I loved that "He gives textbook answers" complaint.

Really, thats the best you can come up with?

How quickly you forget our last president, who did not give textbook answers, because no self-respecting editor would let answers like that be printed!

"Waffling Muslim"?

I'm going to have to GIS that.
 
2011-02-08 06:39:30 PM
Made me think of this (new window) waffle.
 
2011-02-08 06:45:21 PM
What's the big deal? Waffles are halal, aren't they?

I just want to say that I've been to Iowa and the people I met there didn't seem retarded at all. The people in this video do not represent all Iowans.
 
2011-02-08 07:00:19 PM
They all seem like very well-infromed Real Americans, who eschew "textbook answers" in favor of regurgitating whatever the fark Palin or Beck spewed the previous day or two.
 
2011-02-08 07:09:50 PM
That's true, actually. Just like it is true that every conservative male is a waffling homosexual, every conservative woman is a waffling idiot, and every conservative person of color is a waffling nuts.

I live in Iowa, and you are absolutely correct. There is a vocal right wing, but they mainly hang out in the western part of the state.

I was in Iowa too, except it was Chicago, but they seemed cool.

At least they didn't call him a scruffy-looking nerf-herder.
 
2011-02-08 07:43:32 PM
The first two commenters set the stage for the derp.

"I don't think he has a grasp on how serious this can be. He doesn't seem to have... know what the details are and what we want and what we need as a country."

"He talks about making them into a republic but all he talks about is democracies, he doesn't know what a republic is."

Freaking hillarious

"I don't think he has a grasp on how serious this can be, he doesn't seem to know what the details are and what we want and what we need as a country." - Hey asshole, you sure as hell aren't Egyptian, who the fark cares what America needs as a country when it comes to Egyptian people wanting democracy??

"I believe that he is a muslim." - The reporter should have asked someone WHAT about him makes them believe he is a muslim even though he has, time and time again, talked about his christian faith.

"I believe he's a muslim sympathetic, not a practicing muslim." - Oh really?? What should he be? Mustlims are going to hell and should be rounded up and shot?? What do you want him to be? Intolerant like you coonts?

"His religious belief is liberalism, and that's the most intolerant religion of all, there's no room for wiggle..." - Really, as a CONSERVATIVE, you talk about liberals having no room to wiggle?? You can't let go of the fact that the president is a tax raising socialist muslim, yet he lowered taxes and has talked about his christian faith, and you're saying HE'S the one who's not wiggling??

"He is Neville Chaimberlan in 1939, he is an appeaser..." -- WHO is he appeasing??? This guy is the worst at godwinning anything!

"Every crisis snuck up on him" -- REALLY??? You dumb biatch, that's what crisis' are! No one announces "hey, in about 5 months, we're going to rise up against the gov't, everyone beware"

"I think he believes that America is at fault for the world's problem" -- WHAT farking part of anything has he said that will make you believe that?? In what way is he apologizing for America to the Egyptians??

You really can't fix stupid. I know these people don't know about, and I hope they never even hear about, Maharishi Vedic City, it's where people would go to escape the ignorance of people like this.

At least he's not Welsh.

Were they wearing masks? Because they didn't look like Rush, Hannity, Beck, Coulter or Ingraham, but they sure sounded a lot like them.
 
2011-02-08 08:58:00 PM
If you were to just show this to me completely without context or preamble, I would have to assume it was some sort of trollish satire/parody. Mainly in an attempt to preserve my belief that no matter how easy it is to lampoon "the other side," they're truly not as stupid as one might choose to paint them. Except when they are.
 
2011-02-08 09:15:11 PM
That was frightening. Several of those people were visibly angry while having no clue what they were talking about.

I bet a month ago not one of the people in that group could have named Egypt's President but NOW, because they have such a clear, obvious hatred for Obama, they are the experts.

They are a perfect example of FOX news watchers....:)

Exactly. Every opinion question should accompanied by a skill testing question.

Q: How do think Obama is handling of the Egyptian situation?
Q: What is the capital of Egypt?


Q: Is Obama a Muslim?
Q: What upsets you more, Obama being a practicing Muslim or having a racist reverend?

Waffling Muslim sounds like a good name for a diner.
And here's the kicker: you get bacon with your order, whether you asked for it or not.

I can't think of anything funny at all to say about this

I can: these people will help pick the 2012 GOP nominee. In fact, they'll be the first to be heard. That's hilarious.
 
2011-02-08 09:30:51 PM
What's wrong with being a muslim? And shouldn't they like when he waffles? Would they rather him just be super liberal like they claim he is? I would think him waffling would make them happy, since it means he's caving to their wishes.
 
2011-02-08 09:30:51 PM
I really wish there was a way to round these people up and mass lobotomize them.
 
2011-02-08 09:31:22 PM
Waffling Muslim? Does that mean our president is a Muslim that eats at Waffle House? Damn you Fartbama!
 
2011-02-08 09:32:13 PM
If you believe that God exists, He exists.

If you believe that Obama is a Muslim, he quite clearly is.
 
2011-02-08 09:32:23 PM
My wife made me turn it off. She's pregnant and said it was upsetting the baby.

My wife rarely makes me turn stuff off.

I couldn't watch the whole thing. Seriously, what universe do these people live in?

I knew some people in western Iowa, back in the early 90s, when I had a girlfriend from there. Most of them seemed to be relatively intelligent people. Except for the Missouri Synod Lutheran friend who went off the deep end. And the fact that they seemed to think Judy Blume books were worthy of being banned. Maybe those were harbingers of a deeper derp.
 
2011-02-08 09:33:52 PM
Serious question: why is stuff like this continuing to happen? There were plenty of folks who didn't like LBJ or Carter, but I don't believe they ever were labeled Manchurian candidates by an entire bloc of the electorate.

Even Clinton had goofy stuff hurled him (Vince Foster conspiracies, etc), but nothing that compares to this.

Is it that the media has become so shrieking and inflammatory or is it because Obama is black? I really don't understand this. It's actually sad.

Disagreeing with the man is fine. Thinking he's a Muslim traitor is delusional.
 
2011-02-08 09:34:42 PM
That guy had it a little mixed up. Obama isn't Neville Chamberlain in 1939, he's Aaron Neville in 1989.

I don't think there's much left of their brains as it is. All they seem to have is a brain stem.

At first they were like "wtf is a n*gger doing on fox news?!" but then it was cleared up that he indeed worked for the network and had his own show on it named after himself.

Thought the first image was more apt myself:

By the by, the group that's saying this is at least 50% accurate.

Is it possible your perception is wrong, and that what was shown here is a better example of what your neighbors really believe? Thing is, I don't think everyone in that group who REALLY thinks ZOMG! OSAMA BARAK HUSSEIN IS A HALF-BREED MUSLIN actually spoke up. Notice how slow the reactions were? People were making sure they weren't going to be the "only one." I think the others were too frightened/embarrassed to say what they really think at all.

Unless you're a Democrat.

He's Erin Gray in 1977.

It's a confluence of factors. But mostly because he's black. The conservative mind is primitive, and governed almost entirely by fear and racism.

Ya rly.
