#1 I think BHO is an empty suit and an ass clown but I don' t think this is a big deal. I don't think the guy is as much sexist as he is an elitist like his wife. On that point I think his wife has already beaten all the sexism (not to mention any testosterone) out of him.

#2 This guy AND his wife are morons. If the press were not keeping them afloat, they'd have long ago been dust under Hillary's heel.

The question is, will the press be able to keep this buffoon covered all the way through the general election?

Barack Hussein Obama = Chance The Gardener (minus the gentle good spirit)

(ref the movie "Being There" starring Peter Sellers)

#3 Didn't Jessie Jackson take his mistress on a White House tour? Then there was Bill and Monica. The Oval Office is a real booty pit.

#4 Barack Hussein Obama = Chance The Gardener (minus the gentle good spirit)

Funny you should mention that, OldSpook. I was recently thinking about the irony that that movie was aimed at Reagan, but hit much closer to the mark with Obama.

#5 Obama also somewhat resembles the character of Jazmine at the end of season 4 of "Angel".

She was a demon who had taken human form and had, with some sort of magic, charmed the entire LA area until a magic spell was broken.

Season 5 had a "Hillary" character - also a demon who had crawled up from the depths of hell and taken human form to run for US Senator (she was killed off in the series ending final episode).

#6 "a demon who had crawled up from the depths of hell and taken human form to run for US Senator (~~she~~ was killed off in the series ending final episode)"

I love a happy ending, mwh. ;-p

#2 OS - please don't insult Chance the Gardener.

#7 Well, I did specifically qualify that as being MINUS the gentle good spirit (innocence).

#8 Barbara

This episode will likely be shown in about two week on TNT (TNT roles through the series showing an episode at 6am and another at 7am time each weekday). They begin season 5 Monday morning and the episode that introduces the Hillary character is the 21st edisode of season 5 (called Power Play) while the episode that kills her off is #22.

#9 Heard the GOP has video of Michelle Obama with Rev Wright, both raging against (and I quote) "whitey", that they are holding off of releasing until after the nomination.
