Obama Mocks Sarah Palin the "Moose Shooter" in Michigan Today

From Farmington Hills, MI:

Obama told the crowd that McCain and Palin spent most of the convention talking about their biographies.

Palin's bio is "compelling," Obama said.

The crowd booed. "No, it's an interesting story." More boos. "No, no, it is. I mean that sincerely. Mother, governor, moose shooter."

The crowd broke out in laughter. "That's cool. That's cool. That's cool stuff," Obama said.

More votes for McCain/Palin.

I think he actually did a good job.

What Obama saw is that his slow (thinking) crowd simply didn’t get that he was trying to soften his attacks on Palin and play nice and at like a grown-up acts. They continued to boo over his clear attempts to act like a normal adult, so he had to throw them some read meat to get them to lighten up.

Sorry, Mr. Obama, that that’s the slow crowd you’ve spent the last year or so sucking up to. Guess you’ll have to pass some talking points around to them to get them to act differently.

He is not very articulate:

“That’s cool. That’s cool. That’s cool stuff,” Obama said.

He says that words mean something, but I don’t think he knows very many words.

Palin is a mother, governor, moose shooter who can take that moose cook it up make a rug out of the skins and hang the rack in the den - while I might add look damn good the whole time.

mockery of yourselves!!!

Maybe Obama should “get him a shoot’n license” (to paraphrase John Kerry), and find out what hunting is all about. ;-)

Lots of hunters in Michigan.

They’re exactly the “Reagan Democrats”, the GOP needs to win.

He's been propped up well beyond his capabilities. The Snob is mocking hunting while campaigning in Michigan?

Is Obama back on the bong? Seriously. He's a flipping dolt.

I am sure their are still democrats out there that hunt. But slowly but surely the democrat leadership’s gun banning ways is pushing them away.

That might go over big with the liberal elitists he was addressing in Farmington Hills but Michigan is a big sports state; lots of hunters and outdoorsmen. You’re treading on dangerous ground B. Hussein. Those northern Michigan people who cling to their God and guns, will kick your skinny butt.

He thinks he's mocking her. And the rabid lefties that show up at his rally think so too. But every time he says this about 1/2 million Michigan hunters are perking up their ears and REALLY saying "Cool".

” “No, no, it is. I mean that sincerely. Mother, governor, moose shooter.”

The crowd broke out in laughter. “That’s cool. That’s cool. That’s cool stuff,” Obama said.”

And this right here is a perfect example of the elitist snobbery that will lose him the election.
He just cannot help himself.
It is a beautiful thing to watch.

The elitism comes when you realize that Obama’s pals grew up shooting at police officers.

He may mock her now as the VP candidate, and very few voters listen; but wait until 2012 when she is the POTUS candidate.

It’s the strangest campaign I can remember. Obama seems to have forgotten who he is running against and is attacking his opponent’s VP. The problem is that the people who LOVE Sarah won’t be changed and the people who hater her wee already voting for Obamer. He is running scared, his polling numbers are falling, and he can’t take government money for his campaign and his fund raising is coming up short.

They both have interesting stories. His is quite sad in some areas; hers seems quite happy in most areas. Her policies are much better than his, though. He must think so, too, since he’s busy talking about her story.

Before we know it, he’ll be asking if he can get him a huntin’ license.

Wait, after the bowling ‘incident’, he’d better skip that photo op.

Very profound criticism. (He's thrashing about for something meaningful to say.)
