waffle.jpgFrom WaPo:

“At a diner in Scranton, Obama sat down at the counter to enjoy a waffle breakfast with Senator Bob Casey . . . Which is when one of the network reporters took the advantage of the close proximity to ask a question about Jimmy Carter meeting with Hamas and Obama irritably answered: ‘Why can’t I just eat my waffle?’

    “How dare you disturb me while I am having my waffles?”
    All I can see is his arrogance.

    This is just more evidence pointing out a trend that Obama can’t answer questions asked of him when he is unprepared. Unless he has a script that he has memorized to give a speach from then he can’t answer questions. Too bad his buddy Senator Casey didn’t bail him out.

    I don’t see what the big deal is. What is so arrogant about asking, “why can’t I just have my waffle.”

    At various points during this electoral circus I have seen grumpy candidates who were trying to signal in various ways they need a few moments alone.

    Are you f*%#ing kidding me? Do you want a list of all the “stupid” things that ALL candidates say on the campaign trail? Good lord, obviously your list would be infinite.

    I know it’s hard and maybe impossible, but can’t you at least try to engage in an intelligent debate. We get it, you hate Barack, but come on.

    The man has been campaigning for a straight year, and he probably speaks to about 20 reporters per day, who ask the same questions over and over again.

    Let him eat a waffle in peace!

    Wow, what investigative journalism. Especially since it happened Monday. Way to get the “big” story. I guess for people like Dave, Sandra, Mitchisaturd and Breaker 19, this is an actual campaign issue. And these people actually vote? [cue scary music].

    Obama did not talk to reporters for 10 days. Check out the news stories. He was on some type of strike. Today it was reported he started talking to reporters again…and the first question Obama got was “why aren’t you eating a waffle?”

    This reminds of when Obama was campaigning in Austin, TX and the reporters/media were asking their questions. He had the nerve to say to them “man, I’ve already answered like 7 questions…I need to go” and he left the room. He is such a joke. He only likes things when they benefit him. Do you think the President only has to answer a few questions from the White House corps.? No, he answers until there aren’t any more.

    From a friend whose husband is a retired Army Colonel. They have lived all over the world….from Germany to Korea.

    I’m sending this from a friend who received it directly from the Missionaries. It’s pretty scary…..

    Here is a note concerning Obama from missionaries in Kenya.
    ===========================================
    Thanks for sending out an alert about Obama. We are living and working in Kenya for almost twelve years now and know his family (tribe) well. They are the ones who were behind the recent Presidential election chaos here. Thousands of people have been displaced by election violence (over 350,000) and I don’t know the last count of the dead. Obama under ‘friends of Obama’ gave almost a million dollars to the opposition campaign who just happened to be his cousin, Raila Odinga, who is a socialist trained in east Germany. He has been trying to bring Kenya down for years and the last president threw him in prison for trying to subvert this country! December 27th elections brought cries from ODM (Odinga Camp) of rigged election. Obama and Raila speak daily. As we watch Obama rise in the US we are sure that whatever happens, he will use the same tactic, crying rigged election if he doesn’t win and possibly cause! A race war in America.

    What we would like you to know is what the American press has been keeping a dirty little secret. Obama IS a Muslim and he IS a racist and this is a fulfillment of the 911 threat that was just the beginning. Jihad is the only true Muslim way. We have been working with them for 20 years this July. He is not an American as we know it. Please encourage your friends and associates not to be taken in by those that are promoting him. It is world wide jihad. All our friends in Europe are very disturbed by the Muslim infiltration into their countries. By the way. His true name is Barak Hussein Muhammed Obama. Won’t that sound sweet to our enemies as they swear him in on the Koran!
    God Bless you.

    Pray for us here in Kenya. We are still fighting for our nation to withstand the same kind of assault that every nation, including America, is fighting. Takeover from the outside to fit the new world order. As believers, this means we will be the first targets. Here in Kenya, not one mosque was burned down, but hundreds of churches were burned down, some with people in them, burned alive.

    Jesus Christ is our peace but the new world order of Globalism has infiltrated the church and confused believers into thinking that they can compromise and survive. It won’t be so. I will send you a newsletter we sent out in February documenting in a more cohesive manner what I’ve tried to say in a few paragraphs.
    Love, Celeste

    Celeste and Loren Davis

    URBAN LEGEND…don’t people check these things:

    Origins: This widely-circulated message from Celeste Davis (of Loren Davis Ministries) references Kenyan politician Raila Amolo Odinga, who represented the Orange Democratic Movement Party of Kenya against incumbent Mwai Kibaki in a presidential election held on 27 December 2007. Kibaki was initially proclaimed the winner of a close election, the results of which where challenged by Odinga as having been manipulated. (International observers generally agreed that the election count was flawed.) Violent protests over the disputed election results eventually left 1,500 people dead and displaced an estimated 600,000 more before Kibaki and Odinga agreed to form a coalition government in a power-sharing deal negotiated by former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan. Odinga was sworn in as the prime minister of a national unity government on 17 April 2008.

    Raila Odinga (who was jailed for a total of eight years beginning in 1982 for protesting the one-party rule of Kenya’s then-dictator, Daniel Arap Moi) claims to be a cousin of Illinois senator Barack Obama (maintaining that Obama’s biological father was his maternal uncle), but that claim has
    not been substantiated. We could not find any credible information documenting the claims that Barack Obama speaks to Odinga daily, or that he contributed a million dollars to Odinga’s presidential campaign. The claim that Barack Obama is a Muslim has already been widely debunked, and the claim that Obama will “use the same tactic [of] crying rigged election if he doesn’t win and possibly cause a race war in America” is nothing more than an expression of the author’s partisanship.

    If I were Obama I would be pissed too. He spends 15 hours a day campaigning and all he wants to do is eat his f’ing breakfast without some reporter asking him a question. I mean can he even enjoy a freaking meal without being bothered by some idiot reporter? Cant the reporter wait till he’s finished eating and then ask?

    You know, wanting to have your peace everyone once & awhile does not suggest being a bad president. Maybe Obama’s responses to things are a lot different then past candidates, but what is the country in desperate need of right now? That would be change. Something he is offering. Obama has time & time again referred to the Iraq war as ‘dumb’. We need a president who doesn’t sugar coat things, who doesn’t try & please everyone with false beliefs & wishes to win them over, we need truth. Something he offers. So if he wants to eat a god damn waffle & is a little crabby about it then let him be. I highly doubt you’ve ever been in someone’s shoes in such situations. So kindly shut up.

    (Plus that quote is hilarious.)
