uh… what?
hahahahahah
“In that case, pick up a medium ham.”
“But Palin won’t fit in our freezer”
*rimshot*
… ouch.
BWAHAAHAA!!!
Nice.
I actually LOL’d at the palin comment
…huh?
I get it… she called him to pick stuff up from the store ‘on his way home’ and he’s in an entirely different state, so it’s… yeah you know what… it’s not funny anymore once you have to explain it.
But I laughed, in any case.
I did too.
This belongs in the lol fail bin.
Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean the smart people won’t find it funny.
Seconded!
I got the first time and we both laughed in here. Those who didn’t laugh, obviously don’t have a significant other that you have been with a while.
Your singleness is showing n8.
true… true…
Heh, I’ve been married 8 years this month, DWN. I got that Michelle was giving him a grocery list, the humor just fell flat with me.
*snicker* Alright.
There’s no point giving that man a list, N8 still only comes home with candied ginger and mango and asks “what are we doing for dinner?”
Kee-ripes! The jig’s up!!! *runs*
I’m hurtling towards spinsterhood, and I still got it.
rofl
copter
yeahhhh….
It’s not that far away. Unless he’s in “real” Virginia, which could be a few hours.
Unless she’s in Chicago. But he’s a senator right? And running a campaign? Wouldn’t they be based in DC?
*hands imo a map*
.. and what the hell do you mean, “real” Virginia?
“Democrats have just come in from the District of Columbia and moved into Northern Virginia, and that’s really what you see there. But the rest of the state, real Virginia, if you will, I think will be very responsive to Senator McCain’s message.” -McCain’s senior adviser
Thanks for the clarification, ck.
I’m still trying to figure out why… oh… I guess imo was assuming that Michelle was in DC… GOT YA..
Wow. I fail in a most failful way.
The best part of that quote is that McCain has a condo in N. Virginia and his national campaign headquarters is based there. What a moron.
that’s not fair, we all know he has houses everywhere.
HE doesn’t.
Thanks ck.
Michelle and the kids stayed in Chicago.
My stalking skillz. Not so good akshully.
I laughed out loud. That was funny, dammit! :O
PATRIOT PERSPECTIVE
The Audacity of Deception
By Mark Alexander
If you are perplexed, even bewildered, by the number of Americans who normally make logical and rational decisions but now support Barack Obama, I refer you to a lucid explanation for this phenomenon in the opening pages of the candidate’s political autobiography, The Audacity of Hope. He writes, “I am new enough on the national political scene that I serve as a blank screen on which people of vastly different political stripes project their own views… I am bound to disappoint some… of them.”
Beyond the projection and deception, however, elections have consequences. Some of Obama’s supporters, the formerly logical and rational, will be first in the soup line of deceived disappointees expressing buyer’s remorse. They will awaken from the stupor of all the good feelings that attracted them to Obama and face the hard realities of the Socialist agenda they enabled.
In this, the final week of the ‘08 presidential campaign, Obama bought 30 minutes of prime time on several networks to air an infomercial in which he endeavored to pass as something other than the ideological Socialist he is. Feigning the fiscal conservatism of Ronald Reagan, Obama claimed he would review the budget, line by line, and cut waste. He even made taxing and spending, a.k.a. “the collectivist redistribution of wealth,” sound like a noble democratic gesture.
At one point he said, “Just because I want to spread the wealth around, they call me a socialist. The next thing you know, they will call me a communist because I shared my peanut butter sandwich in kindergarten!”
Cute. Of course, Barack Obama isn’t proposing to “share” his sandwich. Instead, he’s proposing to take your sandwich and share it with someone else. He’s assuming that you aren’t charitable enough to share it yourself.
Truth is, it is unlikely Obama ever shared a sandwich with anyone. With an average annual income of more than $500,000 between 2000 and 2006, Barack and Michelle only gave two percent—two percent—of their income to charity. Obama’s running mate is even more miserly. The Bidens’ income averaged $260,000 over the last 10 years, but they averaged just $650 a year in charitable giving.
So much for “spreading the wealth around.”
Meanwhile, Sen. John McCain centered his soapbox message on Obama’s penchant to redistribute wealth, even uttering the word “socialist” in several interviews—and not a minute too soon.
Of course, Socialist policies are now the centerpiece of the once great Democratic Party, packaged under the aegis of “fairness and equality” or “investments in our infrastructure and people.”
Obama uses code words such as “political and economic justice” and “coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change.” In the last two months, however, given the crisis of confidence in our economy, Obama’s Socialist rhetoric has become bolder. Perhaps he’s heeding the counsel of his mentors’ mentor, Karl Marx, who wrote, “A new revolution is possible only in consequence of a new crisis.”
The fingerprints of Obama’s radical Socialist mentors are all over his “vision for America” —from his early childhood tutor, Communist Party USA member Frank Marshall Davis, to his black radical spiritual advisor, Jeremiah Wright, to the benefactors who launched his political career, radical terrorists William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.
These are the Leftists who fed Obama’s unmitigated narcissism and shaped his warped worldview, which he now seeks to inflict upon the entire nation. Even his campaign icon implies “Obama over America.”
Of course, when asked about his relationship with these radicals, Obama responds, “[These people] are not advisors or donors to my campaign,” at which point an adoring press corps dutifully moves on to the next question.
Despite having spent 20 years as a disciple of Wright, the man who officiated at Obama’s marriage and baptized his children, the man whom Obama describes as “a father figure,” he claims he never inhaled any of his spiritual mentor’s racial hatred—never even heard any of it.
Obama claims that Bill Ayers was “just a guy in my neighborhood,” and “I was just eight years old when he was a terrorist.” However, Obama was 34 when Ayers used his radical celebrity to launch Obama’s political career, and he was 40 when this unrepentant terrorist was featured in a New York Times article (on the morning of September 11, 2001) and quoted in the opening paragraph proclaiming, “I don’t regret setting bombs. I feel we didn’t do enough.”
Ayers added, “America makes me want to puke.” Obama was working on his second major “philanthropic” project with Ayers at that time.
In addition, there are Obama’s ties to the Socialist New Party, the ACORN crowd, Father Michael Pfleger, Khalid al-Mansour, Kwame Kilpatrick, Louis Farrakhan, Tony Rezko, Rashid Khalidi, Raila Odinga and other haters, hard Leftists and convicted felons.
George Bernard Shaw once wrote, “A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.” All committed Socialists understand this principle.
For example, when Obama asserts, “We’ll ensure that economic justice is served—that’s what this election is about… I think when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody,” that is tantamount to buying votes.
Michelle Obama echoes her husband’s redistributionist philosophy: “The truth is, in order to get things like universal healthcare and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more.”
In 1916, a minister and outspoken advocate for liberty, William J. H. Boetcker, published a pamphlet entitled The Ten Cannots . “You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage by taking away man’s initiative and independence. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they will not do for themselves.”
A century later, Democrats are utterly ignorant of these principles. In fact, Barack Obama’s campaign is built around their antithesis—“The Ten Cans.”
I was speaking with a friend recently, a man who lived most of his life under the Communist regime in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. He has spent several years and continues to incur many legal expenses in his endeavor to become a U.S. citizen, but he has since lost his enthusiasm.
“The prospect of an Obama presidency is like dèja vu for me,” he explained. “The socialist goal back home was that everyone had equal wealth. They met that goal—eventually no one had anything. Any attempt to work harder to achieve a better standard of living for your family was considered contrary to the welfare of the state, and dutifully discouraged. Socialism is a big hole, easy to fall into and hard to climb out of.”
He lamented, “The American dream is not something I want to wake up from—but too many Americans have no idea what they have, and are about to lose it. Socialism seems an appealing ideal, collective ownership, equal society, ‘sharing the wealth,’ et cetera. But it has a downside: It doesn’t work.”
Indeed it doesn’t work. It creates wards of the state—slaves, if you will.
In the 1980s, I spent enough time in Socialist countries, including the old USSR, to know that we want to avoid, at all costs, a USSA. If we could gather up all Americans who, knowingly or unknowingly, support collectivist policies like those espoused by Barack Obama and transport them to the old USSR for a week, they could see the terminus of such policies—the walking dead—and the wisest among them would rethink their support for statist concepts such as “sharing the wealth.”
It is no small irony that as the younger generations of former Communist countries around the world are moving rapidly toward liberty and free enterprise, our nation is moving rapidly toward Socialism and a tyranny of the few.
Barack Obama recently said, “I don’t find myself particularly scary or particularly risky.” It was a weak attempt at self-effacing humor, but make no mistake: Barack Hussein Obama’s Socialist policies are both scary and risky.
“Hope” and “change” may be pleasant catchall bromides, but as Benjamin Franklin wrote in Poor Richard’s Almanac, “He that lives upon Hope will die fasting.”
On change, John Adams wrote, “A Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.”
To that end, in 1787, the year our Constitution was adopted, Thomas Jefferson, wrote, “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”
Let’s not go there—yet.
tl;dr
lol beat me to it.
Thank God for the scroll wheel!
LOL Eddie.
Here, let me sum it up:
“WHARRGARBL!!”
Is there anyway you could have condensed that or possibly linked it to your name? My attention span does not include long postings on PK that don’t seem to make a point.
How’d this get past the filter?
What the hell is this? And what does it have to do with picking up groceries? I’m just going to assume it’s some stupid attack on Obama that ohno didn’t even bother to read, and therefore couldn’t just come out and say anything “intelligent”
…like “Hey everybody, Obama’s a Muslim, and he sucks, and the world is going to end when he gets elected, and and and WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Odd… PK cut off the intro to “The List”….
I think….
PK just failed The Failcop….
If it was in between brackets like this: <, >. Then it would have.
‘kay, I guess I’m just too old. What means TL:DR?
Too Long; Didnt Read
Ahhh the peace of the minds too simple to think something different from the concept into they was indoctrinated…sometimes I envy their astounding unshakable faith…yeah, faith is the right word because only this could explain such blind words.
By the way is not a complete fail for the guys who wrote it. It’s education fail.
Or worse the author knows that this is bullshit but still write because it’s downright evil and this propaganda is functional to his cause.
I hope that the submitter done this as a mockery of the original intent or to expose it to shame…but i fear that’s not this case.
It’s amazing how after all this years the word “communism” (and it’s associated “socialism”) spread fear into ignorant masses of USA.
Pavlovian conditioning communism=stalin&gulag?
As a foreigner i cannot be more astonished and by some means sad for this waste of brain. Obviously Obama is a rich bastard, who people think can reach so high? But after all a mean bastard is still better than an old creepy warmongering meaner conservative bastard.
But in the end whathever side win Usa are stil lucky…they don’t got Berlusconi.
)
Goddamn he both raise taxes and cut budget at the public services beyond every reasonable measure, still leaving in place parasites and lakey.
It’ll can make someone desire Mc Cain instead. Or Putin. (Uhm mentioning him late night could cost me nightmares…he scares me…
Wow. Just…. wow.
A News & Politics LOL that’s actually somewhat kinda-sorta negative about Barry O.
Of course, it’s not negative towards Him (or his policies, statements, views, etc.) directly as that would be in violation of the Annointed One Love-Fest Policies & Procedures (Chris Matthews, Editor). But still, I’m glad I caught the Halley’s-Comet-rare zing(ish) aimed at a lib.
Negative? Ok, I missed that part. I got the funny, but where’s the negative?
Hence my qualifiers (“somewhat” and “kinda-sorta”).
Whatever negativity is there is directed at Mrs. Her Holiness, the implication being that she’s so:
* domineering that she can’t resist making hubby bring home groceries despite his being 1) a leading presidential candidate and 2) in another state.
or
* stupid that she doesn’t REMEMBER that hubby is (1) and (2).
Anyway, I’ll check back in about 6 months, which is about the time a new lib-bashing () LOL will be posted and manage to scrape together enough votes to get “published”.
LOL!! True enough.. meanwhile those of us left will try and keep the Libs honest.
I don’t see it like that at all. It’s very much in the normal “married people do certain things” that single people don’t “have to do” (actually “get to do” from my POV) vein of humor. I’m definitely a lib, BTW. Early voted for Obama, along with the rest of the family.
I was waiting for the “stick of butter” though…..
.. that makes two of us..
… I remembered, I remembered!!
Wow. Just…. wow.

Apparently doctors can know replace a portion of your lower abdomen with a block of Plexiglass; this way you can actually see the outside world.
This isn’t a jab at Obama, asshat; it’s a cheeky joke about getting a call for groceries and those wonderful little moments where the spouses don’t seem to be on the same page.
“Every man holds his property subject to the general right ofthe community to regulate its use to whatever degree the public welfare may require it.”
Who said this? Carl Marx? Vladimir Lenin? Barak Obama?
No. Teddy Roosevelt. Who was, you may recall, a Republican.
Here’s another quote for you:
“It is not very unreasonable that the rich should contribute to the public expense, not only in proportion to their revenue, but something more in that proportion.”
Again, was this said by a socialist or a communist? No; it is from Adam Smith.
Adam Smith the philosopher, Adam Smith the congressman or Adam Smith the teenage hate crime perpetrator?
Um… funny fail.
The sign to the right of him is funnier in my opinion.
My name is MrJodie and I approve this message… because I made it.
I sure didn’t expect the outlandish repartee that it seems to have sparked. For those willing to listen, this wasn’t meant to be negative, in any respect.
As a forty year old husband and father I was merely poking at the irony that two years on the campaign trail has to have created in Sen. Obama’s life. It’s folly to think that “picking up groceries” would even be a theme in a conversation with his wife, at this point in time. Ironically enough, I’m sure they’ve got staff for that sort of thing, as well. However, I also know that Sen. Obama calls home EVERY SINGLE DAY to spend time talking to his kids. With all of the jumping around that he’s done, recently, and the number of states he’s had to hit in his battleground campaign it juts seemed silly not to wonder if Michelle is able to keep track of it all.
Liberative, conservital, republicrat, demican… whatever. It’s not about parties and policies any more. The lines have blurred. Pick the person you believe most in. Support the policies you believe the most in. Vote your heart… BUT GET OUT AND VOTE!!!
Let’s try to keep laughing and smiling, people. Sadness is too contagious.
I agree for the most part (as a 51-year-old husband/father).
The original intent of my reply was to point out the nearly total hijacking of PunditKitchen by “the left” or “libs” or whatever by illuminating this LOL as an exceedingly rare thing: An LOL with some “negativism” towards Saint Barack. Some (eddiepscetti, CarmenT) questioned whether or not there really was ANY negativism towards Him, which prompted my 2nd reply clarifying that, well…. not “negative” as such… and certainly not aimed at The Savior directly.
Interestingly, the degree of negativity towards Him is immaterial to my central point:
* If the prevailing thought was that there was a LOT of negativity, that would make this LOL stand out like a forehead zit.
* If CW says there’s NO negativity, then the purity of the site’s anti-right (or at least never-anti-left) standing is unblemished.
This reminds me of my husband. I’ll be getting off at work at 10:00pm and he’ll call to either A.) tell me to pick up milk, or B.) ask what’s for dinner. Ane he’s been home since 6
A real catch, I know
Pretty sure this is actually in Pittsburgh, PA. The neighborhoods of Hilltop and Southside are very visible but also generic, but if you look in the bottom left quadrant, I think it says West PGH. Anyone else notice this?
Still funny though…
it is! that’s the South Side office in Pittsburgh
While it’s not really the funny part of the picture, I love the fact that there’s a McCain sign right by him.
Um.
I think that’s a pro-Obama slap at Bush and, by extension, McCain.
He’s actually in Pittsburgh, reading the names of the neighborhoods behind him. “Crafton” “Carrick” “South Side” “Ingram”
That’s Pittsburgh
Which one of the 57 states is Virginia?
*feeds CGS a cracker, ruffles its feathers*
Snopes.com explains/debunks this and many other Obama myths.
See, it’s possible for a picture to include a political candidate but not be a political picture. Yay!
A macro that sort of falls on the “aww, how cute” side of amusing.
I like the irony of yellow sign. From 2001 to 2008 there was steady economic growth across the board, and there was only one very short and shallow recession under Bush, which came right after 9/11. Even the current crisis hasn’t gone long enough to be deemed a recession by the standard definition of 2 consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth.
