If it talks like a chicken and squawks like a chicken, maybe it is a chicken

George Bush spanks appeasers:

Some seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along . . . We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: 'Lord, if only I could have talked to Hitler, all of this might have been avoided.' We have an obligation to call this what it is — the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history.

and Barack Obama gets all huffy. One of the commenters at the latter link provided the picture and another observes that maybe Barack will sue for "definition of character".

Obama is Wright

Obama says we should just move on

Reminiscent of another Democrat pol caught with his pants down, Barack Obama and his chief Marxist dialectician, Michelle, think that us little people should now ignore Barry's long time association with Rev. Jeremiah Wright and just move on:

Democrat Barack Obama and his wife said Thursday the public is tired of hearing about incendiary remarks by their former pastor, as they sought to put the controversy that has rocked his presidential campaign to rest.

"We hear time and time again voters are tired of this," Michelle Obama said in an interview the couple gave to NBC's "Today" show.

"They don't want to hear about this division, they want to know what are we going to do to move beyond these issues," she said. "And what made me feel proud of Barack in this situation is that he is trying to move us as a nation beyond these conversations that divide."

...

"I think that this is about all I'm going to say on this issue, and I think we're going to close this chapter and move into the next phase of this election. With that, I'm hoping that we'll talk about something else."

Here's the problem, Barry. If we believe you, you spent twenty years swapping spit with Jeremiah Wright and never noticed he was a wacko which makes you seem rather less than perceptive, if you know what I mean. On the other hand, if you are lying, then you are a more than few fries short of a Happy Meal too and that makes you damn dangerous. So faced with the question as to whether you are a dullard or a moonbat, us little people are very interested in your ole pal Jeremiah and all your other old chums like William Ayers and Tony Rezko.

C'mon Barry, tell us some more about old times. We love to hear about it!

Hey Barack, payback's a bitch

Rev-enge is sweet for 'betrayed' pastor:

"After 20 years of loving Barack like he was a member of his own family, for Jeremiah to see Barack saying over and over that he didn't know about Jeremiah's views during those years, that he wasn't familiar with what Jeremiah had said, that he may have missed church on this day or that and didn't hear what Jeremiah said, this is seen by Jeremiah as nonsense and betrayal," said the source, who has deep roots in Wright's Chicago community and is familiar with his thinking on the matter.

Golly, who would have thought the Obamessiah would tell a lie?

Today's Hoot: The Poverty Twins and Pumpkin Butt

For some obscure reason I find this PhotoShop of the Obamessiah and Her Thighness incredibly moving. Maybe it was dress down Friday for multimillionaires? The only thing missing is a pint-sized, ragged, and barefoot John Edwards.

The above was stolen from the Great Pumpkin thread on FR - can you guess the owner of this ample, even opulent derriere?

The truth about those pesky Obama rumors!

I've heard them and you've heard them and they are rife on the Web. That's right, it's those pesky rumors about Barack Obama! Well, worry no more - Frank J. has performed a public service by digging into them and providing the truth:

RUMOR: Obama is a Muslim.
STATUS: False
Obama is not currently a Muslim. He's a Christian of some sort in the "hate Whitey" sect.

RUMOR: Obama is an enlightened space alien sent to save humanity.
STATUS: False
All evidence points towards Obama being a below average man who his wife stopped asking to do chores around the house because he was always getting his head stuck in the mop bucket.

RUMOR: Obama tried to bomb the Pentagon.
STATUS: False
That was his friend.

RUMOR: Obama felt we got what we deserved on 9/11.
STATUS: False
That was his other friend.

RUMOR: Obama was once a hired goon for the Aquaman villain Black Manta.
STATUS: False
While Obama has served on a number of committees and attended a fundraiser hosted by Black Manta, Obama has never worked for him. His campaign has on numerous occasions called it out of bounds to draw connections between Obama and the terrorists, hatemongers, and supervillians he happens to hang around with in his spare time.

Friends of Michelle Obama: Hatem El-Hady

When Michelle Obama isn't filling her jewelry box with diamonds or her closet with Jimmy Choo shoes, she takes time out to pal around with terrorist sympathizers:

Another big Barack Obama supporter: Hatem El-Hady, former chairman of the Toledo-based Islamic charity Kindhearts, closed by the US government in 2006 for terrorist fundraising: Terrorist Fundraisers for Obama.

El-Hady has now devoted himself to raising money for Barack Obama; he has a page at the official Obama campaign web site, with three “friends” listed on it: “Rick,” “Fatima from Toledo, Ohio,” and ... Michelle Obama.

Note: when someone is listed as a “friend,” it means they specifically chose it. In other words, Michelle Obama’s name isn’t there because El-Hady put it there — it’s there because she chose to be listed as his friend.

Something tells me that the public part of this friendship won't last. Back to the harem, Michelle.

The Obama Clinton Smackdown we would all like to see

Break out the popcorn and watch "Hillary Clinton" and "Barack Obama" get what they deserve from the "Samoan Bulldozer." "Bill Clinton" unfortunately escapes.


Via FR, where the thread also has this beauty:

“We in Denmark cannot figure out why you are even bothering to hold an election.

On one side, you have a bitch who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, and a lawyer who is married to a bitch who is a lawyer.

On the other side, you have a true war hero married to a woman with a huge chest who owns a beer distributorship.

Is there a contest here?”

Barack Obama: champion of the little people

John Fund at the WSJ:

Barack Obama's San Francisco-Democrat comment last week – about how alienated working-class voters "cling to guns or religion" – is already famous. But the fact that his aides tell reporters he is privately bewildered that anybody took offense is even more remarkable.

Earth to Barack: Not everyone has been subjected to a Marxist upbringing and education, but I'm sure you're working on it.

Democrats have been worrying about defending Mr. Obama's highly liberal voting record in a general election. Now they need to fret that he makes too many mistakes, from ignoring the Rev. Wright time bomb until the videotapes blew up in front of him, to his careless condescension towards salt-of-the-earth Democrats. Mr. Obama has a tendency to make such cultural miscues. Speaking to small-town voters in Iowa last year, he asked, "Anybody gone into Whole Foods lately and see what they charge for arugula?"

On my sole venture into Whole Foods, I wowed the crowd with "Damn right I want plastic." They did look like a bunch of Obama wimps. This guy is so far out of touch with regular folks that he couldn't find them with a road map.

There's more in the article, but I particularly liked:

In 1999, he was the only state senator to oppose a law that prohibited early prison release for sex offenders.

Mr. Obama also backed a total ban on handguns, a move his campaign now says was the result of a rogue aide filling out a questionnaire. But Mr. Obama's own handwritten notes were found on the questionnaire, calling into question the campaign's version of what happened.

Wotta guy - he trusts sex offenders, but doesn't trust average folks. And lies about it when caught out.

Friends of Barack Obama: Jodie Evans

Ben Johnson at FrontPage Magazine:

IF THE MEDIA WERE COMPETENT, THE NAME JODIE EVANS would be as well-known as Jeremiah Wright.

According to Ralph Nader’s Public Citizen, Evans has bundled “at least $50,000” in donations for Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign. “Bundling” is a process in which people turn over a large number of “individual” political contributions as a group, in the hope of exerting greater influence if their candidate is elected.
...
And who is Jodie Evans? A former political appointee of Jerry Brown during his tenure as governor of California and his presidential campaigns, Evans briefly made headlines in 2003 by arranging for women to claim Arnold Schwarzenegger groped them. However, she has kept lower company for the last few years. Her official biography states “her life has been consumed with Codepink: Women for Peace since September of 2002.”

In fact, Evans is a co-founder of the antiwar radical groupCode Pink with Medea Benjamin. As I reported at the time, Evans and Code Pink delivered $600,000 in cash and supplies to “the other side” in Fallujah in December 2004. Rep. Henry Waxman, D-CA, signed the letter to get them to that city, a recent battlefield and stronghold for terrorists killing American soldiers.

Ah, for sheer treason and terrorist loving, there's nothing that can beat the Pinkies. There's more about Code Pink in the article, but Jodie has been a busy girl elsewhere too:

As Jean Pearce has noted on FrontPage, Evans is also institutionally tied to Mike Roselle through as a Director of the Rainforest Action Network. Roselle is the founder of the domestic terrorist organization Earth Liberation Front (ELF), “which along with the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) is ranked the No. 1 domestic terrorism threat by the FBI. The FBI attributes over 600 criminal acts and $43 million in damages to the two groups since 1996.”

Now she has found a new champion: Barack Obama. If he has any sense of decency, Obama should repudiate Evans. At a minimum, he should return her bundled contributions.

I'm not holding my breath since ole Barack says he can't "disown" any of his terrorist loving pals like Jeremiah Wright, but it does raise the question of what these hard core leftists and terrorist sympathizers find so appealing in Barack Obama.

It is significant that Obama, his lapel stripped of any American flag pin, is a magnet for anti-American radicals like Evans, Wright, and domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. Obama’s platform for near-instantaneous withdrawal from Iraq has increased his stock with Code Pink volunteers and, undoubtedly, their Iraqi counterparts. When those who hate this country need a domestic political front, they know who to call on: the Party of Defeat. Following Obama’s instructions, Jodie Evans has placed her “hope” in him. She longs for Americans to buy into his vapid elocutions and meaningless platitudes. And she is willing to put their money where her mouth is.

Can you say "He's one of them"? I knew you could!
