Wonkette
The usual illiterate wingnuts were very upset to learn that Muslim-communist booksellers Barnes & Noble were craftily using a product search engine to convince illiterate wingnuts that their “God” was actually Barack Obama, the messiah. Wait, what?
Somebody was searching the Barnes & Noble website for a book about God that they read “in college” (right) and, uh, just wanted to make sure was still available through a second-tier online bookstore, because, well, not much else to do. AND GUESS WHAT? The second search result for “My Biography, by God” was that Kenyan racist Barack Obama’s book about how he’s God, the end.
Ha ha, that’s not “the end” at all. What, you think these dimwit web goons would ever actually just let something go? Of course not. They began writing “emails” and complaining on their “blogs” and pretty soon they will boycott Dunkin’ Donuts. They are like retarded people who keep hitting the same button.
The Audacity of Barnes & Noble: Search for ‘God’ Yields Obama Book [NewsBusters]
Wing nuts read?
Barry is going to have to work harder on concealing his true nature. No more cursing fig trees and Hillary supporters into barrenness.
The comments aren’t NEARLY as bad as the AOL comments, but still, you know…
and that comment about wanting liberals to get AIDS is a bit over the top for “NewsFuckers.” I want that person on Wonkette.
Angered and confused is the perfect description for these people under ANY circumstances…
“Note: The quotation marks placed around ‘God’ in the headline are for the purpose of indicating the search term, not as scare quotes.”
Best caveat EVAR.
Newsbusters is so much fun, what with all their outrage over Obama being portrayed as Jesus. Personally, I think it’s just feeding into the meme that Obama’s the antichrist.

Yes, Barry is your God, wingnuts. And he’s an angry, jealous, and vengeful God - all Old Testament and stuff. So lock yourselves in your homes and cease making any kind of public noise for fear of his divine wrath for, oh, fifty or so years. That should do it.
…I think someone needs a good smiting!!!
Oh, whatevs.
Never got to read the whole article thing, this ad kinda threw me off, what with the guns, and the hot teenage neocon. mmmmmm… pistols…

Christ only knows what that link is gonna look like on the other side.
5) Acceptance
Carrie_Okie: 6.) ????????
7.) Profit!
This explains why that painting of Michelle Obama on the underpass is crying tears of blood.
Oh, my god. I have figured out the link between Obama and God. It has to do with “The Gods Must be Crazy”. The star of that movie, and a certain presidential hopeful, bear a pretty striking resemblance. I’m just say’n.
I also like that guy who explains exactly how this would happen technically without a Liberal Conspiracy gets one response, someone who doubts it’s just coincidence because…well, it’s just fishy! That is some superior right-wing skill with logic.
Iggy Plop: Just remember, put blue paint on your door jan 21, 2009 and Jehobamah will pass by your house like a thief in the night, ignoring you, for you have hope.
Remember, the only unforgivable sin is despair!
Lazy Media: He doesn’t want to risk being mistaken for a rational, non-superstitious adult.
shortsshortsshorts: Where’s the step with the underpants? No self-repecting wingnut would skip out on collecting little boys’ underpants.
Correction: Barry is the Son of God, not actually God.
They are like retarded people who keep hitting the same button.
Um, whadda ya mean, “like”?
Those “newbusters” guys are a well-known cabal of MORANS!!
Naturally I went straight to BN.com and searched for ‘My Biography, by God’. Good lord!
#1: Stolen Innocence : My Story of Growing up in a Polygamous Sect, Becoming a Teenage Bride, and Breaking Free of Warren Jeffs
#2: Save Me from Myself : How I Found God, Kicked Drugs, Quit Korn, and Lived to Tell My Story by Brian “Head” Welch.
Plenty of good, uplifting reading there, but Hopey’s nowhere on the list.
Carrie_Okie: Ah shit. You’re using my Avatar. I guess it wasn’t that clever after all…
Actually those aren’t the search results that I get. Maybe Barnes & Noble is messing with New York (where Mark Finkelstein and Hillary Clinton both live).
Bman IS the Mocha Messiah and will leadeth us to cooperation, interaction, and the pursuit of complextion perfection!
ManchuCandidate: Exactly. It’s not like Barnes and Noble would be advertising to get business from this douchebag. Can you imagine the fear in the hearts of Barnes and Noble at the thought of losing wingnut customers? The losses could be in the 10s of dollars.
Search for “God: a biography”
God > “The Gods Must be Crazy” > Obama definitely IS crazy > Obama looks like the star of “The Gods Must be Crazy” >
Obama=God
This comment just floored me, and killed any snarky little comment I was going to drop here. I am so sorry.
“… Shane was reluctant to accuse Barnes & Noble of bias, but I’m not. First, the book industry is notorious for its liberal leanings. …”
treason. high treason. but you won’t hear those liberal traitors saying that. oh no. it’s “’search engine’ this” and “’search engine’ that”. Well if these so-called “search engines” were behind it, wouldn’t this have just as easily shown Ann Coulter’s latest? Ha! they can’t answer it because their “search engine” excuse is so easily shown to be a mockery of a sham.
God or Anti-Christ?
Only wing-nuts know for sure!
//cue “Tubular Bells”
ms_mcgee: I’m a bit shaky on Christian theology, but aren’t those two supposed to be consubstantial?
If God wrote a biography, I bet it would be one of those waaaay overdone “memoir” thingies, like A Million Little Pieces, wherein He comes off all larger than life and all these totally unremarkable, yet still highly dubious things happen to Him…like the Bible, but non-fiction, of course.
wow, those comments in newsbusters are totally fucking nuts. and they’re not even trying to be funny.
the right wing has totally been taken over by paranoid freaks who seriously believe that bardes and noble would change their search engine algorithm to push some liberal agenda by having obama’s book come up when people search for god’s autobiography.
In Barry’s book about being God, is Richardson still Judas? And is Carville still Pontius Pilate?
Or is he not really Jehovah/Yahweh but some kinda secret Allah instead?
What’s really weird is that God: A Biography isn’t really a Christian book.
Books have been ruining the Conservative Agenda since that damned Enlightenment screwed everything up.
Hominidx:
well i think christ is god’s son, not god’s savior.
metropolitan: Barnes & Noble, nothing. Just wait and hear the howls when they discover that “Truth has a liberal bias.”
Sounds like it’s time for a good old-fashioned book burning.
AxmxZ: Unfortunately all the boy-undies ended up in the Straight Talk Express… somehow.
Shorter right wingers:
“Bring us Barabbas!”
Actually, if a left wing loon like myself were to get hold of the millions of books under B&N’s control, I would instead devote my staff to go through all the books looking for photos of Bush, to black out every other tooth. I would also have my staff cross out the name “Gingrich” and write “Weenie”. And finally, go through the Bill O’Reilly book of the week collection, to have someone forge Bill’s handwriting on the inside jacket saying “To Andrea: All my Love, Hugs, Kisses, Obscene Phone Calls and Falafel/Loofah Reach Arounds.”
Obama’s book was in the top 10 biographies when they did this, which is obviously why it was so highly placed. I wonder what there reaction would have been if the new David Sedaris book had been classified as a biography.
metropolitan:
Paranoid? Spoken like a person who refuses to identify his countertops and probably has paisley in his closet.
Newsbusters is about as credible as the late Weekly World News.
Actually, probably less credible.
The Riggio brothers (especially Lenny) are quite liberal but they also like to get things done. Lenny decided to help rebuild New Orleans so instead of doing something to promote his career–he is really rich so he doesn’t really have a career anyway–he just came up with ten million bucks and built a neighborhood. Turned out so well that he decided to do another ten million.
Clearly a public danger.
In 2004 the B&N message board on Yahoo was full of accusations of left wingery about placement of books in the stores.
Mark Finkelstein, Newsbuster and Scourge of the Liberal Media, has some kick ass ear action going there.
Since when do Bitters go to Barnes & Noble? Besides to run in and use the bathroom if the bowling alley’s toilet is clogged?
I love the bit about how Rush Limbaugh plays golf and has run-ins with the B&N folks, who are “a bunch of huge, left-wing leftists.” Man, that dude knows everyone!
An Al-Gore-rythum. What in dagnation is that? It sounds pink-communist-liberal. Or the work of the devil, like playing an will.i.am backwards.
this is hilarious “Shane was reluctant to accuse Barnes & Noble of bias, but I’m not. First, the book industry is notorious for its liberal leanings.”
wow, we own the press, racheal ray’s face, the internet, hollywood, dunkin’ donuts, racheal ray’s face, and now the book industry?
