Just in case there were any doubts as to how radical the Obamas are...

Read here; and here.

Nuff said.

Remaking Michelle Obama...

The Remaking of Michelle Obama?

In March of 2008:

"Obama begins with a broad assessment of life in America in 2008, and life is not good: we’re a divided country, we’re a country that is “just downright mean,” we are “guided by fear,” we’re a nation of cynics, sloths, and complacents.

In February of 2008

And now tonight:

"And that's why I'm proud of America!?!?"

I wonder how many psychic contortions she had to go through in order to blurt out that lie.

Tasteless, Offensive (and true?)

This week's New Yorker Cover:

It is said that all good humor/satire has a grain of truth to it. If not true in a literal sense, perhaps there are yet a few grains of truth to be had.

Obama: The truth hurts.

The list of what we can no longer criticize about Barack Hussein-- (oops) -- Obama continues. Even if it's the truth. Now it just so happens that whatever his wife says is beyond reproach:

Earlier, Obama told critics in an interview aired on ABC's "Good Morning America" to "lay off my wife."

The Illinois senator was responding to an online ad run by the Tennessee GOP that, during a four-minute video, replays six times Michelle Obama's comment that "for the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country." Michelle Obama has clarified her remark, saying she meant she is proud of the public's engagement in this year's political process. Obama called the ad "just low class."

Obama said that if he wins the nomination, Republicans "can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record. But, he added, "if they think that they're going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful, because I find unacceptable the notion that you start attacking my wife or my family."

This would be fair enough if Michelle Obama didn't insert herself and her words as part and parcel of her husband's campaign. But in that very same interview, Michele Obama did just that:

In the joint interview, Michelle Obama said, "We're trusting that the American voters are ready to talk about the issues." She also denied speculation that she has ruled out a place by Clinton on her husband's ticket.

"There's no way that I would say 'absolutely not' to one of the most successful and powerful and groundbreaking women on this planet," Michelle Obama said. Empathizing with her as someone who raised "a phenomenal daughter" while in politics, she said, "I think the world of Hillary Clinton," and added, "I know how hard, just in the little bit of exposure I've had to this, what she's had to deal with and what she's accomplished."

Word to Michelle Obama: If you can't take the political heat, then get the hell in the kitchen and bake some cookies.

Channeling Booker T...

Regarding "Poverty/Race Pimps" Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and now, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright:

"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs."

No doubt McCain will want us to be quiet about this, too...

Obama and more ties to terrorism... via Michelle Malkin and Powerline.

Yeah, I know John. Never. Never question the guy's judgment.

And the party faithful again scratch their heads.

More "Hope" from the Obama camp...(UPDATED & Bumped)

More "hope" that people will see him and his campaign for what it is, that is; for it looks like the malady known as BDS (Bush Derangement Syndrome) is slowly but surely migrating its way to MDS (McCain Derangement Syndrome).

Winged Hussar has a post that points us to a page (now no longer existent) of an Obama blogger (from Obama's site) who thought it would be cute for Sen. John McCain to "pay a deserved visit to the undertaker."

No Runny Eggs caught this screenshot before the post was finally taken down; the page was still up at 8:00am this morning when I visited it.

I'll let their own words speak for themselves, thank you.

Note that it was first posted on February 20, 2008, and not taken down until today, April 11, 2008.

Note also that the Obama campaign has complete editorial control of what appears or doesn't appear on the blog.

Between this and Jeremiah Wright (not to mention Barack's lovely and gracious wife, Michelle), can't you feel the love just emanating from that "campaign of hope," folks?

****UPDATE****

Macker has yet another example of an Obama nutter exhorting the Jews to vote for Obama or else!!!

In light of these revelations, I think that the Obama campaign needs a new theme song...

There was an old band in the early 1970s, the New Seekers, who did a Coca Cola Commercial....



~I'd like to fill the world with hope and furnish it with looooove!~

C'mon, Obama supporters--sing along!!!

***UPDATE*** 4/12/08, 11:40am

Yet even more love and hope from the Obama Camp...

“Our challenge is to get people persuaded that we can make progress when there’s not evidence of that in their daily lives,” he said. “You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are going to regenerate and they have not.

“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

To enhance your multimedia experience, before playing the video, set the tone with this midi of Can you Feel the Love Tonight"

How much "hope and change" and "bringing the nation together" can one man stand? O Obama--you da man!

"That dere Obama campaign blowed up real good, din'it?"

Welcome Dr. Sanity readers, and thanks to Pat for the link.

In such a hateful country...

Michelle Obama made out pretty well...

Mrs. Obama went to "work for the community" at the University of Chicago Hospitals in 2002 as the executive director of community affairs, a liaison between the institution and its surrounding community of rich and poor.

Two months after her husband was sworn in as U.S. senator in January 2005, she was promoted to vice president of external affairs and community relations.

In 2004, according to the Chicago Tribune, her salary was $121,910. In Zanesville that year, the median household income was $37,192. For the people of Zanesville, paying off student loans from Princeton and Harvard Law School is a problem they'd like to have.

[SNIP]

One of the corporate boards she sat on, according to Crain's Chicago Business, was that of TreeHouse Foods, to which she was elected in June 2005. That year she was paid $45,000 for being on the TreeHouse board. 2005 was a very good year for the Obamas.

The Chicago Sun-Times reports that Michelle was on the board of TreeHouse Foods in November 2005, when one of its divisions announced plans to close its pickle and relish plant in La Junta, Colo., displacing 150 mainly Hispanic workers.

The following year her husband, Barack, chastised Wal-Mart for its treatment of workers. The TreeHouse workers could have used a helping hand from Michelle.

Paying for summer camp got a lot easier when her salary at the University of Chicago Hospitals nearly tripled to $316,962 in 2005, just after her husband became the junior senator from Illinois. A sheer coincidence, of course, that has nothing to do with her husband casting votes on the future of health care in the U.S. Senate, or that her name might be a donation magnet.

Yep, only in old mean, hateful, awful, "G-ddm America!"
