Mike Barnicle says Obama can't relate to us (made up B.S.)

[Tribetime]

On m.joe this morning said that Obama wouldn't be the guy you would want to talk to while your pumping gas. You wouldn't be able to talk to him about issues........ Give me a f***en break. OBAMA IS THE ONLY ONE I WOULD EXPECT TO TALK TO ME OUT OF THE 3. Why would he be getting so many average voters to donate to his campaign if he doesn't relate to us. Does he just broadcast anything that comes into his mind as fact, because it's his personal view, or hope? Great journalism Mike

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

1. When he said "us" he meant overpaid millionaires on TV. n/t

[Triana]

2. =="I would wanna have a beer with bu$h or Hillary!" - the SAME Hillary who JUST SAID

"God Bless the Rich People. We DESERVE ALL THE OPPORTUNITIES!"

YEABOY...

Barack never said that.

I guess that just makes HIM elitist!

[PBS Poll-435]

6. Shame on You!

Read the whole quote.

[Cali_Democrat]

3. This brought to you by the corporate-media that said...

Bush is the kinda guy you can have a beer with. How did that work out? Don't pay attention to corporate-media garbage.

[LSparkle]

4. Because he's perhaps SMARTER than the average American?

WHAT THE FUCK IF WRONG WITH THE PRESIDENT BEING SMARTER THAN
AVERAGE? Do we really want Larry The Cable Guy running our
country?

This worship of the "average Joe" is making me sick! It's fine
for celebrities and singers and athletes and such but when it
comes to the PRESIDENCY and elected offices, we need to recruit
THE BEST of us! In schoolyard terms, you don't want the
cheerleaders and the jocks sitting on Student Council! WAKE
UP, SHEEPLE!

[Tribetime]

7. Not only is he smarter, he actually cares about people

[LSparkle]

26. You're right -- there are plenty of smart people with cold hearts out there

We don't need anyone like that in the Oval Office.

[panAmerican]

5. He sure didn't sound like that when he was pandering during MSNBC's "Race Conversation" @ an HBCU

[ErinBerin84]

8. Saw that too, such bullshit.

God, it was like he was describing Obama as some "icily attached" sociopath. Not the type of person who would "ask you about your problems, give you a hug." Compared to who?!! Hillary Clinton? Definitely not John McCain, is he shitting us? Also said that Tim (who he called "Timmy") is going to ask the "TOUGH questions" this Sunday and find out "EXACTLY how long Obama SAT IN THAT CHURCH FOR!" God, they treat Obama like he is one of those guys on To Catch A Predator.

[Andy823]

9. But I guess Hillary can?

God bless the rich people???????? And she can't run work a coffee machine? I would take Obama any day to have a cup of coffee with, at least he would probably know how to work the machine!!

[mitchum]

10. If Barnacle says that, someone else must have said it first

What is the nature of a plagiarist?

[Tribetime]

11. most likely Scarborough, He was quick to agree

[chascarrillo]

13. Beat me to it.

[Armstead]

12. That's utter bullshit

Obama comes across as very personable. He seems to me like the well mannered guy who would easily chat up people wnerever he went.

He does seem smart...God how awful.

Barnacle seems like a guy who would grunt if you asked him directions.

[Tribetime]

15. McCain would say "wash my windows sonny and don't leave a streak"

....and I'm 47

[Armstead]

17. Or....."Get Off My Lawn..."

Damn kids

[tokenlib]

14. His opinion isn't worth any more than ours!! He is a columnist, not a journalist! n/t

[Mz Pip]

16. He doesn't to relate to me

It's not like I expect him to be my new bff.

I want someone who is smart and intellectually engaged in his job.

[burythehatchet]

18. He's a barnicle on the ass of the HSS Clinton

[Vinca]

19. Look what 8 years of having a guy some would want to have a beer with got us.

I want a president who is so much smarter than I am, it's embarrassing. I don't care if he snubs me on the way to the wine bar, just be smarter and fix this fucking country.

[graywarrior]

20. Barnicle makes shit up, remember?

[Tribetime]

21. I need to find a job like that. I'll bet he's paid well too.

[graywarrior]

23. Amazing how you can get caught lying and still end up making a fortune blathering.

[zulchzulu]

22. In 1998, Barnicle was forced to resign from the Boston Globe for making shit up

So a pathological liar is for THE Pathological Liar... wow... what a fucking surprise.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

24. A more aptly named person I've never seen.
