All aboard the Jive Talk Express

My syndicated column today deconstructs Barack Obama's pitiful performance yesterday. Try as he might, he simply cannot disown the un-disownable preacher of hate. That press conference yesterday renders the Philadelphia speech from March null and void. And anyone who fell for the Philadelphia speech (unfortunately, there were several on the right side of the aisle) should feel especially embarrassed today. Try not to be fooled again.

Speaking of the Philly speech, Jeff Emanuel notes that Obama is actually selling DVDs of the speech to raise money. Yep. At the same time he was attempting to finally disown Jeremiah Wright, he was peddling his speech refusing to disown him.

Huckster.

Michelle Malkin sure has a way of cutting through all the smoke and mirrors, that why I like her so.

He gave his speech for the press so that they would say what he wants them to say. But an informed public knows that he doesn’t mean any of it.

I counted the "uhhhs" and "ummms" the Liberal Messiah uttered yesterday.

I think the number was 47,052.

I was really impressed with the educated stammering and stuttering. “I I I I uh uh uh uh”. It made him sound very thoughtful, very insightful.

The thrill going up my leg became so intense I even fainted a few times.

The arrogance of this prick is just amazing...where are the body language experts? BHO was very, very unconvincing in the news conference. He lies very poorly, refuses to look at the camera, stutters, falls back into the Me, Me speech of a teenager.

MSM:Another COMPELLING< COMPELLING, VERY COMPELLING speach by Obama

There is no question the MSM and just about every politician think that we, the voters, the mayority anyway are just plain STUPID. But the I do wonder if they have a point feeling thiw way about us. I am sure they believe, that even today with the Internet and everything else in communications, we are still a bunch of morons. If you repeat something enought times on tv an radio, we, the idiots, end up believing it and going along with it. Sort of the transformation with Macaca right now. They are convinced it's just a question of time, before we - the idiots, the dupes - will "come around."

Significantly, today’s line is that a majority of Congress quietly supports Obama. Interesting, when one observes they have been unable to accomplish almost anything. Maybe and infusion of Cialis.... Here’s yer’ sign, America - you voted ‘em in.

Read this from Michelle’s piece below- and listen to Hannity’s interview a year ago- (actually where Colmes is trying to bail Wright out)http://youtube.com/watch?v=aNTGRL0OJWQ at around 4:35 into the interview Wright begins using the phrases “subjective not objective” (as in blacks and whites being wired differently according to Wright) and “different not deficient” . These are phrases he developed further in his speech at the NAACP speech- clearly they are THEMES he’s used for years. I don’t bring this up as a smoking gun - but it illustrates a point made by Michelle’s clergy friend- this way of thinking and teaching is not NEW for Wright.

From Michelle’s piece:

...”A reader of mine who is a clergyman e-mailed after Obama’s press conference: “As a pastor, I have this take: It is inconceivable that Obama had no knowledge of Wright’s views after 20 years as a member of that church. As a pastor, my heart-held, deepest beliefs and passions cannot be silenced. It is what I am. If I were given a microphone at the National Press Club, I would not speak on something that I had guardedly kept secret for most of my life. No, I would go to my main point, the center of my ministry, the core of my passion, to speak truth as I know it to be. How can Obama actually claim that this is news from his pastor? His mailman, butcher or plumber? No problem. His pastor? No way!”...

No, not all "we, the idiots, end up believing it."
