Obama drops the Seal, campaign in chaos
Heart-ache: Obama drops presidential seal ^ | June 23, 2008 | Hot Air

Posted on 06/23/2008 1:44:40 PM PDT by xDGx

Like the man says, he insists on the suppression of ego; he just didn’t realize it might come off as egotistical to debut his very own presidential seal until his friends and allies in the media politely informed him of it. And so under the bus it goes, assuming there’s any room left under there with Wright, Pfleger, Rezko and who knows who else crowded in.

I’ve had my fun with the Obama campaign’s seal, and now that fun ends. I’m told that Obama recognizes that it was a silly mistake, that the universal reaction at Wacker and Michigan was, “Boy, was that dumb,” and that they don’t think the seal staging will matter to actual voters.

Obama did not make that seal and he did not put it up there in front of him on the podium. In fact, he did not even know it was in front of him. One of his volunteer aids is responsible for it and he does not endorse it.

Just like one of his "volunteer aides" told those two headscarfed moslem women to move their asses out of the camera view.

And you believe this sh*t...

The same kind of ego as Stalin, Hitler, and Mussolini.

Does this idiot Obama know ANYTHING that is going on with his own campaign?

Anything at all?

The ONLY reason the chicken crossed the road

You know it’s a screwed up Monday when you honestly have to ask yourself. “Is this article satire?”

Go peddle that nonsense at some other board were the Kool aid flows like water and the posters smell bad and think it's still 1968.

In today's high stakes Presidential races EVERY DETAIL IS WORKED OUT BEFORE HAND, nothing is taken for granted

The only thing you said that is true is Obama didn't put that seal up there, some other Obama zombie did

The flip side of what you said means Obama is simply a puppet and follows orders and basically just speaks the words and was picked because he is a clean and articulate black man

Which is it troll?

Of course not. No one in the Obama campaign actually works for him. He doesn’t really know any of them or what they are doing. Obama likes to keep a respectful distance between himself and ordinary beings and their activities so that he can concentrate on Hope and Change and stuff.

It’s always this way with the Democrats. They want to be in charge of everything, but when something goes wrong they had no idea what was going on in their organizations.

Too stupid and too arrogant.

Worth repeating!

Chuck Todd and the rest of the press corps who pleaded with St. Barack to straighten up and abort (the seal).

Now, the 'press' is giving Obama campaign advice?!

I hope you are joking. I do not find it in the slightest bit believable that and ego driven narcissist like Obama had no idea that seal was on his podium. If he didn’t know that, he should never be President.

Geesh, how ignorant.
