Barry's miffed that at Wednesday's debate "it took us 45 minutes before we even started talking about a single issue that matters to the American people. Forty-five minutes before we heard about health care, 45 minutes before we heard about Iraq, 45 minutes before we heard about jobs, 45 minutes before we heard about gas prices."
If it bothered him so much, why didn't he have the guts to say to the moderators: OK, I've had enough irrelevant questions. Now I'm going to discuss health care, Iraq, Jobs, gas prices. . . " He wants to be president of the United States but is too wimpy to stand up to George Stephanopoulos?
The questions B. Hussein thought unworthy centered on character. Heck, even some Democrats might think character counts.
Moreover, after 21 debates, it's not as though voters haven't heard enough from the candidates about health care, Iraq, Jobs, gas prices, etc. Even Obama admits: "I could deliver Senator Clinton's lines. I'm sure she could deliver mine." So can voters who've been paying attention.
In 1960, John Kennedy avoided debates with primary opponent Hubert Humphrey. Kennedy's reasoning was they differed so little on issues, a debate would waste everyone's time. It's the same with Clinton and Obama, but few want to acknowledge that.
What really has Obama fretting is his lousy performance Wednesday night. If he's not being tossed softballs by his ardent mainsteam media admirers or speaking before a bunch of goofy college students, he can't handle the action. Barry gives good teleprompter, but that's about it. So now he's suggesting he's had enough debates.
He's sounding very bitter. Maybe he should cling to religion or guns or . . . No, I guess he would never do that. That might be too manly.
Reasonable Americans recognize that having the voice of a radio news announcer is neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for a person to be elected President.
“He’s sounding very bitter. Maybe he should cling to religion or guns or . . . No, I guess he would never do that. That might be too manly”.
...the “religion and guns” line with Obamalamadingdong is what “Read my lips” was to Bush Sr. What “Macaca” was to George Allen. What “potato(e)” was to Dan Quayle. It’s about time a dem stuck his foot in his/her mouth and people actually know about it!
When he’s on his government paid for death bed, surrounded by his fellow Marxist dipsh$$s, he’ll be haunted by the “religion and guns” line.
Then he’ll be checked into his 1 room suite in HELL!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Good point. My concern is how many reasonable Americans are still out there.
In other words, those annoying questions they asked me don’t matter.
I admire your spelling skills. And memory.
And I'm glad to see so many of my accomplices in the media agree.
Obama wants to be judged by the color of his skin and not the content of his character.
I wonder if Martin Luther King's youngest child will live long enough to see the day when Democrats no longer want that.
I believe she's in her mid-forties now and I wish her a long life, but don't think she'll be around for the day the 'Rats change.
My concern is how many reasonable Americans are still out there.
A reasonable concern, I'll grant...
It's been that way all my life. And I'm depressingly close to McCain's age.
Obama to staff: “Check the transcripts. Let me know what was not covered during the first 45 minutes so I can rant about the first 45 minutes. STAT!”
Hillary's redneck stuff on her podium:
LOL
Did you notice Obama even has Grey Poupon? The linked video describes the items.
I saw it. What a hoot.
Olbermann: Mr. Obama: If you could be a tree, what kind of a tree would you be?
Obama: OK, that is not fair, OK? You asked her What kind of a rock would she be. There are a lot fewer kinds of rocks to choose from than trees, and rocks are tougher and more manly.
Olbermann: We asked her what her Iraq policy would be.
Obama: OK. Alright. I accept the question then. That Iraq thing is a much harder question than the tree question. But can I answer the Iraq question, too? Because I'm really smart.
Olbermann: Go ahead.
Obama: My Iraq policy is what she said. Only better. A lot better than what she said.
Matthews: (pressing both hands to heart): He's so post warfare.
Olbermann: He is, isn't he? He's totally post warfare.
Matthews: Mrs. Clinton, I'd like you to explain how gauge fixing is used to quantize the Yang-Mills field.
Clinton: He didn't answer the tree question!
Matthews: His answer to the Iraq question was so good, we decided to give him a pass. Please answer the question.
Obama: I'd like to answer that gauge-thingy.
Matthews (leg spasming involuntarily): Oh, please. Please answer the the Yang-Mills quantization question.
Obama: Well, Mrs. Clinton can't answer that question because she's not as smart or as cool or as trans-quantum as I am.
Matthews to Olbermann: He is trans-quantum.
Olbermann: Definitely. Mr. Obama would you like to take thirty seconds to trash the Mad Dwarf and his wooden sidekick from the ABC debate last month as we go to commercial?
Clinton: I didn't get to answer my question.
Matthews: He answered it for you: you can't answer it because you're not smart enough. Go ahead Mr. Obama.
Obama: Well Chris--may I call you Chris?
Matthews (leg spasming again): You may call me anything you like...
Obama: Well Chris, last week we spent 45 minutes--forty five minutes, if you can believe that--answering questions that I've had the whole campaign refusing to answer. My answers were very strong, very post-racial, as you know, despite how horribly unfair these questions were; terribly, terribly unfair. I felt at times like an Indian running in front of Annie Oakley's sniper fire. Now with regards to last months questioner, "Will no one rid me of that turbulent Stephanopolis?" Someone as Kos, FOI, maybe?Now I think it's time to get to the serious issues that the American people care about. Especially if she has to answer the questions first, like we agreed. But before we do that, can I have another shot at that tree question?
Matthews: When we come back, Barak Obama answers the tree question! Don't go away... [fade to political commercial]
A weeping willow.
Keith O's and Chrissy's man crush on BO will not be diminished.
