Can We Talk? About the awful propaganda out there against Obama?
Edited on Thu Sep-29-11 01:40 PM by leftyladyfrommo
Does anyone else check out the Drudge Report? I do. I want to know what the other side is doing.
Their coverage of the democratic party and this democratic president is just god awful. They print every horrible picture they can find - of Obama, of the Clintons, of Michele Obama.
Today there is coverage of some signs someone put up of Obama in a diaper - Change Me, I Stink.
Am I the only one who finds this terribly offensive? Despicable? I hate it.
No president of this country should have to endure this kind of abuse. It's racist and just plain awful. And there must be a whole lot of people out there who think it's just terribly funny.
I'm an unapologetic Obama supporter. I think he has just an impossible job and is doing the very best he can. And I doubt very much that anyone else would be doing any better. And the political cartoons aren't any better. Makes me sick.

18. I don't remember anyone putting * in diapers...Vitter did
that to himself. We may have mocked *, but it was only showing what he did and said...You know..."most imports come from other countries" "I know how hard it is to put food on your family"...trying to escape through a locked door...fooled twice by the same door. But no watermelons in the yard and monkey faces and all the other despicable jokes.
Denial ain't just a river in Egypt.

5. So now it's politically correct to just be awful?
The concept of a whole nation of Rush Limbaughs is appalling.
We outnumber you, deal with it.

4. I've seen baby-diaper photos of Bush, Bush as chimp, Bush as pinhead
It's immature, certainly, but it's nothing new either. And it didn't start with Obama.
Exactly.

9. If Obama wasn't up to the job, he shouldn't have applied for it
and lied to about all the "hope and change" he would bring.
DUmmies and other leftists convinced him that he was ready.

Apparently Obama isn't the only cry baby.

If it's just fringe nuts, what are you whiny little bitches on DU so worried about, hmmmm?

DUmmie said...
I think he has just an impossible job and is doing the very best he can.
...and then either a DUmmie or a mole beat me to my line.
If Obama wasn't up to the job, he shouldn't have applied for it

Ya know, as funny as I thought that that was, it would have really been hilarious if there were a bunch of other babies in diapers in the background labeled DU crying "Change us, we're full of crap!"

Michelle Malkin did a pretty good takedown of the whiners about Obama being portrayed in a diaper:

And, she only scratched the surface of the photos captured and posted over at Zombietime. I never got all butthurt over juvenile depictions of GW Bush, but, I did worry out the unhinged people that openly made a death threat.
