Itz News to Me

So everyone’s talking about the New Yorker cover to which I respond: it was an editorial cartoon, but - without making this a long and tiring post - I think there were some important things missing: like Obama standing on top of his grandmother, like a closet door with the likes of Rezko, Wright, et al trying to get out, and so on. In short, it was the sort of editorial cartoon that a liberal might think of, but it definitely wasn’t as hard-hitting as one which was drawn by an actual conservative would be.

But I digress…I was just reading the latest iteration of Obama’s response to this cover. Now he’s claiming it was discriminatory against Muslims. Are you effing kidding me? Of all the possible things to say about the cover, the best he and his campaign could come up with was parroting the now-discredited CAIR?

Hey, you jug-eared buffoon, let me help you out with this since you’re such a political neophyte and Class A idiot: Either laugh it off or take on the content of the cover head-on. Any other response is just weak-kneed nonsense. You’re just showing yourself to be incapable of taking a stand…even when they lampoon your wife as a gun-toting Angela Davis…You should be embarrassed…Not by the cartoon, but by your response….

In yet another “airbrushing the past” incident, the Obama campaign has magically wiped away the evidence of his past opposition to the surge, lack of faith in our military, and general piss-poor judgment…

Obama cited his great-uncle’s part in the liberation of Auschwitz (now corrected to Buchenwald after getting busted for stretching the truth yet again), in his Memorial Day remarks….The question that the media needs to ask, but won’t of course: was your great-uncle a “typical white person” like your grandmother?

…so says David Lightman of McClatchy Newspapers….

Never mind that Obama is a neo-Marxist…

Never mind that Obama thinks that I’m a bitter, gun-loving, Jesus-nut too stupid to figure out things for myself…

Never mind that Obama wouldn’t even be a U.S. senator were it not for the fact that he was the last man standing after scandal eliminated a rival that would have easily dusted him in an actual election…

Never mind that he doesn’t have a single legislative accomplishment to show for his time in the U.S. Senate….

Never mind that he can’t bring himself to actually denounce the idea that the U.S. brought 9/11 on itself or that the government created AIDS to kill colored people…(He only denounced what he called “controversial statements.” He never specified which statements. His lawerly parsing wasn’t an accident.)

Never mind that he thinks I am gullible enough to believe he belonged to a church for twenty years and had no idea what they stood for…

Never mind that he thinks it’s OK to hold fundraisers at the home of an admitted domestic terrorist…

Never mind that he’s involved in corrupt land deals with enemy agents and political fixers….

Never mind that he thinks people who wear flag pins are false patriots…

Never mind that his wife is a bigot of the first order…

Never mind that his first instinct, when he got in political trouble, was to throw the grandmother who loved and raised him under the bus…

Never mind that he is unable to make the distinction between having a difference of opinion and planting a bomb…

Never mind that he is the favorite candidate of Hamas and the Iranian regime…

I haven’t even gotten to the color of his skin because I could care less. Unlike Obama and Lightman, I judge people on the content of their character. I have seen Obama’s character and found it sadly lacking.

I could go on for pages, but why should I? After all, according to both Obama and David Lightman, the only reason I wouldn’t vote for him is because I’m clinging to my fear and dislike for “people who don’t look like me.”

Too bad neither of them would ever have the courage to say it to my face.
