Iowa Woman Selling Her TVs - Reason: 'Obama On Every Channel and Station'
NewsBusters.org ^ | 07/30/2009 | Seton Motley

So let us now turn our attention to an item in yesterday's Daily Times Herald in Carroll, Iowa entitled "Carroll woman's answer to highly visible Obama: Selling her televisions."

A 78-year-old Carroll woman says she's so tired of seeing President Barack Obama on the airwaves that she's selling her television sets - two of them.

Deloris Nissen, a retired nurses' aide and former Kmart employee who was raised on a farm near Audubon, placed a classified advertisement with The Daily Times Herald for Friday's paper.

In the $5.50 ad, Nissen tells readers she has two television sets for sale.

The reason: "Obama on every channel and station."

A possible successor to ‘Dan’s Bake Sale’; ‘Deloris’ TV Sale’

Here's an idea...we have a couple of old TVs just sitting around...why not arrange with local waste management firms to have a spot at the tea parties for folks to dump off these old sets...have a picture of Zero pasted to the screen...could be fun!

I had to read your post twice to believe what I was seeing. What’s next? Obama porn?

I suspect that if you googled 'obama porn' or 'BHO slash' or (God save us all) 'michelle obama slashfiction' , you would pull up sites...But I haven't the nerve to search and see, much less actually go to any sites I might find! (my eyes, my eyes!

My trophy wife, who used to laugh at me for not watching the Clintoons, sits with the remote control in her hand.
As soon as there is any picture of 0b0z0, even on Fox News, she will go to another channel.

Now I’m the one who is laughing.

The only good thing to come out of the V-chip thing is that we can use it to block out CNN, MSNBC and any network that caters to the Narcissist in chief.

Interesting story. But definitely not Breaking News worthy.

I dumped my cable subscription in September ‘08. I knew what was coming.

This reminds me of 1984 and the requirement to have Big Brother on 24/7.

In my household, whenever “O” comes on, the TV station automatically gets changed, and I’ve even started blocking stations like CNN from being viewed.

I hardly ever see him on my TV.

I usually only watch Discovery (Deadliest Catch), TLC, Dog Bounty Hunter, FoodNetwork, TVLand (AndyGriffith)...... those type shows. Never watch alphabet network channels.

It already exists.

Check your remote for a “power” button. It takes away all of emperor bammy’s power.

“... I would dearly love to know just how well TCM’s ratings have been faring since November of last year.”

Someone asked a somewhat related question in November, but it was not answered on that page.

Thanks for this service, guys. According to your records, has Turner Classic Movies (TCM), The Fox Movie Channel (FMC), or the Encore Westerns channel EVER made the top 40?”
