New Obama Smear

I never thought it would happen to me, but I just received a new Obama smear via e-mail. Makes you wonder what this country is coming to. Full text after the jump.

Subject: WHO IS BARACK OBAMA?

There are many things people do not know about BARACK OBAMA. It is every American's duty to read this message and pass it along to all of their friends and loved ones.

Barack Obama wears a FLAG PIN at all times. Even in the shower.

Barack Obama says the PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE every time he sees an American flag. He also ends every sentence by saying, "WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL." Click here for video of Obama quietly mouthing the PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE in his sleep.

A tape exists of Michelle Obama saying the PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE at a conference on PATRIOTISM.

Every weekend, Barack and Michelle take their daughters HUNTING.

Barack Obama is a PATRIOTIC AMERICAN. He has one HAND over his HEART at all times. He occasionally switches when one arm gets tired, which is almost never because he is STRONG.

Barack Obama has the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE tattooed on his stomach. It's upside-down, so he can read it while doing sit-ups.

There's only one artist on Barack Obama's iPod: FRANCIS SCOTT KEY.

Barack Obama is a DEVOUT CHRISTIAN. His favorite book is the BIBLE, which he has memorized. His name means HE WHO LOVES JESUS in the ancient language of Aramaic. He is PROUD that Jesus was an American.

Barack Obama goes to church every morning. He goes to church every afternoon. He goes to church every evening. He is IN CHURCH RIGHT NOW.

Barack Obama's new airplane includes a conference room, a kitchen, and a MEGACHURCH.

Barack Obama's skin is the color of AMERICAN SOIL.

Barack Obama buys AMERICAN STUFF. He owns a FORD, a BASEBALL TEAM, and a COMPUTER HE BUILT HIMSELF FROM AMERICAN PARTS. He travels mostly by FORKLIFT.

Barack Obama says that Americans cling to GUNS and RELIGION because they are AWESOME.

Hat tip to Slate's Christopher Beam ;D

Barack Obama's skin is the color of AMERICAN SOIL.
I'm not sure if that sounds too good, because people step on soil. he could have come up with something better or just left his skin out of it.

Re: New Obama Smear (2.00 / 7)

What a terribly low opinion you have of American soil! Why do you hate American soil? You must be some kind of islamofascerist.

Re: New Obama Smear (2.00 / 7)

Lakrosse (aka DiamondJay) never misses the opportunity to CONCERN TROLL, unlike Barack Obama, who never misses the opportunity to SALUTE THE FLAG.

Do you have issues with American soil? Also, isn't your username based on a French word? Why do you hate freedom?

You forgot to mention (2.00 / 2)

that Obama eats only STEAKS grown on AMERICAN RANCHES and washes down every meal with BUDWEISER.


by UrbanRedneck on Wed Jun 18, 2008 at 03:31:15 PM EST

Budweiser is soon to be not-American (2.00 / 2)

So it'll have to be Miller.  Or maybe Coors, but they're quasi-Canadian.

Don't look now, but none of the beers you mentioned are owned by Americans anymore (Miller is owned by South Africans).

Re: The hell? (none / 0)

My vote is for Yuengling.  But Chicago has always had a bit of a crush on Milwaukee, so I think he should go the PBR route.

You have to think about demographics (2.00 / 3)

He's already got the "shit-faced penniless fratboy" and "pretentious scene kid" demographic totally sewn up, drinking PBR would add nothing to the ticket.  Yuengling's got a fucking EAGLE.

I saw this earlier today and emailed it to some republican friends. It's a great riff on the Obama smears and Chuck Norris jokes.

You also need to plug in some favorite American TV shows as well - both classic and contemporary, like I love Lucy and Lost

inquiring minds want to know - does Obama have {cough, cough} body piercings?  ;)


by colebiancardi on Wed Jun 18, 2008 at 04:06:04 PM EST

Re: New Obama Smear (2.00 / 4)

YES, his American flag nipple piercings look great with his Declaration of Independence tat.
