Obama on 4th of July [Satire]
Duh Progressive ^ | Thursday, July 4th, 2013 | Michael Madshack

Posted on 07/10/2013 1:02:48 AM PDT by Okimi2200

“You’d think we’d stop celebrating the birth of the worst imperial power in history –but nooooo…we have to do this flag-waving bullshit every year,” Obama muttered more as he made his way from the podium. “I can’t believe I have to miss a good day of golf for this crap!”

Although Obama’s presumably inaudible words were not heard nearly as loudly as his official Independence Day speech, a few reporters and attendees close to the speakers beneath the White House balcony heard him distinctly. Obama tacked on a couple more self-pitying quips before removing his clip-on mic, “...Could have been at Oakmont with Jay-Z now trying out that new Callaway set Alec (Baldwin) gave me last year! Damn this day sucks!” - See more at: http://www.duhprogressive.com/index.php/358-obama-on-4th-of-july-i-cant-believe-i-have-to-miss-a-good-day-of-golf-for-this-crap#sthash.2WT5ifnz.dpuf

You can bet that what he says in private is a thousand times worse than this.

This sounds either like satire or an attempt to get conservatives to fall for a false story. If it’s true, it’s a good story. But I call it chasing a ghost as a reporter. You investigate a story that turns out to be a fake.

Whether true or not, it is plausible. This is his spirit.

First of all it smells like a trap. Big time stink.

Secondly what FReepers are usually incredibly good at is tracking things down. You are fairly new so maybe you aren't aware of that.

Good time to learn to sort the wheat from the chaff.

First do a search for the author and learn about him. Then follow up by visiting several websites like urban legends, snopes and such. Some are admittedly leftist and provide cover but by searching several you can get an idea of what the truth is.

From urban legends IIRC.

Analysis: This never happened. The article is a spoof. The source of the article, a fake news site called DuhProgressive.com, openly compares itself to The Onion and features the following disclaimer at the bottom of every page:

DISCLAIMER: Duh Progressive is a political satire site. While some of the individual quotes, people and events mentioned on Duh Progressive may be real, most of the content is fictional and should not be taken seriously.

Well, if it’s not a ghost story, we should do our best to make it go viral. This is insane. I’m always talking smack about Barry, but sometimes I think I’m exaggerating. Well, it’s really sad we elected such a traitor as President.

Good explanation. I’m a newbie too, so we have to be be careful. Another tip would be to Google search the subject. If it’s true at least one MSM site did a story on it too.

MAny times the left plants stories like this hoping right wingers will pick up on it and try to m,ake it an issue. sometimes the stories make conservative Radio and TV shows.

A good example is a story that made Pittsburgh's WPGB morning show, Quinn and Rose, as well as other conservative programs.

It claimed Nancy Pelosi was Miss Lube Rack in 1955 and even included a picture. With just a little thought it should be obvious that she would have been too young to have been the girl in the picture.

Never the less it made many shows and even got a thread on FR.

We did debunk it but some people really fell for it.

I agree. It’s one of the reasons I’m not a fan of Alex Jones. I’m even suspicious he might be a tool of Obama to make us conservatives look like conspiracy theorist fools. Hitting Obummer with the truth should be sufficient for us.

When I initially saw that same story a while ago, I “bit” as well. While I despise both odumbo and moooooooooooshelle, (the picture with the extended fingers, although probably photo shopped) is what I believe they think of our country. As Americans, we have been fortunate to have been born here or allowed to migrate (legally of course) here. Those two bast$5ds should be expelled no matter what they supposedly said or will say.

More believable than anything dumBO has actually said.

I was tired and heading to bed, so I got lazy. Instead of looking this up myself I posted knowing that if it was a prank or spoof one of you would find out before I got up. I have never stumbled across “Duh Progressive” before, looking with a clear head that should have been a tip off. Thanks for setting me straight.
