Jake smelled cigarette smoke on Barack!!! Let's read about the Capitol Hill run in that made little Jakey run home and tear down the sexy Obama posters off his bedroom wall:
We chatted for a second, mainly about the Pakistan speech he'd recently given and about how the media had covered it. He was in good spirits.
As any close friend or family member can attest, I have an unusually keen sense of smell and immediately I smelled cigarette smoke on Obama. Frankly, he reeked of cigarettes.
Obama ran off before I could ask him if he'd just snuck a smoke, so I called his campaign.
They denied it. He'd quit months before, in February, they insisted. He chewed nicorette.
But I knew what I'd smelled and I asked his campaign to double-check and to ask him if he'd had a cigarette.
They reported back that he had told them he hadn't had a cigarette since he quit.
And maybe that was true. Maybe I imagined the cigarette smoke. My olfactory nerve somehow misfired.
Except….last night on MSNBC's Hardball, Obama admitted that his attempt to wean himself from the vile tobacco weed had not been entirely successful.
“I fell off the wagon a couple times during the course of it, and then was able to get back on," he said. "But it is a struggle like everything else.”
...Except that I don't like feeling that I wasn't being dealt with honestly. And as much as citizens who are suspect of the media might scoff at such a notion, many of us consider ourselves to be your representatives to help make sure our leaders are telling us the truth, and leading the country down a path we're confident is the right one. (Corny, I know.)
Corny? Nah.
Pathetic excuse for journalism? Def.
PS: Jake, it wasn't a cigarette. It was a Black & Mild.
My crazy racist aunt strikes again. This time with a lovely piece of literature from Ken Blackwell, former Ohio Sec. of State and full-time W crony:
Subject: Fw: What a black columnist has to say about Obama....
HEED this man!!

It's an amazing time to be alive in America. We're in a year of firsts in this presidential election: the first viable woman candidate; the first viable African-American candidate; and, a candidate who is the first frontrunning freedom fighter over 70. The next president of America will be a first.
We won't truly be in an election of firsts, however, until we judge every candidate by where they stand. We won't arrive where we should be until we no longer talk about skin color or gender. Now that Barack Obama steps to the f ront of the Democratic field, we need to stop talking about his race, and start talking about his policies and his politics.
...Start with national security, since the President's most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Over the summer, Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation armed with nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table against terrorists - something no president has ever taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s. Even Democrats who have worked in national security condemned all of those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our national security at risk.
...Finally, look at the social issues. Mr. Obama had the audacity to open a stadium rally by saying, "All praise and glory to God!" but says that Christian leaders speaking for life and marriage have "hijacked" - hijacked - Christianity. He is pro-partial birth abortion, a nd promises to appoint Supreme Court justices who will rule any restriction on it unconstitutional. He espouses the abortion views of Margaret Sanger, one of the early advocates of racial cleansing. His spiritual leaders endorse homosexual marriage, and he is moving in that direction. In Illinois, he refused to vote against a statewide ban - ban - on all handguns in the state. These are radical left, Hollywood, and San Francis co values, not Middle America values.
The real Mr. Obama is an easy target for the general election. Mrs. Clinton is a far tougher opponent. But Mr. Obama could win if people don't start looking behind his veneer and flowery speeches. His vision of "bringing America together" means saying that those who disagree with his agenda for America are hijackers or warmongers. Uniting the country means adopting his liberal agenda and abandoning any conflicting beliefs.
But right now everyone is talking about how eloquent of a speaker he is and - yes - they're talking about his race. Those should never be the factors on which we base our choice for president. Mr. Obama's radical agenda sets him far outside the American mainstream, to the left of Mrs. Clinton.
It's time to talk about the real Barack Obama. In an election of firsts, let's first make sure we elect the person who is qualified to be our president in a nuclear age during a global civilizational war. Kind of scary, wouldn't you think Remember--God is good, and is in time, on time--every time. According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ is: The anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything. Is it OBAMA?? I STRONGLY URGE each one of you to repost this as many times as you can! Each opportunity that you have to send it to a friend or media outlet...do it! If you think I am crazy..I'm sorry but I refuse to take a chance on the "unknown" candidate.
My colleague Jeffrey Ressner was at Hillary's fundraiser last night at the Wilshire Theater in Los Angeles, and captured the audio (.wma) of a really jarring scene: a woman dragged out in handcuffs, screaming that she was the only black supporter of Hillary there. (She wasn't.)
Secret Service, Ressner e-mails, declined to comment.
Clinton herself had some fairly strong stuff to say, particularly on Florida and Michigan: "If we don't figure out Michigan and Florida, our candidate will lack the legitimacy that we want," she told the crowd.
...UPDATE: A Clinton volunteer at the Wilshire writes that he witnessed what happened before the woman was arrested:
"Not only did she attack another person at the event (she literally bit a woman, which drew blood and required bandages), she was screaming profanities and tried to urinate in the doorway to the theater! She was both verbally and physically confrontational to volunteers (I was one of them) and to the Secret Service, as well!"
Here's a video of the elderly Juan McCain speaking at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis today, the anniversary of the assassination of MLK.
He was booed.
You see, my friends, McWALNUTS! voted against the 1983 bill (along with Jesse Helms)that created MLK Day. A bill that Dick Cheney and L. Ron Paultard voted for.
He also apologized for piloting the La Amistad, and for sexing one of his many slaves on the McCain plantation back in the 1800's which produced the infamous South Carolina black baby.
Note to WALNUTS!: When apologzing for voting against MLK Day, you might not wanna have a black man holding your umbrella.
Here is a video of Randi Rhodes, who hosts a show on Air America. She's been suspended for calling Thundercunt and the original Thundercunt "fucking whores."
We've never heard of Randi before, but now that we have, we like her a whole lot. Even if she is a shitty comedian.
And probably a shitty talk-show host.
UPDATE:
I stand corrected. Thanks to faithful brickbat reader Bazz (if indeed that is his real name) I no longer blindly assume Randi is a shitty talk-show host. I for one welcome our new talk-show host skirt overlord:
Anyone who makes fun of Idaho Bathroom Goblin Larry Craig is a friend of mine.
Here's her response to the Mexico Bill saga. The famous Bearded-American had described his pre-Obama salvation phone call to Cankles, in which she told him "Obama can't win":
Hillary Clinton has recycled her 3am ad, this time directed at the elderly John McCain. Since he is so elderly, he goes to sleep at 6pm. Also, he is deaf, so he couldn't hear the phone ring anyway.
What Cankles McGee doesn't factor in is that WALNUTS! will be awake at 3am on account of his going problem.
Yesterday, we reported a story describing Bubba yelling at a room full of superdelegates about Bill Richardson being a Judas. Today, there are a few more details...atleast from the Clinton perspective:
While lobbying for his endorsement, Hillary Rodham Clinton flatly told New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson that Barack Obama could not win the presidency if he got the Democratic nomination.
"He cannot win, Bill. He cannot win," she said, according to a report by ABC News.
Despite her appeal, Richardson ultimately endorsed Obama - which sent Bill Clinton into a purple rage last weekend during a private meeting with California superdelegates.
"Five times to my face [Richardson] said that he would never do that," the former president thundered.
Funny thing.....Mexico Bill didn't promise Clinton, Inc. jack shit:
"I never did," Richardson told CNN. "I never saw [President Clinton] five times. I saw him when he watched the Super Bowl with me. We made it very clear to him that he shouldn't expect an endorsement after that meeting."
...In the interview Wednesday, Richardson acknowledged he was "very close to endorsing" Clinton, but decided not to after the campaign got "nasty."
"I held back. I waited. I felt the campaign got nasty. I heard Senator Obama; he would talk to me continuously," Richardson said.
The Condo Association President would like to remind you, once again, that he was tortured for our freedoms while the rest of America licked hits of acid off the breasts of muddy women in drum circles.
America's hottest traitor has endorsed St. Barack of Obama:
Fonda was eating out last night and exited the restaurant, ignoring as celebrities often do the assembled press contingent.
But a video camera was rolling as she approached the street and someone, perhaps just trying to get her to turn around for a picture, shouted out at her back, "Who are you going to vote for?"
There was a moment of silence. Then, the actress did turn around toward the cameras, paused and with a smile said simply, "Obama!" Then she got into a car and drove away.
Barbarella will now tour with Obama seated in a mounted gun turret atop the campaign bus just in case they pass the Straight Talk Express.
Hillary may not be bringing in as much campaign cash as Barry Hussein, but she and her husband have raked in alotta personal income since 2000:
Hillary Clinton has been pulling out all the stops to win the Democratic nomination for president -- but one: she still has not released her family's tax returns.
...An independent review by ABC News has found that since leaving the White House seven years ago, the senator and her former president husband have made well over $50 million, much of it from paid speeches made by Bill Clinton.
A review of Sen. Clinton's annual ethics filings found that her husband has earned $47 million in fees from more than 280 speeches he has made around the world.
Clinton's biggest patrons include New York-based investment firm Goldman Sachs, which paid him $650,000 for four speeches in recent years, and two foreign firms. Gold Services International, a Colombian-based event organizer, brought Clinton to Latin America in 2005 for four days of speeches, earning Clinton $800,000. Another company, Toronto-based Power Within, paid Clinton $650,000 for a series of motivational speeches in Canada in 2005.
Sen. Barack Obama raised better than $40 million for his presidential campaign in the month of March alone, bringing his total raised for the first three months of 2008 to a staggering $134 million.
Obama's fundraising machine continues to churn at historic levels. In March alone, 218,000 new donors contributed to Obama's campaign and a total of 442,000 people contributed to the campaign in the last month -- a reflection of the massively broad fundraising pool from which the Illinois Senator is drawing.
Thundercunt has not released her numbers yet, nor her tax returns.
Way back in 1957 — when John McCain was failing in college, the one that he visited today — he and some boys "sailed to Rio de Janeiro aboard a destroyer" in order to destroy Brazil. As John McCain wrote in his 1999 memoir, "My imagination could not have embellished the good time we made of our nine days in port." That's because he got laiiiiiiiiid! And then he went back to Brazil later to shtup her again, this Brazilian model. And then he went back yet again for even more sex. Does John McCain still go to Brazil to make this Brazilian gal?
...Ancient legend has it that if you creep into the woods of Brazil on certain muggy summer nights, with a full moon out and Mars and Venus in perfect alignment with the sun, you can hear John McCain softly masturbating in the rainforest canopy. "Take me home, I need to dress for dinner..." he whispers. And then his Hospice nurse finds him and takes him home, because he does not know how he got there.
Oliver Stone is filming his new crazy movie about the life of W. Unfortunately, W will not be played by Fred Thompson.
However, the movie will touch on these nuggets:
Rumors that his father pulled strings to get him into Harvard Business School.
His arrest during college for tearing down the goalposts at a football game.
Almost getting into a fistfight with his father when he comes home drunk one night in the 1970s.
His vow to quit drinking when he wakes up with a wicked hangover soon after his 40th birthday.
The first scene, in which Bush and his advisers brainstorm different terms to describe their global enemies, from "Axis of Hatred" to "Axis of Unbearably Odious," is followed by an early glimpse of the hard-drinking young man when he was a college student at Yale.
Drinking vodka mixed with orange juice out of a trash can at the DKE frat house, Bush impresses the fraternity leader with his ability to memorize the names of his fellow pledges.
Asked whether he'll follow in the steps of his politician father and grandfather, Dubya quips, "Hell no, that's the last thing in the world I'd want to do."
Years later, after Dubya drains a pint of Wild Turkey and runs over a pile of trash cans while driving home, his angry father tells him to call Alcoholics Anonymous, prompting Dubya to sarcastically deride his dad as "Mr. Perfect. Mr. War Hero. Mr F-- God Almighty."
The movie is scheduled for release in 2009. Shortly after the premier, expect Stone to disappear to Guantanamo where he will be waterboarded by President WALNUTS!
Looking to honor the forty-third President of the United States of America, George W. Bush, the recently formed Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is looking to change the name of the Oceanside Wastewater Treatment Facility. It seems the group would like to rename the SF Zoo adjacent facility to the "George W Bush Sewage Plant."
...The local grassroots movement, helmed by "Wayne Pickering," is proposing an ordinance initiative for the November 2008 San Francisco ballot in order to get the poop/pee/vomit plant's title changed. Why? To honor our current leader of the free world with an "appropriate and enduring legacy, for no other president in modern American history has accomplished so much in such a short time.
He may have switched from Democratic candidate for POTUS to Libertarian candidate for POTUS, but one thing that hasn't changed is the fact that Mike Gravel is still batshit insane.
Here's his latest ad, some Helter Skelter cover that proves he should be locked away until there is actually a position call President of Bat Country, of which he wins in a landslide:
The MSM wants to talk about cancer. More specifically, the elderly Juan McCain's face cancer. Watch the video to learn about the scandal that could transfer the power of the POTUS from an elderly Spanish-American War folklore hero to the bronzed hands of a scary Space Christian robot:
Sooooooo, this has to do with Universal Healthcare? I'm confused.
50 Cent was a Hillary supporter. Now he's a Barry supporter:
*During a recent interview with MTV at his Connecticut mansion, 50 Cent told reporters that he has switched from supporting Hillary Clinton for president to backing Barack Obama after hearing his speech on race.
"I heard Obama speak," said the rapper. "He hit me with that he-just-got-done-watching-'Malcolm X,' and I swear to God, I'm like, 'Yo, Obama!' "He threw his fist in the air. "I'm Obama to the end now, baby!"
But hold on, 50 also admitted that he's become bored with the overall race for the White House.
"To be honest, I haven't been following that anymore. I lost my interest," he said. "I listened to some of the debate and things that they were saying, and I just got lost in everything that was going on. ... Don't look for my vote, for me to determine nothing on that. Just say, '50 Cent, he don't know, so don't ask Fiddy.'
"I just think there's people that might not be ready for an African-American president," he continued. "It'll be an issue, believe it or not."
Hillary countered that she still has the support of MC Ren, because she still just doesn't get it.
Bill Clinton is losing it. First, this video of the Ametuer Gynecologist yelling at an audience member at a rally on Monday:
Now it seems that his new strategy to woo superdelegates is to yell at them as well:
In fact, before his speech Clinton had one of his famous meltdowns Sunday, blasting away at former presidential contender Bill Richardson for having endorsed Obama, the media and the entire nomination process.
"It was one of the worst political meetings I have ever attended," one superdelegate said.
According to those at the meeting, Clinton - who flew in from Chicago with bags under his eyes - was classic old Bill at first, charming and making small talk with the 15 or so delegates who gathered in a room behind the convention stage.
But as the group moved together for the perfunctory photo, Rachel Binah, a former Richardson delegate who now supports Hillary Clinton, told Bill how "sorry" she was to have heard former Clinton campaign manager James Carville call Richardson a "Judas" for backing Obama.
It was as if someone pulled the pin from a grenade.
"Five times to my face (Richardson) said that he would never do that," a red-faced, finger-pointing Clinton erupted.
The former president then went on a tirade that ran from the media's unfair treatment of Hillary to questions about the fairness of the votes in state caucuses that voted for Obama. It ended with him asking delegates to imagine what the reaction would be if Obama was trailing by just 1 percent and people were telling him to drop out.
"It was very, very intense," said one attendee. "Not at all like the Bill of earlier campaigns."
Realizing there are a limited number of things she can beat St. Barack at, Tracy Flick Sen. Thundercunt has now challenged his shitty bowling skills:
"This has been a very hard fought race. We need to do something so that our party and our people can make the right decision. So I have a proposal: today I am challenging Senator Obama to a bowl off. A bowling night right here in Pennsylvania. Winner take all. I'll even spot him two frames. "It's time for his campaign to get out of the gutter and allow all of the pins to be counted. And I'm prepared to play this game all the way to the tenth frame. and when this game is over the American people will know when that phone rings at 3am they'll have a president who's ready to bowl on day one. So let's strike a deal and go bowling for delegates. We don't have a moment to spare.
"Because it's already April Fool's Day. So happy April Fool's Day everyone."
It may be April Fools Day, but Sen. Barack Obama was acting like it was Valentine’s Day. He was in full charm mode while touring the Tama Manufacturing plant, a JC Penny supplier of made-in-the-USA clothing in Allentown.
Obama was especially flirtatious today, winking and grinning at the female workers who were swooning behind their cell phone cameras. Tama President Mark Fogelman told quality inspector Carol Davis not to be nervous when she talked to Obama, even though he was “only the next president” greeting her. Obama smiled ear to ear as he looked at her work, saying: “These look pretty comfortable, this is all pretty leisure wear.”
Barack also took a page from Chris Matthews' book and groped some helpless lady live on the teevees:
This hit my BB 5 times today from various relatives. Let's see exactly how much Barry Hussein hates America:
Subject: AMuslim bytheir law cannot be an American so should this one be our President ?
The following is pretty potent stuff and Hussein has had a free ride as expected from the Main Stream Media. It is up to you - us - to get it out and to help force a response. The American people need answers about this man and in the sprit of fairness we will listen for and listen to his response when and if and if it is forthcoming.
: Hussain Obama has never been properly vented as note the big "SURPRISE" the Media experienced when his Church of twenty years was exposed as a Hate America and Whites hot bed of black racisism. There is more to come it would seem reasonable to expect. The writer of the following has some pretty strong data that has been leaking out in bits and pieces for a while now. At some point Hussein will have to make a complete factual ,provable review of the points carried here. Are they true ? If not refuted then they are. If refuted without evidence that they are false then the are, again true. There is no harm in asking these questions considering what he is asking of his followers and that is to follow him blindly. The Bible has warned us that 'A man will come from the East that will be charismatic in nature and have proposed solutions for all our problems and his rhetoric will attract many supporters!' This man fits every description from the Bible of the 'Anti-Christ'!
Who is Barack Obama? Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHEIST from Wichita, Kansas.
Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia.
When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia. Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in a Catholic school.
Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, 'He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school.'
Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that he is not a radical.
Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his son's education.
Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta. Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world. Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.
Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegiance nor will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches. Do you want someone like this as your PRESIDENT?
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential candidacy.
The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level - through the President of the United States, one of their own!
Please forward to everyone you know. Would you want this man leading our country?.... NOT ME
Posting this email is another way I didn't let the terrorists win today.
Retired construction worker Wally Wallington of Flint, Michigan is moving one-ton concrete blocks over a ton each by himself without using pulleys or any mechanical equipment. He's reconstructing Stonehenge singlehandedly.
Funny story. Because of this gross display of narcissism, Ariel's father, Gary, is now under federal investigation. Seems Gary is an "oil man" who swindled investors out of millions of dollars:
...the show was so over-the-top that it caught the attention of the feds, speeding up the investigation of Milby's wrongdoing [NYT]. First time ever "My Super Sweet 16" has displayed redeeming social value! Below, a clip from the show, leading up to Ariel's "Fairytale" party. Here's a fairy tale, mean girl: your wealth. Ha ha.
According to the Vatican, Islam has overtaken Roman Catholicism as the largest "single religious denomination in the world.":
Monsignor Vittorio Formenti, who compiled the Vatican's newly-released 2008 yearbook of statistics, said Muslims made up 19.2 percent of the world's population and Catholics 17.4 percent.
"For the first time in history we are no longer at the top: the Muslims have overtaken us," Formenti told Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano in an interview, saying the data referred to 2006.
He said that if all Christian groups were considered, including Orthodox churches, Anglicans and Protestants, then Christians made up 33 percent of the world's population -- or about 2 billion people.
The Vatican recently put the number of Catholics in the world at 1.13 billion people. It did not provide a figure for Muslims, generally estimated at around 1.3 billion.
The report stated the reason for this was higher birth rates among Muslims, which is news to us.
Either way, Lou Dobbs should really back off the Messicans and reconsider his position.
I for one would rather press 1 for English than have to forego libations.
Do you know who Lou Dobbs, the orange-headed anti-Mexican elitist, hates more than The Illegals? Cotton-pickin' politicians such as Condoleezza Rice! You see, "cotton-pickin'" refers to people who pick cotton, and is a term of derision used by angry old men of a certain age who prefer arcane insults over nice all-purpose Anglo-Saxon adjectives. Fortunately for Dobbs, he stops himself midway through this terrible slur and avoids touching that tar baby.
The famous screenwriter/blogger asks Sen. Thundercunt to drop out for reasons we totally agree with:
I would like to put myself among the growing chorus of people demanding that Hillary Clinton withdraw from the election. I don't really think it's fair to ask her to withdraw, and I certainly don't believe she's going to; she'll hang in there till the last dog dies, or till she runs out of money, whichever comes first. I'm not asking her to withdraw because I prefer Obama, and I don't think she should withdraw "for the sake of party unity," or whatever current bromide is being flung at her to get her to pull out. I think she should withdraw because I'm losing my mind.
