Paul McCartney on Obama: 'Lay Off Him'
Fox News ^ | 6/2/10 | Fox Staff

Posted on 06/02/2010 7:52:03 AM PDT by nmh

(June 2) -- Paul McCartney is a man known for his words, usually when they're set to music. But he chose some special ones at the Library of Congress to praise President Barack Obama, before whom he will soon be performing: Let him be.

"I have to say I'm a big fan, he's a great guy," McCartney said at a Washington news conference Tuesday that was attended by politicians as well as journalists. "So lay off him, he's doing great."

...

Perhaps as an example of his global concerns, McCartney called the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico "a disgrace."

"I think most of us think it's a disgrace, and the fact that something like this can happen" is something that is "going to be addressed," he said.

-------------

Oh Paul ... BP is a BRITISH COMPANY!

BP has NOTHING to do with MEXICO!

British Petroleum (BP) is a UK company.

BP plc[2] is a British global energy company which is the third largest energy company and the fourth largest company in the world. As a multinational oil company ("oil major") BP is the UK's largest corporation, with its headquarters in St James's, City of Westminster, London.

Eff you and your Beatles.

Those SOB’s helped lead a pied piper movement that led youth to drugs and counter culture destruction, and encouraged them to work for victory of communism in Vietnam.

Go to hell Mr. McCartney.


Yes ... if you know the “lifestyle” behind the scenes, when they came here ... the womanzing, drug use etc. that went on ... I don’t believe another group or solo artist came close to their throw away people philosophy.

I LOVE it.

YOU’VE got more TALENT and INTELLIGENCE than Paul any day.

I am impressed:

Okay, I wrote a song for my FRiends, in honor of Paul...hope you like it.

(to the music from “Paperback Writer”)

Dear Sir or Madam, have you met the prez
He’s for “hope & change”, at least that’s what he says
He’s known to hang out with some shady friends
But the media hid it
Now he wants to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

It’s a dirty story, of a Marxist man
But the voters didn’t seem to understand
The productive citizens must pay the price
‘cuz there’s needy folks
and he wants to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

Commie dictator…

It’s two thousand pages, give or take a few
It’s no good for Congress, but it’s GREAT for you!
The social healthcare will cost billions more
It took bribes and payoffs
But he wants to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

The illegal ones demanding equal rights
If you try to fight it, you’re a racist white
They can rob and rape, and get free healthcare too
But he needs the votes
‘cuz he to be a commie dictator, COMMIE DICTATOR!

Commie dictator – commie dictator
Commie dictator – commie dictator”

I sincerely believe YOU could make money off that.

Post MORE! YOU are inspriational. Thank you for taking the time to do that. I resepct the work of an INTELLIEGENT, CLEAR THINKING INDIVIDUAL, such as YOU!

Instead we have IDIOTS believing John Lennon’s “Imagine”.

JOHN LENNON lyrics - Imagine

Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

“Political moron confident of his beliefs.”

As long as you don’t REQUIRE him to ABIDE by the Communist beliefs he peddles, Paul is a happy, ignorant little claim living the HIGH LIFE, on your dime.

Thanks...this whole “hope & change” thing provides a fountain of material, to say the least. It took me about ten minutes to write. :)

“The ‘Rat Pack’?”

Worse!

I am not kidding you.

It was a huge drug laden orgy with hormone driven girls. Having sex is not the same as being in love with them. Girls in their teens, and older typically don't know the difference and they CAPITALIZED on it.

Notice in old footage, girls screamed and fainted at being 50 feet away from them. Use your imagination ... and now it is coming to light just how incredibly decadent they were. Females were literally taking off their clothes for them, just to have them NOTICE them - not even indulge ... yes, they got away with anything imaginable.

“I’ll say it one more time. You limosine liberals are free to cut the government a bigger check come tax time.”

Hell NO!

THAT’S for the little people.

Ole Barry more than DOUBLED his INCOME to a tad over 5 million, yet he will tell YOU when YOU ARE EARNING TOO MUCH! No, it is a ONE SIDED philosphy that does not apply to GODLESS, GREEDY, LIBERALS. THEY can’t get enough from YOU.

“No one has accused Paul of being intelligent.”

Even a person not terribly intelligent can often see major HYPOCRISY as in Paul McCartney. Paul is QUICK to see HYPOCRISY in others ... so he’s not so dumb. He’s like Obama. He lives in an imaginery world of living high and YOU FUND him. Paul’s revenue is your discretionary spending. Obama gets it through shady bailouts and back room deals and OVERSEAS MONEY that put him in position. There is nothing honest about either of them, intelligent or not.

“Tell Sir Paul to lay off telling us what to do! He may have the money to escape the bad consequences of his choices but WE don’t!”

If Paul finds this so “dusgusting” is Paul willing to put his money where his mouth is a give the U.S. some of his billions? After all it is BRITISH PETROLEUM, that is “digusting” and they aren’t cleaning it to Paul’s satisfaction.

Yo Paul - throw YOUR money at the problem!

BRITISH PETROLEUM (BP) is based in London - help them “save the earth”.

LOL, HYPOCRITE!

“There are a lot of people who agree with Paul McCartney. I, personally, know 4 of them. It’s like talking to a wall.”

I know ... and don’t understand that.

I point to our LIBERAL academics here. They are being BRAINWASHED to rejecting capitalism from K-12 and liberal universities/colleges, finish the job.

My question is, WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?

It is PARENTS that have the MOST INFLUENCE ON ANY CHILD AT ANY AGE? Too busy chasing the few $$$$ out there?

“The Beatles made the movie HELP! as a tax dodge. They had to get out of England awhile as they were making so much Beatlemania money that their tax burden was high.

Screw million dollar Marxists. “

Intereseting ... I didn’t know that.

As usual, LIBERALS don’t want to pay out ANY money EXCEPT it it is for themselves and gives them PLEASURE in some form. These are GREEDY, GODLESS, SLEFISH people who have MONEY as their god.

It's been going on since the Roaring Twenties among celebrities. Ever hear of Fatty Arbuckle?

I know ... but this was different.

It was out in the OPEN and in your face.

Vice carefully concealed is NOW OPENLY TOUTED.

I add, applauded and ENCOURAGED as what is right.

“We showed up a bit stoned, smiled a lot and hoped we’d get through it. We giggled a lot” - Paul McCartney

No it isn’t an advance quote about tonight’s Wednesday Night Live at the White House Party. It’s Paul’s recollection of making Help!.

If the truth be known, the anti-establishment, proletarian-oriented music started with the Weavers and Pete Seeger, way back in the '50s. Now those were some real subversives.

Not mere subversives. Naked Communists.

Yes, everything is a joke to them.

I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird.

Paul McCartney

Somebody said to me, ‘But the Beatles were anti-materialistic.’ That’s a huge myth. John and I literally used to sit down and say, ‘Now, let’s write a swimming pool.’

Paul McCartney

Where I come from, you don’t really talk about how much you’re earning. Those things are private. My dad never told my mum how much he was earning. I’m certainly not going to tell the world. I’m doing well.

Paul McCartney
