You’ll have heard the speech by now. Barack Obama yesterday addressed a large crowd and said that McCain was

Going to try and make you scared of me. [polite applause]

You know, “He’s not patriotic enough.” [polite applause]

“He’s got a funny name.” [polite applause]

You know, “He doesn’t look like all those other presidents on those dollars bills.” [loud, sustained applause, accompanied by hooting and, yes, hollering]

Presidents? Well, never mind that. What’s more interesting is that journalists heard the cheering and knew what it meant, which forced an Obama campaign spokesman to say that

"What Barack Obama was talking about was that he didn’t get here after spending decades in Washington."

A complete, bald-faced lie, of course. Washington—George, that is—did not “spend decades in Washington” yet managed to get his mug on a bill. Grant, neither. Nor Andrew Jackson. Lincoln? Ah, well.

Thus, the spokesman said a lie, but not just an ordinary lie, a ridiculously laughable lie. But, given that it came from a “spokesman”, this is still not unusual.

What I want to know is why journalists never actually accuse liars of lying. The “L” word is never heard or seen in the media. Possibly this is because...

Without a teleprompter, this guy sounds pretty streetwise and street tough. Lots of “ya knows”, etc., with a certain arrogant cadence to the talk. I bet he needs prompting to remember to use “ing” at the end of a word.

Spill some coffee or chocolate on a bill and the Obomination will look like all the other Presidents.

It’s the Obomination that is agahast at being black. He needs therapy. Plastic surgery wasn’t enough.

This punk won’t goad me into voting for him. LOL!

He’s a stret punk trying to guilt you into voting for him because of his race. alling him an empty black suit is flattering. If it werern’t for his COLOR, he’d never be a nominee.

He reminds me of Hillary taking on an accent when she talked to the southern blacks. The only problem with Barack is, which one is the real Obama? Hahvud-speak or southside tough? I’m guessing, and oh, I’m going out on a limb here, LOL, - southside tough. He should just go ahead and smoke in public instead of pretending he quit.
