OMG Obama Was On Arab TeeVee With Arabs (Muslin?)

by Ken Layne  4:08 pm January 27, 2009


Hey, your new president gave his first presidential interview to a teevee channel … THE AL ARABIYA network, in DUBAI, or at least the network’s studio in Washington. ZOMG they are already here! [IHT]

Sarah Palin was right

There’s a sentence you don’t hear very often.

Obama Akbar?

Ok, which one of you made this video? C’mon out and get your standing ovation. This is fucking priceless.

U gotta love the voice over.
“Barack Hussein Obama, in his new movie the ‘Rise of Allah’”.

Al Arabiya beans make the best coffee!

Ken, I was freaking out about this last night while both you and Newell were busy with Kristol the human inaccuracy. I was busy today so I am not current of the wingnut reaction – I am hoping the heads of the usual suspects are exploding right about now.

That VO makes me miss Don LaFontaine….

Dreamer January 27, 2009 at 4:22 pm

“Prettysuni shiats will be out of luck” – priceless. Who is the genius who made this video.

Needs more reference to his onion-head hat.

[re=229851]coffeeyesplease[/re]: VoiceOver Man was outstanding on this. Never mind speak like a pirate day, I want speak like a voiceover man day.

If Obama had traveled to Dubai for the interview, he would have been snowed in (no really, it snowed in Dubai!).

BillyClubb January 27, 2009 at 4:25 pm

This is a first — I’ve been Palin-rolled.

Kev-O-Tron January 27, 2009 at 4:25 pm

[re=229853]Dreamer[/re]: What’s really freaking them out is that more Republican senators wanted to pose for pictures with him than question him about the stimulus package. 4 realz. This first week has been great just for the schadenfreude.

That’s hilarious until your brain gets to that place where it realizes that some people actually think this would make a good campaign commercial. Then it becomes sort of tragic.

SayItWithWookies January 27, 2009 at 4:27 pm

Michelle Malkin, your keffiyeh is in the mail.

Vanity Smurf January 27, 2009 at 4:28 pm

[re=229843]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Can I get that on a t-shirt, please.

Perot le fou January 27, 2009 at 4:33 pm

This is as good a place as any to point out that Obama put an Arab in charge of the Transportation Department. He really did. That’s hellarious.

But of *course* he did!

Why did it also ask if wanted to see some PUMA video afterward?

President Beeblebrox January 27, 2009 at 4:45 pm

Video WIN.

Barak Hoo-SSEIN Obama is a Muslin!

irativ January 27, 2009 at 4:50 pm

Hmm…when I was reading the story above and glanced at this one (sadly there is not a Gmail-notifier-like thing that will flash my screen or something when Wonkette is updated) the video still looked like Santa Claus. Can you get any more American than Santa Claus (except perhaps Jesus)?

Maybe not so half-breed muslin after all? Probably, though Santa is pretty close to Satan.

Special Agent Jack Mehoff January 27, 2009 at 4:58 pm

Oh that Obama. He is absolutly HORRIBLE at this Middle East intimidation game. He didn’t do ANYTHING to make them mad at us!

that’s one muslin who is using his madrasa education to maximum benefit

rev_matt_y January 27, 2009 at 5:05 pm

Frankly I’m amazed that this story hasn’t dominated ALL media today.

Maus January 27, 2009 at 5:08 pm

[re=229900]Special Agent Jack Mehoff[/re]: WHY DO WE WANT THEIR RESPECT?!

Bonus points for all of the commenters in articles about his speech with CRUSADER in their username crying about how we’re treating “those people” like humans instead of “barbarics” and that Obama may not have 100% unadulterated support for Israel.

They get my hopes up way too much!

Dreamer January 27, 2009 at 5:09 pm

[re=229865]Kev-O-Tron[/re]: I bet their kids would have been dissapointed if they didn’t. If Hopey turns republican’s kids into libtards then we win – by we I mean muslins.

Did another pretty white teenager get kidnapped? Is there another dead baby for Nancy Grace to jill herself to? (It is the only way she can climax in this world,)

Bruno January 27, 2009 at 5:31 pm

I just hope that video only fools a maximum of 49.999% of the electoral votes

Min January 27, 2009 at 6:33 pm

I keep waiting for him to do something muslin-y.

SnarkNotFark January 27, 2009 at 7:17 pm

It’s like Obama is saying to Sean Hannity and Michael Savage, “Here kids, you play with these shiny new Matchbox cars. Mommy and Daddy have a country to fix.”

Scandalabra January 27, 2009 at 7:24 pm

Maybe if he can make all the Republican heads explode in his first two weeks in office, he can get on to the business of fixing this mess(es). That may be the strategy.

Blue Line January 27, 2009 at 9:42 pm

[re=230058]Scandalabra[/re]: Makes perfect sense to me!
