Obama Keeps Child Slaves In Fancy Illegal House

by Jim Newell  3:53 pm July 7, 2008

The front page of GOP.com — one of America’s top sources of humor — uses this graphic to represent “Obama’s Glass Houses.” It links to a scandalous item about how Obama locked into a modestly below-average mortgage rate because he had good credit. Oh no that is terrible oh no. We’re mostly interested in the “glass house” illustration in this graphic, however. Is that what a Liberal’s illegally-financed home looks like? All clear-like with fancy angles and such? Indeed, most Liberals live in subprime replicas of Dulles airport. [GOP.com]

A boon for all the peeping toms in the ‘hood.

Oh. My. God. A lawyer negotiated a good deal for himself. Call. The. Fucking. Press. NOW!

I would rather be in a glass house then a house of boy-child prostitution.

It is totally statistically impossible for Obama to have received a modestly below-average mortgage rate, because the word “average” means everyone everywhere has the exact same rate to the penny, right?

Glass house = Green house = MARIHUANA!

ps – one has to admire Barry’s stubborn handsomeness, even in RNC attack-ad photographs.

Video of Eero Saarinen shouting “God damn Frank Lloyd Wright” appearing in five… four… three…

…And is that a feeble attempt to match Obama’s Gotham font?

NotUrEvryDayWEzl July 7, 2008 at 4:04 pm

I just threw up a bit in my mouth just thinking about Dulles airport.

I’ve been saying for the past four months that McCain really ought to find an issue to campaign on if he plans on winning this thing. Making his entire campaign revolve solely on a single issue – his opponent – makes him look like he’s got fuck-all else to talk about.

Which has the distinction of being true, but it ain’t no way to run a railroad, let alone win an election.

Jeebus on a crossbow, Juan, foment for the new Crusades or summut, but don’t just keep droning on about Hopey. You’re only giving him free advertising and making yourself look like a frightened pussy.

Which also has the distinction of being true, but….

Arugula-eating elitsts are always trying to foist their Dadaist/brutalist architecture on our nice, family-friendly suburbs. Why can’t you people buy garish neo-classical Disney Castles like the rest of us?

Maybe President Obama can use his financial finesse when dealing with America’s Chinese lenders.

pat robertson' July 7, 2008 at 4:08 pm

meh. that’s nothing. just wait for my diorama in honor of republican heroes: the minneapolis-st. paul international airport (complete with cruisy toilets, the 426 adopted children of michelle bachmann, and other things you might expect for the gateway to the mall of america).

So, basically, anything inspired by Mies van de Rohe is unpatriotic and unAmerican now? Well, they can have my Barcelona chair when they pry my cold, dead ass off it.

“A Product Of The RNC Research Department”

That’s some fine work there, Lou.

Four out of the five rotating topics on McCain’s website are about Obama.

Somebody’s a little obsessed!

cal July 7, 2008 at 4:14 pm

Oh, and my favorite is the one with the Iraq playing card stuck to Obama’s forehead.

WTF?!?! Are these Republicans five years old?

Tawmn July 7, 2008 at 4:16 pm

People involved in the Glendale Savings and Loan scandal shouldn’t throw rocks… s’all I’m sayin is all.

AxmxZ July 7, 2008 at 4:21 pm

[re=30617]SayItWithWookies[/re]: WIN.

obfuscator July 7, 2008 at 4:26 pm

I’m sure Barry’s using that .0315% worth of savings to fund an abortion parlor/gay marriage chapel.

Uncle Al July 7, 2008 at 4:35 pm

And[re=30633]Tawmn[/re]: And guys who marry rich trollops who just pay cash for their houses shouldn’t bitch about other guys getting ANY kind of mortgage….

shortsshortsshorts July 7, 2008 at 4:43 pm

[re=30633]Tawmn[/re]: Only great, under the table deals.

loquaciousmusic July 7, 2008 at 4:47 pm

Cool! Obama lives in the house from North by Northwest. Is that so he can get a headstart carving his likeness into Mt. Rushmore?

tunamelt July 7, 2008 at 4:58 pm

People in glass houses should not walk around naked.

Scarab July 7, 2008 at 5:01 pm

I’m confused, which one of Obama’s seven homes is this one?

toastandlove July 7, 2008 at 5:09 pm

That glass house clip-art is awesome. It has a flight of stairs going to a nonexistent second floor, and it reflects itself. It was designed by famous Elitist MC Escher, who was an artist and mathematician, neither of which are professions for Hard Working Americans.

Rev. Peter Lemonjello July 7, 2008 at 5:15 pm

But does the house face the East?

la nueva chica bond July 7, 2008 at 5:27 pm

Wow. The Northern Trust is the MOST conservative bank in Chicago. Probably gives $71,000 everyday to the Repubs. Don’t they handle George’s money?

Tawmn July 7, 2008 at 5:42 pm

[re=30687]tunamelt[/re]: Okay. Sorry ’bout that.

TGY July 7, 2008 at 5:43 pm

[re=30687]tunamelt[/re]: Depends on their anatomy or configuration thereof.

snig July 7, 2008 at 5:46 pm

Future scandals include him not paying a lot for his muffler, suspiciously generous portions of curly fries at Jack in the Box, Free Fixin’s at Roy Rogers and Northern Trust disclosing they gave him a toaster to open a passbook account.

shortsshortsshorts July 7, 2008 at 5:52 pm

Don’t throw teenage pages from glass houses.

snig July 7, 2008 at 5:53 pm

He should have negotiated a subprime loan like Rep. Richardson who almost lost her home. Fucking elitist bastard, actually reading the fine print and negotiating a loan he could afford.

uncletravelingmatt July 7, 2008 at 6:44 pm

[re=30743]snig[/re]: Thanks for the muffler bit.

populucious July 7, 2008 at 6:56 pm

Good credit scores are un-American, dag nabbit! It means you are not overextending yourself buying crap you don’t need in order to fight terror. Why does Barak Obama support terror with his conservative use of credit cards?

Lascauxcaveman July 7, 2008 at 6:58 pm

Wait, I call bullshit. Black people get mortgages? I always thought they rented.

obfuscator July 7, 2008 at 10:29 pm

He would have seemed so much more ‘Merican if he’d signed for an ARM starting out at 5.7%, then defaulting after it went up to 17.9% in 24 months.

AxmxZ July 7, 2008 at 10:33 pm

[re=30687]tunamelt[/re]: Unless they are Obamas.

People who live in a series of glass luxury condo type houses, stretched coast to coast, and including an Arizona desert version of the Neverland ranch, should not throw stones.
