The conservative quest to prove Obama is a Muslim sits right in the middle of “if I don’t laugh, I’ll cry” territory. Even the Inquisition didn’t expend as much effort finding crypto-Jews; right-wingers scrutinize every little gesture he makes, desperate to prove something that wouldn’t even matter if they were correct. And I do mean every…

    The lower the bar the better Obama looks. Is he a citizen, is he black enough, is he a Muslim, does he love America ?

      the lower the bar?

      • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 12:29 am

        The standard of expectation. In 08 I felt the liberal press was more concerned with if Obama was born in America than if he was qualified to do the job.

        • tracey marie February 22nd, 2015 at 12:30 am

          the media was not concerned the teabaggs were and still are concerned

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 12:36 am

            The press picks the questions. It was what they call a softball.

          • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:44 pm

            they also pick the most ‘important’ groups/news to report on when paid to do so.

        • jasperjava February 22nd, 2015 at 1:30 am

          Well, I think we can all say that Obama turned out to be VERY qualified to do the job. His presidency will certainly go down in history as a successful one, with significant achievements in all policy fields, and repairing quite a bit of the damage caused by his predecessor.

          History will also record that he wasn’t always able to achieve more, mainly due to the fact that he faced a rabid hateful opposition that was more obsessed with his skin color, his religion, his national origin than with helping to govern and find solutions.

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 8:14 am

            sure

            Snappy comeback, that is.

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 8:51 am

            Lazy. didn’t mean to make you feel cheated.
            ok
            I see America as a falling star under Obama. China is pushing us around in Asia and our clout around the world is diminished. I predict that Japan will turn nuclear (or attempt to). China won’t let its nuclear advantage slip and use Japans desperate defense efforts as a excuse to disarm the program and insert a China friendly regime. America will stand firm, speak clear and do nothing.

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 8:57 am

            Look how china is showing off how it has permanently infiltrated our military.

          • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:42 pm

            kinda makes you wonder which GOP offshore bank accounts the payoff monies are in, huh?

          • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:39 pm

            China is big enough to claim the Asian Pacific for the Asian peoples for sure. Japan will eventually form an alliance with China, as will the other Asian nations that wish to have some appearance of autonomous rule. Can’t blame them for that. Better to have some country with citizens than be a barren green glowing wasteland.
            America, also, will eventually be under Chinese authority and/or a barren green glowing wasteland. (most likely after China dumps her US investments – good business sense – even if at a financial loss).
            About the only nation that will be free from Chinese rule by 2050 will be PDRK – which is a very clever ally already. After all, why would China risk a war with PDRK when they already will own the rest of the world?

          it wasn’t the liberal press. it was the RWNJ’s and the only media outlet concerned was faux news, as they still are to this day. even with 2 years left, they are still harping on that and his faith. which even though he’s already stated he’s a christian, my take on it is, its none of your damn business. clearly it hasn’t anything to do with whether or not he’s capable (as we’ve seen since ’08 he is) of running this country. and he’s done a hell-of-a job.

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 8:12 am

            How can you lie to everyone and say that MSNBC didn’t hype the “is he black enough” issue?? CNN couldn’t let the “Is he a citizen” debate go. They aren’t harping “you” are.
            Its none of my damn business?? How can a smoke screen be compared to business?

          • Larry Schmitt February 22nd, 2015 at 8:24 am

            He means it’s none of your damn business what religion the president is, or if he’s any religion at all. You’re as loony as the rest of them.

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 8:52 am

            There you go.

          • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 9:04 am

            I don’t see Ted Cruz bring Pat Robertson out of retirement? This is a liberal press initiated investigation.

          • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:47 pm

            damn! Koch brothers most likely haven’t paid for that newspoliticomercial yet.

          • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:52 pm

            how can a smoke screen be compared to business?

            when it’s paid for with MONEY!

            which would explain why teabaggers (what % of population?) have had such prominent ‘news’ coverage for 6 years running.

            and, of course, the deletion of any accounting of the wasted billions of tax dollars by the Republicans for all their failures to make POTUS Obama a 1 term president.

          • whatthe46 February 22nd, 2015 at 4:18 pm

            wtf are you puffing?

        • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:25 pm

          how can anyone be qualified to be POTUS without a long form Hawaiian altered birth certificate?

    Heeeeeeeeeeeethen !

    • bluejayray February 22nd, 2015 at 12:01 am

      OOOH–he’s got his pinky finger half-cocked, too! Double naughty !

      Off topic–why does he always look like he’s trying to pass a hard dry turd?

      • Fairypuff Phairypuf February 22nd, 2015 at 12:30 am

        He’s banging his head to heavy metal. Judaist priest rocks.

      • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:23 pm

        Republicans are always wanting to show they’re as patriotic as Nugent in public. You can tell by the smiles they wear when they have been successful!

      • fancypants February 22nd, 2015 at 8:51 pm

        pat’s trying to keep it low

        • bluejayray February 23rd, 2015 at 1:43 pm

          These guys don’t even know how damn funny they are! It’s like the recent flap about the upside-down “satanic” stars. A quick google of the GOPTP logo shows that sometimes the stars point up, and sometimes they point down. What does THAT mean, I wonder…

    It’s obvious these imbeciles are not going to give this issue a rest.
    On another note, here’s an awesome story that’s doing the rounds in OZ.

    Nevermind that they also frequently claim that Obama is a puppet of Reverend Wright and his decidedly christian church…

  6. Jake February 22nd, 2015 at 12:57 am

    He’s in good company….

    • fahvel February 22nd, 2015 at 3:14 am

      thanks a lot for the refus but where is the true finger – the one each of the above merit?????

      You call that “good” company? I call it the nut farm.

      always knew this Anti American Viagra addict was an enemy of Ameriku.

      he’s been sending secret coded messages to PDRK’s secret Military agents in his broadcast for years.

      Li – M – Ba – (ugh) is a crypto-Muslim PDRK secret agent out to destroy America; no doubt about it!

      • William February 22nd, 2015 at 3:25 pm

        Well he does hate his country.

    To me, it looked like he was doing the Lindy Hop (it was before my time, but I have seen it in movies.)

  10. fahvel February 22nd, 2015 at 3:13 am

    maybe they all are or have been a product of stalinist sleeper cells and hence, the demise of the usa culminating in a neo nazi/communist, socialist muslim president who has a tone just brown enough to fool the amer people.

    • granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:14 pm

      Ronald Reagan was no crypto-Muslim!
      Muslims DO NOT use US Military cargo planes to smuggle tons of illegal drugs into the USA!
      Plus- he didn’t try to shut down USA shopping malls – just the economy they survived in.

  11. dave-dr-gonzo February 22nd, 2015 at 10:20 am

    I alway”s suspected the “Iron Lady” was secretly a Jihad Jane! [cue facepalm] I don’t know which makes me shake my head in disbelief more: the fact that outright race’an’faith pimps publish “Obummer is a Double Secret Moozlim” nonsense, or that so many rubes choose to believe it.

  12. granpa.usthai February 22nd, 2015 at 3:10 pm

    HOLY F”ING NUGENT PATRIOTISM!!!
    WHITE Fundamental Baptist preachers are really Crypto-Muslims?
    no wonder they want to shut down USA shopping malls!
