False images for sale

An e-mail from a reader said that, while Hillary Clinton tells lies, Barack Obama is himself a lie. That is becoming painfully apparent with each new revelation of how drastically his carefully crafted image this election year contrasts with what he has actually been saying and doing for many years.

Sen. Obama's election year image is that of a man who can bring the country together, overcoming differences of party or race, as well as solving our international problems by talking with Iran and other countries with which we are at odds, and performing other miscellaneous miracles as needed.

There is, of course, not a speck of evidence that Obama has ever transcended party differences in the United States Senate. Voting records analyzed by the National Journal show him to be the furthest left of anyone in the Senate. Nor has he sponsored any significant bipartisan legislation -- nor any other significant legislation, for that matter.

I think Obammy gets creepier and creepier. I think he’s a total phony. A real closet fascist. A nasty piece of work. Orwellian. The Stepford candidate.

Hey, don't hold back, tell us what you really think. :)

Those of us old enough to have seen the type again and again over the years can no longer find them exciting. Instead, they are as tedious as they are dangerous.

Well said, Dr. Sowell, well said.

A bunt? Dude, that's baseball, not football.

I'll bet you were not thinking of "Drop Kick".

[garyhope]

LOL. You’re right, I forgot about that.

Then there are those long poles that they use for a certain type of boating in England.

[garyhope]

Why no, I was not thinking of a drop kick.

Wasn't there a country Western song with the title or words “Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the goalposts of life” or something like that.

Yes, Mrs. Obammy is a harridan. A thoroughly unpleasant woman.

[jws3sticks]

I know the word but was just having fun.

[NurdlyPeon]

I'll bet you were not thinking of "Drop Kick".

Gary wasn't thinking about a word that rhymes with "kick". He was talking about Baracks wife, you were thinking of Barack himself.

Paid for by WHO?

Where is the money behind him really coming from?

One of my favorite stories from England is, that comparing American beer to English beer is to say that “American beer is like making love in a punt, its “F***ing close to water”. That one rings true and always brings a smile to these old lips.

You mean the "oar" that use on a "punt"? Man, now I'm really confused.

The George Bernard Shaw quote pretty much sizes up Osama Obama’s attitude toward the “working class”, the class that has made America work throughout its history. His throughly repugnant arrogance is rearing its ugly head and making nasty noises. I don't think its gonna fly with American voters-—be they working stiffs or otherwise.

Ah, yes, the substandard Harvard graduated attorney. Is it public knowledge that any other Harvard law grad was a second rate affirmative action admit?

I think it's called a punt however, in her case I might be wrong.
