What is it they see in him?
By SusanUnPC on May 13, 2008 at 9:52 AM in Barack Obama, Obamedia
What is this, “Female Journalists Gone Wild?!!?”
“The clip of female journalists on a plane moaning as they watch Barack Obama talking on a cell phone was actually filed under ‘breaking news video’ on the CNN website with the caption, ‘Obama in jeans: Sen. Barack Obama surprises the press corps by wearing jeans‘,” reports Ms. Malkin.
Now, the video’s on YouTube. And it really should have a content warning advising viewers to watch it only on a completely empty stomach. Several members of the press corps yell at an agent to “sit down” because she’s obstructing their view. They giggle and sigh “You’re killing us” as he straddles across a row of seats and they furiously click away on their cameras.
Barack Obama is sexy?
Who knew?
NOT ME!
Now, there are a few men around in the political world who are sexy. Russ Feingold has done it to me a couple times. Chuck Hagel for sure!
How about Hillary’s Howard Wolfson?! Woah! Now there’s a man.
But that milquetoast Obama?
Especially since … oh never mind … never mind … don’t ask ….
Michelle Obama needs to learn how to run her own house before angling for the White House. I guess hubby Obama is bored with Michelle.
This has nothing to do with Ms. Malkin. It has everything to do with a gaggle of giddy female journalists acting like teenagers over a man that they are SUPPOSED to be reporting about objectively.
I know. Michelle Obama needs to learn to run her own house. Daddy is looking for some free press at Michelle’s expense.
I think Michelle Obama spoke too soon. She is married to a Poser (in the true sense) and a flirt. I wonder if he told them that his cell phone was vibrating before answering.
Smarmy.
I think the term “journalist” needs to be completely revised. Can you name me a pundit who is actually a “journalist?” Christianne Amanpour. Anyone else? Very few and far between. That’s why we have so much disinformation and lack of information, and kids swooning. The ultimate dumbing down of America. And they think the working class is “uneducated.”
Sad state of affairs.
should someone supporting Hillary make a comment like that?
“Michelle Obama needs to learn how to run her own house before angling for the White House. I guess hubby Obama is bored with Michelle.”
Yes, for Michelle claims only she can run her house and the White House. Now we see that Michelle cannot run her own house.
Point is Hillary can’t keep her husband under control and yet you are criticizing Obama’s wife, not even Obama himself, for the same thing. Yep makes sense to me.
Wow, Bill should be on a leash?
You think like that?
Oh, yeah, Obama.
Glad you don’t run a war or troll or anything, people might think you’re stupid, and you don’t know what you’re doing, an illiterate skunk, with a teeny, tiny…brain.
Michelle is the one who made the statement, and I believe others are holding her to that standard. Her husband is a philanderer, and Michelle cannot control him. Those are Michelle’s standards, and many have decided she is unfit for First Lady, for she cannot control “her own house.” After all, it was michelle obama who said, “if you can’t run your own house, you can’t run the white house.”
so how is she saying she can’t run HER own house?? You know that her husband is a philanderer? Or are you going by this garbage that keeps popping up on this site from Larry and Susan - or maybe that upstanding citizen Larry Sinclair? Tell me how you know all this about the Obama family?
Are PENCILS…..SEXY….metaphorically speaking of course….chuckle…NO
Where did these women go to journalism school? I don’t think acting like a dog in heat is what they teach these days. Disgusting!
J School has definitely lowered it’s expectations.
Ugh. I don’t even know what to say about that. It reminds me of the way the press corp swooned over Dubya. Anybody remember Alexandra Pelosi?
Wow! really! This is I want to have a
beerwine (and more) with him all over again and from the creative class, no less. People are dying in wars, coming home crippled and brain dead, economy is in the doldrums but what do we have these people reporting? Susan, I really don’t know what to make of this. Empty Brains for the Empty Suit. That’s it.Well, considering most young girls today would rather be on a “Girls Gone Wild” video, admire Paris Hilton, and gave up Barbie for the Bratz Babies. It’s not hard to understand their attraction to Barky. All style, no substance. Frankly, I like men who aren’t afraid to take me on in a debate…then take me in the bedroom.
Obama will not debate.
The women didn’t realize he was trying to turn on the guys, not them. They’re wasting their time with this guy.
Yeah, did you see Sullivan, Wolfe, Ogreman, Tweety, Timmeh, Alter, Fineman drooling? (I am sure I left a few out).
Elaine Bennis knows the name of the only sexy person even close to the world of politics.
It’s a real shame that he’s dead.
John F. Kennedy JOUNYAAAAHHHH.
I’ll name two VERY sexy men that are pretty close to politics.
Wes Clark and Joe Wilson
(I also kind of think Chuck Hagel is sexy)
jmo
EMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm. Wes Clark. (heavy sigh) did you ever see the photo of him in his pool? Rock hard. I actually had the great pleasure of nearly knocking him over at a gym once. Getting up off the lying leg curl, I about took him out. I grabbed him and he grabbed me to steady each other. He was such a gentleman, he apoligized. I just stood there staring into his eyes, babbling like a complete idiot.
Wes has beautiful eyes. Very hypnotic.
Oh, Wes Clark! Now HE is sexy. A man with a great mind, leadership skills and a great physique! I do hope Hillary chooses him as her VP.
All I can say about Barry is PEEEE-UUUUUU. I just about lost my lunch! I’ll bet he has a secret wish to wear a tight flight suit just like Dubya did. EEEWWWW!
Barry is definitely out of touch with Montana values.
heehee, no but my good friend sent me this pic of WES a long while back - I still have it on my MY SPACE page at the bottom.
He is the one that (out of respect) got me to start actually paying attention to everything HILLARY! Along with my family.
Thank you, Dawnelle, for sharing that pic of Wes—now there’s a real hunk! I’m going to keep that on my bookmark bar to help quell the nausea that I feel whenever I see a photo of BO!
You’ve got the same taste in men as me. Wes Clark, Joe Wilson, and, yes, Chuck Hagel—–sweeeeeet! Mmmmm! Obama turns me off, in a similar way as Bush did—it’s the arrogance and flaunting of what? Nothing really. That’s what turns me off in a man—trying to flaunt something that they don’t really have. Wes Clark, Joe Wilson, and Chuck Hagel, do really have It, but they don’t strut.
I recall a piece that described the press corps which travels with the candidates as being a bit less than real journalists. That was the problem when Obama had to actually talk to the real press regarding Rezko and got so upset he walked out after 7 questions. Two different journalistic “animal” types, apparently.
Frankly, some of the citizen journalists, like Fowler, who traveled with him and broke the “bitter” story have more credibility.
One of the most troublesome aspects of Obama is how he controls and avoids the press. Transparent?
He’s the least transparent of the 3 remaining candidates.
That’s scary, in a way.
As for sexy? Guess that’s a case of to each his own. He’s tall. That counts a lot in some people eyes.
“being a bit less than real journalists.”
Yeah I have two nieces that love barky because Rory Gilmore is part of barkys traveling press corp.
NIKE NIKE and more NIKE
That is the problem: out of touch journalists are training the American public to find his attractive. And future Presidents do not place their genitalia on display for the press corps.
He is unelectable.
and we are supposed to tune them in for coverage? ugh!
He was posing for Chris Matthews, who was feeling a chill run up his leg.
Notice the gratuitous straddle across the aisle. I guess running for President has its perquisites.
No, he actually did it for Anderson Cooper and Donnie McClurkin, who is ready for another gospel tour/gay bashing tour in SC with his boy/bitch Barack.
AND he seems to be egging them on. Guess that’s how he keeps from being too bored. He’d better hope Michelle Nobody’s Belle doesn’t get wind of this.
I quit watching news coverage since the Indiana and North Carolina race. It’s a waste of time. They’ve already crowned Obama and the DNC are stupid enough to go along. The guys who supported Bush, the war in Iraq, defending Bush for illegal phone tapping…they are the ones supporting Obama….and the Obamabots follow along like sheep to the slaughter.
OBamabotland on Obama’s blog are all celebrating Obama’s win, he’s the nominee and they are all laughing at Hillary wasting her time in WV and KY. Of course, the SD’s are going along for the ride, backing the jackass leading the pack.
I don’t get it, he looks like an AA Jerry Lewis (when he was young)to me.
A darker version of Alfred E Neuman from the Mad Magazine cover.
GW did a great impression of him for the last 8 yrs. Maybe it’s a trend.
blechhhhhhh!
Aw Strawberry, you hit it on the head.
Gawd, Obama is so not sexy in a Jerry Lewis, big ears, gawky sort of way. ewwww.
The Nutty Professor?
Boy, they can pick ‘em…
LOL
Jerry Lewis is a much better actor and has better table manners….
And smarter, too…
Oh, too funny!!
You have got to be kidding me. No journalistic integrity. Shameful. No wonder I stopped watching news (except FOX - and I can’t believe I am saying that) right after Super Tuesday. And this is further proof of why I don’t watch.
The only news is faux news. Yeah, no MSM for me. I’m glad to see that people in WV know the difference between media pandering and the real issues.
OT - Donna B was sedated last night. She didn’t go ballistic last night. Guess she couldn’t come up with enough spin to explain the 2:1 deficit against O’baby.
The women giggling is one thing while snapping the shots, but here is Obama making a twirl showing off his butt in his jeans and the putting his foot up on the seat arm as if saying take a good look ladies here it is….geez this makes me sick, this has to be the most disgusting display by a candidate no one can say Obama was not aware of the ladies gawking at him not by his immediate reaction.
Yeah, he was definitely mugging for the cameras. Enjoying the rock star feeling I guess. He doesn’t realize that it’s a stupid thing to do — it will be more fodder for the GOP to paint him as the “scary black man out to get the white wimmen.” No wonder Malkin (racist GOP hack that she is) is pushing it.
It’s a stupid mistake that screams inexperience.
URGENT
Internet cut in WV. I am at the Library. calble internet main trunk lines cut in WV. I just talked to Suddenlink and they confirmed that inernet has been cut all over their coverage area. Contact HRC. All people OUTSIDE of WV calling OR and KY switch to WV.
Please post to TM and others.This is Chicago politics. They used to just cut trunk lines to phone banks. This is worse.
Please keep us posted. Do you know what happened?
Are you serious?
Please tell us more.
This guy is so up to no good. First takeover of Dem Party, then takeover of country?
A I just saw the video. All I can say is “eeoeooeew”.
August304…Welcome to (FLGUAMITEXHIOANA)….OTHERWISE KNOWN AS STATES THAT OBAMA FUCKED IN THE PRIMARIES….I SAY WE SECEED AND FORM OUR OWN COUNTRY….GOOD LUCK…..
yeah, and the obama campaign caused the quake in china and the cyclone in burma, too. bastards!
He look likes Curious George to me. The size of those ears! And the smugness. I just don’t get the appeal. He looks like a little boy whose britches are way too big for him. Immature, self-centered, and massively insecure. He’s the type of man that charms and lies to get what he wants, then discards people like so much unnecessary flotsam when they have outlived their usefulness to him. All those women who have voted and swooned for him are gonna be on the rebound soon, when their boy is brought down to size by the Republicans. Therapists will be busy…
If anybody should be upset is Michelle seeing that her hubby is egging on the lusty journalists.
And it’s the other men he’s after, bait.
Does this Obama an oil twink?
It’s all part of their plan to elect that *#**!*.
Disgusting! It’s to get the women’s vote since they are seeing how women are going for Hillary. So they try to appeal to our inner teenager. It’s all a setup - and a big insult to our intelligence. They assume we are stupid and they can manipulate us.
I am posting this wherever I can. We need action. We need Hillary to run on another ticket if they deny us/her the nomination. I just wrote two long posts on this topic on West V. Open Thread. Please give feedback. Do you think it is a bad idea, or possible? It would be good to at least discuss the possibility since Dem Party has thrown us away.
These are the same networks who sold us the Iraq war. I wonder if the innocents in Iraq were wearing their Calvin Kleins when CNN was live broadcasting “shock and awe.” They are despicable. One more bill of goods being beamed into American households like a can of beans.
I have never been so disgusted by what passes for “news.”
I’m not ready for a president that gives crotch shots to female reporters. It was obvious he knew what all that was about.. there was no reason for him to straddle the seats like that and do the twirl.
If those were male journalists and a female candidate, they’d all be suspended. What a bunch of twittering little schoolgirls. God forbid they treat a candidate objectively and report on things that are.. you know.. IMPORTANT.. like the issues.
This should be a wake up call to REAL journalists as to why Obama has been getting a free pass in the media. Nedra Pickler of AP is one that travels with him.. and she’s one of the worst. That’s probably her cackling.. nauseating.
this really renders him unelectable. i just wonder what happens when none of the cameras are rolling.
Obama, like Bush, is killing his host, big oil.
So, is that a bad thing, really, his election?
It would be better for the American people if Clinton were elected, big oil can’t run shit, I would say on the ropes, really, of one were to look at them as financing a war, also.
So, they put in another d0ofy p0p, and further down the toilet they go.
Remember all those who said Viet Nam could have been won if the US had just stayed in, and used more force?
Well, that was wrong, they were wrong, but that’s how oil thinks, ie if we use more force, we can win, if we just keep the war going, buy more weapons we can win.
Like the Soviets, in Afghanistan.
So, bleed them to death.
And thank you to a “Sir Michael,” for the following advice:
“Kill the host.”
Well now, THAT was good for my diet. Couldn’t eat anything onna BET after THAT! To bad the journHOs don’t realize ol obamalamadingdong can’t WAIT fer the campaign to end so he can get back on the downlow!

I wonder if he was speaking to Michelle Obama when he was waving his crotch in front of the women in coach.
This is beyond disgusting. Obama is not the least bit attractive. I don’t know what is more appauling, Obama’s behavior or the drooling actions of those useless women who falsely call themselves journalists.
How completely disgusting.
He was speaking to Michelle Obama when he was waving his crotch in front of the women in coach, he was telling her white women want me so make sure you can keep your house in order, or Hillary may end up having the last laugh.
maybe that explains why michelle obama had plastic surgery.
Its pretty obvious she had some work done when you compare her earlier photos(especially that hideous shot of her at dinner) with her today.
Its just too bad she didn’t do something about that horrific personality of her’s that makes her a ogress regardless of her looks.
And they say Hillary will do anything to get elected.
Barack Obama twirls around like a little girl to wave his ass at the press corpse. “Does My Butt Look Big In These Pants?” LOL, no Barack, it’s your EGO that’s bursting your seams.
This November defeat is going to be tough for him. He obviously thinks he’s hot shit.
I just hope everyone understands that this renders him unelectable.
just this?
and why would you think that?
The younger generations will LOVE IT!
ack!
These are the women entrusted with a serious job but acting like school girls giggling away, these are the women who give other women a bad rap. This is one reason why men and people in general don’t take us seriously; this is why we are second class in most everything. You may say, oh they are just having a little laugh. Not quite. Symbolism is important to any movement, even that of gender equality.
WTF? If this wasn’t such an important election, I probably could laugh at this. I find it sickening. He’s willing to sink to any level.
Ha! Michelle is not going to like that…her mind will run wild…what’s going on here, all these women like him…why did my husband show off his crotch in jeans…what’s going on here….is he now in the mile high club?…wait a second…who are those women at the rallies….I saw the way that woman smiled at Barack when he shook her hand….omg….that lady laughs at Obama’s jokes too much…..why is Obama standing so close to that woman…Obama girl needs to go away….what is happening….I’m so ugly and such a fool.
I hear the University of Chicago Hospitals has a large cosmetic surgery department. Perhaps it is time to get the knife out again.
THERE IS NOT A SURGEON ALIVE WHO CAN DO ANYTHING WITH MEEEEECHEELE’S PERPETUAL SCOWL….SHE BETTER GO TO FRANCE AND GET A FULL FACIAL TRANSPLANT….
Obama is ugly. No .. make that FUGLY. Seriously.
A good looking black man is Will Smith .. not Obama.
Those ‘journalists’ must have been smoking hope-ium
if they thought he was good looking.
Oh .. and him kicking up his leg and letting his man-parts dangle in front of them was VILE. VILE. VILE.
He just rendered himself unelectable. And imagine how his daughters must feel knowing that their father placed his crotch on display for the entire world to see.
If BO is not willing to debate Sen Clinton but is willing to bebate Sen McCain and is not the Dem nominee, that should be a red flag seen for miles.
I suggest that if Obama is to make appeance in Florida and Michigan that he be shown the door promptly and loudly.
Takin it to the streets.
A good looking black man? Harold Ford!!
truthteller
You said it, he WON’T DEBATE. He’s afraid of her. He can’t even face WV because he’s such a wimp he can only go where he is fawned over. I can not stand his arrogance and immaturity.
OMG. This guy, and I use the term loosely, in the White House? I mean JFK was sexy and yeah he was a womanizer but he knew how to behave in public. Even Bill Clinton wouldn’t behave this way. This is terrible and embarrassing.
Obama is a pig.
Yo, Obama’s a GIRL. That’s all it is. Remember David Cassidy? It’s teen-beat stuff. Someone once observed that the “boys” that teens go crazy for
in the star-glitz are 13 year old girls themselves.
They are. It’s obvious.
Obama is as queer as they come.
Obama appears to homophobic women whose sexuality is completely unkown to them. They want to sleep with girls, they just don’t know how.
So take a queen like Obama who is in boy clothing and voile, sweet released sexual freedom.
Really pathetic.
I DON’T WANT TO READ YOUR CRAZY, PARANOID, HOMOPHOBIC COMMENTS, got that, sandyR? You can denounce Obama and show your support for Clinton without engaging in this kind of sensationalist TRASH.
You are either an Obama troll, or a Republican troll. If this was my site I would delete your comments and ban your IP.
You are as low as they come, sandyR.
The Obama girl forgot to vote. lol.
Throw these kids a party and they will skip election day. They are only in it for the fun.
Hey David Cassidy is not Gay!
I loveddddddd him when I was 10!
He’s grown into a pretty stand up man. Nothing like his TV red-headed brother! What a mess!
Don’t be hating on David now!
This story has got to be a joke. That’s all I have to day about it.
Actually I’ve been working on this very issue.
I took the “black” off of Obama to see what was left.
The result was an image of a white guy with a hard-on. (sorry, but it’s true). I realized that’s what Obama is selling the college crowd. It’s a hard-on for boys and girls (gender doesn’t matter). That’s why the Obamaphiles get so crazed when you question them. Damn it, you are getting in the way of their
hard-on.
I’ve figured that the way to dispel this voodoo is to address Obama’s real sexuality.
Face it, these Obama-posers really are still homophobic. (I like to think that LGBT people can see through real bullshit like Obama. LGBT people don’t need the Obotomy a number of others seem to line up for.)
Anyway, show Obama’s sexuality for what it is. He’s gay, or at least on the “down-low.” But definitely I’d say his main sexual identity is gay.
Reveal him as being gay and the straight nazi boys will lose their hard-on (ah, darn, huh?).
Reveal him as gay and the girl’s won’t know what the hell to do with their fantasies.
So Larry Sinclair/Donald Young/ Nate Spence/ Larry Bland/ Trinity Church murders/ Rev. Manning “homosexual” allegations towards Wright and Obama.
Go after this story.
There are three murders within 40 days of each other. All members were of Trinity Church. All members were gay, black men. Not one of the murders has been solved. This is all like 6 months ago. The media is not covering this story.
F*$ing media. This is offensive on so many levels it is ridiculous. Gay people getting murdered doesn’t count? One of the few news items on this story says that cops weren’t investigating
(and this item only mentioning two murders) the murders as being related because they happened five miles apart from each other. Wuh? I don’t suppose killers could have figured out how to drive cars or anything…
The media blackout on this is ridiculous. I don’t give a shit whether Larry Sinclair is telling the truth or not. I’ve got a gay closeted politician running for President. I’ve got three dead members of the church he attended. WTF is going on?
I didn’t bother to watch the clip. I suspect a bunch of lunatics and I won’t be far off.
What is wrong with this country? One day the media are obsessed with Paris Hilton, then Madonna adopted son, then Sen. Cotton Candy. No wonder the people in this country are getting more stupid by the day.
Oh, yeah, I just read the adoption was finalized, Madonna adopting her African son.
Remember, she went on Oprah to explain?
i wish it was a joke. it should be a joke, because it is, and people thinking he can win in november is an even bigger joke.
when i first saw this on cnn’s “political ticker” my stomach seriously turned. nevermind the bush white house crimes, the war in iraq, afganistan? is that still going on? fisa? oh, right, i guess we could report those, but WAIT… OBAMA IN JEANS.. EEEEEEEEE!
no shame, cnn. no shame.
Somewhat off-topic but…does it bother anyone else that Obama holds dual citizenship? (Kenya–1963) Maybe it’s just me, but it seems that a US president should not be a legal citizen of another country. Comments?
Doesn’t bother me.
Sorry, but his roots have nothing to do with my own sense of him.
I don’t like him for the reasons outlined in the article on here today about how to win.
He says he’s for unity while dividing.
He says he’s transcended race while arousing deep emotions to win.
He says his opponent is negative while running negative.
He says he’s transparent while blocking access.
He says he’s against old-style while using the oldest styles in the book.
His roots?
Nah*……doesn’t bother me.
Obama vows to seat Fla. delegates
He assured us that Florida delegates will be at the convention and they’ll have their party hats on,” reported South Florida Congressman Tim Mahoney, one of the uncommitted superdelegates.
This appears to be the first time Obama, the front-runner for the nomination, has made such a clear, definite promise. Hillary Clinton, his rival for the nomination, has made the pledge several times.
http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/politics/blog/2008/05/obama_vows_to_seat_fla_delegat.html
You Guys Must Help Him Keep His Word..and Can someone tell me if he seats FL do we go back to the orignail 2209 nomination rule?
