While on the way to brunch today, the weighted Companion Cube pointed out that 0bama made a very telling joke:
He said whoever gave me my middle name didn't think I'd ever be running for president.
eh? "Whoever gave me my middle name"??? Doesn't he know?
Maybe we're reading to much into that, but several things come to mind. Most of those could explain why he is so reluctant to allow the American people anywhere near his real birth certificate.
While I would rather post this as a separate article, I will say here that what is happening to Joe The Plumber, just because he asked an honest question that elicited an honest but troubling answer from the bomma shows the nazi tendencies that accompany him and what will come to America if he is elected....
It was an attempt at a joke and it he bombed. It was not close to funny.
We had better get used to these jokes. We have eight years of them coming our way. Then it’s on to President Chelsea.
Yes. Good point, I should have made the context clear. I guess I assumed that all FReepers would know that, sorry, my bad.
I’m not at all sure that the wording was “whoever”, but something like “somebody” or “the person who”. I just don’t remember him saying it as though the person that gave him his middle name was unknown. He just didn’t say “my mother”.
What about the last name? Obama sounds like O-BOMB-A to me. I wouldn’t want to be associated with a bomb.
Way too many other things to worry about that BO has said to waste time focusing on a joke.
Nothing here!!!
This country needs a president who is so screwed up in the head that he's embarrassed about his own name. I'll bet he's wishing he had kept Barry Soetero.
“I got my middle name from somebody...”
Thanks, certainly a bit less odd that my misremembered “whoever named me”.
In point of fact, didn’t he chose his own name after Lolo Soetoro gave him up?
that’s not entirely true. they may be mating at an alarming rate, but since they are also strong pro-choice advocates they abort their future successors, which is why they have to indoctrinate other people’s children.
You have got to be kidding!
McCain got twice the applause as Obama even in that liberal atomsphere! McCain's timing was perfect...Obama read from his cards the entire time.
I thought that Obama's joke, "whoever gave me my middle name didn't think I'd ever be running for president," was pretty funny, but I don't think that referring to a loved one as a "weighted Companion Cube" is the least bit cute.
Sing it Brother!
I cannot imagine ever uttering the words "whoever gave me my middle name" since I know exactly who DID give me my middle name - there's not a shred of doubt so the word "whoever" could not cross my lips in that context.
I wouldn’t worry about that one. But I would worry about his birth certificate. The government should tell him his campaign is on hold until he shows proof of citizenship. If they already know, why don’t they share it with the people.
Thank you for dropping the really important things you personally are focusing on to take the valuable and irreplaceable time to comment on my insignificant thread.
Methinks it was not a joke.
Obama knows he was adopted.
