“The man stood outside his RV, yelling and shooting a gun into the air. When Pasco sheriff’s deputies confronted him, he ran inside and wouldn’t come out … Finally, about 5 a.m., he exited his RV and was taken into custody. The cause of his displeasure, according to Doll, was Michelle Obama’s speech last night at the Democratic National Convention.” Displeasure? Maybe pleasure. We will never know. Well, we will know. For now what we know is that a man in Florida watched Michelle Obama speak at the Democratic National Convention then left his trailer, screaming like a banshee, shooting at the sky. [TampaBay.com]
It was the cocktail dress.
That cocktail dress left him wondering, too.
Maybe he doesn’t like teal.
And people wonder why she hates America.
…he overdosed on Sasha and Mali!
i’d say he was three walls short of room before michelle was even a thought in his head. good thing he’s got a gun. and a rv. imagine if he lived in a “real house” in a “real world”. the mind boggles. or is it buckles?
I am America, and I approve this message.
ah drunk crazy people with guns, the reason we need more strick gun control laws
I feel safer knowing this man can have a gun.
I remember reacting like that to one of Elizabeth Dole’s speeches.
Now *that* is how you explode Republican heads. Take notes, Hopey.
AngryBlakGuy: …i obviously meant MALIA!
And that is why I love America.
Usually, this would count as news. But c’mon…it happened in Florida.
As a resident of Florida, a.k.a. the Booby Hatch State, this is to be expected.
Isn’t that how they conduct polls in Florida? One shot for “I reacted positively to the speech.” Two shots for “I reacted negatively to the speech.” Continuous shooting for “FABULOUS cocktail dress!”
I have been to Pasco County. I wonder how this man’s behavior attracted attention. Sounds like a normal monday night in pasco to me.
I have a feeling there’ll be a lot more trailers with shotgun holes in the roof after this week is over. Oh well — into every double-wide some rain must fall.
A fan of Leslie “Dirty” Sanchez?
he was afraid that the beer distributor’s daughter will not become first lady.
Since he’s in FLA he’s doing well to not have ended up winning a Darwin award yet
If all goes according to plan, Michelle Obama will one day cause me to scream like a banshee and shoot into the air, as well. USING THE GUN IN MY PANTS.
We are going to cut FL loose when our Hopey overlords come in, right?
This is off-topic, but Hurricane Gustav is currently near Haiti and projected to make landfall on the US Gulf Coast on Monday, the opening day of the Republican convention. Oil prices have already risen on speculation of the destruction of the rigs and refineries. That should put an end to Drill Here Drill Now for the time being.
actually this could be a plot to make republitards in swing states go crazy, so they cant vote. GENIUS
4tehlulz:
That bitch Mrs. Hopey totally looks more attractive than me too!
This man’s insanity and frustration are surpassed only by the depth of his navel.
I dunno….maybe he was celebrating, south of the border style…? YEEHAW!
I see a new ‘Dancing With The Stars’ contestant.
Cogito Ergo Bibo: Isn’t that how Palestinians react to everything as well? I’m just noticing many, many similarities between honkies and crazy Mooslims lately. Opposition to abortion, tendency to beat wives senseless, economic impotence, habit of shooting into the air whenever something good/bad happens….
He thought she was Charlie Crist.
The Incomparable Tiny Valdez: I was just looking at its path. Either the Yucatan and Belize or N.O./Lake Charles are going to get slammed. Sort of Katrina/Rita redux. Not good. Cool interactive map on this link http://voices.washingtonpost.com/capitalweathergang/2008/08/gustav_could_become_a_giant.html?hpid=news-col-blogs
freppish: I missed the speech, though I envision Michelle in a teal cocktail dress and a scarecrow mask. Obviously, without the worms….
Is that photo really the guy who freaked out? or did Michael Moore lose some weight?
The Incomparable Tiny Valdez: hahahaha
Man, way to blow your load way too early. Going bat-shit crazy on the first night of the convention is kinda like throwing up in the school parking lot before the prom.
AnnieGetYourFun: Don’t forget the rampant homophobia and questionable facial hair.
If your last name is Doll, how could you not name your kid Ken.
Hmm, perhaps he didn’t agree with Michelle’s use of makeup. I’ve noticed that using too much makeup can make certain people very angry.
He was tired of clinging to his religion, thought he’d try his gun for a while.
Oh my lord. The only “hope” I’m formulating from this campaign is that all these racist mofos will be driven to shoot themselves and/or one another.
Take the train to Happy Town. Choo-choo.
Geez, that’s how I reacted, too–after I accidentally switched over to Faux Nooze after the speech. I gots to get me that parental control switch.
When they were writing the second ammendment, it probably never occurred to them that people would think it automatically included unstable whackjobs who feel the need to organize a militia against teal cocktail dresses. Maybe if we seat the Florida delegates he’ll feel more comfortable with the process.
This is why I’m voting for Obama. I just want to see millions of bitters go cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs in Nov.
obfuscator: And strange foodstuffs, fondness for public lynching….
Holy Shit! Do you realize what this means? Michele Obama is mixed up with Videodrome!
Wow, Burt Reynolds has put on weight!
Well thank goodness this happened in Florida, where no matter what his final conviction, he will still be able to vote against Obama along with his pet dog and his deceased grandmother.
lumpenprole: I fear I will have to lock myself in doors or at least never return to my homestate of texas.
Alright, which one of you wonks posted this gem:
THAT LIBERAL BROAD NEEDS TO SHUT HER TRAP. MY BOY JOE LIEBERMAN DESERVES TO BE THE VICE PREZ. HE’S A TRUE PATRIOT. HE TELLS THEM LIBERALS WHO IS BOSS — THE TRUEST AMERICAN OF THE UNITED STATES: DUBYA.
AnnieGetYourFun: If by Palestinians you mean southern Virginians, then yes. One of the fun activities on New Year’s Day around here is walking around the neighborhood visiting one’s friends and seeing how many shotgun shells you can collect on the way.
Was he exercising his rights under our fair state’s new “Bring Your Firearm to Work” law, or the slightly older “Stand Your Ground” law?
american mutt: You can come to Austin & be safe. However, I’d avoid Lubbock, Odessa & all of East Texas. They be some crazy, redneck racists around those parts (think James Byrd)….shudder
lumpenprole:
Precisely what I tell my repuke coworkers when they ask why I’m voting for him.
Beautiful. Bring it on, bitches. Show the world who WALNUTS!’s supporters are. Come on, you inbred hillbillies: show the world what the Republican base is composed of. I just love it. Bring it on. Save us advertising money by showing your true colors on your own initiative. If we get a few more of these, Barry’s ads should just point to the various news stories, mention the fact that all these losers are WALNUTS! supporters and ask “Any questions?”
Doglessliberal: had not seen path. that is bad.
WonksRunAmuck: Yeah, the comments that the “Tom the Wardog” fellow posted on that thread were quite *amusing* to read
Dear Gustav,
Please turn in to a category five and slam in to Pasco County.
Love,
NormalFolk
The Incomparable Tiny Valdez: But, but McFIVEANDAHALFYEARS says oil rigs are perfectly safe and new and shiny technology will protect us!
Gosh,
Michelle’s sisterly attribute
(especially in profile);) would make many a man do things out of the ordinary.
Some guys just react differently than others. Even Barry was “persistant” over Michelle.
Guppy06: I believe it is the more recently-enacted “no prisoners” law.
He would never be arrested in Denver.
maybe it was just a first step in some deranged form of awakening to the fact that republicans have been f’in him over for years. he understood what that woman was saying, and it made sense. then he realized she was black and all the programing of hatred that had been planted within him caused him to short circuit.
The Incomparable Tiny Valdez: Hurricane Gustav is currently near Haiti and projected to make landfall on the US Gulf Coast on Monday, the opening day of the Republican convention.
Uh oh. Has someone been praying?
Was he doing his “Fay” impression in an effort to make Florida matter?
Is that guy actually sitting on an iron penis?
asl:
no kidding!
TRUCKNUTZ - UR DOING IT RONG!
Fortunately we just got the “Take Your Guns to Work” law passed….not that this guy has a job, but, you know.
cal: Jindal has announced that he’ll pass on the convention if Gustav swings towards Louisiana…
and in other news, Bush and company have unleashed attack dog Douglas O’Dell on the New Orleans local government….apparently in an attempt to blame every one but the feds for the perceived slowness of recovery….
im no fan of much of much of the local government…but O’Dell is doing a real hatchet job for his masters…

cal: If that hurricane makes landfall in Minneapolis, even I will start attending church.
I think she was channeling the Brady Bunch at times, between the shapeshifting. No jury could convict that Florida dude.
I thought McCain was campaigning in a totally different part of the country yesterday.
Oh wait, it was a trailer, not an Estate.
Love the big nuts he is sporting.
Florida man, GONE insane? You’re saying that like anyone in that state isn’t.
come on guys …that was just another TRUCK NUTZ! set up.. really, I mean just look at those boys.
I’m shocked at myself for allowing this possibility to escape my attention. I’m literally surrounded by the same type of genetically anomalous people as the “pillar of the community” mentioned above. They shoot randomly into the night ( even on Christmas ) for no explainable reason other than to make noise. No anger involved. The violent, alcohol-induced rage that will explode when Obama is elected will snap the thin, rusty wire that keeps their tiny fraction of common sense contained and the carnage will begin. Mother Nature always had a mechanism to correct her mistakes. It will be exciting to have front row seats to the unfolding chaos from the overdue repairs. Just gotta stock up on beer.
Billary is gonna be really really angry…Florida Dude was s’posed to hook up with Colorado Meth Phreaks to do the thing on Barry. (Bill was counting on the assassination to recoup campaign loans and Hillz, well, Hillz just wants her rightful/whiteful crown.)
Look out Idaho panhandle white supremacist financiers and shadow puppeteers….the Clintons are sending their New York pinstriped mafia after your asses!
Reminds Bill of Jesse Jackson.
