I thought this was satire at first. The night time TV comics should go crazy on this. God, I can’t believe this, but it shows how much of an empty suit this guy is, when you get him out on his own and away from a teleprompter.

There’s no way they can hide this guy’s incompetence. Pray that McCain won’t crack up.

He MUST pick a good VP running mate.

“I’d like to know when the last time (if ever) B.O. ever did a tune up.”

I’d like to know what kind of car he’s leasing at taxpayer’s expense in DC!

Dittos to the Freeper who said this sounds like Sheryl Crow’s eco-hygienic advice.

The other thing is that this is play 45 out of his playbook. If you’ve ever heard him hold forth on health care, the reason we’re going broke on healthcare is that all the po folks are going to the ER to take breathalyzer tests errr inhalators errr inhalers for their asthma. If we could only get them to ol’ Marcus Welby’s OFFICE all would be well.

The overarching theme is that we’re supposed to whack ourselves on the forehead and say “DAMN - why didn’t I think of that. Thank you Messiah!”

“consumption dropped by 10% last month, year over year.”

And because of less consumption, the liberals in congress want to raise gasoline taxes to make up for lost revenue.

The worst part for Obama and the best part for McCain was the reaction he got from the Missouri blue collar crowd, virtual silence. You don’t tell blue collar workers how to operate their cars, that’s like giving the same speech at Taladega, bad move Obambi.

Obamy has to be the dumbest S.O.B. ever to run for President.

I think there was another “stump” speech (as in “dumber than a”) where if we pulled out of Iraq, we’d save about as much, err more, err more than pay for blah blah blah - there’s always some gazillion dollar savings just around the corner if we’d only take the annointed one’s advice.

I don't think that the RNC has ever had or will ever possess the backbone needed to run the types of advertisements you describe.

Guess you haven't been watching?

I swear, I think the guy is trying to lose the election on purpose. In the last week alone, he failed to visit wounded US troops and worked out for journalists instead, he hinted that reparations for blacks might be in the works even though he already has 95% of the black vote sewn up and needs the white middle to win, and he now stated we need to simply start inflating our tires and getting a tune up to solve many of our energy problems.

I say will just build a giant rubber wall around one of the smaller states, and throw Obama and all his dunce supporters in it, and let them form their own country called "Idiostan" where Obama is their designated despot, free to do whatever they want, where they can't hurt the rest of us normal people. After a few years, most of them would be dead from their isolation away from common sense, and we can tear down the rubber wall and make Idiostan a state again.

Honest to God, liberals simply don’t care!

If he said all newborn males should be eaten for dinner within the week, they’d simply swoon and chant “change” and “hope”.

You don’t use logic to reason with liberals, they’re simply immune to it.

I was listening to Rush today talking about ObamaNATION of Islam and reparations...saying we must finally acknowledge slavery.

Ummmm....he’s black with a legit shot at winning the presidency....what on earth...well....nevermind.

What planet are these people from?

Definitely ~ he might also want to catch up on how you "maintain" fuel injection systems ~ which we adopted to ELIMINATE the ability of carowners to easily adjust their carburation systems to lean or rich (for economy or power).

This guy voted for new CAFE standards and yet he has no idea how those standards are met.

I am awed by the supposed fierce intelligence of Obama (as purported on FR). Tell me more, oh wise Obama!

He seriously fits right in with the vacuous Hollywood crowd. So much for the “misunderestimating”.

Good! Another point my wife just brought up; how much tire inflation and tune-ups would be necessary to compensate for his "campaign" trip to Europe a week ago?

No, of course he didn't say that. Obama is not that ignorant....

Did you not listen to the video?

QUOTE: "...making sure your ties are properly inflated. We could have all the oil that they're talking about getting off oil drilling - if everybody was just inflating their tires....You could actually save just as much."

Where, in there, does he not say we can solve our oil crisis by inflating our tires -

Bringing to mind the question, what IS the difference between a shuck and a jive?
