...gotta love Scrappleface

[thefrankbaum]

Didn’t see the Scrapple at first. Almost had me!

[Hatheos]

Me too! LOL

[sauropod]

yep

I know this is satire. But really, Obama needs to man up. He really doesn’t do well when women go after him. What a wuss. And he wants to be Commander-in-Chief. Lord help us if that should come to pass.

[RC2]

I guess “almost” joining the military is as important as being in the military. What an insult to our brave men and women.

[Lord Jim]

Does anybody know the story about that Obama Youth Group video at the top of this thread? How unimaginably bizarre.

[kimchi lover]

I love how they constantly say “Swift Boat style attacks”, as if what the Swift Boat guys said about Kerry wasn’t true.

[SERKIT]

The thing about ScrappleFace is that it is getting harder to distinguish between parody and the foolishness of Barry - I could almost believe it....

[Piquaboy]

The coward of the county wanted to join the Army. Bull S—t.

[ncfool]

Are we drinking the koolaid or will we fight to the end!

[Loud Mime]

Obama didn’t join the military, true. But he watched MASH a lot. He’s smart!

[Ugot2Bkidding]

I’m glad I had my second cup of coffee. I’m reading along going. WTF? Then Scrappleface caught my eye. LOL

After Obama loses, the next Left wing Democrat running for president will complaint (whine) about Wrighting and Ayering.

[Cicero]

I didn't see Scrappleface at first.

“Just like they done old John Kerry, they’re doin’ me,” said Sen. Obama. “They know that I pondered military service and might have ended up as a swift-boat commander and decorated war hero if the Vietnam conflict hadn’t ended too soon.”

That sounds so much like Obama, it's eerie.

[Twinkie]

Obama started out running against Governor Palin. Then he backed off. Guess he can’t stand up to her, so he has to stick to running against McCain. Ha. Ha.

[According2RecentPollsAirIsGood]

Scott Ott does the best satire in the country. Period. I was fooled until, about halfway through, I saw who wrote it.

[concerned about politics]

Oboma wears a mask so no one can see who he really is. Each word is parsed to hide something, and his speeches are vague to hide the rest. Will the real Barrack Oboma please stand up and show himself?

( Media Alert - You must say you're a Oboma supporter, otherwise you're a hateful racist.)

[alloysteel]

Keep it in focus, people. This HAS to be send-up, to suspend belief even momentarily that Barack Hussein Obama, Jr., the charismatic, messianic Magic, um, Mulatto, would EVER consider such an radioactive occupation as being in a disciplined military venue. He cannot even bring himself to respect such a profession.

There was NEVER any fear that Obama would ever succumb to the blandishments of collecting on the GI Bill for education, or using the VA Home Loan Guaranty program for a home purchase. Getting up in the mornings and marching for a government you despised (and we may be certain that in the early 1980’s, even then young Obama would have despised serving under Ronaldus Magnus) was just not on his radar.

He really doesn’t do well when women go after him.

He wouldn't even have been the nominee if Oprah hadn't vouched for him. "Go ahead, sistas, you can vote for this one, he ain't a dog like the guy who won't pay your child support!"
