The right is FREAKED over the Obama trips. You can tell from the MSM and the pundits..

[Neshanic]

that this is huge. The RW pundits just really can't get this story in a box they can control, so they are in panic mode.

The images of hundreds of thousands greeting him in Europe will freaking blow them away!

[dkf]

1. We are not the only ones who want a sane leader...the rest of the

world wants us to have one too.

[hisownpetard]

2. Well said!!

[Peacetrain]

3. And they should be!! NT

[babylonsister]

4. "just really can't get this story in a box they can control" - you

are so right! It will be amusing to listen to how they try to spin this. And probably revolting.

[wurzel]

5. Andre Mitchell said "It will make Obama seem even more foreign"

Apparently it is "foreign" for an American President to have a positive image in Europe. She also said it will seem "anti-American". And this "reporter" still has her job?

[chitty]

6. HUH!

She actually said that?

WTF -she needs to be shit canned.

[Sparkly]

7. Just heard another winger say he can't look "TOO presidential"

or he'll seem "presumptuous." Unbelievable.

[eShirl]

9. what he really means is, more presidential than Bush

which is a pretty low bar

[Cheap_Trick]

10. I just had a bowel movement that is more presidential than *

and probably smells better than * too.....

[Brigid]

21. My cat box smells better than *.

And it needs to be cleaned.

[polmaven]

14. Pretty low bar is right!

I just saw a squirrel that looked more presidential than Bush. Tail proudly flipping back and forth. Gathering food to take home to his family. Climbing to the top on his own with no help from rigged tree branches.

Senator Obama was more presidential than Bush when he was a twinkle in his mother's eye. (Come to think of it, that was quite some twinkle, eh?)

[butterfly77]

31. Exactly...

[TankLV]

36. I heard that too - but aparently bunkerboy's act in front of a mock oval office setup during the

2000 Selection when everything was still in doubt was just fine...

and yet ANY so called dem pundit they put on never ever remembers any of this shit to counter the repuke media whores...

[eShirl]

8. funny, it's the republibots that seem foreign and un-American to me

Obama seems like a normal human American, just what we need FINALLY!

[SOS]

11. Hey Andrea!

Did the events below make JFK look more "foreign"?





Translation: Kennedy: "I am a Berliner"
Triumph for freedom - Hundreds of thousands celebrate the American President.

[rucky]

13. What if he's there to kick some butt?

[Whisp]

15. campbell brown from CNN - on Obama's suggestion to learn another language...

was just about to ask whether it could be seen as 'unpatriotic' to learn another language but one of the panel, i forget who it was, just pounded her on that before she could finish her line. one of the best public ass whoopins' I've seen her deservedly get.

[vaberella]

19. They're out of their minds. The point is this is equivalent

to not wanting Blacks to read and write. In my opinion the mindset is still there. Let's be serious. There is NOT one single disadvantage to learning another language. ONLY advantage. To think it's unpatriotic is retarded.

I wonder hearing that the Chrysler building is being sold to the Chinese is unpatriotic. No, that's just helping the national debt.

[WinkyDink]

26. You will remember "Freedom Fries". We are a deeply mentally-disturbed populace.

[butterfly77]

32. I no what you mean...

and it has been happening a lot more lately. Brown is another Republicon who uses bush's talking points a lot. I really,really can't stand that Rick Sanchez on CNN their are so many things that are obvious and irritating about him. He seems to think that when we turn on a newscast we want to hear his opinion and desciption about a piece he is about to show. He also talks over the guests..

[Butch350]

17. And Mitchell talks as if she is in a Stupor...

[Phx_Dem]

24. Andrea Mitchell really is a dumb bitch.

If that sounds mysogynist, too bad. I'm a woman so I can say it. And it's true.

[butterfly77]

30. In other words..

she is saying "Foreign" means not like us, terrorist,muslim etc..The term"not like us" is used repeatedly by Tweety and Pat Buchanan.

[BeyondGeography]

34. Mrs. Greenspan should just retire and spend more time with her pet reptile

[TheDonkey]

37. LOL. Oh Andrea keep trying honey!!!

[goodgd_yall]

12. This is what I keep thinking the Republicans will say

in order to discount Obama's enthusiastic reception on his tour: Who cares if foreign countries like him? He's running for President of the United States, not President of Europe.

[Sparkly]

16. I think the MSM is following him around waiting for a "mistake."

ANY "mistake" they can blow up into something "controversial."

It's crazy how many such "mistakes" they let McCain get away with!!!

[vaberella]

18. You mean MILLIONS. If he goes to Germany; expect French, British, Italian, Spanish...

and basically all of West and Eastern Europe to be there. Germany is a skip away. Shoot I might be going, if I don't have school.

[Whisp]

20. if they haven't already they will say that Obama is cutting and running

whats he doing with all them foreigners when there is so much to do at home. how come he can't bring gas prices down tomorrow and solve the mortgage crisis - by next week Tuesday.

[WinkyDink]

27. That would be "furriners".

[writes3000]

22. You are so right, Neshanic. So right. n/t

[grantcart]

23. wait until he gets to Europe

They will turn out in the hundreds of thousands as a way to try and encourage the United States to make the right decision.

It will be their only opportunity to 'vote'.

[Canadiana]

25. His reception in Europe is going to be absolutely unreal.

[vaberella]

28. Exactly. Obama makes the Pope's crowd look like a Scooby Doo III premiere night.

[Whisp]

35. i think so too. have to watch it online bbc or something

because moe than likely the CNNs are going to downplay it and get all snippy about it all.

enough with the speeches and rallies.
:rofl:

[butterfly77]

29. This is just Obama's first stop...

and you can already tell their anger is building because they can't control the story.. I wonder what their story will be once he returns to the United States.

[saltpoint]

33. The poor dears. I have an image of Brit Hume, home pouting in

a corner of his kitchen, refusing phone calls.

Actually it's kind of hard to tell when Brit Hume is pouting and when he is not pouting. He always seems to be pouting, whether he's pouting or not.

Europeans are likely to turn out in droves to hear Senator Obama's addresses, and who could blame them? They've had to endure 8 years of Bush as well. They could use a lift, and Obama will likely provide it.

[tsuki]

38. M$M has been in an absolute stir since Obama mentioned the

words, "media ownership diversity."

Got all the one-percenters in a tizzy. What will happen to their multi-million yearly contracts?

We should all take a lesson from the news readers. They know how to act in their own best interests.

[Kahuna]

39. Andrea Mitchell is visibly stricken.

:applause:
