At least she didn’t ogle
When female journalists aren’t staring at Barack Obama’s jeans, they’re bawling their eyes out. Via Eric Gargiulo, here’s MSNBC anchor Mika Brezinski talking about how her producer gal pal broke down and shed tears of joy upon learning that their savior had clinched the Democrat presidential nomination.

Obama won? Funny I didn’t see it in the news anywhere.
Thats our unbiased media for you. Ugh. But on the plus side, when his image is deflated by reality, the let down is going to be big.
Hey, at least they are not biased.
sar/
My only concern here is that the media do its job of investigating and reporting on both obama and mccain. Unfortunately, the media appears to be in the obama camp and will either do its best to protect him or its best to damage mccain.
I understand her pain. I cried too. I did not have a Chris Matthews moment (a personal summer?), more of a sinking feeling.
But these media types serve no useful purpose.
Mika Brezinski makes me ill with how liberal she is. Every thing she says is “Obama this and Obama that”.
That station is soooo one sided.
More proof of the fact that the left does everything based entirely on an emotional response without a single bit of logical thought and assessment …
A bunch of lost sheep looking for …
BO (Peep)
What about her leg? Did it tingle? Inquiring minds want to know.
Where’s Lou Grant when you need him?
This is such a disingenuous post. That producer wasn’t crying because she thinks Obama’s the messiah — and no one implied that on the footage you link — she was crying because of the significance of the nomination and what a monumental moment it was in our history. She, like most people I know, had likely always assumed something like this couldn’t possibly happen in her lifetime. Being moved by how far America has come isn’t the same as being on Obama-bot, although leave it to conservatives to see it that way.
Sigh.
Visual ipecac (to induce vomiting).
ok so it’s racist to vote against him because he’s black… but how many people voted FOR him JUST BECAUSE he’s black, just to experience this watershed moment in history… lib pretzel logic
“admitted racism” on who’s part???
The lefts worship of this guy is almost religous. It is sad to see how completely taken in they are. I imagine this is how it was with hitler and the germans. (Not comparing obama to hitler in polcies) Both were great orators, both were charasmatic people. Hitler turned out to be an evil troll but the jury is out on obama.
Gawd, I think I just threw up a little in my mouth. I guess I have to wash my disgust and nausea with some mylanta and ginger ale.
Obummer, with all his lightweight, rhetorical spin, is the most inexperienced candidate of a generation. I hate to say this, but even Clinton was more qualified than this egocentic, bombastic, empty suit.
I’ll be sure to get my puke bag ready when the next fawning broadcaster (Sissy Matthews, Olberdoom, and Alan Combuya) comes on licking this lightweight’s pant leg.
Yes, I know, too much imagery. Ewwww…
nyk, oh please. It is almost sexual the way the media fawns over obama. One giant obama orgy.
Man, it’s gonna be ugly if McCain wins.
#17, it will be unreal. I am considering being armed that night.
Heather:
You just gave me my first real, inspirational moment for an ironic smile.
***Hugs***
You missed it? Heck, the Democrat nomination in Denver, the election in November and the swearing-in in January are merely formalities for our mutual edification.
Surely, you jest. The media’s only job is to smoothly pave the way for the Obamessiah’s coronation in January.
The MSMis the tool of the left. They failed with Gore and Kerry. Third time’s the charm, heh?
Ann Coulter’s new name for Barry is “Obambi.”
John! Paul! George! Ringo! Barak!
We’re the MSM!!! We lurve you!!
Please diddle us, daddy!!
We want to be so bad for you!
Today’s MSM: Giving women’s suffrage a bad name.
safety gear for reporters uhh “servicing” the obama campaign.
Michelle Obama is going to have a real problem. These reporter-ettes are one set of kneepads away from: I want to have his baby.’
Nyk said:
That’s funny I thought it was because she was attracted to the smell of dirty, Marxist scumpots like ‘Obama the weakling’ like so many other brainwashed, degenerate youth are today.
goldwater,
Go easy on nyk, its not easy being a sheep like follower and admitting to it.
wow. the nutjobs are going to go bonkers when their messiah only wins 10 states and gets trounced. Can’t imagine what type of theories they will come up with. Oh yeah, I know. White americans are racist.
There is no way he can win with getting only 30 percent of the white vote. Dems can’t see that though.
I don’t watch this garbage (for a reason).
According to the MSM, Obama has won the Presidency already. They are all geared up now to attack McCain, and anyone else who gets in BO’s way. His supporters remind me of people on the Titanic…first cheering on the iceberg, then having a big party when the ship starts sinking. With the democrats controlling congress, then winning the presidency, and selecting supreme court justices, the USA might as well be the Titanic…it will sink very quickly.
Exactly. People voted for Obama because he is black.
Brezinski, Brezinski, Brezinski…where do I know that name.
Oh yeah, the failed national security adviser to the failed administration of Carter.
No, no.
You vote for someone who’s black because they’re black, then you’re being (if white) magnanimous or (if black) supportive.
You vote for someone who’s white because they’re white, then you’re being (if white) racist or (if black) a sell out.
It makes perfect sense to me….after a few drinks.
I gotta believe MM is crying tears of joy as well. Not because she has a crush on Senator, but because traffic around here is going to go absolutely through the roof over the next 8 years. The MM blog entries will almost write themselves.
Unfortunately, for all us hard realists, the American Idol generation will not wake up and see the truth until some months after Obama’s inauguration. Instead of the Promised Land, they will finally get to see what a real recession looks like (as opposed to current media hyped recession). It will be a hell of a lot worse than anything they have allegedly suffered under George Bush.
Obama followers
hitler followers
Notice the same fanatical look?
nyk is right–this is a monumental moment, what with Obama overcoming his blackness and all. The first black candidate, in our own lifetime! A black man, who happens to be black, blackety-black black. Bullack!
I read about this earlier today and found it nauseating!
What has happened to GE? First, they conduct immoral and outrageous deals with Iran, deals that are responsible for the deaths of numerous American soldiers, and now this! Don’t they care that a relatively minuscule communications operation like nbc, with it’s overt leftist bias, is about to bring down one of the largest conglomerates the world has ever known?!
I pity anyone who still owns stock in GE, a once well respected company that cared for its investors, and find it sad that they would sit idly by and allow nbc/msnbc (same diff) - a lackluster liability among GE’s corporate holdings - to bring their stock and investors to the verge of financial ruin!
But then again, the deals with Iran have already set GE on that course, so I guess they’re just playin’ through to the end.
nyk
You have illustrated very candidly, without even knowing, the reason Obama is the Democrat nominee. This is the nth degree of affirmative action. What really burns me is the insistence the left have for this being such a momentous occasion. A black man being nominated for President in 2008 is no surprise to me, when we have a Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Colin Powell, I haven’t the time or space to list the many African Americans who are mayors, and of course who are in Washington, why should this be so monumental? This isn’t 1968. The problem with Obama is he isn’t where he is because of his accomplishments, he there because of people like you, who are so pleased with yourselves for being so ‘progressive’, that you’d pick the first glib-tongued African American, no matter what. This is exactly what William Ayers was banking on when he kick-started Obama’s political career, being in academia, he knew how easy it is to lead the sheeple.
B. Hussein is a lot like Clinton. And keep in mind that Clinton followers never turned on him, or her, until B. Hussein came along.
So I doubt seriously they’ll ever admit he does anything wrong. Everything will continue to be Bush’s fault and the e-vil Karl Rove and that’s that.
Hussein may get in because of the conservative/republican split. That’s how Clinton got in.
- nyk
Significance? It’s only significant because of identity politics. If people paid more attention to his policies (or lack thereof when it comes to detail), experience (or rather, lack thereof), etc. etc, the only significance of this nomination would be that it’s the least qualified most naiive candidate to gain a presidential election since Jimmy Carter.
Monumental moment perhaps, but it will be remembered decades from now as a monumentally bad one if he indeed gets elected. It’s significance will be remembered not for signalling some great progress on race issues, but rather as a symptom that they still existed, an occasion where the progressiveness of nominating a black candidate mattered more to many of his star-struck voters than any substance his platform might have.
If the roles were reversed, and Obama was the Republican candidate and McCain the Democratic candidate, this hoopla and starry-eyed behavior wouldn’t exist.
Ha, women don’t need MSM to give women’s suffrage a bad name; women do it all by themselves.
Ever since Bill Clinton won in 1992 and I saw some Hollywood bimbo fawning over how “cute” he was and how she had to vote for him, I began to realize that women’s suffrage may not have been such a great thing.
Face it. Since the 20th century, and women have entered the political arena, things have been going downhill.
Feminism has destroyed the family, hence the downslide of Western civilization.
Political correctness, or “feminine sensitivity writ large”, as Florence King described it, is destroying this country in its every social and political aspect. It has feminized men (i.e. lgm, rusty, et al), demonized masculine initiative, and destroyed the martial spirit necessary to fight enemies.
Multiculturalism, which is an extension of PCness, is also destroying Western civilization by its moral equivalency and permissiveness. It dilutes American character, and equalizes the bad with the good.
No good has come from these movements, which owes their incubation and spread from feminism and are maintained by stupid women (and girly men).
Frankly, I’m willing to give up my vote and give it to 30+ year old landowning men who have a better grasp of reality than bimbos who moan for Obama.
Didn’t Martin Luther King say he couldn’t wait for the day we would judge a man by his character? I guess it still isn’t happening, because all the excitement on the left is about his being black. A quick look at Barack and his buddies’ character, however - ain’t pretty.
Personally I don’t even care that Obama is black I care because he is a sickening liberal, Marxist. Do you think Alan Keyes would ever get this far? Believe it or not Thomas Sowell has significant influence in my political-economic philosophy. I could care less if Obama was purple with yellow stripes the fact is he’s a communist POS for lack of a better term.
Right on Yashmak! Unfortunately nyk is a product of affirmative action and she undoubtedly believes that we live in the US of KKKA. Blacks like her are truly clueless to black politicians’ policies. They only care that the black dems get elected to promote affirmative action and welfare amongst her community.
I’m not sure this sweeping statement can be validated. The decline of Western civilization can be attributed to women entering politics? Um…okay. As a woman who wasn’t around to experience the good old days of oppression you long for, I’ll just have to take your word for it.
Call me when the shuttle lands.
Oh, yeah. Conservatism is known for its innovative, creative and independent thinking. I guess that’s why its opposite is called “progressivism” (that’s sarcasm, btw, since you guys seem to need a tag to alert you to it). And unfortunately, as most of you loudly complain here all the time, little by little, progressivism always wins. Wish as you might, the ’50s aren’t coming back.
And if you have such a problem with the way things are going in America — if you don’t love it, that is — then you know exactly what you can do.
Please. Like you know any “blacks like” me. What? With parents who worked hard so I could have a nice life and go to good schools? You’re such a total ignoramus and it’s apparent every time you appear here.
Moron.
Nyk said:
Um… Conservatism happens to be the bastion of entrepreneurship, you know capitalism, the word that makes socialists cringe. Name one innovator of our time, in the last century that was ‘all for’ socialism and higher taxes.
Wtf Nyk thought you attended an ‘excellent’ school.
Yikes, just a few short miles from my home tonight the Messiah is coming. I was watching the local news and honestly, you would have thought that Jesus Christ himself was making an appearance. They even had one guy who had a PR Obama plate on his car he had ordered and paid the specialty amount for. Oh well, I guess Jimmy Webb and Timmy Kaine will be there as well as Mark Warner. Should be interesting.
How condescending! It is almost as if Mika is saying that you can expect those African American chicks to be overly emotional and not know nuthin’ ’bout birthin’ babies, Miss Scarlet!
Atheling, you’re kidding right? Granted there are some pretty stupid women in Hollywood-sharon stone anyone, but you can’t think women having the vote is a bad thing do you? Please don’t lump the fairer sex together with these crying producer or silly hollyweird types. Our hostess is a female after all!
Can you give us one example of a innovative, creative idea from Obama? I have spent quite a bit of time on his website and can find nothing but the same old, failed big government ideas being passed off as change. Please, explain to us what is new here.
Actually his policies contain much more detail than McCain’s (at least in what has been made publicly available). And what specific details did GWB have in 2000? As for experience, I guess you’d have to go back to Lincoln to find someone with a similar “lack of experience”. As far as experience, GWB is much more on par with Carter than Obama.
Following along with your hypothetic, if GWB were a Democrat, I think the “starry-eyed behavior” would still exist.
Eew. I couldn’t watch it. The description was agonizing enough.
atheling #42. Very intuitive and well said.
terrig:
Yup, I’m throwing the baby out with the bathwater, but if there is any group who can be held accountable for political correctness, multkulti krap, and feminism, it’s women.
You think that stupid Hollywood bimbo is an anomaly? Go to any college campus and talk to the women and girly men there. They will reflect the same inane, juvenile and feminized attitude.
If you did a “Jay walk” (as in Leno) and randomly asked women on the street if they think government should solve all our woes, what do you think would be the percentage who say a resounding “YES”? I would bet my bottom dollar that it would be well over 50%.
Women are socialist by nature. Where do you think the “nanny” state came from? Why the word “nanny”?
Was the “progressive” idea to put a cap on gas prices recently an example of this? It was tried once in the 70’s to disastrous results. Maybe they forgot and had to re-innovate it. heh.
Well, the conservative Republican party WAS the one that pushed for racial equality in the 60’s, against marked resistance from the “progressive” Democrats in Congress. Generalizing cuts both ways nyk.
Conservatives also pushed for Capital Gains tax reduction. When those were in effect, our federal government saw increased tax revenues available to use on social programs. As soon as they were repealed, a “progressive” move, tax revenues decreased. Less money for social programs. Good job on THAT one progressives.
Conservatives don’t stand against progress. We do, however, stand against a candidate like Obama, whose policies are likely to damage, perhaps severely, the future of our nation. All the generations of Americans have built one hell of a country here, and damaging its future is not progress. If handing more power over my life’s decisions to the government is what qualifies as “progressive” (and it seems to be nowadays), I am indeed happy to call myself a conservative and fight against progressives.
You don’t have to take my word for it. If you had a decent education and half a brain you would be able to deduce it.
But then being a liberal means never having to use brain cells.
I feel bad for Nyk’s parents who spent all their hard earned money to have their little girl come out less intelligent than when she went in. Did they teach you about rational thought?
Absolute disagreement. I cannot believe this is true when I have yet to meet any one of his supporters who can cite any details of his policies. . .except of course his incredibly naiive ideas about foreign policy. Obama’s policy there is indeed known, and is totally bereft of acknowledgement of history.
I’m sorry, what does that have to do with the here and now? Is that equivalence I hear being drawn?
Yeah, the difference is, Lincoln actually had GOOD ideas, and wasn’t saddled with (seemingly) endless quantities of shady/racist supporters.
They don’t teach logic in school anymore. Just good ole marxism and political correctness. These little darlings come out of those poison ivy league schools with less rationality than a 7 year old. Their critical thinking skills are non existent.
All they can do is parrot the party line while they walk in lockstep with the leftist mantra a la Hitler Youth.
jsr - B. Hussein does too have creative, fresh, new ideas!!

Atheling, you can’t throw all of us out. I was one of the rare birds who was not a starry eyed liberal in college or anytime in my life (having had to bag the groceries of food stamp recipients who bought filet while my parents who both worked got sirloin once or twice a month opened my eyes) and paid the consequences in being failed in a poli sci class by a liberal turd prof who didn’t like that I said Reagan would be one of our greatest presidents.
Yes, there are plenty of stupid people out there but I blame Sesame Street and the public schools for this problem. I spent some time teaching in the public schools and got in trouble many times from not towing the “party line”. However, have to say that I didn’t care and I still keep in touch with some of my former students who said I helped them to think and look at different issues and when they did get to college they challenged their teachers on some of this garbage they were throwing at them. One was a pretty liberal student and she worked on Mark Warner’s first senate run but she said she soon saw the light and by 22 was a registered republican. However, I just can’t fight the fight anymore in the public schools for a lot of reasons but mainly it’s my daughter with special needs. I can promise you my son will go to private school and perhaps may even be home schooled (I still have my teaching credentials) and West Point took about 6 or 7 home schoolers this year into their plebe class.
Unfortunately, these liberal women are usually pampered pigs who haven’t had to do much or they’ve been on welfare their entire lives and feel it’s owed to them. I have generally found most of the women I know when they get their first out of college paycheck suddenly have a lighting strike and see the light.
PS - please ignore all the
puppetmastersmentorsbehind the curtain,under the bus… dang IN the bus, the Hope and Change bus.. yeah that’s it.I don’t think anyone would credit “critical thinking” with contributing to the notion that women in politics are slowly destroying society as we know it.
You’re conveniently forgetting how conservatives left the Democratic party (for the Republican party — which has become a safe haven) after the CRA was passed. The parties have been defined by that exodus since.
terrig, I hear you. But then you get idiots like nyk et al and it reinforces the fact of how fast we are sinking because they have poop for brains.
Seriously, I do think the voting age should be upped. 18 year olds today are not like 18 year olds 100 years ago, or even 50 years ago.
Diane West is right about the death of the grown up in American society.
Maybe you should take a look at his website were he offers more detail on his plans. Could you please tell more were I can read about McCain’s details? I’d hate to have to rely on hearsay from supporters.
So it’s the quality of ideas not experience that is important. I can agree with that, however it kind of shoots holes in your “lack of experience” argument.
Wow, great answer! You just proved my point. Your parents must be so proud of you! /sarc.
I have two women senators. When I write to them and tell them how gas prices are destroying the economy, and creating a new class of poverty from the middle class, their response is to raise taxes on oil corporations.
Now, do you think that these two women actually used any “critical thinking skills” to come to that solution? Who do you think will end up paying those higher taxes? Has it ever occurred to these two women that perhaps the oil corporations will simply raise the price of gas even further?
Do you think their “critical thinking skills” have ever entertained the laws of simple economics? Perhaps that if supply exceeds demand, the prices go down, and if demand exceeds supply, the prices go up?
Try not to let your head explode when it attempts to wrap around that alien concept.
Joy,
It does get frustrating and I don’t know why I bother. Several times I have offered to discuss Obama’s so-called new ideas both here and real world and have yet to get a coherent thought.
I will concede that conservatives can be vague about their ideas and solutions to problems, but not nearly to the extent of progressives. However, conservatives (at least this one)don’t necessarily want a government with big, sweeping ideas. What we want is a government that does the basics and does them well. Administer justice, defend the borders, pave the roads, run good schools, provide a minimum basic safety net etc… So any big conservative ideas should mostly involve reducing the role of government but increasing its efficency.
Since by definition progressive ideas involve more government they should be better at being able to explain and defend them. I still have “hope” for this “change”.
Atheling - The mistake made was allowing people who live off the government dole to vote. Only people who support themselves with real jobs should be able to vote.
And I know as many men who are brainless leftists as I do women.
Only if you think the world Lincoln existed in is the same as the world we live in today. If you do, it’s not worth discussing the matter with you further.
I have. I see lots of generalities. Powerlineblog.com, Belmont Club, and a variety of other conservative/center blogs regularly post details of McCain’s policies, and the news reports them fairly faithfully. I’ve seen the media report that Obama has a plan for this or that, but generalities abound with few details. In fact, the only details I’ve managed to dig up on Obama’s policies have been from conservative ‘blogs as well. Most liberal ‘blogs I visit seem satisified to chant the mantra of change, and disparage those who oppose Obama as racist, rather than consider the impact of his planned programs.
I don’t imagine you’d see alot on McCain’s policies here though. . this site is fairly biased against the man.
jsr - I hear you and concur.
Gag me with a spook…I mean, spoon! And who is this Mika person anyway? Where did she come from and why was Joe mysteriously in Florida for 3 weeks. I hate to admit it, but I watch Morning Joe (specfically because I’m sick of FoxNews having a commercial every 30 seconds). Scary, huh?
Comparing the push for Obama to the rise of Hitler strikes me as inappropriate, since Nazis marched in brown shirts and threatened the opposition.
A more pertinent analogy, since as a New Yorker I witnessed it up close, was the elevation of Eliot Spitzer to the governor’s mansion. As with Obama, the media jumped on the bandwagon to beat the drums without the slightest question being raised about Spitzer’s character or how he conducted his office as attorney general. And so the media later became shocked, shocked that he would use the state police to smear his chief Republican rival and have them look the other way when he patronized expensive escorts.
I have a feeling that we haven’t seen the last skeleton to emerge from Obama’s closet.
Hope and Change …
meaning …
When BHO is done with me I HOPE to Hell I still have some CHANGE left in my pocket …
Actually, no, I didn’t. That’s a popular refrain around here, but it’s rarely accurate.
So, you don’t like the two Senators who rep you, and you think that the errors they’ve made (IYHO) are based on the fact that they have ovaries. Thanks for clearing that up and firmly establishing what I already knew.
I’ll have to assume that you agree with the policies of all those politicians who have testes.
Comedy gold.
Highly arguable. The Democratic party was worried about alienating the south (overwhelmingly Democrat) after the passage of the bill. And at least one of those Democrats who resisted the bill is still in Congress to this day. . .
Yes, they were. And as LBJ stated, thereafter, they did lose the South (particularly in terms of presidential elections) to the party to which those who opposed the passage of the CRA fled.
Unfortunately, I have to run since I’m already late to meet people. But I’ll check in later. Although, frankly, I doubt you’ll miss me.
You don’t read very closely, do you?
Not if they are girly men.
What kind of experience? Carter went into real estate when he was about 8 years old, and still owned the buildings when he went to the Naval Academy, then served in the Navy. When his father died he resigned and took over the family business which he ran successfully. Then to the Georgia Senate, Governor of Georgia and President.
So he was successful in business, the military and state poltics before he was President. And Obama is more successful how?
Personally, I can’t wait for the Obamessiah to be elected -
Nothing like:
Doule digit inflation
gas lines
dould digit unemployment
terrorist attacks on our home soil
increased crime
no way to defend yourself
higher taxes
and last but not least:
recession and possible depression.
starlightwoman:
Don’t forget: further encroachment of sharia law in the US.
nbarry - Apparently you’ve forgotten how B. Hussein issued a threat a while back that if Hillary won BY ANY MEANS at that point he and all blacks would consider themselves ‘disenfranchised.’
He may not have come right out and said there would be rioting in the streets, but that’s how I took it and that’s how many others took it too. And if McCain wins, be prepared, because there WILL be rioting.
He calls himself a uniter and all he’s done is divide, divide, divide!
Read the sentence above that one.
Sounds to me like you have been hanging around racists all your life. Get some new friends and you might start to have a little faith in our country.
Nyk’s comments are enough to make me vomit. So we Americans never thought we would see a Mulatto nominated by the Democrats? Or does Nyk think BO is an “African American?” LOL. Too funny. BO is just another crooked Dem politician at best. Lies about his friends and connections, knows nothing but is supposed to be brilliant, single women tingle for him, his father abandoned him, he almost comes from Hope, Arkansas - actually it was a mosque but he has “Hope.” BO is Bill Clinton minus the alcoholic father. Same angry as hell wife, same crook friends, same media cover up of dirty as hell past. No wonder Chris Mathews and Nyk are tingling - BO is the resurrection of Bill Clinton (who died politically this year.) BO will bring change and hope to a bright and shinning America! LOL. History is repeating itself. We will get a massive tax hike, slashed military budget, worship of UN and all crooked organizations, complete disregard of the law, a cabinet of people so incompetent that their total loyalty will be to BO and not the USA, corruption at every level of government. BO sure does stink - just like Reid, Pelosi, Murtha, Kennedy, Gore. All excrement not deleted.
We have lost sight of the big picture, it does not matter who wins the election, we all lose. This is the text book case of having the wrong people in the wrong place at the wrong time.
pathetic.
Boo-frickin-hoo!
I think there is another very real significance to the Democrat nomination this year besides Barack Obama being the nominee. It is this: John Kerry is almost surely the last white, straight male to be nominated by the Democrats. After Obama it will have to be a woman, followed by Hispanic/Asian/gay etc…None of this would be bad except every single one will be filled with the same empty liberal ideas. (Although with any luck the Dems will self-detruct before the USA does.)
Now, now. With all those great ideas Obama will be a wonderful president. Gotta go now. Safeway is having a special on tinfoil and I’m almost out.
Ok all you sheeple. BHO is half black, half white, half muslim, half Christian, all liberal, always finding out his friends weren’t the people he knew. A flash in the pan and a dangerous unknown in a very very unstable world. When history bears all this out, the people like nyk and many many millions more will cry out but only because they feel betrayed, that is if they are able to feel anything when our enemies take it to us.
ahmeehan #92. They can always say; “That isn’t the Barack I always knew”. I’m only half joking, this BHO guy is nothing more than a Soros/MoveOn sock-puppet–very frightening to those of us who hold freedom dear to our hearts.
Joy, I don’t recall Obama making the “disenfranchised” remark, but I believe you on this. He indeed was putting on a good show of being a uniter until Rev. Wright emerged from the woodwork and we were left asking, “Where are Obama’s clothes?”
Well, GWB compares to Carter in prepresidential experience, and Obama compares to Carter in pre- and presidential naivitee (sp?). Frankly, the vacuousness of his answers and mantra make me worry for the future of the country. I remember the Carter nightmare.
Which speaks directly to the lemming-like nature of the average liberal voter. You have to engage one in a conversation to really appreciate the shallowness of their knowledge, both political and historical.
I am crying because Obama might be elected, but not for the same reason these women are. They must enjoy their Obasms.
With this Rezko denial I think BHO has finally caught up with Hillary. “I just don’t know how this could happen without my knowing it.”
If he loses, will blacks riot? I hope we’ve moved beyond that.
NYK says:
I, a Gingrichian Conservative, agree with this post. Black folk have gone through much in America. The smart ones, as a producer at MSNBC is likely to be, feel it weighing on them. I understand the welling up.
And if you think Justice Thomas and Secretary Rice and Thomas Sowell haven’t felt the emotion of it, you are kidding yourself. This is landmark. I’d have preferred someone smarter, but it still is landmark.
Getting the vapors and wetting yourself over a half white/half black Democrat nominee is simply indulging the very, very leftist idea that the US is and always has been a perniciously racist hellhole. The US has had black mayors, governors, and state and federal representatives for well over a hundred years now. Having a half black Dem nominee for president is not the wild, 180 degree break with routine the leftist media would have everyone believe it is.
By the way, since when do you speak for Thomas, Rice and Sowell? You sound like another white liberal speaking for blacks in order to soothe your sense of white guilt. I guess that’s part of being “Gingrichian.”
