Obama Space Hippies?...Or..

This blog seems to think the new Obama salute relates to an evil college prof who invaded the Enterprise.

As for me.. I hate to say it because I always hated HS numbnuts sexual entendre... but it seems more like "Hey girls, Look!"

Whichever... it's absolutely amazing how infantile and clueless the Obama campaign is! Unless they're yanking our chains. Yeah, that's it. It's a joke on everyone else!

 

You do know that it wasn't the Obama campaign but an independent company that did that on their own accord, right? So, your assessment of the Obama campaign based on this little tidbit is wholly unfounded.

Do some research.

 

So.. the INDEPENDENT Obama supporters thought it was a good idea.

Thanks for the info. BTW... got a link on that?

Everybody sing!

What do you think,
when I dont show a link?
Do you left-click and surf out on me?

- apologies to 'Little Help from my friends'

It's still funny, though... right? Or maybe not to you.

BTW: I have a whole collection of 'Obamessiah' images that I haven't troubled you guys with. Usually with a sunburst, behind..or with a unicorn .. walking on water, etc. So live with this!

 

Oh.. HERE it is, on a USNews Blog!

Read the comments.

Better quote this one before it's deleted:

- obviously ANOTHER D.M.O.M, like me.

 

Don, let me point out to you my own words:

"this blog seems to think...." Now WHERE did you get the idea I agreed with that, esp when I posted what I recalled ... and you probably do too ... that sign meant. Evidently a few others, geezers or not, think that as well.

My eyes DO work! In fact, on the 'Space Hippie' images, I flashed on "This is the Church..."
- - - - -- - - - - - - - -- - - - -
While I understand what the morons who came up with the sign WANTED to symbolize*, their BASIC symbolic 'O' would be BETTER served with THIS:


*Interlaced fingers symbolizing 'Unity with Obama' yeah.. right! Aint NEVER, till he shows me the stuff.
- - - - - - -- - - -
But now it aint funny, anymore, is it? Unless they pick MY image.. which could signify, "After Dubya, comes 'O' .."

Course THAT aint as funny as 'Dubya was a cheerleader". Hmm... which in our day meant he was either, at least, 'fey' {Merriam Webster #3a} OR he was, at least, a guy with an eye for the chicks.

Barbara: 'Watch those fingers on that palm boost, Georgie!"

Still not as funny.

heh...

Yup.

 

RE: Re: RE: Obama Space Hippies?...Or..

Guess you REALLY dont read well... as you can see -ABOVE-, I found it for myself.

And as I said, above... read the comments.

More irony and mirth lurks within
...famous Obama-Progress poster by artist Shepherd Fairey. Yeah... that juvenile humor is catching!

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Obama Space Hippies?...Or..

Actually, I read just fine. Do you always take the opportunity to make pathetic little jabs when they present themselves? Just curious.

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Obama Space Hippies?...Or..

Sometimes.. it's the crotchety old geezer bastid in me.

But if one reads threads, what's the point in posting the same link I said I found an hour earlier?

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Obama Space Hippies?...Or..

Because I replied first and read later. Perhaps you should do all of your research up front, rather than making baseless assumptions. If you'd done that, there wouldn't have been a need to furnish you with any such link.

Here, I have a better question: Why post thread after thread on a sports forum where the vast majority don't come here to debate or read about politics?

Why not find a political forum where people who care can reply, rather than spend thread after thread on the FulhamUSA.com message board opining to yourself on a myriad of news bits that most of us don't care about, or at least don't care to discuss with the likes of you.

Could it be because there's not much competition for you here? Could it be because you can say what you want and rest assured in your "rightness" (no pun intended) since the handful of people that reply don't really give you much of a fight?

It wouldn't be much of a big deal if you didn't post here with this false sense of superiority and speak to others with such a consistent level of condescension, but since we're here I might as well call you out on it. There's a way to talk about politics with people whose views differ from yours without being such a cock.

Just a thought.

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Obama Space Hippies?...Or..

whoa, easy boy.

Petty is the moderator - in my view he's just keeping the conversation going, taking care of things on the site, if you dont like it then maybe you should do the job yourself.

Come on we're all friends.

 

I agree -- there's no sense getting too mad about the political rants that go one here.

I look at Fog and Don like they are married -- they don't sleep together and they argue all of the time.

There is someone who posts on here who occasionally rankles me too, but I just tell myself that I am seeing a side of that person who does not know as much as he thinks he does, and that was me once in my younger years. Having someone that you think is nuts in your group is just part and parcel of any organization that is larger than a few members.

 

Wow, that salute thing really is a new high in "making something out of nothing".

 

Personally, I find Petty's posts entertaining and sometimes interesting and I want him to continue unabashed. You left fielders on the site are no better or worse than he is with regard to making political points and also lack the ability to undertand what is being said as well. Petty just does it with more creativeness than the rest of you.

Don, your post, while an attempt to be balanced is not so much from my perspective. You seem to be attempting to marginalize his political views by saying his is the crazy old uncle, while cute and all, may be interpreted the wrong way (or the right way by you if that was your intent) I took as a bit on an insult towards Petty.

Sublicon, if you don't like the political threads, don't read them or don't comment on them. Pretty easy.

 

Mod Note: Dont say that about Sublicon... he's hooked now. Right Don?

BTW, Sub... 'false sense of...'?

Research my handle {using 'i', instead of 'y'} and my avatar.

heh....

 

My point about Sublicon is while I appreciate his posts, and agree with him some of the time, especially about the Edwards deal, and he adds to this board, rather than question why you post these items; either don't respond if it bothers him or just ignore, laugh about it, or respond and try not get too side-ways over your responses. I actually enjoy reading the banter, just starts to get less enjoyable when folks start to get personal or question intelligence, marginalize point of view, just because they don't agree.

Having a difference of opinion is good thing and part of what makes this country a great place.

 

well, now that you have put 'cute' and uncle' together, I forgive you. ;-)

Initially I sort of got that but..........I am not very bright. Carry on.
