sooooooooooo will they back-peddle this one?

[ekg]

remember when Hil had to cancel her appearance before congress last month due to her fall and Fox/GOP went all bonkers calling her a liar and saying she had 'Benghazi-flu' and was really just full of shit..

then 3-4 days later she was admitted to the hospital with a blood-clot on her brain..

of course you heard this from Fox/GOP

right, nothing..

so last week Obama was asked if he'd ever shot a gun before.. his reply

"Up at Camp David, we do skeet shooting all the time," Obama said, answering a question about whether he had fired a gun before. He said that his daughters had not participated but that he has "a profound respect for the traditions of hunting that trace back in this country for generations. And I think those who dismiss that out of hand make a big mistake."

so all this week Fox/GOP have been raving "he's a liar".. 'where's the photos'.. hell, they even had a 'secret source' that said "Oh yeah, *eye rolls* he's shot skeet before.. like for 25 secs and then he couldn't get away fast enough *eyeroll*"

StewBeef even did a great skit, with a hilarious reading of Dr, Seuss' ( ) "oh the people who hate you"..

I mean yeah Dana Perino.. even photos of him flossing.. so where is the pics of him shooting? huh? huh? Bet you don't have any Huh? huh? That's right.. You Liar..!


sooooooooooo well.. like with the birth certificate.. that shamed Fox/GOP... like HRC's brain bleed that shamed Fox/GOP.. The white house released this..




of course outside the bubble, we didn't really need this photo.. we didn't need the re-release of the birth cert or HRC's brain bleed.. but inside the bubble is a wholely different animal..

but will this be enough?  will seeing actually elicit believing...


HA!


Nope..


from Fox

The official photo apparently depicts Obama – wearing protective glasses and earmuffs -- firing the shotgun Aug. 4, 2012. It was released Friday on the White House’s Flickr account.

yes... apparently it does.. but what's that you say? not good enough? is he not holding the weapon correctly? is he maybe lacking in 'shooting gear' so obviously this must be fake?

Whether the photo will silence those skeptical about the president’s experience handling a firearm remains unclear.

"The president is holding the shotgun as one would hold and aim a rifle," said John H. Josselyn, legislative vice president for the Associated Gun Clubs of Baltimore Inc. "If the president were actually shooting on a skeet or trap range, he would have been wearing a belt with a shell bag or a shooting vest. This is a poorly staged publicity photo intended to deceive the public by portraying the president as something he is not."

Josselyn is a certified firearms instructor for the National Rifle Association and Maryland State Police.

Chris Chenowith, a member of the Carney Rod and Gun Club, outside Baltimore, pointed out the president has his right hand pretty far up the barrel.

"It gets awfully warm up there," he said. "He might have shot the gun like that, but not more than once."

didja catch the 'red' part... validation that Obama's full of shit because a "certified firearms instructor" and a member of a "gun club  outside Baltimore", but not outside the  fucking bubble,said so..

actual photo and word of the President of the United States vs Joe Schmoo gun-member and Bob Buttface instructor..

hmmm... that's actually a pretty hard decision to make..




Holy Jesus..  is there anything.. anything at all that can penetrate the bubble?

I saw this yesterday and every post that "questioned" the photo either because of stance/form "issues", "gear" and the "gas emission" from the barrel (suggesting photo shop) all share a common theme...President Obama is a liar.

Like John Stewart said, during his Dr. Seuss bit you mentioned, "They will NEVER like you." There will never, ever be a moment where the fringe right wing will express an ounce of respect or positivity for President Obama...Ever.  He needs to stop trying to be their pals, because it ain't ever gonna happen.  I appreciate that he takes his "President of all" seriously...but these people won't even accept him as President, let alone show him a micron of dignity.

At first, I thought perhaps he told his photo guys to release his skeet pics, to dick slap Fox...since he came out of the gates swinging at them in his 2nd term...but there's no real dick slap follow up.  No, "Fuck you. What was that about needing a picture there dick face?" No little "eat my ass" shots. I think he's doing what he's been doing since he took office...he's kowtowing to these knuckle draggers because he's STILL the appease guy.  It's who he is.  He's the mediator.

He wants everyone to come together in some form or fashion. But like Stewart said (again), "They will NEVER like you."  Besides...he's trying to get the lowest denominator to approve of him and from what I remember about life...you don't go out of your way to get approval from horse cunts.  He won his second term. He's not going anywhere. This isn't a business in the typical sense.  He doesn't need to keep kissing the ass of conspiracy nutters and thinly disguised bigots to stay open.  He's the friggin President...be the President...and quit seeking friendship or consent from assholes who hate you.  You will never win them over.

I hope that Stewart's jest makes it into 'bubble' Obama lives himself lives in.. I don't mean the GOP bubble, just the bubble that any and all POTUS's live in where everything surrounding them is filtered differently since they are leaders of a pretty big and busy country.. they get out of sync with 'real life' as would be expected.. That 'book' while being in jest..really needs to seep into his bubble and into his head.

I don't think it can tho..

I know what he's doing.. he's playing the long game. he knows he's historical no matter what he does, all POTUS are but he's magnified by 1000 since he's the 1st of his kind.. The 'white-male-only' mold may have been broken with his election but it's no means irrecoverably destroyed.. he will be judged when any other 'non' white-male runs again for this office..no matter if it's HRC in 2016... or someone else in 2045.. 'white' history will look back on him and judge the new runner..

and then he will be judged as a president by itself.. will he be judged the great sage? the great divider? the one who brought the country together? he wants the 1st and last.. I think he knows he'll never have them currently, but 20 years from now? 200? He wants to be remembered like Lincoln and not forgotten like Taft.

I get that.. but he can do so much more than lower the bar to appease the idiots that will never ever ever ever like him and  it's maddening to watch him repeatedly try..

You're right tho, he's stormed out after his election win and has been kicking them in the balls.. maybe it's setting in slowly that  hey, this is it. there is no other office and no other time for you to do what you want to do. I really, really hope and pray 2014 congressional go our way because I want to see what he can accomplish with the majority again. He did well with it coming into office, but after being there for awhile and learning the ropes..and the getting the triple majority again? he could be great..It could hurt HRC, there could be 'democrat-fatigue' in 2016 if O isn't great.... but if he's the person we all think he is, it might be worth it..

Look at Carney's face when he was asked the question. Obama knows full well what he's doing. He's fucking with FOX.

He's sitting with his advisors and saying "Look, we'll never please them. Let's just throw shit out there and piss them off. Then America will see how fucking nuts they are."
