FLOTUS: Reach out to 'knuckleheads,' tell them to vote
politico44 ^ | 10/15/12 | BYRON TAU

Posted on 10/15/2012 2:41:46 PM PDT by ColdOne

"Talk to everyone you know -- your friends, your neighbors, that cousin you haven't seen in a while, that student sitting next to you in class. You know he's kind of a knucklehead," the first lady said. "You know the one."

"Tap him on the shoulder. Be nice. Don't call him a knucklehead. Not to his face. You just want to encourage him to get to the polls," Obama said. "But tell him what's at stake."

The first lady also explained that the Obama campaign had buses waiting to bring supporters directly from her rally to the polls.

"We have a bus that is going to take any of you here who wants to go straight to the board of elections to cast your ballot for Barack Obama," she said.

"Get on the bus! Get on the bus!" she said, with the crowd echoing her. "Get on that bus and make your voices heard."

"I want you to get everyone you know to vote by mail or vote early in person, and if you know anyone who doesn't vote early, make sure they get to the polls and make their voices heard on election day," she said. "That is our secret plan."

Well, if THREE YEAR OLDS could vote, and had developed sense, I BET THEY´D VOTE FOR THE CANDIDATE THAT PROMISES TO REDUCE THE DEBT THAT THEY WILL HAVE TO PAY. This run away spending is immoral. He didn´t get THAT job done. Fire him.

But, but her knucklehead will vote (for himself, of course), and will probably vote for himself many many times (including in Kenya.)

Obama is a dork.

Period.

They can’t say that, not after characterizing conservatives as “knuckle-draggers” for so long.

“So, Democrats are after the ‘Knucklehead’ vote.”

Yes, it’s there base. Would anyone EXCEPT a knucklehead vote again for this clown now that he’s laid down a track record and can no longer run on empty promises like Hope and Change?

She wants a “knucklehead” to vote? If they’re such knuckleheads, how do you know they’ll vote for your guy?

I will be so happy when this woman is a footnote in history. I have never been more ashamed of a first lady in all my 66 years.

“Be nice. Don’t call him a knucklehead. Not to his face.”

Just like her husband! Don’t confront a guy you disagree with, like a man.
Badmouth him behind his back, but only when it’s safe.
Key his car in the dark, when the parking lot is empty.

I distinctly remember George Corley Wallace Jr. ranting about “the bussin.”
Are they still at it?
