SARAH PALIN WAS RIGHT!

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


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?

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

  4. coffeeyesplease says at 4:18 pm, January 27th, 2009

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

    Al Arabiya beans make the best coffee!

  6. 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….

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

    Needs more reference to his onion-head hat.

    coffeeyesplease: VoiceOver Man was outstanding on this. Never mind speak like a pirate day, I want speak like a voiceover man day.

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

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

    Dreamer: 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.

  14. Sassette says at 4:26 pm, January 27th, 2009

    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.

  15. SayItWithWookies says at 4:27 pm, January 27th, 2009

    Michelle Malkin, your keffiyeh is in the mail.

  16. Vanity Smurf says at 4:28 pm, January 27th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: Can I get that on a t-shirt, please.

  17. Perot le fou says at 4:33 pm, January 27th, 2009

    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.

  19. But of *course* he did!
    Santa speaks the language of *all* children!
    “A notchie watchie dotchie do.”

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

  21. President Beeblebrox says at 4:45 pm, January 27th, 2009

    Video WIN.

    Barak Hoo-SSEIN Obama is a Muslin!

  22. 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.

  23. Special Agent Jack Mehoff says at 4:58 pm, January 27th, 2009

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

  24. randomsausage says at 5:05 pm, January 27th, 2009

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

  25. rev_matt_y says at 5:05 pm, January 27th, 2009

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

  26. Special Agent Jack Mehoff: 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!

  27. Kev-O-Tron: 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.

  28. rev_matt_y: “Frankly I’m amazed that this story hasn’t dominated ALL media today.
    ”

    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,)

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

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

  31. SnarkNotFark says at 7:17 pm, January 27th, 2009

    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.”

  32. Scandalabra says at 7:24 pm, January 27th, 2009

    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.

  33. Blue Line says at 9:42 pm, January 27th, 2009

    Scandalabra: Makes perfect sense to me!
