Obama: Fox News is killing me in KY
When he’s not whining like a female dog about his old lady’s moonbattery being examined, Barry O likes to spend his spare time blaming his electile dysfunction on that scourge of liberal existence, Fox News. From McClatchy:
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, facing a likely defeat in next Tuesday’s primary election, won’t travel to Kentucky before the voting, but said he hopes to have much more time to win over Kentucky voters before the November general election.
He also blamed Fox News for disseminating “rumors” about him and said that that and e-mails filled with misinformation that have been “systematically” dispersed have hurt him in Kentucky.
…
“What it says is that I’m not very well known in that part of the country,” Obama said. “Sen. Clinton, I think, is much better known — not only because of her time in the White House with her husband — but also coming from a nearby state of Arkansas.”
…
“Part of it is because there have been these e-mails that have been sent out very systematically, presumably by various political opponents, although I don’t know who,” he said. “And there are a lot of voters who get their news from Fox News. Fox has been pumping up rumors about my religious beliefs or my patriotism or what have you since the beginning of the campaign.” …
A ”nearby state of Arkansas”? I don’t know how to break this to you, Magellan, but Illinois is a helluva lot closer to KY than AR is. I now understand why he mentioned 57 states: his knowledge of American geography sucks!
What a puss! Could he be losing in KY because they DO know about him and don’t like him much? Why, no…it MUST be that bogeyman of Rupert Murdoch’s that is brainwashing the rubes of Kentucky! There’s no other explanation as to why ANYONE would reject the Obamessiah!

Geez, Hussein whines more than my 4 year old Goddaughter.
Is this REALLY who people want running the country while we’re at war?
I shudder to think what our future will be if that horrific event should happen.

Poor Barry – not getting a fair shake from the press.
I find a recurring theme with nearly all of his recent statements: I have to double check and make sure his statements are real versus parody. “He couldn’t possibly be saying that!”
Oh yeah – he went there.

He’s had a standing invitation from BillO to appear on his show, both Hillary and McCain did and were both treated very well and got to make they’re points. BO would rather sit and cry like a little kid. Well, he really is just a little kid.

KG I’m afraid that most democrats don’t acknowledge that we’re at war. They think that Bush was the cause of 911 and when he’s gone there will never be cause to worry about terrorists again.

Obama should sit on it and twirl.
He’s supposed to be running for the position as the leader of the free world and he’s crying over a News broadcast.
What a crybaby Bush endured worse and he hasn’t broken down and boo hooed about like Obama.
Gee Obama put cork in it already!

Being from KY, I can actually say he lost because people here would rather have a woman than a black man, though given other options at this point they would have chosen someone else. Trust me… a lot of us here are racist. Not proud of it, but it’s the truth.
But I do hate Fox News.
