Flippin' the Bird?

Did Barack Obama flash Hillary Clinton the one fingered salute? Look at the video, right at 21 seconds. I think he might have. I'm still really not sure, but the reaction seems to be sure of it. I just love how those two are doing all the dirty work for us now, and destroying each other. Come fall, McCain will be so far ahead in credibility.

That's lame, Tyler. I don't really see this as relevant, except for proving that you have nothing better to do then try to make Democrats look bad...and you're kinda of grasping wildly to do so. Oh well.

What? Did you read what I wrote? I said I love the fact they are destroying each other. I'm not sure how i am trying to make them look bad, nor am I sure what you think I am grasping at. I even said I am not sure he did it intentionally or not. I watche dthe video about 5 or 6 times, and I'm not sure about his intention. I did say the audience interpreted it as intentional.

Amelia said...

Why post about it if you can't be sure if it's intentional or not? That's not really news, or anything important. Sounds to me like you're just looking to publicize the democrats "destroying each other." Which is lame.

Actually, if this is happening, which I'm pretty sure he did flip her off - you have to consider this: do you want someone who will flip off someone they disagree with while on television as the leader of your country?

The fact of the matter is that it is an uncertainty. It's not like he came out and said, "Fuck you, Hillary!" That would be different. We can't over-analyze every little thing, hoping to find something to fault people on. The only time I make remarks about politicians is when they come out and say something that I find offensive because politicians need to be held accountable for the things that they say and do outright...not the gestures that we are "pretty sure" they made.

It's sort of ironic that you're stirring up controversy about a clip of Obama talking about he doesn't care that Clinton is stirring up controversy. This is so meta.

The fact that this what actually flies for political coverage blows. Let's raise the level of debate, ok?
