Obama Insults the Dignity of Special-Needs Americans


There he goes again - the mean Beverly Hillbilly.

[h/t RottDawg, Jeff Emanuel, and ABG]

Presidential Ass-Hattery of the Day: To Leno, and clearly adrift from binky his TelePrompTer, about his bowling ineptitude : “It’s like Special Olympics.”

Ah, no, Barry. Actually, it’s nothing like Special Olympics. This……

Homer

….is like Special Olympics.

They offer dignity to people who legitimately need help. They defend the weak. You defend the lazy, the dishonest, the professionally offended, and the freeloaders. That makes you different from them. Quite a bit different.

What, you may ask, is the big deal over what was clearly an innocent little slip of the tongue? Oh, nothing, really. It does bring a couple of things to mind, though….

(1) It wasn’t a slip of the tongue. It was inconsiderate, rude, and insulting. That little gift-exchange fiasco with Gordon Brown along with this, reveals a vain, self-important, small man.

(2) You would have aborted most or all of the people you mocked. Or if the abortion was botched, you’d be just fine with having them left to die in a clothes hamper. I know that because not only did you vote in April 2002 against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in Illinois, you defended your vote repeatedly and publicly, and voted against it in multiple incarnations.

(3) I know somebody probably forgot to tell you, but the job you currently hold involves more than just driving our nation into poverty and socialism, dismantling the Constitution, and stealing freedoms away from Americans. Because of the job you hold (not because of your unrivaled awesomeness), the words that *issue from your pie-hole have a large effect. Recently for weeks you talked up the “crisis” situation, driving the stock market down and unemployment up. You spoke in favor of including “buy American only” in Porkulus - and Mexico and Canada heard.

(4) For a couple of decades now, white Americans have been taught that there are no slips of the tongue - anything I say or do that can be remotely construed by professionally offended chowderheads like Al Sharpton to be racist - makes me a racist. A John McCain campaign ad that was astonishing in its lack of racism was widely reviled as racist by Democrats and the press. Indeed, 58% of American blacks said it was racist. Yes, that would be this ad. See if you can find the racist part. No really, watch it 3 or 4 times if you need to.

So we’ve learned to watch what we say, because we don’t actually have to be racist to be called racist. The thanks we get for our discretion is that Barry’s AG Eric “I sprung Marc Rich” Holder calls us a nation of cowards, afraid to have a dialogue about race. BTW, eat this, Eric.

My point is, Barry, you need to watch your mouth. Or maybe you should just hang a little closer to binky from now on.

*note to the subliterate fruitcakes at FDL: The fact that you don’t know sophisticated turnings of words like issue and obvious is not my fault. Maybe you should read books and ease up on the donkey porn.

My only criticism is that you had to cut it so short!

“We sleep soundly in our beds only because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence upon those who would do us harm Dear Leader Obama gives us leave to do so.”

Hey thanks, Crowe - it was 3am

Actually, this might be a 'good' thing.....

USNJIMRET Friday, March 20th at 7:54AM EDT (link)

Not in the sense that it can be viewed as a possible look into the mind and blood pump that is Nobama, tho surely a strong case can be made on that. (Especially when, as EPU has done, one connects the dots.)
But ‘good’ in the sense that part of the PC arsenal is defused, somewhat.
It’s going to be a little difficult for some left-tard to feign complete and total moral outrage over the next unfortunate gaff by a Republican…while defending The One.
(Which doesn’t mean they won’t try like hell anyway.)

Naaah

red4ever Friday, March 20th at 8:53AM EDT (link)

Every Bush slip of the tongue was proof that he was a complete moron. Every Obama slip of the tonue is just normal behavior for a human being — we all misspeak from time to time.

At least that is how the left will see it. They never met a double standard they didn’t love.

The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.

It also means he's done it before

momac Friday, March 20th at 10:03AM EDT (link)

As we all know, any slip of the tongue only slips because it’s something you’re accustomed to joking about. In this case I can definitely imagine he and his wife having a laugh, probably about Sarah Palin’s kid, as did most of the compassionate left this last campaign. Openly.

Another note and I know people have seen this so I didn’t discover it, but it took a 237 to win any Special Olympic gold, so Barry’s totally outclassed there. He’s a tool in any setting.

 
 
 

Mr President, meet Susan

wayneinnh Friday, March 20th at 8:38AM EDT (link)

I would like to introduce you to someone in my family who just happens to be a bowler in the Special Olympics. Her name is Susan and here is a picture of her receiving her gold medal this year. The next time you decide to leave home without your binky, maybe you should wait for your brain to engage before putting your mouth in gear.

Thoughts From a Fallen World

Jon 14:6 -
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

It’s not intellectual to believe we evolved from hydrogen gas.

Wayne - Susan is beautiful, and a special gift

Not just offensive, insulting.

Steve Summers Friday, March 20th at 8:45AM EDT (link)

I’ve known some mentally challenged people who were VERY good at sports. Obama doesn’t bowl like a special Olympian - they’re MUCH better than him. He bowls like someone with no experience bowling and no understanding of its basic principles. In other words, pretty much how he governs.

 

EPU, Thank you for putting Obama's crass Special Olympics comment on the front page

mailloux Friday, March 20th at 9:03AM EDT (link)

I am still livid about his comment for personal reasons. Obama’s “joke” infuriated me. You see, I worked with that population in my younger days . . . including helping one fellow train for the Special Olympics.

The vulgarity of Obama’s “joke” should be announced from the roof tops. It reveals much about the character of this man as you so well demonstrate in your post. This should not be forgotten.

RedState was rather therapeutic last night. Normally at 10:00pm, sleep is predominantly on my mind. But last night? I had to share the story of my old friend, the Special Olympian . . . it’s here for those interested in hearing about Eddy (http://www.redstate.com/mailloux/2009/03/19/the-audacity-of-a-dope/).

Take Care, mailloux

mailloux - Eddy is indeed twice the man Obama is

I thank you for sharing that with me (and us).

Excellent diary!!!

Thanks, EPU.

BUT I STRONGLY DISAGREE.

LET THE GAFFEISTIC BARRY BE HIMSELF….

……. .as free as a Birdie!

……. as gaffeistic as a TOTUS can be!

…. just like his VP, JOE THE DUMBER!

I hear ya Rod

E Pluribus Unum Friday, March 20th at 10:12AM EDT (link)

I can say what I say, knowing this tool ain’t going to be swayed by my advice.

And we have YET to fully exploit Joe the Dumber and his crack about employees at convenience stores needing to have a slight Indian accent. This stuff issues from the same kind of heart - elitist, smug, and uninterested in the feelings of others.

II share your prayer that one day, Barry will wake up and start listening to ALL Americans, not just to his Chicago tugs. After all, he will be our President for the next 4 years. And our safety as a people and as a country is in his hands.

And besides, that’s the real essence of “EPU”. he he he.

Thanks again, bro.

 
 
 

Contrast with Sarah Palin...

azaeroprof Friday, March 20th at 10:16AM EDT (link)

Obama, flippantly or not, goes on Leno without his binkie, and insults disabled Americans. Sarah Palin chooses to bear and raise lovingly a Down’s Syndrome baby (despite the fact that 90% of mothers abort their Down’s babies).

I would love to see the Special Olympics bowling champion challenge Obama to a bowling match at the White House (on second thought, it should happen at a neutral site. I can envision David Axelcrook hiding behind the pins sneakily knocking them over for the messiah!)

awesome mental picture! -nt

You all have seen barry before...

$peciallist Friday, March 20th at 10:31AM EDT (link)

he’s the one who’s uncomfortable around someone disabled….

he’s the one who starts talk…i…n…g s..l..o..w..

he’s the one that won’t come within 4 feet of a wheelchair..

And to everyone who says we need to stop pointing out EVERYTHING that Barry does wrong…..

WTF???

If we don’t do it…who else will??

Bring EVERY gaffe…bring EVERY misspeak…bring EVERY insult…

Make a List…….i love lists

 

Now we know why he chose Biden,

Tbone Friday, March 20th at 10:47AM EDT (link)

he thought he was articulate. Barry puts his foot in his mouth so far he leaves a footprint when he sits down.

However, what is really disturbing is how the MSM will pass this up.

Envisioning when all that is Left is the Right.

I thought the same, Tbone

Only exposing ignorance...

Barry flatters himself. He is not in the same class as Special Olympians. I had the privilege of marshalling a a Special Olympics bike race here in Connecticut (yes, I did so grudgingly, but was glad I did). Those competitors are something else. Freakin’ bring tears to my eyes. And one Special Olympian would never dump on another Special Olympian…or another person. Too much class. Seeing the support they give each other to try, is very cool. They are just freakin awesome people. And I am smiling thinking about them now.

Barry, from now on, maybe stick to the jokes TOTUS gives you. Special Olympians aren’t going to care about your apology….we are the ones who should apologize to YOU. We are sorry that your personal growth is so stunted. In fact, one could say that your growth is, well, retarded.

Hardly surprising

ciscoguy Friday, March 20th at 12:01PM EDT (link)

I’ve also done some work with the Special Olympics. This was really low for anybody, but for the President of the USA? You might expect this kind of crack from some derelict uncle or cousin, but welcome to USA 2009, where even the President is a dirt bag. Seriously, what’s the difference between what he said and saying, “I bowl like a retard”. And, where’s the media backlash? Can you imagine if President Bush said something like this?

The thing is - Bush would have never said this because whether or not you agree with his policies, he has never belittles anyone, much less disadvantaged people.

Obama will say publicly that he cares about special needs people, but who else here thinks Trig Palin would be alive if he had been conceived in Michelle Obama’s womb? Does anyone think that someone who champions the destruction of human embryos and voted multiple times against legal protections for survivors of botched abortions gives a damn about an unborn downs baby, even if it’s were his own?

We need to take down Barry the Baby Killer in 2012 and keep working to defeat this pervasive culture of death which has overrun what used to be a respectable opposition.

 

Will this cause a fissure between

Obama and the Kennedy family? After all, the Special Olympics is Eunice’s baby.

Even Arnold’s defending him:

Thanks for the link.

Arnold defended him by accusing everyone of saying dumb things. Well we’re not all the president, and I for one, don’t say dumb things about the Special Olympics. (shaking my head)

At least Tim Shriver slapped O’s hand.

You stay classy, Barry.

Regarding the “racist” ad, was it the fact that Obama’s image was contrasted with the image of a couple of white women? The old Mandingo canard. Nevermind that Obama is a happily married father. Nevermind that he is a Harvard-educated US Senator being shown in a suit & tie. Nevermind that the ad was completely void of sexual imagery. Nevermind that Paris Hilton/Britney Spears are never compared to the slavish fans. Instead, like Obama, they are objects of idiot adoration.

Sure, 90% of people fail to react to these obviously “racist” cues. No harm was done or even intended. But thank heavens the MSM calls out Republicans on this kind of thing. Now a majority of racial minorities feel victimized.

Let’s be frank: some white people voted against the black candidate for racist reasons. But I’d wager that just as many racists voted FOR Obama. There are black supremacists like Calypso Louie. More numerous are white racists who supported Obama as a means of inoculating themselves against future charges of racism.

“I voted for Obama!”

is the new

“Some of my best friends are black!”

The racists who support Obama aren’t going to give that trump card. Not over a poor taste joke about Special Olympics.
