I'm increasingly concerned that President Obama only allows hand picked crowds to his appearances.

I'm increasingly concerned that President Obama only allows hand picked crowds to his appearances.
Edited on Tue Apr-07-09 01:54 PM by devilgrrl


I mean really... what's he afraid of? And what is that soldier thinking? Doesn't he know that Obama hates the troops and is an Arab? :sarcasm:



Bet everyone here had to sign a "loyalty oath"



OMG, look at how far back all those angry protesters have to stand!



Look at these angry Czech teenagers getting really to torch Old Glory! Those are lighters that look like cameras.



People desperately tried to claw President Obama's eyes out!

Oh! The Humanity! This a PR disaster for the USA!!!

12. Our office hardcore RWer said yesterday...
"Obama gave a speech today." I said, "He has been giving one just about every day on this trip."

"Well, maybe he shouldn't. He doesn't do it quite as well as he thinks he does."

Excuse me, but the world appears to disagree! LOL!!

:rofl:

Then he said, "Obama apologized to Austria for not being able to speak Austrian." Then he made a giggling motion into his hand and said, "Austrians speak German."

"Ha!" says I. "At least he didn't give any unsuspecting German speakers an unwanted back rub!"

Oh, the straw grasping is getting so entertaining!

I have a friend who was born and raised in Bavaria and goes back to Germany regularly to visit her family. She hates going to Berlin because she can't understand as well, the dialect and accent are that much different.

14. Cult of Personality
Edited on Tue Apr-07-09 02:11 PM by Ezlivin
From "Living Colour":
“And during the few moments that we have left, we want to talk, right down to earth, in a language that everybody here can easily understand.” (Malcolm X)

Look in my eyes, what do you see?
the Cult of Personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you wanna be ohhh…
I'm the Cult of Personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I'm the Cult of Personality
the Cult of Personality
the Cult of Personality

Neon lights, Nobel Prize
When a mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You won't have to follow me
Only you can set me free

I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face of your T.V. ohh…
I'm the Cult of Personality
I exploit you; still you love me
I tell you one and one makes three ohh…
I'm the Cult of Personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi ohh…
I'm the Cult of Personality
the Cult of Personality
the Cult of Personality

Neon lights, Nobel Prize
When a leader speaks, that leader dies
You won't have to follow me
Only you can set you free

(Guitar solo)

You gave me fortune, you gave me fame
You gave me power in your God's name
I'm every person you need to be ohh…
I'm, the, Cult, of, Per, Son, Al, Ity

I am the Cult of (x8)
Personality

“Ask not what your country can do for you…” (John F. Kennedy)
“The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.” (Franklin D. Roosevelt)


If you've not heard it, the song rocks.

As far as "cute", well, I'll leave that up to the women.

Yet I wasn't even "whining" at all. As an Obama supporter and voter, I'm glad he's popular.

20. I always wondered who the speaker was in the opening
bit. Love that song. Fun to play on guitar. Singer Corey Glover, son of Danny Glover. He was in a few movies, too. Full Metal Jacket? One of the popular Vietnam movies. Hated what Jagger did to their second record. Poor choice for producer, I thought.

And the Vietnam movie he appeared in was Oliver Stone's Platoon.

The little flags were also courtesy of the Rendon Group, and the crowds in Europe hired walk-on actors..
Oh, wait, no, that was the previous administration wasn't it?
The previous president at least used REAL propaganda, this one only uses FAKE propaganda.

22. I guess the Freepers don't understand that troops in Iraq might get tanned
and look "brown" compared to the hands and arms of Czech citizens. They don't get that African Americans might be so proud of their new president that they'll make an extra effort to see him when he comes all the way to Baghdad.

Freepers are looking for any excuse to diss him. There just aren't very many excuses that aren't lies.

47. Keeper! Great reminder of the comparison between the boy king & Obama.
These pictures are so wonderful to see -- especially the first & third ones. The third one is amazing, considering the boy king required an elaborate, high-priced plan of security & had to duck out to avoid being seen.

49. In that first picture they had to airbrush some of the soldiers out instead of cutting and pasting
them in...

59. Who Knew.

Bush Re-Elected to Third Term


But after the arguments the Obama justice department made regarding state secrets and arguing that the government is immune to suits challenging the warrantless wire-tapping, in other words going BEYOND Bush, my enthusiasm for photo ops and speeches really is gone. This is not the change I voted for. Oh wait...that's NOT change.

61. I knew it! That soldier in the first photo has GOT to be the Chief
Hugger of the Commander in Chief!

I bet she hates him, but was ordered to hug Obama by her secretly Bush hating commander! After all, we know that the troops all LOVE Bush and HATE Obama.

The poor dear!

I just knew it!!!!

77. A global mandate for the Empire?
This is all very entertaining,
and fits the world of entertainment so well.
We are all so well entertained.

Unless, of course, the bombs are falling on your home.

Humanitarianism is cheered, not Empire and Big Brother,
that bombs stop falling, that torture end, that peace return.

A new beginning is to be cheered,
but it is just that, only a beginning,
not to be mistaken for a new
global mandate for the Empire.

Love this thread.

Imagine that, our President traveling to Turkey

will NEVER WILL fight Islam!!

We can be proud of our President, again!

98. Didn't you get the word that all those soldiers were FORCED to go
and look happy? And, as you can see from the photo, they were also all black. Or so they say at FR and other sites.

100. AND they aren't "front line" soldiers...
They are fresh, so they are still giddy with Obama... or so Freeperville surmises.

They are truly entertaining, but dangerous.

102. Your concern concerns me.
As a concerned person, I have to say that I am very concerned about your concern regarding Obama.

How all those people in Europe were SOOOO upset about Michelle O. hugging the Queen of England that they were inspired to show up in person and voice their displeasure!
