President Obama’s embarrassing Freudian slip

A guy is standing in line to buy a train ticket and he can’t take his eyes off the girl behind the counter, who has huge, perfect boobs…

Do you know the old joke about Freudian slips? It’s one of our favorites:

A guy is standing in line to buy a train ticket and he can’t take his eyes off the girl behind the counter, who has huge, perfect boobs.

freudian-slip-two-tickets
Freud said, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." But he'd never met Monica Lewinsky.

When he gets to the front of the line, he says, “Give me two pickets to Titsburgh…uhhh…I mean two tickets to Pittsburgh”.

He’s really embarrassed, but the next guy in line laughs and says, “Relax, buddy. We all make Freudian slips like that.”

“Freudian slip?” the first guys says. “What’s a Freudian slip?”

“That’s when you mean to say one thing, but say another,” the second guy says. “Like the other day at breakfast when I meant to say to my wife, ‘Please pass the sugar’, but I accidentally said, ‘You’ve ruined my life, you miserable bitch!'”

The Associated Press reports President Obama’s Freudian slip:

Flying thousands of miles to reap millions of dollars, President Barack Obama is dashing across the country to help his party retain power, essentially offering one familiar argument: Republicans don’t solve problems.

“Don’t give in to fear,” Obama said Monday in his latest ominous vision of a country led by the opposition party. “Let’s reach for hope.”

Obviously, he meant to say, “Let’s reach for your wallet.”

Don’t you hate it when that happens?

Barack Obama 6, George Bush 0

No matter how much someone may love Barack Obama, that love pales in comparison to the love he has for himself. He is, as he said, the one he has been waiting for.

No matter how much someone may love Barack Obama, that love pales in comparison to the love he has for himself. He is, as he said, the one he has been waiting for.

Take this week’s radio message to the nation — the one in which he talked about the successful end of combat operations in Iraq.

Oddly enough, he didn’t mention the name George Bush. Not once. He did, on the other hand, say “I” six times in five minutes and twenty-six seconds. But none of them came in a sentence that said, “I was wrong about the surge.”

Bye-bye: Swing states rapidly swinging away from Obama

And now let’s join the Democrats as they bid a fond farewell to majorities in the House and maybe the Senate.

And now let’s join the Democrats as they bid a fond farewell to majorities in the House and maybe the Senate.

Public Policy Polling has the news of the Democrats dwindling hopes in November:

In Florida Obama’s approval is 39% with 55% of voters disapproving of him. 88% of Republicans disapprove while just 73% of Democrats approve and independents go against him by a 52/36 margin. Only 78% of people who voted for him in 2008 like the job he’s doing while 93% who voted against him disapprove.

In Pennsylvania Obama’s approval is 40% with 55% of voters disapproving of him. 85% of Republicans disapprove while just 68% of Democrats approve and independents go against him by a 63/32 margin. Only 78% of people who voted for him in 2008 like the job he’s doing while 93% who voted against him disapprove, identical numbers to Florida on that count.

In Ohio Obama’s approval is 42% with 54% of voters disapproving of him. 94% of Republicans disapprove while only 79% of Democrats approve and independents go against him by a 58/33 margin. Only 76% of people who voted for him in 2008 approve while 91% who voted against him disapprove.

Obviously it’s a long way from 2012 but these swing state numbers for Obama are pretty brutal and underscore why Democrats could lose a whole lot of House seats this year in those states.

In the words of Ella Fitzgerald, “It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing.”

When will Auntie Zeituni be joining the big Obama family vacation in Martha’s Vineyard?

It’s been a busy week here at IHateTheMedia.com and in all the excitement we may have missed the heartwarming scenes of President Obama greeting his closest living relative at his $50,000 a week beach house in Martha’s Vineyard.

President Obama's beloved Auntie Zeituni. Or James Brown. We're not sure which.

It’s been a busy week here at IHateTheMedia.com and in all the excitement we may have missed the heartwarming scenes of President Obama greeting his closest living relative at his $50,000 a week beach house in Martha’s Vineyard.

What’s that? Auntie Zeituni hasn’t been invited to Martha’s Vineyard from her home in nearby Boston? The poor old lady must be horribly disappointed, because we hear she bought a new bikini and everything.

Doesn’t the President want his daughters to know their closest living relative? Doesn’t the President want America’s First Lady to spend some quality time with the Obama family’s First Lady? Doesn’t the President want to remind the American people that his favorite auntie is the face of illegal aliens in America?

Some family vacation this is.

Jimmy Kimmel answers the “Is Obama A Muslim?” question once and for all

Why must late night comedians do the job that supposedly legitimate reporters won’t do? Jimmy Kimmel’s ace staff found an old video clip that answers the questions about Obama’s religious beliefs once and for all.

School Daze: Maryland’s environmentally-correct Barack Hussein Obama Elementary School opens

Think how proud you would be to have your child attend Barack Obama Elementary School. Why it’s almost enough to make you pack up and move the family to Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

Think how proud you would be to have your child attend Barack Obama Elementary School. Why it’s almost enough to make you pack up and move the family to Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

It’s not the first school named after the president, but it’s the first one right there in the Washington, D.C. area.

If the school reflected real life, its uniforms would be half black, half white. They wouldn’t have a football team, but they would have a golf team. The team name would be the Fighting Muslims. The students wouldn’t have to learn anything, because all the answers would be on the Teleprompter. They wouldn’t need their ABCs, but they would need their MSNBCs. Math classes would only deal in negative numbers.

Neil Cavuto says “one and done,” predicts Obama won’t run for a second term

Every time a president gets down in the polls during his first term, some pundit predicts that he won’t run for a second term. You may remember that Rush Limbaugh made the same prediction about Bill Clinton and it seemed just as reasonable then as it seems now.

Nevertheless, Fox News’ Neil Cavuto makes an interesting argument.

Uh-oh. Obama has a polling problem far worse than the one that shows 24% of Americans think he’s Muslim

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any worse for the 21 century’s answer to Jimmy Carter, along comes this poll from Rasmussen

Keep an eye on her, Barack, keep an eye on her

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any worse for the 21 century’s answer to Jimmy Carter, along comes this poll from Rasmussen:

Forty-eight percent (48%) of U.S. voters now regard President Obama’s political views as extreme. Forty-two percent (42%) place his views in the mainstream, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.

By comparison, 51% see the views of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as mainstream. Thirty-five percent (35%) think Clinton’s views are extreme. Fourteen percent (14%) are undecided.

There you go, President Obama – your legacy. You’ll go down in history as the first person who ever made someone as liberal as Hillary Clinton look mainstream.

Misty water-colored memories: Obama said the surge would make Iraq’s sectarian violence even worse

This clip will probably be on every website in the world the day of the speech, so we thought we might just beat everyone to the punch and remind you what Senator Obama said about President Bush’s troop surge.

The President is giving another of his droning addresses to the nation on August 31 to celebrate the end of combat in Iraq blah-blah-blah. You know, the speech where he’ll talk about his contributions and neglect to mention Bush or the success of the troop surge or the fact that we still have combat troops in Iraq, but we’re calling them by a different name.

This clip will probably be on every website in the world the day of the speech, so we thought we might just beat everyone to the punch and remind you what Senator Obama said about President Bush’s troop surge.

New York Times wants Obama to become Islam’s “very special leader”

Add liberal New York Times columnist (pardon our redundancy) Thomas Friedman to the list of those who think President Obama is Muslim. At least that’s our takeaway from his latest column.

The New York Times Thomas Friedman in the middle of having a deep thought

Friedman’s flash of insight came while watching a movie about Nelson Mandela:

Speaking of South Africa’s whites, Mandela adds, “We have to surprise them with restraint and generosity.”

I love that line: “We have to surprise them.” I was watching the movie on an airplane and scribbled that line down on my napkin because it summarizes what is missing today in so many places: leaders who surprise us by rising above their histories, their constituencies, their pollsters, their circumstances–and just do the right things for their countries.

According to Friedman’s theory, Islam needs “a very special leader” who can lead “a political surge by Arabs and Muslims to heal intracommunal divides.” So far, so good. But this is where Friedman’s theory goes off the tracks. Seriously off the tracks.

It would be great if President Obama surprised everyone and gave another speech in Cairo–or Baghdad–saying that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BrDsH0ECHASay what? Is Friedman suggesting that he thinks Obama can become Islam’s “very special leader”? Doesn’t that say, by definition, that Obama is Muslim? And isn’t that the kind of thing Friedman would normally accuse conservatives of saying?

Let’s just consider ourselves lucky that the airline didn’t show this cartoon before the movie or Friedman may have proposed that Mickey Mouse become Islam’s special leader.

Is Obama a Christian? Chris Matthews doesn’t think you should take him at his word.

Mitch McConnel’s words, “take him at his word,” sent Chris Matthews over the edge on Monday’s Hardball. He apparently got his hands on a birther decoder ring, because he informed his viewers that the words “take him at his word,” when translated, provide a “Pitch perfect dog whistle to the haters.”

Why? Why would you take Barack Obama at his word when he’s lied about everything – and we mean everything – since the day he took office. Even before.

Republican Senate Minority Leader MitchMcConnell appeared on Sunday’s Meet the Press. MSNBC’s increasingly-wacky Chris Matthews accused McConnell of using super secret code language to send messages to birthers when he said, “The President says he’s a Christian. I take him at his word.”

The words “take him at his word” sent Matthews over the edge on Monday’s Hardball. He apparently got his hands on a birther decoder ring, because he informed his viewers that the words “take him at his word,” when translated, provide a “Pitch perfect dog whistle to the haters.”

And Matthews was just getting warmed up. He then came up with a grand conspiracy McConnell, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Rev. Franklin Graham to scare the bejeebers out of voters with a “message of fear.” They’re the ringleaders of “The right wing’s attempt to de-Americanize the President.”

Is it just us or is the left starting to sound increasingly desperate?

Yale monkey to join Obama economic team?

One can’t watch this TED lecture from Yale psychology Professor Laurie Santos without coming to the conclusion that a monkey’s understanding of the free market is just as irrational as President Obama’s.

Uh-oh. We tread on very thin ice when we compare President Obama to a monkey. As we recall from the New York Post cartoon controversy, that quickly gets you labeled as a racist.

And yet one can’t watch this TED lecture from Yale psychology Professor Laurie Santos without coming to the conclusion that a monkey’s understanding of the free market is just as irrational as President Obama’s.

She taught our primate relatives to use currency and discovered that “monkeynomics” is very similar to Obamanomics because the primates also continue to repeat the same irrational mistakes over and over again.

Wrong and wronger: Obama brags about Ohio police station built with stimulus money

It really is amateur hour at the White House these days. President Obama made a campaign appearance Presidential address in Ohio and made one mistake after another.

It really is amateur hour at the White House these days. President Obama made a campaign appearance Presidential address in Ohio and made one mistake after another.

The Columbus Dispatch has the correct info on the President’s incorrect info:

barack-obama-wrong-twice
Obama doubles down: It wasn't a police station and it wasn't built with stimulus money. But other than that...

A local project that President Barack Obama cited during a visit Wednesday to Columbus as an example of how the federal stimulus package has worked isn’t actually being funded with stimulus dollars.

The president spoke at the North Side home of architect Joe Weithman, and both Obama’s comments and information from the White House touted Weithman’s work on a project that the president said was being at least partially funded by the $787 billion stimulus bill passed last year.

“What we’ve been trying to do is to build infrastructure that puts people back to work but also improves the quality of life in communities like Columbus,” Obama said in his remarks. “So Joe is an architect, and he’s now working on a new police station that was funded in part with Recovery Act funds.”

But although federal money is being used for the project in question, there are no stimulus dollars involved, said Columbus Finance Director Paul Rakosky, a Democrat.

Rakosky said the project is not a police station but rather the renovation of an abandoned warehouse that the city purchased on the South Side in 2007 to house the city’s police crime lab and property room.

Oopsie! Double oopsie! (And that’s what passes as in-depth political commentary here at IHateTheMedia.com.)

Out: “Jobs created or saved.” In: “Lives touched.”

Looks the Obama Administration has now given up on the much-derided term “jobs created or saved” and moved on to the even sillier “lives touched.”

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnPTx7lM1ngIf the Obama administration was half as creative about creating jobs as it is about creating new doublespeak, unemployment would be a thing of the past.

Looks like they’ve now given up on the much-derided term “jobs created or saved” and moved on to the even sillier “lives touched.”

Oregon’s KVTZ has Obama’s latest nonsense:

While DOE reports that it created 10,018 jobs through May of this year, the department has also used a more unorthodox methodology to inflate job creation in some of its reports, a methodology the GAO says may mislead the public. For example, using the method GAO was critical of, the agency reports roughly 20,000 jobs created through May of this year, counting the number of “lives touched” in some documents.

We’re pretty sure most Americans would agree with the Tubes and say, “Don’t touch me there.”

New York Times writer confesses that Obama chooses golf over God

New York Times writer Jeff Zeleney guested on MSNBC’s “The Daily Rundown” to discuss the issue and he exposed the president as a part time holy roller, with more of his Sunday mornings spent tending to putting than praying.

A new Pew Research poll shows that an increasing number of Americans (one in five) now believe Barack Obama is a Muslim. (NOTE: A Time poll also released Thursday says 24% of voters believe the President is a Muslim.)

New York Times writer Jeff Zeleney guested on MSNBC’s “The Daily Rundown” to discuss the issue and he exposed the president as a part time holy roller, with more of his Sunday mornings spent tending to putting than praying.

No surprise to the American public there, but it was astounding to hear what the White House’s solution to the poll will be. Zeleney advised host Chuck Todd that Obama will now switch to campaign mode (at the 4:09 mark of the video).

“What does the president do almost every Sunday?” Zeleney asked. “He plays golf. I think now you’ll be seeing Obama go to church more, white churches, black churches, you name it churches, to show he is Christian.”

So Obama will limit his golf outings to attend Sunday services, not to pray and worship, but to make political hay. The president’s handicap isn’t nineteen, it’s his pandering.

Co-host Savannah Guthrie attempted to end the segment by reminding viewers that the poll was taken before the President’s remarks on the Ground Zero mosque, implying that the numbers might even be worse now. But cohost and White House water boy Todd couldn’t let the segment close on a negative note so he interrupted to tell viewers “The President gets a daily Bible verse sent to his Blackberry. Every. Single. Day.”

But tell us, Chuck, does he also get passages from the Koran? And which does he delete, which does he read?

Join our movement: It’s time to honor Barack Obama by putting his likeness on American currency

America honors its greatest leaders by putting their likenesses on its currency. We believe it’s high time that Barack Obama, The Greatest President In History, receives this same honor. Unfortunately, most of the bills are taken.

America honors its greatest leaders by putting their likenesses on its US currency. We believe it’s high time that Barack Obama, The Greatest President In History, receives this same honor. Unfortunately, most of the denominations are taken.

Arizona sheriff wants to show Obama how to secure border

Sheriffs in Arizona seem to grow cojones the size of Yuma watermelons. Paul Babeu, the Sheriff of Pinal County, Arizona, has a message for President Obama:

Sheriffs in Arizona seem to grow cojones the size of Yuma watermelons. Paul Babeu, the Sheriff of Pinal County, Arizona, has a message for President Obama:

“If the president gave me a half hour,” Babeu said, “I am confident that I could convince him and to show him the way that he can personally secure the border, and he would be the hero of everybody that truly transcends bipartisan politics and secures that border. I believe that if a leader truly wanted to do that we have the means and the resources necessary to secure our border and to protect America once and for all, and then we can get to the point in the future, only after the border is secure, that there is some type of discussion about what do we do with the approximate 13 million people who are here illegally.” 


Pinal County, located in Southern Arizona is a major route for smugglers bringing narcotics and illegal aliens across the Mexican border.

C’mon, President Obama, you visited Afghanistan in an effort to pretend you care about that war. Don’t you owe it to the people of Arizona to at least fake it for them, too?

“The Obama family will begin their sixth holiday of the year today, an 11-day sojourn in Martha’s Vineyard, the island destination of the wealthy and well-connected American elite.”

Dissension in the ranks: Barney Frank calls Obama dumb

Barney Frank knows a sinking ship when he’s on one. He actually used the word “dumb” while describing President Obama.

barney frank obama dumb
Portrait of a rat deserting a sinking ship

Barney Frank knows a sinking ship when he’s on one. He actually used the word “dumb” while describing President Obama.

The Hill has the money quote:

“President Obama, whom I greatly admire … when the economic recovery bill — we’re supposed to call it the ‘recovery bill,’ not the ‘stimulus’ bill; that’s what the focus groups tell us — he predicted or his aides predicted at the time that if it passed, unemployment would get under 8 percent,” Frank said Tuesday evening during an appearance on the Fox Business Network. “That was a dumb thing to do.”

It was dumb. Remarkably dumb. Perhaps even as dumb, Barney, as admitting on national television that Democrats allow focus groups to craft their message.

Gulf Coast now “Open For Business.” Unless, of course, you mean oil business

Savior-In-Chief Barack Obama mandated on Saturday that the Gulf Coast is now “open for business.” So just how “open” is it?

Savior-In-Chief Barack Obama mandated on Saturday that the Gulf Coast is now “open for business.” So just how “open” is it?

obama gulf coast beach
Good news! President Obama says the Gulf Coast is "Open for Business."

Well, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar still has his boot on the throats of America’s evil oil barons and offshore drilling is still illegal, so it seems that that the President may be overstating his case.

The White House should refer back to a Yahoo News story from July 27 that cites some very interesting economic predictions.

According to AFP:

A study by Louisiana State University finance professor Joseph Mason estimates the six-month moratorium, which ends in late November, would cost more than 8,000 jobs in Gulf states of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas.

Nearly 500 million dollars in wages will be wiped out by the deepwater drilling ban, as will be 2.1 billion dollars in economic activity and some 100 million dollars in state and local tax revenues.

But the impact of the moratorium would not stop there, the study warned.

At least 12,000 jobs could be lost nationwide, and with them would go around 200 million dollars in federal tax revenues.

We’re eagerly awaiting the President’s explanation of his comments. But we’re pretty sure the “business” he refers to is probably nothing more than another government-sponsored bailout program.

Obama’s doing poorly among the poor: Approval under 50% for the first time

The latest Gallup poll. It shows that every – repeat, every – income group now gives President Obama an approval rating of less than 50%.

Gulp.

That’s the sound being heard in the White House as they review the numbers in the latest Gallup poll. It shows that every – repeat, every – income group now gives President Obama an approval rating of less than 50%. Even those making less than $2,000 per month have finally tired of the guy.

This is the first time Obama that all four income groups in Gallup’s weekly survey gave Obama less than 50 percent approval.

Imagine how heartbreaking it must be when you finally realize that Obama’s not going to pay for your house and your gasoline.
