Because it’s clear how much he cares by the way he takes care of his half-brother even as he rallies for Raila Odinga, yes?

The comments!!!! Churchill = Bin Laden.
“wotching said…
I wonder how some of them would feel with a bust of Bin Laden (or the equivalent thereof) in their living space?
Zero ability to place things in context – except into the hatred box.”

I can’t find my hatred box. Dammit.

Good Kenyans demand nothing less than ethnically-appropriate torture.
Comment by Bob Reed on 2/15 @ 8:08 pm #
You all don’y understand…
O! couldn’t have a statue of the man that refused to catch the Mau-Mau-ers flack…
Churchill wasn’t enough of an enlightened multi-culturalist…
I mean, just necause O! won’t let Raila hold a little sumpin’-sumpin’, when 20$ would exceed years of wages in Kenya; that don’t mean nothin’…
I can’t see how that would help, you know, Michelle’s children anyway…
He ain’t heavy, He’s my brother…
O!

I’m okay with Barack deciding to put whichever damn statue he wants in the Oval Office.
except the Remington Bronc Buster statue:

Cross posted over there, if it gets through moderation.
Who’d want a bust of someone who was responsible for torturing your grandfather?
It would be like having a bust of Bush, Cheney, or Rummy in your home.
Or Lincoln if you are from the south.

This is what the bust reminds me of.
If you find the video link creepy or distracting, close your eyes.

AMC’s 35th Anniversay retro on Blazing Saddles… watching it, too. Kinda spoiled it though with the bleeped out words… think I’ll get out my uncensored version, while I still allowed to own it.
Wonder when it’s going to be relegated to the dustbin like Huck Finn?
Oh, and up yours, nigger.

Maybe there’s another reason why Obama doesn’t like Churchill.
Comment by Joan of Argghh! on 2/15 @ 10:42 pm #
Cuz Churchill wouldn’t shut his yap about the Muslims:
“No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.”
And Cuz Churchill opposed slavery:
“The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.”

Over 40 years ago, 1963-4, in tenth grade, I had two or three weeks of my government class devoted to propaganda techniques. Nazi and Communist both.
Do they do anything like that anymore? Anyone with a more recent class, high school level, that examined how media manipulates minds?
Comment by Jeffersonian on 2/15 @ 11:11 pm #
We did it back in, as I recall, Geoff, freshman year History. That would have been about 1974.
Comment by Joe on 2/15 @ 11:16 pm #
Only to tell kids how evil George W. Bush was. Seriously, that goes on. It is definitely not the class you took.

Fuck Churchill’s bust if it’s even mildly or remotely a reminder to our great President Barack Obama of the slaughter of the 300,000 Kikuyu of Kenya and the torture of hundreds of thousands more during the internment of the entire Kikuyu population of Kenya.
If the distraction of Churchill’s bust is in anyway symbolic to President Obama of crimes perpetrated against the hundreds of thousands of men and women in Kenya then may that that Churchilian gargoyle find petrol, flames and ashes. There is no sane defense for sheer racist slaughter.

No, they just teach the Communist propaganda straight-up, now.

Not even in defense of a noble project like the Fairness Doctrine. thor?
But, as I said, it’s important that the butchers of Africans be of the proper ethnicity so as to not provoke the delicate sensibilities of the Western soggy set.

Would he be as upset if it were his MATERNAL grandparent, say, that Churchill threw under the bus? It seems defensiveness regarding ancestors is kind of selective in the Obama camp.

Comment by Carin on 2/16 @ 6:38 am #
Baracky’s big on meaningless sybolic gestures, so removing the statue is right up his alley.
It’s a ton cheaper than floating some jack toward that school like he promised. Or helping out his brother. I wonder if some Republican can step forward and help out his brother?
Comment by Carin on 2/16 @ 6:39 am #
I think he also hates Churchill because he uttered so many cool quotes. Unlike him, who despite being the greatest speaker of our time hasn’t really come up with anything very profound.
Oh, except the “I won” bit.

Of course, THAT could be really funny.
Comment by Carin on 2/16 @ 7:34 am #
Not to go OT, but I’m thinking the Chavez dealo may have some … relevancy for our media. Those dupes down there just voted for a dictatorship. Some would see the propaganda and state controlled media outlets (along with mandatory airing of presidential addresses) as … like … a warning bell.
I’m going to go look for liberal concern about this.

Two points:
1) Would Churchill’s bust be a distraction from Obama tending the unicorns and watering the Skittle trees? Some might think it wise for Obama to have Churchill’s bust there as a cautionary tale.
And Petrol and Ashes? Dude – Never in the history of mankind has petrol melted bronze into ashes. Google it

Μολὼν λάβε, bitch.
Comment by Rob Crawford on 2/16 @ 8:13 am #
The left hated Churchill when he was warning against the dangers of Naziism — he was a “war monger”. When Hitler invaded the Soviet Union, the Internationale sent out the word, and Churchill was OK.
Then Hitler fell, and Churchill had outlasted his usefulness. A grateful nation kicked him to the curb, and instituted economic controls so damaging they were still under war-time rationing twenty years later.
Then Churchill made his “Iron Curtain” speech, and became an enemy of the left. Suddenly, acts which he had no role in became his personal crimes — despite the fact they’d disappear in the rounding error when you totaled up the victims of his enemies.
Comment by Rob Crawford on 2/16 @ 8:15 am #
SPB — one of the “charming” trolls over at Patterico was expressing the desire to see Limbaugh sent to the guillotine yesterday. The left seems rather blasé in its use of totalitarian language.

Obama and Chavez comparisons.
Comment by Jeffersonian on 2/16 @ 8:20 am #
Hopefully in the next eight years we will begin the process of taking this country of our away from the free market system and follow in the footsteps of bold leaders like Chavez. We need to throw out this system that has proven itself ineffective in today’s world economy. The rich fat cats of this country fear the rise of the poor and the middle class. THAT’S why the Republicans have been against the stimulus bill. It lets government resume the role it needs to as protector of the people.
Next step: Nationalized Health Care and the muzzling of jingoistic buffoons like Limbaugh and Hanitty.
I have no doubt whatsoever this will be attempted. There are always those who will man the valves at the “showers.”

He’s making peace with the Kikuyus. Last year’s Kenya violence was mainly a low-level war against the Kikuyu, with the Luo being the main antagonist. (The Luo tribe is Obama’s, mine and PM Odinga’s.)

Slut-boy-P’brain hates Stalin because he defeated Hitler, and slut-boy loves him his Hitler (elevaty!!!11!!)
Where did I ever say I hated Churchill?
Before your next post, stop. Take your dick out of your hand, dick-puller, and think. Ask yourself if what you’re about to post merely further illuminates your obvious low-IQ or it is at all related to another post or the thread topic in general. Everyone here is sick of you and your repetitive dumbassed take-a-nap posts. You ain’t funny. You’re not entertaining. Relevant doesn’t describe your posts. You’ve become a wind-up clucker, an annoying, mechanized, redundant one-track dope. Grow up.
Now, back to our normally scheduled programming.
Dan, who cares which busts Obama chooses for his office knick-knacks. It’s his option to re-decorate, as it was with all who came before him.
Comment by baldilocks on 2/16 @ 4:49 pm #
“Who’d want a bust of someone who was responsible for torturing your grandfather?”
Why would the Brits have tortured Obama’s grandfather? He wasn’t Kikuyu. The Mau-Mau was a Kikuyu insurgency. Obama claim about his grandfather is suspect but it gets a pass because most Americans are familiar with the history specified. I say that the claim of his Gramp’s torture is BS like just about everything else that Obama says.

thor,
It still remains that Obama talks a lot about sacrifice and responsibility for others…
Why then can’t he let his brother hold a little somethin’? I mean, O!s got soooooooooooo much more do-re-mi than Raila he could certainly let him have a few hundred to ease Raila’s burden a bit…
He doesn’t seem to have a problem redistributing other people’s money here at home…
You’re loaded; why don’t you send Raila a little somethin’..? Instead of muttering about things that Juliette revealed to be factually incorrect…
Jus’ Sayin’…

Or, heck, how about buying a brisket and putting it in the slow cooker?
Even Jimmy Carter turned down the heat in the White House (or claimed to have) and wore a sweater.
Barky cranks it up to sauna-like temperatures and dines on $100/lb. steak.
Swiped from (I think) Prof. Reynolds: why is it that the people who keep telling us that there’s a crisis don’t act like there’s a crisis?
