I bet Scarianna is wondering why she’s been having that pain in her left temple all week. Its cause of this:
Camille, Monday Open Thread
Arianna Huffington is a fucking piece of shit! Hell hath no fury like this worn-out whore scorned, shunned and shut down.
This bitter, worthless, shameless, lying, cheating, deceitful, immoral, unethical, unloved, empty, ugly, soul will do just about anything to drag everyone down with her into the miserable hell hole she, Newt and Darrell Issa permanently dwell in.
What a pathetic tool. She must no longer be allowed to sully our democracy with her tired whoring and spite.
This idiot would be the first in line to politicize and publicly attack President Obama if the operation had gone wrong.
But here she goes not letting up in her now public plan to handicap President Obama by talking down his accomplishments and trying to begrudge him his hard-worn advantages!
When Karma – saving the best for last – finally settles on Arianna Huffington, it will be brutal, merciless and deservedly so. And you can bet that she will permanently self-destruct in no time and Deepak Chopra couldn’t save her if his own life depended on it.
What a horrible, horrible, soulless shell of a woman. It must be hell to the nth degree being her.
You Mad? Comments of the Week
Oh the rethugs have a sad……somebody put May 1st on the calendar – the anniversary of bin Laden’s suprise demise.

For real though, PBO is daring Romney to not concede the point. PBO is on tape during a debate that he would do what he did wrt to Bin Laden, ie go after him if necessary in Pakistan. It struck me as uber bold and a bit foolhardy at the time when PBO said it, but he was right.
He took a risk and was proven right….PBO should be able to tout that. Especially since McCain said it was dangerous and Romney said that it wasn’t worth it to get Bin Laden, in keeping with W’s stance that OBL was irrelevant to the war on terror. Romney has to lie or flip-flop to even get ahead.
When PBO said he and Romney weren’t friends in an interview last week, to me, that was his way of saying “I’mma beat romney like he stole something.” He is not playing with Romney at all and will use him to expose every Repub cravenness and hypocrisy.

It’s funny because this is exactly the reaction the Obama campaign wanted from the republicans and some in the media. It was so predictable and Romney and the r’s are trapped in the corner on defense and have no legitimate argument so they whine. By the media constantly mentioning the ad it only increases it’s publicity. The stupid mainstream media and republicans are only making things worse.
I have to say that the Democrats are really starting to get better at campaigning and boxing in republicans.

Afghanistan has been invaded, used, abused & pissed on since 1979. While the Soviets were fighting a war there, our CIA under the great ST Ronnie was busy making their own mischief & we left the Afghanis hanging as we used them in our “cold war” with USSR. Daddy Bush left them one more time to whatever devices they had…Taliban rule. Baby Bush came in & did his own useless tap dance.
PBO is taking our fighting troops home but he is not leaving the Afghanis without some advice & support from both our military advisers and those of NATO. Afghanistan is being treated by our Prez as both an ally & a real “grown up” nation capable of determining it’s own government & destiny. It is not the place of the USA to tell them what is best for them or how to do it.
PBO is a brilliant President & the best this country has had in my life time. I cried listening to what he said. May all the deities keep & protect him. This world needs him so very much.

I’ve been reading and rofl about this new David Marnis book and have a few thoughts:
1) Genevieve Cook is trifling for selling her diary. PBO has a wife and two underage daughters. Malia and Sasha don’t need to know about their daddy’s or mama’s macktivities/hoetivities at this stage of the game. That alone should have given her pause before releasing this stuff.
2) Genevieve Cook is silly for releasing this diary because it shows her as a fool. This brotha told you he was looking for his Princess Tiana and you Snow White and you didn’t tell him to go head on and find his black queen and leave you the heck alone? And you were mad and frustrated he was “withdrawn” and ” withholding”? Really tho? He told you who he was, you should have believed him.
3) The diary excerpts are going to make black women love PBO more than they already did. I dang near swooned reading about him trying to find a black woman to complete him since he was a teen. Which is why when he saw Michelle the first day at Sidley Austin he sopped her up like a two piece with a biscuit and gravy.
4) Earth to Jodi Kantor: when you are writing a book about people’s feelings/personal lives, interview them. David Marniss interviewed PBO and asked him about his girlfriends so he knew about the new biography which is why there has been no pushback from the WH about this book.
isonprize, Thursday Open Thread
First of all, he is not a ‘specimen’ to be examined. BFD, he had girlfriends in college. This was before the internet and cellphones. People actually wrote letters. He was/is smart, introspective, and a good writer, even if a wee bit pretentious. But that’s to be expected. He knew he was smart, and it impressed the ladies…
Second, he dated white women. Again, BFD. Is this surprising? He was already a pretty ‘multicultural’ guy. Or is the real issue that he CHOSE A BLACK WOMAN TO MARRY???
Third, and probably the most screamingly obvious point, they all just mad ‘cuz he was mackin’ like crazy. He was good-looking, smart, in great shape. Putting on my amateur astrology hat — He’s a Leo ya know, the Lion, The Sun? He has always attracted attention even without trying. It’s pretty hard to ignore sunshine. And there’s a reason why the lion is the king of the jungle, they are gentle and caring, but vicious when they need to be.
Bottom line? He was pullin’ em. He STILL pulls ’em, it’s just that he has clearly made up his mind that Michelle is the ONLY ONE HE WANTS!!
They still haven’t found any real dirt, and would be truly surprised if they ever do. (You KNOW they are and have been looking) It’s obvious to me that he treated his women well. He also was wise enough to tell his story first, so what are any of them going to say, 20-25-30 years after the fact??

GN its more than that…
Its like Obama is the first collective black friend certain folk ever had and they must inspect him to make sure he is ok to be one of them or just be in their circle.
They are desperate for a clue to make sure he is one of them. He does not fit their preconceived notion of “blackness” or what not. As such, he must be investigated as a specimen and not a human being with every failings, curiousity, insecurities, youthfulness like they had.
It goes back to the very root of it all .. THEY don’t know black folk or see black folk as just regular folks.
Obama is not unique in the sense certain aspects make him to be. He himself as noted same. They are a lot of folks like him but they just are not in the collective consciousness or mainstream of America. Mainstream America functions on stereotypes or bias– it needs it in order to propel this bullshit of superiority.
It is been eye opening to see the level in which race and all its multifaceted problems has hurt America as a whole. Interesting to me.
But this level of intrusiveness and looking at him as a specimen is sickening. It is a symptom of all overall disease. I felt like taking a bath….
Everyone is heartbreaker at some point in their life. It is the story of life. Some find their soul mates in one try, others take ages. It is the story of life period. But the obsession with Obama is Cray!!!! Girl wow..
28 year old relationship vomit.. Everyone in for money and building self confidence. They keep trying to find something to make him less than human or make him seem unworthy in order to bolster their fragile mindset.
I told ya’ll before I saw it in Florida post election: America is having a nervous breakdown and its ugly.
Keep On Voting Against Your Interest Ya Freakin Idiots Comment of the Week
Just can’t vote for that nig…blah…black man, just can’t do it.
GOVCHRIS1988, Friday Open Thread
Let these people continue to be trapped into their backward ass thinking that a black man cannot lead them successfully. I’m glad their more forthright about why they will not vote for him. At least I can laud them for showing the courage of their convictions.
The funniest thing to me though, is that people are saying he was voted in because he was black. I was like D.L.Hughley, when he said, “Damn, since when did the largest liability to success become an asset once Barack Obama won?” It is amazing to see how racism just warps a person’s thought process. These folks believing that 13 to 14 % of the population was just enough for him to enter office. That Barack Obama ran like Huey Newton and didn’t have a platform. I surprisingly had more laughter than anger at them. These people are really ignorant. Really, REALLY ignorant.
These people look at Barack Obama, see everything he has from his work and diligence, and wonder why they, as white people living in squalor, haven’t made it to that thoroughfare. They must see to it that he loses, for if he doesn’t, it will only confirm what they fear most, that everything they had been taught from childhood was a lie. That being white in America is not the mealticket they once thought it was. The future stares them in the face everytime they see a clip of the State of the Union addresses, televised interviews and debates, or speeches and town hall meetings. They see the future, and it is their hell. Don’t be angered folks at these revelations, just keep going forward into the future while these folks are left behind in the outskirts of squalor and shame.
