The White Chick, the Cool Clique, and the Black Dude

They worship that dandy Obama like he's the second coming of Jimi Hendrix!!!

I remember the moment my irony meter popped out of the dash back in '92 like it was just yesterday.

It was during the 60 Minutes episode CBS produced to absolve Bill of any penalty for his horn dogging...

Inveterate liar? No problem, Bill. Fuck a snake once you get it taped to a 2X4? Well, we've all had our moments of weakness. A lack of character usually found in loan sharks, United Way managers, and U.N. delegates? Hey, somebody has to care for the children, right?

I knew he'd win once I saw that.

Now we know that Obama is hopeless without a script. That he had to create his fantasy persona of 'alienated minority' out of whole cloth between trips to the arcade and weekend pot parties. That he's got more "not present" votes than "ayes" or "nays" across his career as an elected official. That the only formative influences we can see are a virulently Leftists mom with poor mate choosing skills, a Weatherman, a BLT huckster, an archetype cast of Chicago corruption enablers, and a wife who, when the mask slips, makes Naomi Campbell look like Mother Teresa.

And Hillary gets to watch that every day.

What goes around, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera...

I don't know if he'll win the office. But barring something I am not equipped to imagine after watching the last thirty years of politics, he's got the nomination locked.

Come November, we will get the President we deserve, and the Congress that's right for our mood and attitude.

Never in our history have been such a shallow, petulant, fearful "gimme" bunch as we are today.

I'm voting for that old, tortured guy, come hell or high water.

Jumping Jesus. Was that artuicle written for a middle-school class project? It sure reads like it, full of innuendo and real, real, REAL short on actual facts.

But, actual facts doen't make a for a good old fashioned rambling rant, does it?

You want facts buy a pocket Euclid. What do you think this is anyway, the back lot at Wikipedia?

That's the sort of riposte that causes my giggle-glands to hyperactivate .. and they've been dormant for a few months now, for one reason or another. Thanks.

As for TimPundit ... you should've picked on someone your own pea-brained size, dude, that way you may even have succeeded in offending him - always supposing he could read, which quite obviously you can't.

Never count the Clintons out! They are the Rasputins of American politics. Barack Obama doesn't have the democratic nomination, yet, and I suspect he'll be eliminated politically or handed the vice president slot and told to shut up and sit still. Many think that Hillary has some type of homosexual dirt on both the Obamas and is waiting for August to drop the bombshell on them.

Okay, Hillary getting ravished on a pool table is NOT an image I really needed rattling around in my head, thanks.

The pleasure is to serve.

Great writing as usual. There used to be some really cool blacks in America before about 1964. Since then they have been pretty much self-frozen in "Hate Whitey" amber. This ain't gonna get them elected to much outside the urban ghetto plantations of their democrat "Massas."

Right except for one thing. It won't be the black kids rioting. It will be the rich white kids, stickin' it to the man in the name of the black kid who is their pet, their passport to Kool.

this would all be well and good if Obama were losing and Hillary were ahead mathematically. he is not, and she is not. your article is gold-plated bullshit, itself. but you know that already.

Posted by Anita at May 13, 2008 1:06 AM

Anita, Hello!! This is exactly what Gerard is saying, and part of the reason why. Hillary is behind and lingering like a party guest who doesn't know when it's time to go home.
I for one think the high school analogy works perfectly for the Dems. Most are stuck at that level of maturity in their thinking anyway.

Posted by waltj at May 13, 2008 5:41 AM

Anita, the only reasonable conclusion to be derived from your comment is that you did not read or comprehend the article.

Either that or your comment is gold-plated bullshit, but you know that already.

I'm hoping it is the former than that Waltj has now explained it to you.

Please let me know if you are now clearer on the concept.


Posted by vanderleun at May 13, 2008 7:12 AM

Oh, good one , Gerald. You're right. I should have known what I was getting into when I wrote my comment. If this is only a comedy website, boy I fell right into it, didn't I? ha ha ha! My face is red!

I just assumed actual comedy websites had some sort of humor going for them was all. Not a bucnh of unfunny little recess humor. My mistake!

US Politics as High School! ha ha ha what a unique and hilarious concept no matter how ass-backwards and forced analogy is.

Now, now, don't get snarky or we won't pay for the night nurse any longer.

Posted by vanderleun at May 13, 2008 11:26 AM

Too late. The night nurse quit. She mumbled something about you "can't pay her enough for this shit", as she walked out and left my wrist straps buckled.

Gerard, you're the funniest guy in the blogosphere! Intellectually funny. Love it. Thanks.

Posted by Maggie45 at May 13, 2008 6:52 PM

Alan Srout.....It's not the Clintons with the homosexual dirt....that story with larry Sinclair has already been out for a while. The main stream media is just not covering it, but bet you anything the republicans will. Don't blame the Clintons...blame the media and obamaniacs who chose not to allow BO to me vetted....there is Wright, Rezco, Ayers, chicago politics, etc.

Hey Roderick

You're a fool for taking GOD's name in vain. Get help. Why would the "moderator" OK blasphemy, anyway?
