp?)
hey ellen, are you really that dumb? that must be some koolaid you are drinking. get off your duff and go doe some research before popping off on here again. it is a well known fact that precious has a speech writer. i hope all the obama people are as poorly informed as you.
You know that things are getting bad for Obama when I’m standing the supermarket persuing the cover story of The Globe all about Michelle’s control freak ways. It was a nice comedic diversion from the primary. They say the campaign calls her “H-H” for “head honcho” and they joke that they wait each morning to see what side of the bed H-H told him get up on.
Hey, even my Sister, who was drinking the koolaid, told me she watched that Rev. Wright interview and laughed at how desperate it was to be trying to repackage that guy for OBama’s sake. We had a good laugh when we were discussing puppy names, and how much fun it would be to name it after Obama. “Obama pooped in the laundry room again”, etc. She even joked that the Miata in front of us at a stoplight, with the obama sticker, was fueled by koolaid. She is SO over her Obama-love affair.
I woke up on the wicked side of the bed today, apparently.
Do you really think that people weren’t saying the same things about Hillary? I like Michelle, I think it’s great that she’s a strong woman.
I happen to prefer lemonade to Kool-aid.
Ever read her thesis? I have. This is one angry black woman.
Yeah I read it….This woman whining about not feeling welcomed like she did’nt fit in…..Ask yourself….Could this woman fit in anywhere with such a large chip on her shoulder…The laws of physics would prevent that….
No.. the point was that the tabloids are starting to turn, and that kind of stuff in the checkout line gets seen by an awful lot of voters.
Has nothing to with “Michelle”, and everything to do with the mood of the Country regarding Obama.
