You can judge a man’s level of experience by how he conducts himself when the chips (or in this case, the polls) are down. Yesterday, Barack Obama was talking to a group of veterans about his war-hero opponent when he said McCain “doesn’t know what he’s up against.”
First of all, dude, know your audience. I heard the applause was quieter than what you’d hear at a golf tournament. And what the heck was that supposed to mean, anyway? Is he referring to George Sorros and Michael Moore? They haven’t been able to buy the past few elections, so what makes him think they can start now? Or was it some sort of threat, kind of like “taking a gun to a knife fight?” I don’t know about you, but to me that just doesn’t sound presidential.
Obama’s starting to sound like the spoiled kid who’s been pampered his whole life. Once he leaves his comfort zone and gets away from his doting sycophants he finds out not everybody likes him. So he starts talking trash on the playground. What nobody told him is that’s a good way to get your a$$ kicked!
You said what I was thinking…Obama with an open mic just doesn’t “sound” like the next President Of the USA…I say give the guy an open mic with lots of cameras EVERYDAY!

I hate to ask, but is this the first time you have noticed this? There have been numerous times through the primary season where Obama has sounded like a bully. I thought that when he compared Clinton to Annie Oakley before the Pennsylvania primary. This is a man with a poor sense of what is humorous, so he confuses making fun of people with funny. Obama is not ready for prime time, he may never be. The real world of politics never finds everyone telling you that you are right, at least not in a democracy. The entire campaign provided proof that they are childish when rather than really trying to find out what half of the voting democrats voted against him a choice was made to claim that they did not need those voters. Believe me, all of those voters did hear that comment, and it will return to haunt him.

I grew up in a rough neighborhood in a city. The kind of neighborhood where you learned to fight if you wanted to be on the street – - and I was on the street when I was 7. (I wasn’t that good with the fists, mind you; I had a really hard skull. Still do.) There was a street name for guys who talked like Obama – - “moron.” Meant the same on the street as it meant everywhere else. If you were on the street, you had a bunch that you ran with, and if the bunch was in a fight, you were in a fight – - all for one and one for all stuff. Musketeer ruffians. But if you went around blustering and bullying, you ended up with no friends, because no one really wants to be fighting all the time because some moron can’t help but run his mouth. Those guys ended up staying in the house.
We would have had a nickname for Barack Obama – - “Barkie.” As in, all bark and no bite. Porch dog. Porch dogs yap a lot, but the saying is, “if you can’t run with the big dogs, stay on the porch.”

Gramma – no, it’s not the first time I’ve noticed. I think he would be better off if he just stops campaigning. But Tina’s right, we should keep him mic’d 24-7!
Jay-”Barkie” – that’s a good one!

All he has to do is open his pie hole to speak, and half the idiots in his audience, including the media, are ready to start giggling like a bunch of fools. No wonder he thinks he’s the new Richard Pryor.

[...] Realizing that nuance isn’t selling, the Democrats have hopped aboard Barack Obama’s shiny new Trash Talk Express. Earlier this week Obama said about John McCain “he doesn’t know what he’s up against.” [...]
