"And away from the dinner table I was introduced to dog meat (tough), snake meat (tougher) and roasted grasshopper (crunchy)...."---Bark Hussein Obama, writing in Dreams From My Father
(No typo.)
***********************************
Yes, it matters. Yes, it matters a great deal.
This little quote speaks volumes. It shows just how foreign Obama truly is. It shows how foreign his upbringing was. Not only that, it also shows how much the Arrogant and Lazy Mainstream Media sucks at its job.
Now, before we get started, yes, I know that former domestic terrorist Bill Ayers may have ghost written Chairman Obama's books. However, that changes nothing. Even if Ayers ghost wrote the above quote, that doesn't mean it wasn't proofread by the future American dictator, nor does it mean that Ayers wasn't given first hand accounts about Bark's life, this incident included.
Back to the matter at hand.
This quote, among thousands admittedly far more important, illustrates just how foreign Obama's upbringing truly was and how truly foreign his thought processes are. For thousands of years, dogs have been domesticated by humans living in western civilization. Dogs (along with cats) are universally accepted as pets, but not as food. Many western cultures have outlawed the eating of dogs and cats for that purpose. It's a social more. Most folks find eating dogmeat almost as repugnant as polygamy and incest. It simply isn't done by normal people with a normal upbringing.
But yet, in the above quote, Obama is treating it as if it was no big deal, like eating duck pate or escargot. That coudn't be further from the truth. It's barbaric. To a lot folks in western civilization, especially those who consider their pets part of the family like I do, this is almost like admitting that one ate Aunt Gladys for dinner. The very fact that this was included in his autobiography, when there was no real reason to do so, shows just how out of touch Bark Obama truly is with American culture.
The worst thing about it is the fact that the Arrogant and Lazy Mainstream Media isn't making more of this. I know they're doing their doggone best to make sure their Fuhrer gets another term to finish off America, but hey, just once, can't they pretend to be Americans who have a vested interest in American culture ? More importantly, as Mark Levin brilliantly asked, why isn't the Arrogant and Lazy Mainstream Media asking when Bark Obama stopped eating the flesh of Man's Best Friend ?
Yes, I know I should be writing about Bark Obama's countless scandals, ranging from arming Mexican drug cartels with Operation Fast and Furious to aiding the Muslim Brotherhood take control of Libya. I get it. In the grand scheme of things, this is nowhere near as important as those crimes against humanity. However, we can't lose sight of things like this. After all, snippets like this from Bark Obama's childhood explain why he's the [fill in your favorite curse word here] he is today. What's more important, it's a barometer of what kind of [fill in your favorite curse word here] he'll be if he gets another four years without having to worry about be reelected.
We are on the edge of complete economic, political, and social disaster. I can't gussy it up. I can't make it sound palatable. The truth is what the truth is.
There are those who worship the dog-god.
What do you call the Obamas with two dogs?
"Ranchers."
Curious. What made you refuse to eat venison and rabbit? I can understand the aversion to rabbit if you also kept them as pets. I’ve eaten venison, rabbit, bear, rattle snake, goat, pickled pig’s feet and gator and of course being from Maryland, a lot of raw oysters. I don’t think I’d eat dog or horse unless I had to in an emergency situation. OTHO, if I were visiting a foreign country where dog was eaten, I can’t say for sure that I wouldn’t try it.
Interestingly in many of those parts of the world where dog is eaten, dogs are also kept as pets. They would never think to fry up their pet Fido but raise dogs as food much like we do cows or pigs. Some folks keep pot bellied pigs as pets but I suspect a number of them also eat pork.
To be honest, there are hundreds of reasons why I loathe Obama and his ilk and want him out of a job come November, but his culinary adventures as a kid are not particularly high on my list.
You go around eating canned tamales you gotta' be an American!
You hit it right on the head, FRiend!
I suppose.
True, but we can’t lose sight of the fact that is another clue of exactly how foreign Obama’s upbringing is. This is not like Sarah Palin’s moose chili.
Maybe I’m small minded, but I prefer having an American president who was raised with Judeo-Christian values. I don’t want some bizarro childhood influencing the Leader of the Free World.
Chicken Poodle Soup, German Shepherd Pie, and for dessert, Baked A Lassie (all from Twitter) - a meal even Michelle would approve of.......
