Brazil’s Anti-Obama Riots Ignored by Media
Big Journalism ^ | Mar. 20th, 2011 | Susan Swift

A U.S. President beset by angry mobs screaming “Yankee Imperialist Go Home”, exploding Molotov cocktails, rubber bullets, tear gas, riot police.

Hmmm. Could this be why the President “cancelled a public speech he was scheduled to deliver Sunday” in an “historic plaza” in the “heart of Rio de Janeiro?” Well, we may never know from most in the Make-Believe Media. Yahoo News and New York Times are too busy breathlessly praising Obama as the guru of Hoops citing his so-far superb basketball bracket noting that even women’s hoopsters have attracted Obama’s laser-like focus, promoting my new moniker for our Bookie-In-Chief: “Bracket Hoops” Obama.

But cooing over The Guru of Hoops just isn’t enough. The MBM finds itself increasingly acting as traffic cops detouring folks around gory news scenes they don’t want you to see, kinda like 21st Century Clinton bimbo suppression squads.

Sooo,
After his current gig,
Obammy can take up the slack from Jimmy the Greek?
Least he would have a modicum of knowledge in that job as opposed to his current gig.

There was a small anti war demonstration in Memphis yesterday. A group of about ten people were on a street corner saying stop this war and other such drivel. They also had the usual signs protesting US involvement in Lybia. Not one of them had Ø’s name on them. Had this been Bush, Palin, or any other Pub, their name would have been on them. Since Ø sent the missles flying, it looks like it’s just a generic protest. Not one directed at a specific person, namely the Brown Clown. What hypocrites.

At least they were somewhat consistent

There's a church not too far from my house that had many, many "war is not answer" signs and such on the ground that increased in number as the 2008 election became closer.

I didn't realize the war had ended but apparently the "war is not answer" crowd believes it has.

Isn’t a stereotype to claim a black man is ‘The Guru of Hoops’??

“A U.S. President beset by angry mobs screaming “Yankee Imperialist Go Home”, exploding Molotov cocktails, rubber bullets, tear gas, riot police.”

THAT’S the kind of change I’VE been hoping for.

The plane's good to go. Just having some problems with the extension cord issue.
