Shameful
Posted by Harvey at 12:34 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (26)

I can't believe that out of the entirety of the Democrat Party, Obama couldn't find a single qualified African-American to choose as a running mate.

I suspect racism.

Why surprised? They couldn't find ANYBODY qualified for the number one spot.

#2 - Posted by: Herr Morgenholz on August 23, 2008 12:52 PM

I enjoy waking up with a laugh. Thanks, Barack!

#3 - Posted by: MarkoMancuso on August 23, 2008 01:51 PM

The qualified African-Americans are all Republicans.

#4 - Posted by: Trish on August 23, 2008 01:56 PM

At least he chose a woman.

I was going to post something clever, but I think 1-5 pretty much sum it up. #5 is especially brilliant and succinct, making me glad I finished lunch before reading it. Keyboards ain't cheap or easy to clean, ya know.

My theory is everyone else turned him down and Biden is working for the Clintons. Hint hint.

The thing about Biden is that he ISN'T "clean and articulate." I've been referring to him for years as "Mr. Stinky Dirty Shorts" but "Baracky and Bullstinkle." over at Ace is better.

#7 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 23, 2008 05:18 PM

No joke, with this dumb choice McPain now has presidency in his pocket.

#8 - Posted by: mykidsmommy on August 23, 2008 05:50 PM

It's Christmas in August. Thank you Senator Santa Clueless. We have been such good children this year.

#9 - Posted by: seanmahair on August 23, 2008 08:35 PM

Oh and don't sully the memory of my favorite cartoon by referring to Osamabama that way. The Squirrel and Moose were nothing if not patriotic Americans. Oshama is nothing like a patriotic American.

Instead we could refer to them as Dudley DoWrong and Snidely Cheatpants. After all they were Canadians and isn't that what the Libs are working toward?

Harry Reid said,
"We now have the ticket that's going to bring the change we've all been hoping for."

Was he asleep at the time?
Sure, the announcement came pretty early but couldn't someone hand the old fool a cup of coffee before asking him for a quote?

I can't believe he said that!
I laughed so hard I woke my dogs!

#11 - Posted by: 5 of 7 on August 23, 2008 09:55 PM

Sorry, #10, but the play on words was just too perfect (and coincidental) to pass up! But I'll think of you every time I use them in private (OK, like once here - done - but just your luck, someone else will pick up on them!)

BTW, I was explaining to my Democrat sister (formerly Goldwater Republican sister - um yeah, go figure that one!) today just who Biden reminds me of. We grew up in a "tough" Catholic parish and Biden reminds me of "those kids" from big families who escaped their mother's bathing schedule, had chronically dirty faces, runny noses and literally stunk of dirty shorts. They were tough, bite and scratch kids and I see some grew up to be Senators.

#12 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 23, 2008 10:25 PM

He couldn't find an african-American to run with him because he's been talking down to black folks. I'ld like to cut his nuts off.

#13 - Posted by: Jesse J. on August 23, 2008 11:31 PM

I suggest that out of all the Nascar drivers he could not find a single one to be his Veep. Thus I suspect race-ism.

#14 - Posted by: Freemon Sandlewould on August 23, 2008 11:44 PM

All those Delaware electoral votes now in yomama's pocket must have McBane shaking in his boots [how many does he own?]

#15 - Posted by: Sigmund Gump on August 24, 2008 12:08 AM

He's an uppity negro!

Obama has caused any racism comments on his own. Here we have a man, who was born of a white mother, and raised and provided for by a white family, yet embraces the black race because of the color of his skin... something really nothing to be proud of considering the only reason for his complexion is because his father was nothing more than a sperm donor. Don't get me wrong - everyone has the right to be proud - for being good parents, good people, etc... The color of your skin does not make you special or give you any particular reason to be proud (other than the fact than you might not have to go to the tanning booth to get a suntan). What is most sickening about the whole thing is that while racism is cried when someone votes against Obama... nobody seems to realize the racism in voting for him simply because he has a darker skin tone. I guess it would be racism if 90% of the white people in America voted for Hillary... but nobody seems to bat an eye at the fact that in every state that voted, 90% of the black population voted for Obama. If he really wants to win over the Hillary supporters, he needs to start replacing his eloquent speeches and famous "YES WE CAN" quote with "And this is how we're going to accomplish this...". We need substance not speeches, and if you want a motivational speaker, check out Tony Robbins.. he'll make you feel like a million bucks and wont send the country to hell in a handbag.

Well, Sarah Palin would be 5 out of 8, and I'm sure she hurts herself sometimes when drivin' her snowmobile, that'd make it 6/8.


Plus, she's pro-drilling. And I'm ALLLL for that, if y'know what I mean. Rowr.

#21 - Posted by: Bod on August 24, 2008 01:30 PM

Funny, Bod. If McCain selects Sarah Palin, watch the bipolar, Prozac-popping, Prius-driving, liberal "women's movement" try to shoot her down.

#22 - Posted by: Jimmy on August 24, 2008 01:57 PM

Sadly yeah, it'll be her 'inauthenticity', I guess.

I have no idea if she's 'articulate' though.

#23 - Posted by: Bod on August 24, 2008 02:21 PM

#24 - Posted by: echo5a on August 25, 2008 12:43 AM

Female and Jewish, maybe, as long as she was an ethnic Jew with no actual religious involvement. Pro-life? Are you kidding? These are DEMOCRATS.
