THE $15 DOLLAR WAY FOR US TO FRAME OBAMA'S DEBATE FOR HIM
self | 09/22/2008 | Rex Horicon

Posted on 09/22/2008 4:54:14 AM PDT by ConvertedDem2Rep

I have a good idea for how we can "weclome" Nobama to the debates this Friday. I call it the "$15.00" way because a cheap pillow and a reliable delivery service should cost to send Barack Obama a pillow to sit on when he's wearied by the excruciating task of having to lower himself be in the same room with his opponent and answering to the American people.

Saturday Night Live may have shown their ultimate bias by removing the video from the internet (http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2008/02/24/snl-cnn-debate-moderators-totally-tank-senator-obama) but WE can show them and the world that WE remember a time not long ago when it was still okay to point out the media is in the Tank for Nobama - send him your pillows! Get it on the news that the day Nobama showed up to "debate" his opponent the American people remembered how "trying" it was for him to have to lower himself to sit in the same room with us, and how insulting it must be for him to actually have to be temporarily accountable to the people he's asking to make his life into a fairy tale.

Add a little note that says "dear barack, good luck trying to appear as the inspirational figure you pretend to be outside of the halo of your own campaign". "Dear barack good luck and here's hoping the moderators are still in the tank for you", or my personal favorite, "dear barack, goodbye and good riddance, here is something to cry on for you when you're back in Illinois stuck in the crappy job you didn't want as a US Senator but at least I won't be able to hear you anymore."

My thoughts are that waking up on Friday morning to the story of the day Nobama found a thousand pillows Fedex'd to him waiting for him at the debates, would get a lot of coverage and put his indebtedness to the liberal media into a stark spotlight for the remaining month or so. Who is with me?

bio: From Dem to Republican. In 2004, when Kerry lost, I was stupefied. I said this a million times: what in the name of God causes people to vote against their own economic self interest? ("self interest" sounds so elitist now). In my mind it was literally a matter of voting against having gas in the car and food on the table. Unfortunately for me I have found my answer. I didn't realize it in 2004 that Bill Clinton was an exception amongst his peers, and I didn't name what it was that separated him. I voted for Kerry but I would take that vote back now, if I'd known then that it was more than just lack of charisma and appeal that failed to distinguish him. When Kerry went on the attack against the president who literally walked straight out of the hospital room after a quadruple bypass to campaign for him, I saw the Kerry, the man without principles or loyalty that was so plain to the winning majority of the electorate in 2004. To hell with the Democrats.

Welcome to Free Republic and congrats on your awakening. The pillow idea is clever. It can also symbolize how soft the press has been on him. It’s not as crude as when the libs sent pretzels to the Pres after he had his little chocking event but it’s a start. Btw & fwiw, keep vanity postings to a minimum.

I wouldn’t waste $15 on him. However, I might spring for a bag of marshmallows, signifying the type of questions the MSM have tossed his way.

Buy a softball, write “To: Barack Love: The Media”. Leave those all over the debate.

Yes, Marshmallows. Anyone have the time to track down the mailing address of the debate venue? I would definitely get a package out right away.

Alternately, we could just send them to his house in Chicago.

Thousands and thousands of them! I can see it now. All the supermarket shelves empty of marshmallows, and cases and cases of them in Zerobama's driveway. Heh.

There was a sports reporter years ago who used the phrase “Johnson & Johnson Baby Powder soft.” Baby powder. Send baby powder to 0, for someone who’s only asked the gentle questions.

That or a paint chip, for someone who, in voting ‘Present,’ is forever caught watching the paint dry.

There's also a marshmallow-like product used as a topping on ice cream called Fluff. That might be appropriate, too!

Thanks DBT. I look at the conversion as a repeat of what happened under Carter. My grandpa voted Democrat almost his whole life and after Carter “won” the nomination that was it for him, he’s voted Republican straight down the line for thirty years now. I’m glad I have the chance to cast my vote along side his. A “friend” of mine was actually deriding John McCain’s POW experience the other day, as if to say he’s “taking advantage”. I told her there is not a person in the world who could imagine the scenario of Obama in a uniform much less risking his life for the sake of anyone, much less for a country Obama doesn’t care about. Quite the awakening to see what’s behind all their lovey-dovey peace and harmony new age fanaticism.

Apparently I do, lol. Either I’ve changed or the town (Madison, WI) has. Well I can say for sure the town has gone way down hill. The university has tripled its recruiting and they dominate like never before. I lived around the country for a while and always wanted to get back here, now I’ve been back 3 years and the more I see of the place the more I’m like, “ughh!”. To be quite honest I have some concern about my vote being counted and the validity of the election here. Wisconsin is close in the polls and I think they might pull an “Indiana” where mysteriously there are double the normal amount of votes coming out of pro-Obama counties like mine. I know exactly what kind of people are staffing the government offices in my district and I have a small bit of concern about what the person who opens my absentee ballot in the mail is actually going to do with it.
