Obama's Got F*** You Money!
2008-06-23

It’s good that I watched Hannity’s America this week or I wouldn’t have known that Obama broke a pinkie swear. Guess he is doing something he said he wasn’t going to do and Sean was foaming at the mouth about it. It’s all about the cash. Isn’t it always? It seems Obama has a butt load of it and people are pissed about it. I think most white guys in blue suits and red ties are used to being the ones with the biggest pile of dough so it makes sense that he’s scaring the hell out of them. They could probably handle it if he was a rapper or a power forward in the NBA but not someone who is real, real close to being president of this country. He has so much money that he is telling the government to keep their spare change and he’s going to run for president on his own dime. It’s never happened before and probably never will again so we probably should cut these ex frat boy talk show hosts some slack. I know Sean is wetting his pants cuz in Hannity’s America there is no black prez. Maybe a Secretary of Agriculture or something but not the head cheese. I read in the paper that Obama raked in over 250 million bucks running against Hillary and still has 40 or 50 mill left. The deal is now that he’s taking on that mummy guy McCain he’s going to need like a billion to have a chance. Once they start telling everyone that he’s black and watches BET at night when he kicks back it could be over. He’s got to run one of those commercials where he tells everyone that he loves this country and never watches BET. That his mom and grandma were white and that he’s heavily into the Hills and Punked. Those Republicans are real good at calling Democrats names. Stuff that’s not nice. Why do they do it? Cuz it works. I found out myself in grade school that if you want to take someone down you can do it by putting out a shit load of garbage about them and hope at least something sticks. Like when I got sick of being beat up by this older kid named Ricky. He took my lunch money every day that year so finally right before summer break I had enough and decided to spread some icky things about him all over the neighborhood. Looking back it wasn’t a good thing to do but he was really messing up my life. I mean I lost like 17 pounds that school year. So I told a bunch of kids that he was a bed wetter, an illegal alien, a real alien, a DEA snitch, a Barry Manilow fan, a vampire, a member of that man/boy club, a mime and a bunch of other stuff that was way worse. He got really mad at me but what could he do? It was out there and it would have taken him like 20 years to tell everyone that none of it was true. See he couldn’t buy one of those 30 second commercials on tv to tell the neighborhood it was all a bunch of crap. He didn’t have enough cash to get the truth out, even with my lunch money so he moved away to live with his uncle in Florida. I learned early that words can do a lot of damage. So even though Obama told a big fat lie about this campaign money thing who can blame him? Would you rather have 80 some million or 200 million? I heard he could maybe raise 300 if he really got down and begged. The cool thing about it is he’s not begging all those oil, drug and credit card companies for money. No, he’s getting all those millions over the internet from losers like me and you. Most of it in 20’s and 50’s. Who knew there were that many losers out there with computers? So the mummy man will get his dough from the usual places Republicans get theirs and we’ll see who kicks whose ass. I’m thinking when it gets close to Halloween the rich white dudes will really open their wallets and try to stop the now not poor black dude but it’s going to be too late. They can say whatever they want about him, he has the juice to tell them to talk to the hand. That’s what a kazillion dollars can do for you. I've heard every dog has his day and it’s starting to look like that it may actually be true here. At least one with really, really large bank. Later.

If you email Spike, he'll read it.
