Obama Unplugged — “Umm…,” “Uhh…,” “Ahh…” for America

Posted on July 22, 2008 by Riley

During Barry Obama’s press conference today, that clocked in at 40 minutes, a full 8 minutes or 20 percent of it consisted of him going, “umm…,” “uhh…,” or “ahh…”  Audio of this strung together was played on Rush Limbaugh today and was painful to listen to — and that was just the 46 second version.  [...]

Obama In Berlin

Posted on July 22, 2008 by Riley

As Barry Obama gets ready to head to Berlin later this week (let’s hope that he doesn’t proclaim himself a “Berliner” as JFK did since that word in German actually means “jelly donut,” NOT resident of Berlin), we take a look at Obama’s German campaign poster and notice a profound similarity with other propoganda.
