    In January of 2009, huge numbers of eager liberals made the trip down to Washington D.C. to celebrate the inauguration of Hope and Change. The mood of the day was optimism. The big change had finally come. Nearly two years later, they returned to Washington D.C. on buses for Jon Stewart’s clownfest, but the mood had changed. Contempt had replaced optimism. The left wing of the Democratic party had reverted to its Bush era sneers and jibes. The mocking costumes and signs had been staples of Anti-War rallies and Anti-Bush rallies from 2001 to 2008. But this was not a...

    Here is video of a juvenile President Obama once again giving the middle finger salute to his political opposition. This time, he saluted House Minority Leader John Boehner. You see him first scratch his temple with his index finger when he mentions the other party, but seconds later, when he mentions Boehner, he scratches again using his middle finger. In case you are inclined to say, “Surely not” – just a coincidence – take a look below at three other occasions when Obama has given his political opposition the middle finger....

    During Barack Obama’s campaign stop last week in Allentown, Pennsylvania, he scratched his head with his middle finger as he named the mayor of Bethlehem, John Callahan, a Hillary Clinton supporter. Right before the 2008 election, presidential candidate Barack Obama made a remark about his opponent, John McCain. As he made the remark, Obama scratched his face with his middle finger. Rush Limbaugh and others were quick to ask if Obama was giving the finger to Senator McCain. Dr. Anna Salter’s research on sexual predators gives us some clues as to why we are so often unable to spot a...

The video also shows him making the gesture when mentioning Hillary Clinton on April 17, 2008, and when mentioning John McCain on November 3, 2008. The individual videos are also provided . . . .

    Came across this crochet pattern today while looking for others. Thought some of you 'crafters' here might get a kick out of it. ;) Comments: Barack Obama Finger Puppet Reviewed by Jessica Victor on 2008-12-20 With this little guy I sorta have to squint and tilt my head and he ends up looking somewhere between Will Smith and/or Denzel Washington as well. Overall a cute concept but otherwise requires the McCain finger puppet to make this one seem relevant. Overall functionally it's cute and makes a good finger puppet.

    The Obama campaign denies that Obama gave Hillary the infamous one-finger salute: A spokesman for the presidential campaign of Illinois Sen. Barack Obama has criticized The Ticket for making a "false and childish accusation" in an item Thursday that the candidate's one-fingered gesture during a speech that day might have been the finger aimed at his Democratic Party opponent instead of an innocent finger aimed at brushing his cheek or scratching a scratch. As displayed in a video clip, Obama was criticizing Washington for its gotcha politics in general and New York Sen. Hillary Clinton specifically as being "in her...

    On August 15th, I posted the following in response to Indra Nooyi’s appointment as CEO of Pepsico: This is a copy of the letter I just sent to Pepsico. Dear BOD: I have been a consumer of Pepsi products as long as I can remember. Indeed, my grandfather bought Pepsi stock in the post-depression era which was subsequently willed to my parents. However, that came to an end today when you announced the appointment of Indra K. Nooyi as your new CEO. I have read her speech where she referred to the US as the "middle finger" of a world-wide...

    Pepsico Inc. Chief Financial Officer Indra K. Nooyi will replace Steven Reinemund as chief executive, the Pepsi-Cola and snacks company said yesterday, making her the No. 2-ranked female CEO in the Fortune 500.     With her Oct. 1 appointment, Mrs. Nooyi takes her place in an elite group of 11 female CEOs running Fortune 500 companies. Patricia Woertz at agricultural processor Archer Daniels Midland Co. ranks first. ADM is ranked 56th in the Fortune 500, while Pepsico, the world's second-largest soft-drink company after Coca-Cola Co., is ranked 61st.     "I'm very excited and at the same time very humbled," she told analysts...

    WHEN THE HARVARD-YALE FOOTBALL GAME was played in Cambridge last fall, Yale students pulled off one of the great college pranks of all time. During the game a fake Harvard pep squad wearing red and white face paint distributed 1,800 pieces of construction paper on seats covering the Harvard side of the stadium. When turned over in unison by the occupants of the seats, they were purportedly to spell out "Go Harvard." Instead, they spelled out "We suck." (See the Harvard Sucks website for the back story and multimedia presentations.)The Columbia Business School MBA recognition ceremony took place at Madison...

    THE RANT.US ^ | MAY 23, 2005 | WARNER TODD HUSTON
    Apparently PepsiCo's President and CFO, Indra Nooyi, thinks the USA is giving "the finger" to all the world. That's right, she was heard to claim that the USA is flipping the bird to every other nation on earth in a commencement address she gave to the graduates of Columbia Business School on May 15th. All commencement speakers have the singular problem of finding a way to give their address a "hook", a way to grab the audience. Indra Nooyi chose as her "hook" an analogy of the five fingers of the hand as representing the five major continents. With apologies...

    We have been inundated with messages responding to our posts on the graduation remarks by PepsiCo president Indra Nooyi at the Columbia Business School MBA recognition ceremony of this past Sunday. Many readers (approximately a third) have written to comment that, unlike our rapporteur -- graduating Columbia MBA Wes Martin -- they did not find Ms. Nooyi's remarks objectionable. I am grateful that PepsiCo posted the remarks today (together with the accompanying statement) and that we can all determine the issue for ourselves based on "the ocular proof." The Harvard-Yale game this year was played in Cambridge. Consistent with some...

    A message from PepsiCo’s President & CFO, Indra Nooyi I recently had the privilege of speaking to the 2005 graduating class of Columbia University’s Business School in New York City. Recognizing that these talented new leaders will influence both America and the world, I tried to provide some advice as they embark on their careers. I chose to speak about the powerful role that America, and we as Americans, hold in the world today. I hoped to encourage these graduates to be sure they make a positive and personal difference as representatives of our great country. In my comments, I...

    Ah, the Middle Finger. The Digitus infamis. The Digitus impudicus. It is often suggested that the infamous one-finger salute has been provocative ever since the days of ancient Greece. Shaggy Denver Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer was almost certainly oblivious to this long history before having the good sense to flip the bird to a grating fan last Sunday. Our problem? Jake, the execution was simply atrocious. Isn't anything worth doing, worth doing right? A "Field Guide to the North American Bird" is co-authored by brother-and-sister team Adam and Lauren Blank. It's a wonderfully funny and detailed illustrated compilation of almost...
