[...] days of bad press about the amount of golf that Obama plays — see NoQuarter stories here and here — Obama needed to stage a photo op that most obliterated that image of him playing the links [...]

Carol, just remember that MY vote counts just as much as YOUR vote.

Catchy phrase…boy’s club!
That sums it up nicely!
I am hopeful that we have more REAL men now than in the past.
I nominate my husband and my son-in-law.
Our daughter and granddaughters have benefited by being treated as equals.
Our 6’7 son-in-law diapered, fed, bathed his babes, and has chaperoned, chauferred, every school event since.
I love him dearly…his only flaw was being a republican, but now so am I!
He played basketball for a national championship team, so he can take BO, and I think my granddaughter can as well for she is smarter!

He didn’t know it was to be played that night? God, you are deluded. You and your ilk are the result of the deliberate dumbing down of America. And that is why we are here.

Here’s $250. Please buy a clue.

Carol, those “same old primary stories” you dismissively mention are factual events that took place. It was a very offensive move on his part and I do not believe for one second that he did not know that song would be playing….nothing he does is impromptu. He riled up his base at the expense of Hillary and Sarah Palin and demeaned them on a personal level, which is something he did not do against his male opponents.

By the way, 8 US soldiers died yesterday in Afghanistan while Obama is thinking of the strategy for the war he called during the campaign the “right war”.

“He (Barky) clearly loved and respected his mother (Stanley Anne)…

OMG! LMAO! That is one of the funniest things I have ever read!!

Carol, your stupidity, while amusing to me, must be pathological to you.

I love how people like Carol dismiss every single FACT that clearly demonstrates that Obama can barely tolerate women – the fact that he has fewer women in his cabinet and WH than even Bush, let alone Clinton, his treatment of Hilary during the campaign (“your likeable enough” is something I’ll never forget), then Palin (“lipstick on a pig!”) as well as his never once speaking out about the vicious, atrocious things his supporters said about both women publicly, his throwing abortion and contraceptive rights under the bus every chance he gets, the women and children killed in Afghanistan by drone attacks he ordered, etc. etc etc.

But, then invests in him feelings that she can’t possibly know – “he clearly loved and respected his mother and grandmother.” There is no way Carol can really know that, and it’s not really evident from anything he’s DONE. As always, she just fantasizes that he is the ideal person despite evidence. There is literally nothing Obama can do to wake someone like Carol up to who he really is.

Carol, I truly feel sorry for you. You remind me of me, before this past election. I would defend any Democrat no matter what they did. Thank God, I woke up. How in the world do you know if his Grandmother really didn’t mind what he said of her? If you don’t believe that everything done in a Presidential campaign is done for effect (the song) then you again need a wake up call. As far as the Hillary stories, they’re not stories, they happened. Burying your head in the sand, doesn’t change what happened. I really hadn’t decided who I was going to back in the primaries until the New Jersey debate. One of the questions put to Hillary was something like, this Obama guy is pretty likable, how does that make you feel. She was totally gracious, saying indeed that he was a likeable guy, but that she was okay herself. Obama, nose in the air, took a look around, and then stated in an arrogant manner-that she was likeable…enough. That did it for me. I saw an arrogant individual, with a very thin resume, who didn’t deserve to be on the same stage with the others, because of his lack of experience, but was there for one reason only-the color of his skin. He has done nothing since, to change my mind, in fact his behavior has only reinforced my impession from that debate. Talk about morons, you bots take the cake. You will make excuses for this man at every turn. You make excuses for his relationships, with Wright, with Rezko, with Ayers, with Auchi, with Fr. Plegher. You make excuses for his thin resume, and his lack of legislative experience. You make excuses for not making his medical and college records available for scrutiny. You make excuses for him needing a teleprompter everytime he makes a speech, or has to answer questions from the press. Do I hate him? No, I don’t hate him, but I resent the fact that he thought he was ready for prime time when he wasn’t, and I resent all the idiotic people out there who refuse to open their eyes and see him for what he is-a guy who is in a job that is way above his pay grade.

Obama only published that fact (that he was born British, and since he never revoked said citizenship he still IS British) twice on factcheck and fightthesmears.

It’s the entire basis of the Kerchner suit, Obama admits against interest he was born British, he was thus never a natural born citizen, thus never eligible, thus we have a usurper installed.
And so they talk about his golf game?

oh please…those same old primary stories you Hillary fans are sooooo fond of. Give me a break. He never threw his grandmother under the bus for god’s sake. You really think that his telling exactly what his grandmother experienced or expressed offended her? that is the ridiculous crap that faux news spun when he made his speech on race in the primaries – his grandmother was quite aware of what her grandson was saying and was not offended. you Obama haters are so one dimensional you just don’t get it.

there is not one word or gesture obama could make or say that you won’t spin to throw out the negative on him. rumors, lies, whatever.

oh well, whatever keeps you guys happy – your opinions are your business. but your analysis of this person and his relationships or way of thinking is just that: ‘YOUR’ analysis and it reeks of your hatred for him, nothing more than that. why is your opinion on his gestures any more valid than my opinion on his family relationships??

(and no you moron, I know he didn’t write the words to that stupid song – i was being sarcastic). In fact, I bet he didn’t even know it was to be played that night – but if this is what you want to believe, go ahead – I guess it feeds your hate.

Oh my God, Carol-you need a wake-up call. Of course, he didn’t make up the words, but he did have the audacity to have that particular song played after one of the primaries, but certainly because it is Obama, we should give him a pass. This is the same man who threw he Grandmother under the bus, and might as well called her a racist. He showed up after she died. Oh yea, they had a real close relationship. Same thing with his own Mother. You have no idea what his relationship is with his immediate family is like, unless you want to trust every photo op as the “real story”. Maybe you would like to address the point it that Obama likes men better than he likes women. Please explain how Obama pretended to brush Hillary off his shoulders and shoes, after she annilated him in a debate. There is none so blind as those who will not see. Carol-you are definitely blind.
