Oh Boy

Man, just when Obama and Hillary are taking orbital sanders to each other, along comes some dipshit Republican congressman from Kentucky, serving up some irresistible redmeat and getting the conversation back into Obama's sweet spot:

U.S. Rep. Geoff Davis, a Hebron Republican, compared Obama and his message for change similar to a "snake oil salesman" [at a Northern Kentucky Lincoln Day dinner].

He said in his remarks at the GOP dinner that he also recently participated in a "highly classified, national security simulation" with Obama.

"I'm going to tell you something: That boy's finger does not need to be on the button," Davis said. "He could not make a decision in that simulation that related to a nuclear threat to this country."

I'll waste some time here and throw out the "it's not a racist term, but a common southern colloquialism" defense; the same could've been said about and/or by AlGore. Don't worry, it won't matter --- thanks Geoff!

So with that, let's jump into the deep end, boy, I say, boy:

I wonder if this will be above the fold news to help Barry deflect the stings he is taking.

Bet on it, eddie.

I never realized that Foghorn Leghorn was a racist that frequently interacted with a right-wing Republican who was for the war but had not served.

Prescience.

My dad used to call me "boy" all the time growing up. He still does sometimes. I'm 40 and live in the South by the way.

Oh brother.

Leave it to the libs to get in a big, frothy, spit-flecked, retard frenzy over one innocent word. Plenty of people use that word to describe grown men. You'd think a politician would know better than to use it in reference to a black man, but people sometimes slip up. Like all those Osama/Obama gaffes.

What fascinates me about the story is what he said about Obama's failure to react properly during National Security Simulation.

I'd like to hear more about that.

I love, I say I love ol' Foghorn! Leghorn that is.

[cranky]

That damn Republican from Kentucky is depreciating my bitterness assets.

[Fred]

Uhh...

Does his finger need to be on the button?

This question may be a tad more pressing than perceived racial slights.
