a good start.

The fact that it took the media, and a whole bunch of people for Berry and Michelle Obama to actually point it out, as if their displays and speeches weren’t enough, is double, no endlessly hilarious. Therein lies the biggest Schadenfreude.

“Let me tell you who me and Barak are.”

“I went to Princeton and Harvard…”

Apparently Princeton and Harvard are too busy doing important stuff to make sure that their graduates (and post-graduates) can speak proper English.

If I had a lawyer, or anyone else I paid good money to, write that first sentence I would fire them on the spot. But this appears to be a strategy to increase their popularity/vote count. Whether it’s strategy or stupidity, I mourn for America.

If I could say that “all of my friends are lawyers”, I don’t think that I could refute an elitist charge with a straight face.

A good lawyer can say anything with a straight face. Remember they have to say “my client is innocent” all the time.

You make a very good point. Someone who can’t handle scraping ice off the windshield can handle global warming/climate change. I don’t think so. Thank you for pointing this out.

“which means, if you live in Chicago, you are scraping ice from your windshield”

Well, you know Obama did grow up in Indonesia and Hawaii (which makes him so qualified to be President…); scraping your windshield would be a big deal to him.

So I do wonder – how would he handle summits in such diverse places as North Korea, Russia, Iran and Syria? Talk about weather changes? While he’s preparing to meet with all those dictators (I mean diplomats) how will he and Michelle ever know what to pack? Scraping their windshield will be the least of their problems, when that nuclear missile from Iran hits their bedroom…

His plan to help the Middle Class?

Cut taxes on corporations.

What do you think corporations do with the taxes they pay? They go on the expense side of the ledger of doing business (cost). These costs are added on to the products that are manufactured and passed along to the wholesaler/distrubitor, which is another corporation.

Same thing applies to the W/D. The cost of business is passed along to the retailer. The retailer is a corporation and the cost of business gets passed on to the consumer.

So now, their taxes are reduced and they realize a savings. Eventually these savings will be passed along to the consumer.

But, in liberal-land, the evil corporations will keep the money and not pass along the savings. But, in conservative-land, this is a win-win. Let me explain.

If the savings are passed along to the consumer, the consumer wins. If the savings are not passed along to the consumer, but to the investors; think 401′s, IRA’s, etc., then they are winners.

ArmyAunt nailed it real good, too. It must suck to be you. You are never, ever the smarted person in the room.

Maybe her “cause” as first lady ought to be improving her speech and diction.

“Who me and Barack are…” “product of a working class upbringin’”

The affectation of poor grammar and working class syntax is a particularly ugly trait of populist politics. But, I’ll give her this– she’s better at it than Hillary.

morganfrost on April 16, 2008 at 11:21 AM

Exactly. There’s panderin’ all around.

(Except that Hilary’s black voice is funnier.)

I have pretty much ignored your ravings but I can’t let this one pass. There is no doubt in my mind that you are a KOS-kid troll and of course you were always going to vote for Obama so who do you think you are fooling with the idea that you would ever think of voting for McCain. Your slurs of the McCain family demonstrate the childish nature of today’s Democratic Party which has normalized totalitarian behavior and anti-Semitism.

One more thing, several weeks ago you rattled off a list of HAMAS talking points and dared someone to call you an anti-Semite. I ignored it at the time but today I will tell you, yes you are an anti-Semite who cares little for this Arab/Muslim group except that they are killing Jews. Like most Palestinnian lovers around the world you barely took notice when the Lebanese Army destroyed the Nahl el-Bared refugee camp killing or wounding hundreds of civilians and displacing 50,000 people. (I am sure after googling the story you will claim that you were deeply wounded by the this act of wanton barbarism when in reality you don’t give a s**t)

Exit question: What’s it all about Alhpie?

He’d never admit it, but “what it’s all about” for Alphie is his racism. Pure and simple.

Cindy McCain grew up in luxury supplied by her daddy’s rather dubious business dealings…then started stealing drugs from charities to fuel her habit.
alphie on April 16, 2008 at 12:31 PM

Don’t tell me, let me guess … You voted for Theresa Heinz’s husband in 2004.

AmIright?

Actually it’s a moratorium on gas taxes. Do try to keep up.

Thanks for your charity, bs.

What is it that Mrs. Obama has done to match that lowlife behavior?

That’s right…it’s not what she’s done…it’s what she is.

Can’t wait ’til November :)

alphie on April 16, 2008 at 12:31 PM

So now it is lowlife to have rich parents?
Uh oh, better tell my daughter that….NOT.
Stealing drugs to fuel a habit is pisspoor behavior.
No doubt about it.

And it IS about what michelle obama is….a phony liar who carries a chip on her shoulder because she is black.
Get over it….some of us “whiteys” are sick and tired of hearing how the “man keeps them down”. I didnt go to Harvard, the hubby and I only have high school diplomas but that didn’t stop us from starting our own business. And being extremely successful at it due to hard work and long hours. No one gave us anything.
It’s called gumption, not getting into a college based on my skin color.
That woman makes me sick!
