Like Some 5th Grade Punk Kid
I never cease to be amazed at the audacity of liberals.
Barack Obama tells his cheering crowd “They must think you’re stupid”, as he stands before the American people, claiming to be an innocent victim of a John McCain smear. As they say in the south, I would love to tell the Illinois Senator about himself.
Tuesday September 9th, 2008, Barack Obama was talking about the McCain/Palin campaign in front of a cheering crowd and said that you can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig. The crowd erupted into applause and cheering at this, and the man would have to be deaf or a moron to not know they were reacting to what he was saying about Sarah Palin. They heard the same thing that I and many other very angry Americans heard.
I don’t care what anyone says; he called Sarah Palin a pig with lipstick.
The man chooses his words much too carefully to have said this by some innocent mistake. In his whiny “Daddy, they’re questioning my patriotism!” denial, Obama claims this is just a McCain campaign smear, and that he, the messiah, is actually the victim and has done nothing wrong.
There is no way on Earth that Obama could not have known what that crowd was reacting to. He calculated it, and he said it on purpose, knowing full well that he would be called on it, but that he could plausibly deny it because there is no way to prove his motive.
He must think we’re all stupid.
And he gets double mileage out of it, because now he can stand there and pretend to be indignant and accuse McCain of slimy “Karl Rove” politics. He stands there and accuses Sarah Palin of playing the "Gender Card" as if he has never played the "Race Card"! Does he think we have forgotten that "Oh, and did I mention he's black?" comment? Very shrewd Senator, but just as transparent, and even more juvenile.
This isn’t the first time Obama has done something juvenile like this. He thinks we didn’t notice when he called Sarah’s hometown “Wasilly”, and then there was the time he slyly (he thought) gave Hillary the finger.
Obama reminds me of a character in a book I read when I was probably in 5th grade.[1] The book describes one young hoodlum in words to the effect of “The kind of guy who never played fair in his life, but always the first to yell ‘Cheater!’”
That’s Barack Obama in a nutshell (and many other liberals too…)
He reminds me of nothing so much as a 5th grade hoodlum who has done something he shouldn’t and then looks straight in your eyes and lies through his teeth that what he did was somehow an accident.[2]
I’m hearing other people compare him to a 5th grader also. I was watching the news, and I heard some women at a rally say that calling girls names is what you do in 5th grade, and they don’t want a 5th grader running the country. Amen!
Yeah, I know all the responsible people (Dennis Prager, Bill O’Reilly, etc.), said publicly that they don’t think Obama meant it that way. That’s what they have to say publicly, because sadly we can’t prove his motive. I would bet money that behind the scenes, off the record, and off camera they would agree with me.
And in the interest of full disclosure, I have every respect for a US Senator, but I have NO respect for Barack Obama. None. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Not because he’s a liberal and a Marxist, but first because he’s just another slimy, dishonest, scumbag, elitist, US military hating, Ivy League educated politician, playing very dirty politics while pretending to be something shiny and new.
My real heartache with this man who wants so much to be the Commander in Chief of the greatest force of fighting heroes in the world, is that he now claims that he loves this country, but he cannot deny that has a problem with our flag, and that he’s very comfortable hanging out with an unrepentant terrorist and other people who openly spew the venom of their HATRED of this country! (And because he’s a liberal and a Marxist who wants to gut our military, surrender to the terrorists, and raise my taxes so he can give tons of money to people who haven’t worked, and sacrificed and saved as my wife and I have!)
I would love the opportunity to vote for a black man for President, and I so wish that race were not an issue, but if we were all honest, we would have to admit that Obama would not be where he is today if he were a white man. He represents the ultimate Affirmative Action. I don’t hold that against him, but against his empty-headed, sycophantic, sobbing, slobbering, adoring and sometimes fainting fans from the DC Beltway to the celebrity mansions in Malibu.
Now, those who know me know that I will set straight a falsehood, regardless who it’s about. I believe we’re nothing if we don’t have our honor and our integrity. I could not live with myself if I cheated to win something, and I could not live with myself if I had to lie or even repeat something I did not personally verify true, to paint even someone I don’t like in a bad light.
To be fair, Sarah Palin came out swinging. No one gets where she is and does what she has without making some powerful enemies. She had to know they were going to come after her. But the kind of attacks I’ve been seeing on her family are reaching a new low of disgusting, dishonest, and just beneath the least bit of human decency. I think Caribou Barbie is kinda cute, but I’ve heard her called White Trash; I’ve heard her called Trailer Trash; I’ve heard her called W-H-O-R-E! You’d think she had a Nazi flag hanging on the outside of her snow machine garage! I don’t know that we would ever have seen this kind of attacks on a WWII vintage Nazi! Was it Diane Sawyer who asked Ahmedinijad what he listens to on his iPod? Good grief!
The truth is that John McCain has caught EVERYONE off guard with Sarah Palin, and the left wing of the DNC (is that redundant?), is in full meltdown. They are panicked, and they don’t know what to do. So they are defaulting to their natural state. They’ve become mean and nasty, and we all know that for all their talk about compassion, liberals as a general rule are meaner and nastier than anyone else on the block.
Is Obama acting Presidential? You have to be kidding me! And not even those on the right are calling him on his just immature behavior!
Someone acting truly Presidential would have recognized that the term “lipstick” has a new context, and would have avoided that word altogether. But he’s desperate and willing to gamble that he will get away with it. He knows the sycophants and the Kool-Aid drinkers will only cheer him, and the responsible people will say they don't think he meant it that way. The rest of us don't have a voice, hence the root of Sarah's appeal in the first place.
The empty suit who would be President is acting like a 5th grader, and in more ways than one. Freaking grow up already, Senator.
[1] It’s called Rascal. It’s about a 12 year-old boy in 1918 named Sterling North who inherits a baby raccoon to raise. Maybe I should add it to my reading list… It’s a great book if you have kids who would like a story about a boy and his raccoon in what seems like a simpler time!
[2] It shouldn’t come as a shock that one of those 5th grade hoodlums is doing life in prison for rape and murder in our tiny Kansas home town. His crime and trial were written about in Reader’s Digest in 1987 or 1988 because he was one of the first people ever convicted using DNA evidence. I’m sure a number of those 5th grade hoodlums are in prison or have done time by now; others have become politicians.
