Nobama for The New Yorker’s Correspondent
By Larry Johnson on July 20, 2008 at 12:15 PM in Barack Obama, Media, New Yorker
The phrases that come to mind? How about:
Petty, Small and Vindictive … Nobama for The New Yorker … No Room on Obama’s Virgin Air One … Nein Wilkommen!
By shutting out the New Yorker correspondent, is Obama engaging in a nasty little act of getting even, demonstrating contempt for a free press, or is it satire? Wilkommen to the whirlwind Obama tour! See the senator spend 24 hours in countries he’s never before visited. But “nein” to The New Yorker.
The Politico reports today: “The campaign received 200 requests for press seats on the plane. Among those for whom there was no room was Ryan Lizza, Washington correspondent of The New Yorker. The campaign, which was furious about the magazine’s satirical cover this week, cited space constraints.”
We’re just guessing that it wasn’t just the cover that enraged the thin-skinned Obama, but also the first long, factual account ever to appear in the media on Obama’s ruthless ambition, lack of principle, association with unsavory types in Chicago politics, and his empty record, devoid of any leadership on any issue. Ryan Lizza, former Obamaton party-liner, is now receiving his punishment.
Next stop for the untraveled Obama: the Siegesaulle, the Victory Column built as a tribute to Prussian military might and discipline after the Franco-Prussian War of 1871. In 1939, just before Hitler launched World War II, the Nazis added a gold layer to the monument and moved it to a long boulevard leading to the Brandenburg Gate. Initially, Obama demanded to speak before the Brandenburg Gate, an honor only extended to heads of state. The presumptive nominee crossed Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Checkpoint Charlie, infuriating her with his presumption. With this incident the German chancellor got a little taste of how foreign policy would be conducted by an arrogant and inexperienced Obama.
After his absurd stumble, Obama picked another site for his photo-op in Berlin–the Siegesaulle. Clueless does not begin to describe Obama speaking at the monument to Prussian militarism. Not since Ronald Reagan blithered into the Bitburg cemetary, where he laid a wreath on the graves of SS soldiers, has an American figure so misunderstood and mangled German history.
The Berliners now, of course, use the Victory Column as a rallying point for the annual gay Love Parade. This is their way of satirizing their tragic heritage.
Obama’s message? He seems to have borrowed Sam Cooke’s lyrics: “Don’t know much about geography, don’t know much about history, I just know I love you.” Yeah, love you back, baby!
Except The New Yorker. Hate The New Yorker. Yes, The New Yorker.
Achtung, Obamatons! This fate is what awaits you if you so much as utter a critical word or attempt dreaded satire. Keep chanting slogans in unison! No thinking! Kein denken! Danger! Gefahr! Vorsicht!

sorry for stating the obvious, but Obama is an idiot.
Thank you. It’s easy to forget the basics.
Obama BAD

ICH BIN EIN BEGGINER
Now that’s clever (though misspelled). Cheers to you if you made that up.
How do you say “Obama is an Asshole” in German?
Obama ist ein arschloch.
Cool!
Somebody should give him a tee short that says that. He won’t know the difference. Say it says I’m wonderful.
Brilliant!!!! That was a funny line!
It is not yet obvious to the vast majority of the media and most of the population, so keep on stating it between now and Novemeber. If it does not sink in by then this nation will just have to learn the hard way.
It will NEVER be obvious to the fawning, airhead media (ie. NEWSWEEK, TIME, etc.)
They have the same goal as Obama.
Obama wants to destroy America and so do they.
Actually I was wrong, about Obama, not the media.
I gave Obama too much credit.
What did Krauthammer call him?
A narcissistic poll-driven,money-raising opportunist, with no central core of anything.
Sort of like Bill Clinton
Yeah. Obama has done at least as much as Bill Clinton for this country.
He’s united the races the way Bill Clinton did. for sure.
Clinton can run circles around Obama.
It would figure that an old white man who reads KRAUT HAMMER, HEIL!, would diss Bill Clinton.
How did this place get infested with the CDS nutcases who believe in the AMERO!!!!! and shit their David Vitter Adult Diapers over World Nut Daily articles?
Get it through your poopy pants (since you HAVE no heads) — we’re voting McCain as a protest.
And we know YOU are part of the reason Hillary won’t be president to get America back on track from your FAILED FOREVER non-ideas.
Don’t bother getting up to reply. Stay on your knees to KRAUT-whatever.
MP98 –
Nein, ObamaBotten Dumpkoff. Du Bist Ein Arscholt. Nicht Clinton narcissistic…no, you moronic ObamaBot…It ain’t Clinton who’s the narcissistic idiot. He ruled successfully and gave your folks jobs and money in the bank for 8 good years.
Now.,quit reading intelligent columns and visiting sites that find idiocy repugnant, and get the hell back into your cave and plan your Denver jihad!
You obviously did not enjoy the Clinton legacy like your Barack Fuerher! Now, tell us ole boy, what part of hte Clinton years you didn’t like? THE PROSPERITY OR THE PEACE?
Obama your Fuerher couldn’t even see the meaning of his giving a speech at the Fureher site, and you think he’s got “core”, eh?
Go watch CHANCEY THE GARDENER. That’s Barack starring in Peter Seller’s Being There! It’s your movie, you anti-Clinton dumpkopf!!!
do bist ein gross dumpkopf!
Go find a friendly Obamabotic site and watch Rezko trial reruns, you misogynist dumpkopf!
New Yorker Rocks!
OBAMA IS A THIEF
STOLE ELECTION FROM SEN. ALICE PALMER
STOLE NOMINATION FROM SEN. HILLARY DIANE CLINTON!
CHANCEY THE GARDENER TO APPEAR AT THE FUEHRER’S VICTORY COLUMN…
NEW YORKER, WHERE ARE YOU WHEN WE NEED YOU??????
fly CANADAIR! And arrive before THE PRECIOUS ONE!
MP, the only reason Newsweek wants Obama is because Karl Marx isn’t available.
Right out of the George W. Bush playbook.
Actually Bush would have thanked the New Yorker for the wonderful profile, knowing the non-reading public would never be the wiser and conclude hey! The New Yorker likes him, he must be good! That’s what they did with Woodward’s books.
Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Obama?
Obama may not be strictly an idiot based on his affirmative action Harvard stint, granted. I am not a McCave nor Obama not even an uncommitted. But the word “idiot” comes from the Greek word meaning “private citizen”. So, he is Truly an Idiot and hopefully he will remain an idiot for the rest of his life.
I tell you what, I hope there are New Yorker correspondents already on the ground in Europe. Maybe we might here some true information instead of the edited, watered down versions, if they have sent correspondents to Europe..
Unfortunatly, Europeans seldom dig deep when it comes to American politics; all they want is change from Bush & Co. So they hear Obambi stands for change, they don’t ask what change. I’ve been reading several European reports and blogs, they are just xeroxing the MSM and are as misogynyc and vile as the US ones, with few exceptions. So don’t be surprised if they like him and his speeches.
If there are major gaffes that they write about, I’ll let you know here in one of the comments. BTW: Speaking at the Siegesallee is hilarious.
Obama is embarrassingly clueless when it comes to all things international. No wait! I forgot. He’s clueless on the economy. He’s clueless on national security. He’s clueless on veterans affairs. He’s clueless on energy and education and …oh crap, for get it. He’s clueless in general.
Yah….he’s experienced for sure. He’s experienced in two things: Campaigning and vindictive behavior.
NOBAMA 08!
PUMA!
definitely needs to go back and study history or hire someone to proof read is speeches. “the bomb on Pearl Harbor”, “57 states” “uncle liberated Auschwitz”
So now we know how Obama will behave toward reporters and media outlets who criticize him. Even Bush didn’t dare ban Helen Thomas completely. Maybe his tribute to Prussian/Nazi militarism isn’t just stupidity. Maybe he’s trying to tell us something.
No, but Bush does have his appearances very carefully managed with hand-picked audiences. I think to turn a blind eye to these constant similarities between Obama and Bush is to the peril of the country.
More of his blatant defiance of an opposition. He’s so arrogant he thinks he can announce his plan to have a military coup to the world (over and over again).
If you don’t vote Clinton or McCain in November, it may be your last vote ever!
Sorry - any opposition
Obama- 1 person 1 vote 1 time…
Rudi Giuliani routinely banned reporters with whom he disagreed.
So Barky and Rudi have another thing in common besides nasty wives.
Larry Sinclair’s site is shut down! I believe this man as they are working way to hard to keep him quiet. If the man was lying wouldn’t they just pick him up and put him in jail for slander??? I think Obama and his thugs have met their match. Tooo many people are watching this. Thousands over seas, too.
He had all this on his website. Too much was getting out. Go Larry! We are behind you my friend.
Come on, as much as I don’t trust a word Obama says, I still can’t believe there is a soul on earth who can give credibility to Larry Sinclair.
Larry Sinclair is a publicity-seeking, bottom-feeding petty criminal. Regardless of whether or not you support Obama, you should not give that kind of garbage a voice. Facts count.
Yet if he has no business being in the conversation why was he ever around THE ONE?
If you did mention the name Larry Sinclair , I swear I thought you were talking about Obamaidiot.
2 things could of happened to Sinclairs site- he either took all the money that his suckers–oops i mean followers sent him and ran
or maybe the host shut him down because he did post many AP owned photos and such without permission- violated plenty of copyright laws
Sinclair has about as much credibility as Obama.
I totally agree. I’ve been silently watching this issue since it started and I never once saw him produce one shred of information that he hadn’t already produced many months ago. If this really happened, I am very sorry and it’s awful, but I do NOT see one shred of information that makes me believe that it happened. When I do I will apologize profusely–as nobody dislikes Obama any more than I do. Till then, the guy has stretched his 15 minutes way beyond the tolerance of any patient person.
On the Larry Sinclair thing, I havent really been following it, doesnt seem a deal breaker to me, but just to ask the obvious…
When was the last time you had “proof” when you gave someone a bj in a limosine?
I am waiting on Rev. Wright to announce his death.
Larry sinclair has a new website and it is up and running just fine
http://larrysinclair0926.com/
Good Larry Sinclair drives the Bots crazy. They wish they were in the back of that limo.
I really never believed him, sorry to say.
You know the only part of the story that intrigued me was the Donald Young murder. He was a parishioner for decades and choir master and they have not been working day and night since to find his killer?
Why don’t they use the line of credit on Jeremiah’s home to pay for an investigation?
Plus the 2 other gay guys from tucc that were also murdered in the same time frame. hmmm
It got moved. It’s now LarrySinclair0926.com due to the crap that kept happening at wordpress.
there would be no need for any of the so-called major networks to send journalists overseas if ABC, NBC, and CBS still had foreign bureau chiefs. After Peter Jennings crashed and burned in the 1960’s at a network anchor he went to Europe for “seasoning” and eventually became ABC’s London bureau chief. Now “news” can best be described as “info-tainment” with glorified weather bunnies reading the news. The Brits have it right. They call their nightly news readers just that; news readers. They do not presume to confir the title of journalist on these “news personalities”.
Agreed, which is why we’re posting online here, eurogirl. But I wouldn’t call the socialist BS on your networks journalism either; and there’re plenty of European newspapers filled with articles written by your “journalists” that sound just like the sh#t over here.
I wasnt trying to confir in my statement that the european press is superior. Far from it. There is tabloid crap to last for days. Take a look at the sorry state of affairs in Italy when Silvio Berlusconi was both prime minister of the country as well as president of the consolidated media. I am merely saying that the American press confirs a state of importance on itself that it has neither lived up to nor is deserving of. Europeans, like most Americans, know that their media outlets are one-sided mukrakers. We the people merely need to do more to knock them, and their representatives, out of commission.
correction infir not confir
eurogirl–A funny thing happened to the Media in the last few years. They ceased to exist. They are owned by 3 major corporations and the News is what they tell us is News. I think this came as a surprise to Republicans just how cheerleading has taken over news coverage. When McCain took two trips to Iraq and Afghanistan recently — no reporters followed him. Now they are giddy at the prospect of a free trip. I thought you go where the news takes you — However,this is a sales job to promote Obama’s Foreign Policy gravitas and if they can’t sell us on Obama easily — they are going to use a tougher sell in the future.
The msm wants to play king maker and have anointed Obama just like they did in 2000 with Bush. The public is just to stupid to see it and the DNC has been taken over by the same groups that supported Bush in 2000.
Not very quick learners, are they?
as a former tv/radio reporter/producer I’m ashamed of the main stream media. what they have done this election season is appalling. I will never believe their news again without triple fact checking first.
The only reason the media is following Obama all over the world is because they are in love with him. I have never seen the media demonstrate bias remotely close to what is has for Obama. Obama is a media creation and they are doing a great disservice to this country. Of all the people to pick, they picked a narcissistic nobody. The media’s approval rating should be worse than Congress’.
The average person knows very little about politics and the media has been sucking them in for Obama. So in November the media can pat themselves on the back and feel good. Then what? Wait until January and let the mayhem begin.
It is the historical nature of the election. he will be the first white/black/arab bi-sexual person to run for the white house. it is quite an event
I can hardly wait for the combination they choose next time — provided we still have a country.
Amen to that
What was Jesse Jackson? He never got this kind of coverage. He ran twice.
In 1984 he got 8% of the delegates and 21% of the vote. He won won five primaries and caucuses.
In 1988 he was considered the frontrunner for the Democrat ticket. He more than doubled his previous results. He surpassed all the other candidates with pledged delegates. The Unions backed him. Then just as with Obama. Dukakis/Hillary started winning states. He couldn’t bring over/get the white middle class votes. It was significantly higher than in 1984, but he couldn’t do it. Same problem Obama is having now.
Then there was his half brother and his criminal activities that started coming out. We won’t talk about Obama and Roy(now Abongo) that most Americans know nothing about, that is a radical Muslim. Or his cousin Raila that ran his campaign on the same heading as Obama. The Candidate of Change. That now stands accused of genocide in Africa. That most Americans know nothing about, and that Obama campaigned for him in Kenya. He has never addressed that after his cousin lost over 6,000 Christian men, women and children were burned alive in churches. As well as the slaughter of an additional 450,000 people.
And Jesse carried Michigan. He didn’t even have to block their revote or take delegates from someone else to do it.
There are some of us who remember JESSE was the trailblazer not this joker.
Yeah, I’ve been asking that myself. And Jesse Jackson is an American.
Diana, I had not heard this story, where are you reading about it? Would like to read more about it. Thanks
you summed up this election to a T
They’re not in love with him. Their corporate bosses want him in office, so they can continue to pillage and scam the country.
I was waiting to see if the MSM would turn on him, as many expected or if he was their guy. If he’s their guy, that means the fix is in. Weird electoral problems relating to Diebold will be next, that is, after the Democratic Party makes double double sure that Hillary’s name won’t be put in nomination at the Convention.
And this is why I am still in blackout with the msm. I don’t buy newspapers anymore, or watch network and cable news.
I’ve also scheduled myself to be busy during the Convention Week. It will be the first time I’ve missed a convention since I was at my mother’s knee way back when. The night of the “big speech” I will be in an air-conditioned movie theatre. And If I have to I’ll stay to see the movie twice.
Obama is the worst thing that has happened in my lifetime. I am still in shock that he has somehow managed to usurp this position from Bush/Cheney.
Simply un-freakin-believable.
wow…The New Yorker not only thrown under the bus…but banned altogether from the area of said bus.
guess that’ll show anyone who wants to challenge the coup pahty line.
watchout obamaborgs, people are watching. buyer’s remorse has definitely set in.
keep writing, Ryan Lizza…keep the facts out in the light.
obama and co will not take the white house.
John McCain must get the votes. god knows the media is in the bag for the obamacoup, so it’s up to us little guys….you know, the ones with the actual votes.
i’ve been Dem my whole voting life, but this year i am voting country first.
obama is working for some pretty unsavory characters and i will NOT support that.
let freedom ring.
Amen.
*opens bible with right hand, clings shotgun with left hand, spits bitter juice in spitoon.*
silverfox — My country first — my politics second. McCain 08.
I could no more vote for Obama, than I could mistreat his typical white grandmother.
here here…I’m with you 100 percent.
“The New Yorker not only thrown under the bus…but banned altogether from the area of said bus.”
That should be their next cover….EVERYONE thrown under the bus!!!
Yeah, including ol’Jesse. You’d think they give him a bit of a pass on that gaffe, its not like the end of the world. Its not like poor ol’bambi actually lost his sack in that fray is it. It’s the contemptuous media that is perpetuating this bs.
I saw Ryan Lizza on a couple of talk shows and he is obviously a huge Obama supporter. His article did show Obama in an unflattering light at times but was not really that tough on him. He skirted a lot of issues such as his nefarious association with Rekzo and others.
I guess Obama can’t stand even the slightest bit of criticism. Just what we need in the White House — another secretive, thin-skinned jerk!
What people are missing is that Lizza clearly thinks he wrote a complimentary article. My sense of Obama before I read the article was that he was a narcissistic fast-track artist with no interest in substantive achievement; it’s all about successful networking and self-aggrandizement with him. When I finished the article, I realized that Lizza hadn’t challenged that view in any way. I was initially confused, because the tone certainly wasn’t that of an anti-Obama polemic. And then it hit me: Lizza sees being a narcissistic climber with a genius for networking as a good thing. Accomplishments are beside the point, and, anyway, hard work is for suckers. Another epiphany hit: this is how everyone in the New York and Washington media establishment feels. There’s nothing better than pulling a seven-figure salary to sit on your ass and ignorantly pontificate on the news. These media people are clueless even when they tell the unvarnished truth.
Exactly right.
I thought the same thing, that Lizza was really impressed.
This whole sorry episode reminds me of the superstar CEOs in the 1990s. The press worshipped these people with more money than most small nations, lavish, profligate lifestyles, and cold-hearted Gordon Gecko hardball business tactics. It’s like the lily-livered, effete press corps gets a thrill out of ruthlessness. They love “the narrative.”
Except, this isn’t a movie. The future of our country is at stake.
Kind of in the vein of you don’t sweat much for a fat guy.
He probably isn’t as of yesterday.
Obama’s Global welfare act, do you think the money will really make it to the poor?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iv8nxL_D9o
that’s depressing, revenge isn’t an attractive quality in a man who hopes to replace George Bush.
it is quite possible that obamaboy will make another new yorker cover or two……am patiently waiting to see…
Did this post just lose a whole bunch of comments?
Yep. Troll spoor.
Oh does that happen? I thought I was tripping yesterday.
Matt you soldout, you support the man that soldout this country with his FISA vote. Thats makes you an enemy of the people. I thought you were a constitutionist not a weak follower. Very dissappointing
Sleepwalking into the fall.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHP8PYEeaoI
I can’t wait and I hope those New Yorker covers are as truthful wrapped in ’satire’ as the first one.
Note to Obama: There’s more of us than there is of you. Get over yourself. America just isn’t that into you.
Larry, what is up with this guy? Can we hire you to investigate his birth?
He’s just another politician with no stomach for dissent. Nothing more.
And I thought we could’nt possibly EVER suffer a more incompetent and arrogant ass of a politician like Dubya…..well…I’ve been proven wrong. There actually is someone even worse than Bush!
Nobama!
PUMA!
If Obama gets in people will end up referring to Bush as the good old days.
So true. Is’nt that sad?
I saw a bumper sticker today that said:
Somebody else for president.
This Jack**s is an embarassment for the country. Why doesn’t he go to Kenya or Zimbabwe and just stay there. He has a better chance of becoming president in Kenya than in the USA.
Obama is stupid but he is not stupid enough to go to Zimbabwe — they have 10 million percent inflation there with 80% living in poverty and about half of their population left the country. We have to worry about Obama turning the US into Zimbabwe.
Ummm… how could Obama possibly turn the US into Zim? What does he have in common with Robert Mugabe? Oh, wait… I think I get it… You’re a bigot!
Took me a minute, but I figured it out.
A black man supporting Obama and calling everyone a bigot, how original.
Obama and Mugabe are two megalomaniacs and it did not take me a minute to figure it out, dumbass.
stupid
The Skinny Virgin on its maiden flight, tours Europe.
Barack is trying to turning NATO into NOT-A for those who don’t stick to his narrative.
He’s also done almost interviews with foreign press for its being more critical. Doesn’t give them room to fly either.
No room on the jet, lots of room under the bus.
Obama does a cameo as the March Hare.
I can’t believe no one will investigate this buffoon. Are there no more Bob Woodward’s or Deep Throats left in this world? Our media sucks! The National Enquirer will probably be the ones to break the story LOL.
Somebody in the Democratic party needs to show some leadership and take Obama to task. Is there anyone left in the Democratic party with any backbone?
Evidently not. This is a presumptive nominee airbag promising things he has no right to even speak about. He thinks he is already President. The man is dilusional and all those in the DNC are lapdogs. Unbelievable!
Bob Woodward is too busy being Bush’s lapdog. And Carl Bernstein, well Carl Bernstein is a hack enough said.
Snakes don’t need a backbone.
I didn’t believe it when they had a story that Steve McQueen was dying of cancer,but sure enough. The Enquirer is right many times.
LOL! Too rich Larry. Thanks for the read, my friend.
The idiot can never convince anyone that he is ‘presidential’ and that’s what this overseas p.r. mess is about. Germans(my mother and grandmother came from Alsace-Lorraine) have learned their lesson from having the worst dictator in history as their leader. They don’t take fools like Obama lightly, they see megalomaniacs for what they are after suffering alot of guilt because of Hitler. This trip will prove one thing regardless of what the networks say, that he is hopelessly clueless, inexperienced and couldn’t lead a scout troop. The new Yorker reporter should now do a follow up and really let him have it.
read more about this from a reporter who traveled with obama:
http://thevote.abc13.com/2008/07/on-board-with-o.html
This is a good read about Obama:
http://www.theconservativevoice.com/article/33352.html
You know even if His Magnificence, Sen. Obama is miffed, he could
beappear magnaminous and be a good sport. This is the kind of stuff that puts him off to average joes like me. Sheeesh. Again Larry, good one!That’s it, taters. He is ungracious when he wins, sullen when he loses. If he were one of those medieval guys he would be known as Obama sans noblesse. Bad mannered Obama.
Is that how his Grandma raised him?
Magnanimity is not in his repertoire.
Son of a bitch wants to heal the nations soul, though.
Well said rjj!
That’s the thing. He isn’t even smart enough or sophisticated enough to make it look like he isn’t spiteful.
Were Obama’s Lottery Winners Picked In Advance?
http://husaria.wordpress.com/2008/07/20/were-obamas-lottery-winners-picked-in-advance/
In bamaworld it is.
3 polls have Obama up 3 Gallup, Rasmussen and ABC/WSJ
whta is alarming is none of those poll have factored in PUMA. Many say that 17% of PUMAS will vote McCain and 18% will hold out until the convention to see if Hillary gets the nod. In any case scenario it looks bad for Obama -35% means a landslide victory for McCain. PUMA’s get ready to feel the heat from the DNC demanding you fall in line
oh..so sad for BO, his huge arrogant ego balloon is about to be burst.
And it will get worse. the entire press corp cant hold his closet shut, too many skeletons just ready to burst
It’s the DNC that NEEDS to fall in line with the majority of democrats and the MAJORITY of democrats voted for Hillary Clinton.
PUMA!
From the Boston Globe
The audacity of ego
And yet he tells Michelle: Stay Home! Too funny.
That shows his inexperience. You don’t anger the hands that feed your support. Hope the New Yorker now pick up their golden pens and start slamming him good! I wish it was MSNBC, because there is something really wrong with that station. It needs a Priest to throw holy water on it!
You are sooooooooooo right!
I know that’s right! And all of the hosts need an exorcism…
Maybe they didn’t notice it but he blamed the press for his having to explain his explanation the other day.
This is the Second Coming of the W. Same game plan, same empty suit, same scenario, same thuggery… and same backers?.
Barack: Equal-opportunity incompetence.
if you really want to get angry you should try reading some of the aol bloggers at political machine. what a bunch of puma bashers. i have to tell their asses off daily. they have been in the oreo yank since the beginning bashing hillary constantly. the one they can not explain is the aol straw poll that shows obama with just 33% to mccains 67%…….and thats almost 400,000 votes. the aol voting map is a beautiful shade of red. and mccain is winning every state. i realize that this is not a “scientific” poll, but 400,000 voters have participated, not 1,000 like gallup or rasmusen rigged for obama polls. puma
LOL, your blogger name cracks me up…hmm, very interesting about the AOL poll.
AOL is for kids. They overcharge for their cartoonish service.
I think this is why we’re now seeing more and more coming out about Obama in the MSM. He forgot who it was that kept him up there on that pedestal. Every day during the primary you go to google news there would be 6,000 article praising Obama. 100 with nothing good to say about Hillary or John. You might find one or two articles a week trying to praise them. When they get angry they wield a mighty sword. With his baggage I think he’s made a huge mistake.
I saw something disturbing last night. Farrakhan knows Obama. He knows the real Obama. He called him the “Savior”. Well, last night I found on Al Jazeera TV(translated by MemriTv) Farrakhan telling Muslims in the middle east that Allah has come to American and now she will be chastized. I’m starting to seriously think these people believe he is the reincarnation of Mohammed or Allah himself. Tell me something isn’t wrong with Farrakhan saying this to people in the middle east, and he wasn’t refering to Obama…
May he do it again.
His arrogance and the arrogance of his campaign and followers will be his undoing. Just like last time.
Many People are a product of their indoctrination.
I really do respect Muslim people, I try to look past where they’ve come from as I do all people on basis of their faith and beliefs, etc. I respect people based on their civility and good will, overall.
With all due respect to Islam, they are latecomers on the scene circa 625 ‘a.d.’. To me it’s just a spin off of the original Abraham / Sarah/ Hagar story. It’s a gender supeioriority thing from ancient times. Current day’s supposed intellectuals and powerful leaders are just trying to benefit from people’s indoctrinations. If you visit the video presented this morning showing a Taliban’s day in the park, nothing has really changed at all in millenium.
Of course, Louis new name Farrakhan is going to support and foster a second coming. It’s time for the sequel. You, know HoBos’s mama criss-cross country hopping, etc. Jesus too had to be born in a specific place in order for him to be eligible to be the Jewish messiah.
Farakhan’s group are not real muslims. They are black liberationists. They want to destroy white America.
What’s to respect about a people who enslave an entire gender?
Not to mention mutilate, murder and allow to die.
It’s like respecting the Salem witch murderers. The fact that the Puritans drove the beautiful MayPole pagans out of New England is as tragic as if King George had won during the Revolution. America has YET to recover from those shits.
Mealymouth “respect” for murderous neanderthal misogynists is no help to the modern world.
They need to JOIN HUMANITY or be completely ostracized. “No Quarter” applies here.
IT’S WRONG! A Saviour would not be dishonest and do the things Obama has done.
It is sooo wrong! I am stunned that people even in jest, refer to this POS as the ‘messiah’.
Diana, No and Yes.
Something is gravely wrong here. Yes it certainly SOUNDS like F is talking about BO, I find this deeply DISTURBING
There was also the post earlier in a different thread re: a WAPO story by a German journalist: Obama refuses to have foreign journalists travel with him (and speak to him very little in general). What happened to TRANSPARENCY??
Words, just words.
He can’t speak German. Only the rest of us are “embarrassing” because we can’t speak German. He, on the other hand, is Barack Obama.
“Ich… uhhhh… bin… ahhhh.. ein uhhhhhhhh…Arrogant Ass”
Isn’t it fitting that the hot dog came from Germany. Or as it is also called a weiner.

Ich Bin Ein Moad’dib?
He wants our kids to learn second language Why cant he? and Teleprompter is not a language.
At first when I heard about his working as a telemarketer, I wondered how since he is inarticulate. Then I remembered, they work from scripts.
He wants Negroes to stop feeding their kids “popeyes chicken” (newsflash to Obama, white people like Popeyes, too!) — but he doesn’t say jack shit about SMOKING, does he, the health nut HYPOCRITE.
He’s probably afraid they are talking about him behind his back.
Well this is one of the best things I have read all day…
EDITORIAL: Housed
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2008/jul/20/housed/
Did you read this post at that Washington Times editorial?
This suggests a number of people are pissed off about the same thing, but they call that same thing by different names. Something to ponder.
At least when Bob Hope went on a tour…he made them laugh.
Oh, I don’t know. This is pretty funny. The idiot…
I don’t think Obama realizes that the press is a club. They all know one another and one thing they really rebel against is watching one of them be blocked out from covering an event out of spite. They all take it personally. It could be them next….if they don’t “behave”. I think Barack Obama just made a cardinal error by blocking out an arm of the press.
Good.
Obama’s ego is so large it eclipses his brain. How else do you explain the decision to retaliate
against the New Yorker? Talk about chilling free speech in the press.
I hope you’re right and the press will be less enamored of him as a result. Isn’t it usually this way with certain people? They excuse bad behavior until they are the victim.
The only thing Obama has ever fought for is himself. Everyone else is dispensable. Every policy can be twisted, changed, and overturned. Every promise can be broken. When things go wrong, it is everyone’s fault.
It will be interesting when barky gets to Germany if he sees the graffiti that says AMIGO (its everywhere) and confuses it with the nice HJ’s being friendly instead of what it really means is American GO! HOME!
The Germans love everything American even when they get it wrong. T-shirts that say Boston Nicks, Washington Cowboys and such. But they don’t like Americans, we are too arrogant for them, so I wonder what the will think of barky.
Barky may not be American. He doesn’t seem to know where he was born. In two different hospitals.
Maybe he should have been named Soloman’s verdict.
Maybe he was really long.
He is a snake, after all.
He’s only in it for the applause.
CASH.
Here is a great article that tells it like it is if you are perceived as dissing the annointed one… This makes what happened to the New Yorker O-fawner predictable.

Serves Rizza right. He is a New Republic alum. The magazine is Hillary haters headquarters.
Rizza is a member of the Obama groupies in the media.
Not crying about Lizza, really. Still, the petty vindictiveness of the Dictator wanna-be is the story here.
It’s a good thing to have a worshiper get a taste of the real thing.
I do hope that the recent issue saves the fate of the New Yorker magazine. They actually have more balls than I ever gave them credit for. Given the factual nature of the article, they would have to know that Obama would throw a temper tantrum. I’m more impressed with them the more I think about the risk they took.
I’ll be curious as to their next step as well. Now that they are on the outside looking in (frankly, it is more fun here); will they continue to press the facts with even harder hitting journalism? No longer a sleepy magazine, I say run with it.
From what I heaed that the polygraph were paid 250.000 each to say they could not tell of the test so therefore ..nothing.Obama will pay anyone.Now I say Bin Landon We got clopse but when we got there Bin Landon was gone.Someone had to tell him something to run before we get close and times just where he was and took off.I saw that Bin Ladon is dead and the white Houses wants us o believe he’s alive.But I wonder who it was that end out a video that looked like Bin Landon.So I went searching and there were pictures and an artical of the one used to let us think it’s ben Laddon.
Now Obama workes in sericuirty and he has not did any oversight ior went to these countrys as John McCain has.Obama always seams to want to do something to get somehthing and then he doesn’t do a thing.This is another one of his games to think he knows something,which he don’t only that it’s all about how to gain into the money and use our country.
No one news or Obama has said a work on his birth certificate yet…Where is it.Obama is sneaky in doing things to gain what he want to do.He will try and take all,opure right’s away.I don’t trust him or his reason why he wants our white house being he has not been in the senate long and he did not do much for the people as to..well I call it help.He didn’t even do that.He used the poor people to gain grants and then rezko and him split it.The people were left without heat in the winter for 6 weeks.The play was mostly boarded up.The fence killed a little boy.no running water nothing.tHEY TOOK THE GRANT MONEY ALL OF IT.THEY USED OUR GOVERMENT TO MAKE THEM MONEY THE STOLE FROM THE TAX PAYERS.Obama dnc moved the dnc to his state and went to look at the country map of the high profile homes there to change that into his distict because his district is all ranned down and the people there are left without nothing.And Obama and the DNC thinks they are going to get all the highrisers and more of what Rezko got from grants him and Obama and now Obama is playing on getting them cause guess what?The goverment owns them.
Never Obama
Guess what happened this past weekday morning (July 16)? On a fluke I went to the Rockefeller Starbucks in my bldg for a free coffee and saw Harold Washington there. He kind of waved at us a we looked at him,then I HAD to go up to him. I apologized for
interupting and complimented his commentating and then asked him when they were going to start reporting on PUMA Democrats? He said he hadn’t heard of PUMA’s so I gave him some quick info and the person with him (NBC correspondent, Ron Allen, NBC News) gave me his card and told me to e-mail him information which I did–giving websites, etc.
NOW, MAYBE..someone will report our cause? Or most likely they have their own reasons to ignore us?
Good work!
Good job Jeanine! Eventually, they will have to acknowledge us. We all need to pestering them. I think that was very smart of you…taking taking advantage of the moment. Well done!
Go, girl!!!!!
Brava!!!
Not even nominated and already has his “Helen Thomas”

that’s odd. it’s some blog, not BBC (for which thanks).
You guys at No Quarter kept a list of the people Obama threw under the bus during the primaries.
I would welcome a list of news organizations added to the Obama hate list as well if it were faithfully updated.
Are you certain about the Siegesaulle, Johnson?
Sarkozy could get a skosh pissed off if the Prince of Platitudes greets him on Friday fresh from commemorating Prussia’s crushing of the Third Republic on Thursday.
So it goes.

Get emails out to above people.If you do get a return receipt on your email.
See Obama is doing the same thing to the New Yorker that Bush did to get the media in line with him. Hi is acting the Strong, Hard Father Figure Obama punishing the mischievious new yorker teenager - taking away the ride, until apologies and falling in line are clear to daddy Obama.
I would get my own ride and rip daddy O a new one all the way to November - Then I would crush him out of a job. Go McCain! I’m done with democrats. Well unless Hillary can be elected at the convention. I’m holding out hope!
Stop calling BarryO the messiah please.
BarryO is a GASBAG!
CALL HIM A GASBAG FROM NOW ON!
NO GASBAG BARRYO FOR ANYTHING..NOT EVEN DOG CATCHER.

YOU ROCK!
This is the most intelligently pithy, and fun to read, post I’ve read anywhere in a long time!
THANKS! And how about more regular posts like this one, eh?!
Wonder if the ObaMyopics can’t see that their uncool choice of venue is as uncharismatic as their leader’s xeroxed anorexic presidential resume!
ACHTUNG OBAMATONS!
HILLARY DIANE RODHAM CLINTON ‘08
Go PUMAS, roarrrrrrrrrrrrr
JESSE JACKSON, WILL YOU BE GOING TO BERLIN?
YOU KNOW DAMN WELL OBAMA AINT’ THE SHARPEST KNIFE IN THE DRAWER, BUT YOU SURE ARE ALLOWED TO BRING YOUR OWN..
ACHTUNG!
Gee, gosh, this will be so good for poor Larry Sinclair to meet up with Barack OBummer at the Victory Column where the GAY PARADES are taking place!
So nice of Barack to give Speech to the unmentionables…so historic…so clueless…
Day by day it looks as if the one who needs the Rockin chair is not M c Cain…it’s the young, pretty, petulant, vicious, vindictive “who’s that pretty boy in the mirror there?” Obamarama!!
The story by Lizza in the New Yorker was extremely tame and rather ineptly written. If it were’nt for the great untitled cover by satirical cartoonist Barry Blitt, the Canadian genius, it would have been just another media mediocrity, a puff piece about the Madison Avenue-inseminated charisma candidate!
PWhat I’d like to see is a NoQuarter magazine that features satirical commentary and cartoons on the front page based on reader’s submissions of various Obamabotic concepts. And, given Barack’s legendary flip-flopedness, we’d have enough material to carry us through to the 2012 election of Hillary Clinton!
Let’s go for it, Pumas!
Amazing how people can go on and on talking out of their butts and choosing the most offensive and insulting words, only to show their own utter ignorance. Do any of you ever actually READ or LISTEN TO Barack Obama? ‘Nuff said.
