Obama Denies Flipping Hillary The Bird
Presidential Politics ^ | 4-19-08 | unknown

Posted on 04/19/2008 1:11:54 PM PDT by Anti-Hillary

The Obama campaign denies that Obama gave Hillary the infamous one-finger salute:

A spokesman for the presidential campaign of Illinois Sen. Barack Obama has criticized The Ticket for making a "false and childish accusation" in an item Thursday that the candidate's one-fingered gesture during a speech that day might have been the finger aimed at his Democratic Party opponent instead of an innocent finger aimed at brushing his cheek or scratching a scratch.

As displayed in a video clip, Obama was criticizing Washington for its gotcha politics in general and New York Sen. Hillary Clinton specifically as being "in her element" there. As he mentions her name, he brushes his cheek twice with the middle finger of his right hand.

No, the people are definitely different and so is his tie.

He’s a smart-ass and a coward. He repeats the same gesture twice for laughs even while denying it, for the amusement of the crowd. I don’t minding him flipping hillary off, but lying and denying while playing to his deluded groupies makes him a punk.

Compare this to Cheney, who never denied telling commie idiot leaky leahey to “go f*ck yourself”. I have a feeling that if I was a congressman, I’d be using that phrase a lot.

You notice in the second one, he is, like a little punk kid, loving the reaction of the crowd the first time, he not only repeats it, he adds some more gestures = to announce, “yeah, I'm getting a dig in - and you dig it.”

And this is a person that's people trust to deal with foreign heads of state - not to mention, handle our country - Wow. Isn't he a “uniter”

first time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMGMrcIfkZw&NR=1

second time: different audience

“The fact that they are denying it lets me know he did it on purpose.”

Thanks

As though they were expecting him to say, “Oh, sure, I flipped the honkey bitch the finger!”

we need to send these two clips to Hannity and Rush - not sure if O’Reilly wouldn't make light of it.

they need to get on this Monday -= it goes to the list of character flaws and judgment.

Once ‘flip’ “might” be an accident, although the audience didn't think so...but two different times at the same place in his speech - no accident. And in the second one, he gloats.

Let's FREEP Hannity and Rush - remember, their desk has to receive X amount of emails on a given subject before they will give it to them...

ElRushbo@eibnet.com

Persons behind him are different only because of the camera angle.

You aren't looking at the right two - the second one is a totally different audience and in the second one, he's so proud of himself, he adds other gestures and words he didn't in the first one...sorry - the man is guilty. http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZMGMrcIfkZw&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoOFp-RDpvM&feature=related

posting the links live for you in next post

He also smiled after which he coyly said, “We got to twist the knife a little . . . “

He knew what he was doing and couldn’t hold back his glee as the audience caught on. The age of You Tube will bring to light that which you want held to a closed audience.

LOL! It reminds me of that waitress discreetly flipping George the bird on Seinfeld.
