I recently spent some time with a friend who used to live in my neighborhood but moved about 250 miles away.
The guy makes from what I’m led to believe about 800K per year. I don’t know about you but from my perspective that is some serious shekelim.
He was amazed by the fact that I had no intention of voting for Obama. I was amazed by the fact that he intended to do so. He said that I probably thought Obama was a Mooooslim.
I asked him the following question. If someone were running for president and his name was Baruch Moshe Olinsky, and he said he was not a Jew but a Christian, who the fuck would believe him?
Any Jew with that name who converts to Christianity would change his name to Barry Michael O’Leary to sever his ties to his former self. Don’t all Muslim converts take an Arabic or Muslim name?
Are we to believe that Obama becomes a Christian but is entitled to keep his Arabic name out of “ethnic pride”?
That is bullshit of the highest magnitude.
When I asked my friend what was so great about Obama, his reply was, “Obama rocks.”
I told him he was a fucking moron, and maybe if I made his money I wouldn’t mind paying more in taxes, so people on the dole could have a more lavish lifestyle than I can afford.
My dear friend is just another douche bag who will vote for Obama because he thinks it’s the cool thing to do.
God help us all.
Your simple question raises a profound point, and as far as I know, no one has asked it before. Good one LOB.
Don’t expect John(Lebowitz)Stewart to make a joke about Obama’s name not sounding Christian.
Part of the answer comes form belonging to an Afro-centric Church. In that sphere, Swahili or Muslim names are better than “slave” names.
I have wondered about when he chose to call himself Barack instead of Barry. Was it around the same time he traveled to Pakistan with his two friends from there?
I hope your friend doesn’t see this post. It can be handy to have rich friends.
LoB is exactly right.
The only way Obama will win is the douche bags who will vote for him because they think it’s the cool thing to do.
Same thing happened with Johnson and Carter, our number two and number one worst presidents ever, respectively.
If Obama wins, he’ll be in the top three worst presidents ever. Mark my words.
I like this post and sent a link to my mother. She rejected it because of the bad language. I thought Bill Maher swears (she swears by him) but apparently not as much as we do.
What the fuck are you gonna to do!?
I’m gonna wash my mouth with soap.
And then lick your mother’s asshole.
