He catches like one too, iykwim.

I still think someone needs to put together an ad of Obama "throwing" a pitch, bowling, golfing and riding a bike.

 

Just to show he is physically a retard as well as a mental retard.

5 Mwahaha. MWHahahahaha. MWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA! [cough cough]

6 It's generally not a good thing when the opposition is able to make commercials mocking you for trying to spin your way out of something stupid you said that was caught on video.

This is the gift that keeps on giving.

*munches popcorn*

7 It's good but they should have included much more of what he said....to make it VERY clear what he was referring to.

8 Can we get a link added to Gov. Bobby's piece at Nat'l Review? Link in my name.

9 Many Bothan TOTUSes died to bring us this information.

10 Nice.

Agree that we need an ad with him riding a girl's bike wearing his stupid helmet, wearing mom jeans and throwing out a first pitch like a four year-old (and giving himself a fist pump for his "awesomeness"), his umbrella handling skilz, his gawd-awful golf swing, etc.

11 I started to type "November can't come soon enough", but remembered my sainted Mum's words..."Don't wish your life away, dork."

So I am willing to wait for November to come at its proper time.

14 I made the mistake of reading the Obamabot comments over Barry's ad yesterday.  These people are too stupid to leave the house, let alone vote.  Jeebus.

15 Marxism is so pre-instant replay.  Funny thing is, Al Gore can actually claim to have been taken out of context because he did not actually say "I invented the internet" -- it was "I took the lead in inventing the internet" -- subtle difference in meaning and actual difference in context.  I'm not defending Gore, I'm just pointing out that Obama's patently naked on this one.  (Oh, the ugly, my eyes!)

18 Americans Crossroads didn't make that ad by themselves. They had help from Barry.

19

The "USA! USA!" chant at the end is a nice touch.

20 The Jeffersons were bigots in a good way.  This ad is bigot bigots.

21 He must like these ads talking about him, because he's running for President.

22 I'm afraid of Barky's October Surprise. 

23 But Nate Silver says he has HUGE!!! leads in the swing states.

24

Nobody official will make that ad. But I'm sure someone here could string together the video clips.

That's an insult to kids everywhere with Down Syndrome.

Mostly because they're smarter then him.

26

Turn that teleprompter back on!

Get those fainting supporters back in here!

27 Any publicity is good publicity. Right, right? Are you with me...

28 Barry throwing up brick after brick from the 3pt line, and insisting that the press keep filming until he hits one, is also a fine metaphor for his presidency.

29

That's an insult to kids everywhere with Down Syndrome.

Mostly because they're smarter then him.

 

They also bowl better than I do.

30

This will happen again and again, this man can't speak w/out teleprompter. He needs to be spoon fed every line or he'll step in it.

Mitt doesn't seem intimidated at all by the SCOAMF unlike McCain who was so afraid of offending somebody he became ineffective.

The entire tone of this speech was Obama giving an impersonation of a black preacher, cadence, tone of voice, everything.

He loves to have the Amen responses, I think his staff believes it makes him relatable. Problem is most of the population doesn't respond to this at all.

He got into trouble because he was saying what the crowd wanted to hear and got exicited at thier response. He ran with it and stepped in it.

And yes he does believe this worldview that anyone w/money cheated somehow or isn't "spreading it around"

That's why this will happen again, several times before election.

31 >>Just to show he is physically a retard as well as a mental retard.

32 Who was our opponent, "OFA"? Occupy F'ing America?

33 22 I'm afraid of Barky's October Surprise. Posted by: Jane D'oh at July 25, 2012 12:00 PM (UOM4 An "October Surprise" would only be effective if it was a relatively close race. Also, it would have to be executed correctly and these clowns can't even manage their story.

34 I don't think Barry's brackets are going to help him this fall.

35

Gore is a bit of giant ass.  He helped write and prepare some legislation that helped get the government OUT OF THE WAY of letting the Internet grow.

 

Really smart people actually created the hardware and software and had the ideas that have made the Internet a reality.  They made the Internet.

 

Politicians, any politician.  Not so much.

 

Typical of politicians of any stripe.  Look what I did for you.  It's essentially the same as Barry saying how you didn't do that on your own.

 

Barry was pitching it to his class warfare audience. And surprise, stupid.  We can all hear the same thing.  That guy.

 

I mean, how stupid is this, really?  And yes, there are a lot of people that vote that can't really find their way around.

36 I'm thinking that Romney will do well in the debates. He held his own against Gingrich who is a really good debater. I think he will kick little barrys ass.

37 From now on, Joe Biden  will  be  formatting  the  teleprompters  to avoid this sort of thing.

38

FYI, the view from inside the OODA loop is spectacular.

39

I noted in the previous thread that it was only a matter of time before Obama says something about Chik-Fil-A, and then I read that a Chicago alderman wants to ban Chik-Fil-A in his district  (for a city that is suffering, Chicago sure likes to ban successful companies from its city limits). 

 

I hope someone from the media asks Obama about this.  We will then get to see if Obama truly believes in businesses.  My guess is he only believes in businesses that support his ideology.

40 People are afraid. When people are afraid they do stupid things. It won't be a cake walk. Posted by: Oldsailors Poet, Team Dagny at July 25, 2012 11:51 AM (9TTOe) ------------ I agree. Firmly grounded, properly educated people react with strength of character and firmness of resolve. Indoctrinated urban hipster sheep react with petulance and vindictive, infantile scorn. ....and they happen to be some of the dumbest motherfuckers the good Lord has yet created.

41

Some competitors/teams are awesome when they're ahead.  But we all know the scenario (it's been a staple of Rocky-type movies for years): the "underdog keeps it close and the favorite gets more and more human and starts making stupid mistakes. 

I think there's enough pressure on Obama that his true colors will start showing through to the point where even the idiots can see them.  Should be pretty good - he hasn;t really had to contest a real election in years.

And I approve the montage of mom-jeans/throws like a girl/riding with that stupid helmet/not taking up Brown on his 2 on 2 game offer.  If not by a PAC, someone with decent skills should do it and post it on this new-fangled UTube thingy just to get it out there.

Obama has always been the President of black America - and ONLY black America.  His whole life story is all about trying to be "authentically black" because he had no idea what the fuck he really was or who he is.

He still has no clue.

But it was George Bush who had the psychodrama goin' on.

Not only have his policies failes, but he's a real dumba$$ too.

58 "If you are discriminating against a segment of the community, I don't want you in the 1st Ward," Moreno told the Tribune on Tuesday.

Moreno stated his position in strong terms, referring to Cathy's "bigoted, homophobic comments" in a proposed opinion page piece that an aide also sent to Tribune reporters. "Because of this man's ignorance, I will now be denying Chick-fil-A's permit to open a restaurant in the 1st Ward."

The alderman has the ideological support of Mayor Rahm Emanuel.

"Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values," the mayor said in a statement when asked about Moreno's decision. "They disrespect our fellow neighbors and residents. This would be a bad investment, since it would be empty."

Conservatives should love Apple.  Apple focuses solely on making money (well making products that make it money).  Apple doesn't worry about makign corporate donations.  Apple doesn't fight causes.  Apple doesn't lobby and use the government to get what it wants.  Apple doesn't worry about where its products are manufactured.  Really all this was Steve Jobs, so we'll see what happens now.  But Steve Jobs was as close to an executive along the lines of Danny Taggart or Hank Reardon as any public company CEO.  And you can see the success he had.

A further point about Apple.  How many companies would have expressed outrage that Rush Limbaugh is a big believer of their product, or allow Rush to give away their product as give-aways.  Apple doesn't care.  It just wants the money.  If conservatives buy their product, Apple just doesn't care.  It is the honey badger of companies. 

97 The only empty Chik-fil-A you'll ever see is on Sunday.  They could put one of the things on the moon and make a profit.

104 Jane D'oh, remember when Obama forced private shareholders in Chrysler (I think) to take pennies on the dollar for their shares. I am almost certain that when the shareholders became outraged Obama said something along the lines of "I don't stand with those people". Being he is out there "attempting" to tout GM/Chrysler as a plan that worked, it would be great to see an ad with a revisit on how it worked and what he said.

105 Obama learned this argument against the you didn't build it statement from watching COPS.

According to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, President Obama has widened his lead over rival Mitt Romney. HeÂ’s now six points ahead (49 to 43 percent nationwide), up from a three-point lead (47 to 44 percent) last month.

In the key swing states, Mr. ObamaÂ’s doing even better. NBC/WSJ has him leading by eight points in the top 12 battlegrounds.

This is good news for the president. So why does it feel as if heÂ’s in a tougher spot than heÂ’s been in for much of the campaign?

No, the really scary poll number for Obama is this one: Only 27 percent of voters think the economy will improve over the next year. ThatÂ’s down eight points from last month. And that level of economic pessimism is very dangerous for an incumbent.

Mitt Romney would restore 'Anglo-Saxon' relations between Britain and America
By Jon Swaine, Washington
The Telegraph (UK) July 24

Hm. Winston Churchill was dedicated to the British Empire at its zenith and saw it through WWII as the last Western European power left standing gratis USA.

But Churchill's greatness is tainted by his persecution of those opposing British RULE in India, starving them to death in prison...

I used to love the start of the new year at Boston University.  Every year I'd drive down Commonwealth Ave and for the first week or so of the new semester I would marvel at the new crop of freshman muffin tops.

There, under a bright blue sky, in the warmth of New England September sun, seeing all the fake-n-bake tans that Daddy paid for, I learned the secret of modern young womanhood....

If you fake tan the fat before it rolls over the top of the Burberry skirt, it enhances its power as a mating call.

President Obama's never really faced serious competition before. Sure, he lost his first bid for national office in 2000, getting beaten by Bobby Rush for a US Congressional seat, but that was before young Obama caught the attention of Democratic Party kingmakers and big-money fundraisers, who saw in him a rising star. Since then, things have gone miraculously his way--if by 'miraculously' one means by way of the usual dirty tricks that serve the careers of most Chicago Machine politicians: the routine disqualification of his state office opponents of both parties, the magical unsealing of Jack and Jeri Ryan's sealed divorce records just prior to the Illinois US senatorial contest, and so on.

 

Now he's up against Romney, an increasingly strong candidate, and a no longer ineffectual RNC, well-funded, well-led, and fired up. The possibility he might actually lose this election is just now hitting home. For a narcissist like Obama, this is unthinkable. It's getting under his skin, stealing his sleep, making him increasingly angry, irritable, and petulant.

 

I say keep piling on. If this keeps up, his famous composure will crack and he'll have a meltdown on national television, ideally during the debates. Can't wait.

193 So... when is Romney going to run on what he would DO rather than how much his opponent sucks? When does he run on how good he is and how he'll do right rather than how bad his opponent is?

194

So... when is Romney going to run on what he would DO rather than how much his opponent sucks?

 

Gee, Chris, I dunno. Romney's opponent sucks a lot and I (for one) don't get tired of Republican candidates talking at length about the sheer magnitude of Obama's suckitude.

195

@188 "Obama claims he was taken out
of context, and the ad doesn't show the context, it just shows the same
thing everybody knows he said. I don't see how this can be very
effective."

 

I agree that it has that flaw, but (sadly) ads can be effective even if they have flaws in logic. What they COULD have done is play the three parts of the tape where he said essentially the same thing three times:

1) "...if youÂ’ve been successful, you didnÂ’t get there on your own...
2) "If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help...."
3) "If youÂ’ve got a business -- you didnÂ’t build that. Somebody else made that happen."

Actually, you could count that last one twice, since the second sentence repeats the message.

But this is politics, not a courtroom, so repeating the same phrase might actually be more effective.

196

@193

 

Well put. If you combine that with his deciding that he knows better than anyone on his team about anything, this may just be the first in a series of mistakes, as Obama's campaign unravels.

 

But will it EVER start to show up in the polls? Is anybody out there? Do you care that the POTUS is a lying commie scumbag? Are we stuck on "You can't say anything negative because he's black (even though he biracial)"? Are we THAT stupid?

Posted by: Jaydee at July 25, 2012 12:00 PM (5YMB7) Never forget- Nate Silver was a member of the Royal Order of Obama Knob-gobblers, ie. Journolist. His numbers should always be read with that in mind. Expect to see Obama always ahead in his stuff until the last few days when it's plain BO can't win. Then we'll see a straight up accounting. Silver doesn't want to lose his gig as the MSM's stat boy.

I'm hoping Ace and others are right about that whole 'preference cascade' thing. If enough people start to realize it's okay not to like the guy, that they're not evil racists for thinking he's an incompetent Left-wing ideologue and all-around lousy human being, then we've got a chance.

 

Expect to hear a great many more bigotry smears aimed at Republicans over the next few months. ABC's Brian Ross is representative of most of the MSM: they're absolutely desperate to associate Republicans in general and Tea Party conservatives in particular with racism. They know what a preference cascade is, too, and want to do all they can to prevent it. If they manage to equate opposition to President Obama as inherently racist and racially motivated, they win.

199 "Gee, Chris, I dunno. Romney's opponent sucks a lot and I (for one) don't get tired of Republican candidates talking at length about the sheer magnitude of Obama's suckitude."
I don't mind it either, but we're voting FOR a president, not AGAINST one. Sooner or later Romney has to lay down the case for why he's better more than why his opponent is so awful.
If Jennifer Rubin is right that this "you didn't built it" is the tipping point, the rabbit attack/Dukakis in a tank moment, the cascade is already in motion. If its just a passing thing like the "Why so Socialist" posters or the Joe the Plumber moment... well we're screwed. Americans either cannot be reached or don't care that he's a socialist liar.

200

"I don't mind it either, but we're voting FOR a president, not AGAINST one. Sooner or later Romney has to lay down the case for why he's better more than why his opponent is so awful."

 

I guess right about now is when we find out if Romney's cautious, meticulous, no-blunder strategy is just a strategy or core to who and what he is.  If it is, then we'll probably lose. Waiting for the other guy to screw up and self-implode may've worked in the primaries but it won't work in the general election, guaranteed.

201

OK, I see we are getting today's concern-troll attack, which is "When is Romney going to tell us what he is FOR???"

At first Bill Gates didn't care about politics either, but that asshole Orin Hatch laid it out for him that he had become a player in the crony capitalism game.

 

Hatch has to go.

203

"If you want to get involved in business," Sen. Orrin Hatch warned technology companies at a conference in 2000, "you should get involved in politics."

Hatch was referring to the shortcomings of then-software king Microsoft, which he had spent most of the previous decade harassing from his perch as Judiciary Committee chairman. The message was clear: If you become successful, you must hire lobbyists, you must start a political action committee, and you must donate to politicians. Otherwise Washington will make your life very difficult.

 

 -Tim Carney Article in the June 24th Washington Examiner

204 GREAT ad! That will leave a mark. As for the concern-troll, yes I would like to hear some concrete plans for Romney's conservatism once in office - but in lieu of that, I KNOW what O'Barky plans - and I ain't buying that for a dollar.

205 Taylor is NOT a concern troll.

206

"...I don't mind it either, but we're voting FOR a president, not AGAINST one. Sooner or later Romney has to lay down the case for why he's better more than why his opponent is so awful."

 

"Let not your heart be troubled", as one commentator likes to say.

 

First of all, you're wrong. As a practical matter, the choice is BETWEEN two major candidates.

 

More importantly, when one candidate is blatantly anti-American, while the other is not, that ought to be enough to push you the right way. Unfortunately, this is not enough for many. How many hard-core consevatives will simply sit out, having a hissy fit about some isolated pet issue, or eliminating Romney from consideration based on his religion?

 

So you're right, too. Some will need something to get off their butts and vote FOR. But on THAT subject, timing is essential. Many undecideds are just not paying a lot of attention right now. The optimal time to start sounding more like Ronald Reagan will come soon enough, and that will be the big make-or-break.

 

Everybody's going to be glued to the Olympics pretty soon, and won't remember much of what went on before it. This would be a good time for Romney to start really getting out there, because of his past very-successful association with that event.

 

A message should follow sometime after that. Maybe around his actual nomination would be a good time. Certainly before the debates. But it would be wasted money falling on deaf ears right now.

 

Give the guy a break! How far did Obamanation get on the vacuous, meaningless phrase, "Hope and Change"? Selling "Hope" in the freest, most prosperous country the World has ever seen? You gotta hand it to him - it was like selling ice to eskimos...

207 great!!

208 "OK, I see we are getting today's concern-troll attack, which is 'When is Romney going to tell us what he is FOR???"
Rockmom, you're right I am concerned. I'm concerned that he can't get elected by only responding to attacks and tearing down the president. People don't elect a man because he sucks less than the other guy, they elect someone they want in that position.
I don't know when the ideal time is to start the presentation of how he'd be better - and given Romney's campaign they probably have it down to an exact second based on 12 years of computer modeling and demographic studies - all I know is they have to some time.
I like kicking Obama in the pills as much as the next guy. Its just not enough.
Optimizer has a good point about the Olympics (although I think he overestimates the interest level these days) so maybe the "convention is when it starts" is the right read. Certainly Romney faced a tough road: tear down a popular president that people are afraid to criticize because they don't want to be accused of racism.

209 Obama is a stuttering clusterf*ck of a miserable failure.

210 FYI, Chris: Jimmy Carter really was attacked by a rabbit. He managed to ward it off with a paddle before it lept from the river onto his boat and assault him in horrible, rabbity ways rabbits are known for. <insert Monty Python Holy Grail "He's got teeth!" reference here>

211 In a way I kind of feel bad for President Obama. He really does think he's good for business and really thinks he wants to help them. He thinks that his policies are good for the economy and can't figure out why people are so opposed to it and attack him for it.
Kind of like a pedophile who says he just loves kids and can't figure out why people get so upset at his 'love.'
So I guess I don't feel bad for him after all.
