Joy Behar claims under Obama there was 'nothing to make fun of' for comedians
FoxNews ^ | By Lindsay Kornick

"When Obama came in, it was nice," Behar said. "There was nothing to make fun of. It was... things were going well for eight years. We didn't have to... we could talk about our husbands again. We could talk about our mothers-in-law. And now it's serious again, but it's too serious now."

Come on, Joy. With your dumb ass on the air, there always is something to make fun of.

I believe it, nobody wants to be accused of racism. Someone dared to say it and lost their job, and afterwards nobody wanted to hire them. Do you remember when someone compared the then-First Lady's clothing to the clothing of the Planet of the Apes?

What she means is comedians couldnt make fun Obama because he was black and they would be called racist.

He also put out warnings that people would be investigated or prosecuted for negative comments about him; and email providers like AOL, Verizon, etc. were ordered to disclose information, if I recall. And applicants for administration jobs had to submit a copy of their entire social media output. Even at that time, many freepers would have documens running to thousands of pages.

Remember the rodeo rider who wore an Obama mask on a bucking bronco and was banned from the State Fair for it?

If a comedian made fun of Obozo he would have been accused of racism and blackballed in the industry.

True about the “racism” accusation. That gave Obama the equivalent of a Star Trek like force field. As a white man, Biden didn’t have that the impenetrable force field but nonetheless was largely protected from ridicule by mainstream entertainers. Even going back to the days Gerald Ford was ridiculed by TV comedians while Jimmy Carter was not, the label of Democrat was enough to cause comedians not to satirize a politician.

And I recall when he said he was/would be “Commander AND Chief” instead of “Commander IN Chief”.

“He was anti-Catholic in his ‘abortion, anywhere, anytime’ policies and imprisoning pro-lifers.”

Did he ever say he was Catholic? He definitely was anti-CHRISTIAN in that regard. (WTH does “Catholic” have anything to do with it?)

Oh, I remember that very well. The simpleton needed teleprompters to talk to a room full of elementary school children.
