Outrage over Obama Sock Puppet
Some well-meaning Obama fans created what they regarded as a "cute and cuddly toy," intended to introduce children to the political process —
a socket puppet monkey with ears just like BHO's:
It did not go over well. Sputters black Democrat Charles Henderson:
When have you ever seen another presidential candidate depicted in such a manner?
Gee, Charles. I really can't remember
Whiney fucking spook.

more or less on the same subject...
Obama's Half-Brother Confirms Muslim Background
It looks like Obama's close relatives didn't get the official memo regarding B. Hussein not having been raised as a Muslim. According to his half-brother Malik, BHO won't be mean to Jews, despite his
Muslim background.
What Muslim background? Obama's campaign site
screams in large type:
Obama Has Never Been A Muslim, And Is a Committed Christian
Actually, Obama is not a Christian, but an adherent of Black Liberation Theology, a festering Marxist cult that worships its own hatred of Caucasians. Vehement denials notwithstanding, he was
raised a Muslim, and is now an apostate Muslim, which according to Islamic law marks him for death. I hope that doesn't interfere with the friendly chitchats he has planned with our terrorist enemies.

The company selling the monkey is registered to David and Elizabeth Lawson of West Jordan, according to Utah Department of Commerce records.
According to the Web site, its makers created the "cute and cuddly toy" because they were proud of Obama's achievements and to introduce children to the political process.
Yeah...I might buy that if I were as gullible as, say, a living Tim Russert. The fact that Utah is among the reddest states in the Union (if not
the reddest, which it was last I checked), and that it has one of the lowest percentages of blacks (hence, the low crime rate), might make one (not named Russert) question whether the stated pride in Obama's achievements and noble intent for the puppet isn't, well, a crock of shit. Wait...I'll bet the Lawsons are nogs, too.

None that would think creating an Obama monkey puppet would somehow be considered flattering.

Better that than some tool who practices Sharia law at home with his wife and kids. If he's marked for death by terrorists because of his choice of religion, if anything that's a plus for the guy in my book.
Him being Muslim, which I guess is up to individual interpretation, does not in itself mean that he won't bomb the shit out of Iran or Afghanistan. If you recall, both FDR and Truman were protestant Christians, yet had no problem carpet-bombing German protestant civilians back into the stone age in WWII.
Love the big lips on the puppet, BTW. Nothing offensive about that.
While they were at it, I'm surprised they didn't put a pull string on his back that sang,
Oh Lordy, I been pickin' some cotton....

I'm sure Pikkkle has already FedExed his money order to the Lawsons and is camped out at his mailbox waiting for Mr. McFeeley to deliver the dozen he paid for. Because he, too, is proud of Obama's achievements, of course.

Monkies, in the history of the U.S.
Notice the Black Man, looking like a man and the Irish dude .... McMonkey.
Suck it up Obama supporters.
The lampooning of Bush and caricatures of him were ruthless.
This is the next stage in rendering Obama, everything about him, as "untouchable".
Any critique will be viewed as "racist".

Shouldn't that be O'Monkey? McMonkey sounds Scottish or like something served up at an Asian fast-food restaurant.
Not surprising, though, since the Irish have been historically considered the nogs of Europe.

True, but we're pretty much in uncharted waters here. Kinda hard for any of the previous major party candidates to claim racism, so Obama's got a lotta catchin' up to do.

All true, however, you can't make comparisons of a black man to a monkey and expect people to consider it harmless lampooning, when calling a nog a monkey was a common slur for about a century. Would you consider putting an Italian politican's face on a Guinea Pig as humorous? Sure, it is in an off-color way, but I'm sure you could understand why that would piss plenty of people off.
I find no difference in Obama's camp claiming that criticism against him is "racist" when Bush's cronies declared critism of him to be "unpatriotic" for about five years.

O, Mc and Mac are shared among Irish and Scottish both being primarily of Celtic heritage.

Bullshit. We are at war. Compare pictures of FDR, Truman, and any other President during a time of war to the ones they went out of their way to be portrayed as noble, thoughtful leaders. In some cases through the use of executive orders "cleansing" the news and whatsuch.
When your own media can be used to fuel the enemies propaganda, word for word. What do you call it ? Constructive criticism is one thing, the destructive nature of the attacks on Bush is another thing.
I suppose Hanoi Jane was a true patriot then. Meanwhile, we're going into an election year where it's a dude with known left wing radical terrorist sympathies and connections vs. a guy who when given the opportunity to bail on his countrymen, didn't.

Oh shit, my bad, that wasn't the William Ayers he knew. The guy he knew is a simple man, humble man, present at the baptism of his children. A loving man, a man who would treat white people no different than any other.
My bad.

I don't know the nature of his relationship with Ayers. I know Obama has downplayed it, that's all I know.

Perhaps - just maybe - it's insignificant?
You really think Obama espouses the aims and methods and goals that the Weathermen espoused?

I'm sure that only happened after Ayers and Obama agreed on a plan of attack against America.
You guys are reaching pretty early this year. Is that even necessary? You don't think McCain can win without this kind of bullshit?

1. Not reaching, just don't know. Don't I have the right to question it and the right to scrutinize the responses he gives ?
2. Of course it's necessary and standard operating procedure as well - for both parties.
3. I don't care if McCain wins or loses. Either way we get the same thing. Obama would be the more dangerous pick though because I think things would escalate.

He asked a yes or no question and got a yes or no answer.
If its an issue for you, vote for McCain. Personally, I'd consider it a much lesser issue than say, Clinton's pardening of a few of the Weathermen, or McCain's Keating 5 involvement.

Maybe I like Obama now, I mean, you've really cleared things up for me. None of his associations with anyone in particular matter, he's addressed everything comprehensively and it's all trivial benign stuff.
Can't I change ? Are you depriving me of CHANGE I CAN BELIEVE IN ?

I'm not. If I was, I wouldn't tell you to vote for McCain.

They can matter to you as much as you want them to. I'd simply be more concerned with people that show a history of using their political influence to interfere with a criminal investigation, than somebody that has an association with a past criminal, who is now a prominent teacher in the area that has now been considered a good, valued member of the political community before Obama was involved with him.
As always, you are welcome to your own conclusions.

Yeah, I can tell you've really gotten to the bottom of it right there.
You're a fucking moron.
Why would I need to "get to the bottom of it" on this board? The associations and allegations themselves make him more questionable, politically, than Obama.
