Name-Caller in Chief: Republicans Are Slurpee-Sippers(?)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, October 9, 2010, 4:42 PM
Barack Obama hates Slurpees.
Is this really supposed to win him votes?
Barack Obama has portrayed GOP leaders as Slurpee sipers in at least 20 speeches in the last 2 months.
CBS News reported:
To hear President Obama tell it, Slurpees are the beverage of choice of obstructionist Republicans.
In each of 20 political speeches over the last two months, Mr. Obama has included a riff in which he portrays GOP leaders as sipping Slurpees while hard-working Democrats struggle to pull the economy out of a ditch.
“We’re down there. It’s hot. We were sweating. Bugs everywhere. We’re down there pushing, pushing, pushing on the car. Every once in a while we’d look up and see the Republicans standing there. They’re just standing there fanning themselves — sipping on a Slurpee.”
The line never fails to get a laugh, as it did Thursday afternoon at a Democratic rally at Bowie State University in Maryland. His audience laughs and Mr. Obama does too. He clearly gets a kick out of the image of GOP leaders sipping a slushy, ice-cold Slurpee while Democrats like himself nearly kill themselves to pull the economy out of the ditch of the GOP’s making.
Though he doesn’t mention any Slurpee-sipping Republicans by name, his rhetoric suggests an image of Senate and House Minority Leaders Mitch McConnell and John Boehner, dressed casually (perhaps in shorts and sneakers) with a couple of Big Gulp cups in their hands, sipping on 7-Eleven’s sweet and glacial libation. You can almost see the extra-long flex-straw through which the leaders are sucking in their liquid refreshment.

Bashing on 7-11 products… you sure hate business, don’t you Obama? It actually seems quite wise and prudent to be sipping a Slurpee when conditions are hot and sweaty. Especially when the only reason you’re hot and sweaty is because you’ve been exerting so much energy screwing up the country… given that’s the reason you’re so icky, congratulations are in order for the Republicans who decided not to help you. Or are you just upset that the selfish Republicans didn’t spread the Slurpees around? Because at some point, you’ve just drank enough Slurpee, and someone else should get the rest. Or is it the wasted calories in a Slurpee? Is that it? Did Michelle get on your case for drinking a Slurpee once and now you’re jealous because you’re not allowed to have them anymore?

Yes Obowma, they’re fanning themselves and taking in fluids.
Ya see, dumbass, while you and your crime inc. are pushing that car over a cliff, the repubs are going to have to pull it back up.
wanumba commented:
Left humor is not actually humor, but mockery. That means cutting someone down.
Meanwhile, the “Slurpee Sippers” are the entrepreneurial middle class who drive pick-up trucks hauling their mobile workshops to the job sites, and schedule clients, orders and business on the cell phone while driving between sites.
Everything the Obama Admin and the Democrats have done and plan to do is to destroy their ability to work – gas taxes, job regulations, CAFE requirements, even demanding no cell phone usage during driving.
Of course Obama gets a laugh. Like HIM, the never have worked students do not know YET what it takes to earn an honest living.
OxyCon commented:
Obama is deliberately using slave imagery on his Black base, much like he did in the Democrat primary when he used the anti-White “hoodwink and bamboozle” code words.
Here Obama is painting a vision of rich lazy White people sitting on their antebellum front porches drinking cold drinks while Obama and his fellow Blacks are slaving out in the fields.
It’s a real shame the Democrat-media complex doesn’t have the will, the morals or the intestinal fortitude to call Obama out on his divisive behavior, which is really hurting race relations in this great country of ours.
What other anecdotal meaning, or reason does Obama have for using this incredibly stupid sounding metaphor?
The Watcher commented:
So the Republicans are going out, buying and drinking Slurpees, thus providing a business with income. The Democrats, on the other hand, are sticking those bendy-straws into our very lifeblood – our incomes – and draining us dry. Give me a Slurpee-sipper over a Cash-leech, any day.
Multitude commented:
Strange man, Obama is. Odd duck. Something’s wrong inside, because that kind of detachment and hate just isn’t normal.
When I look at a regular American sipping on a slurpee, it’s a simple pleasure paid for with their hard-earned money.
When I look at Obama golfing his bi-weekly 18 holes, I see someone enjoying the leisure life on money taken out of our pockets.
Subsequently, it’s not hard to appreciate the disdain in his uncomfortable grasshopper mocking of the inferior ants out there taking a momentary break from their labor. The tapeworms and ticks that follow the great grasshopper equally mock us, but their day of accountability is looming. Many of us have awoken and realized this parasite will consume until it kills us, rather than seeking mere co-existence. In an “us or them” scenario, you can be certain we’ll deal with them this time. Defund the Dept. of Energy, Education and the IRS. Shut down NPR, PBS and other Ministries of Propaganda. Eliminate the welfare state.
Then we can sip on our Slurpees as we watch the parasites sweat, working up their first honest day’s work.

In other words, Republicans are down to earth people who hang around 7-11 drinking Slurpees while Democrats are at Whole Foods, eating arugula?
Seems to me that Obama’s line can be seen as linking the common man to the Republicans. So in that sense, it doesn’t bother me.

vsatt#9 says to Barry, “…I doubt you…have ever done a day’s work outside with the hot sun beating down on you and the dirt crusting under your nails.”
But let’s see…
Just imagine his golf game: I’d bet 18 holes takes him all day when it’s sunny and I’d bet he’s had to get his finger nails pretty dirty fishing his balls out of one mess or another.
That’s Barry’s idea of work. And it doesn’t bother him in the least that we foot the bill for it.

It would be great to see all the conservatives smiling, waving, and drinking the free Slurpees I would hand out as they enter the polling place. Ahhh…the fantasy…..maybe we could all chant ‘MMMMMM MMMMMM MMMMMM We Vote… No More….Obama!!!
The messiah just hates real folks, doesn’t he?
Pucker up, Baracky…you’re about to get a big kiss-off from the Slurpee sippers on Nov. 2.

Screw that jerk off. He is the most classless President this country has ever seen. It started in his inaugeration speech where he classlessly dissed Bush and hasnt stopped since. He puts down hard working Americans,successful businesses and people, he divides by race, gender, moey etc etc etc. He is a clueless prick and needs a symbolic ass kicking in Nov.

This is the same thing he did in the presidential election. Remember- if you vote for him you are successful, smart, young. If you vote against him you are a stupid clinger and old. I know a surprising amount of people who fell for this- young-middle aged smart business type people who just didn’t want to be grouped with the ‘wrong sort’. Fortunately I think most of them have seen the light and recognize that they were manipulated. Pick a target, freeze it….We all know that people who buy slurpees are poor,uneducated, dunces, bible clinging and gun clinging- that is his message. It worked the first time so he is doing it again.

Black Republicans to Heal Obama’s Racial Divide
[And it will be these black Republicans – with plenty more to come as the racial barriers erected by liberalism are torn down – who will do what Obama was supposed to do: make race a moot issue in America. Obama promised us racial healing, he gave us racial animosity – he’s played the liberal race card from the bottom of the deck. Now he and his liberals are going to get the best answer from the American people – Americans who happen to be black telling Obama and his liberals where to get off.
Longer term, the most important effect of these black Republicans is that they will be living, breathing answers to the liberal idea that black people can’t make it in “white” America. This, in and of itself, will be a grand service to our great nation. The times are, indeed, a-changing…and liberalism is about to be buried.]
Amen, and MLK was a Republican!!

[There are currently 42 black members of Congress, all of them Democrats. Republicans haven't had a black congressman since J.C. Watts stood down in 2003. Ironically, opposition to the policies of the first black President on a whole range of economic and social issues are a key motivating factor for this new wave of black conservatives.
Rather than ushering in a post-racial era, Obama's election to the White House appears to have intensified racial divisions in America. This is not, as the Left asserts, because Right-wing opponents are full of white-hooded bigots who refuse to accept a black man as President. Obama's own strange myopia on race has played a big part.
[..]
In a recent Rolling Stone interview, Obama gave a coded version of the standard liberal smear of the anti-tax Tea Party movement as being racist, referring its “darker” elements that “are troubled by what I represent as the president”.
It’s little wonder that a recent Rasmussen survey found that just 36 percent of voters now believe relations between blacks and whites are getting better, compared to 62 percent in July last year.
[..]
Obama made history by winning the White House. But it will take the likes of Scott to break down the racial barriers in America that the first black president has been content to leave in place.]
just a sample:
Black Republicans Now & During
the Reconstruction of America
[During the era of Reconstruction, Democrats - using the Ku Klux Klan - launched a reign of terror against Republican leaders, especially black Republican elected officials. The brutal acts by Democrats was the reason there were no more black Republicans elected to Congress for nearly one hundred years, until the election of Edward Brooke of Massachusetts in 1966.
Racism in the Democratic Party - past and present - is buried by the liberal press since it does not fit within the media template where the Republican Party is painted as a racist party. The charge that the Republican Party lacks diversity prevails in spite of the existence of around two million black Republicans in America. Also disregarded by
the media is the fact that a black man, Michael Steele, is chairman of
the Republican National Committee.
Invisible to liberal journalists are talented black Republicans such as NFL hall of famer Lynn Swann; boxing promoter Don King; singer/songwriter Lloyd Marcus; actor/wrestler Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson; rapper/actor James "LL Cool J" Todd Smith; and businessman/talk show host Herman Cain.
Virtually no credit is given to Republican leaders for their inclusiveness, including President George W. Bush who appointed more blacks to high-level positions than any president in our nation's history. Bush's appointees included Gen. Colin Powell as the first black Secretary of State and Dr. Condoleezza Rice as the first black woman Secretary of State. Both of these accomplished black Republicans were derided as "House Negroes" by Democrats.
While denouncing the Republican Party because so few blacks attend Republican meetings, journalists overlook how the denigration of black Republicans by Democrats instills in most blacks a reluctance to become politically active in the Republican Party.]

Just about every president has gotten flack for taking too many vacations, playing golf, and poking fun at the opposing party. Just about every Democratic President has pushed for health care reform.
The fact that an entire movement has been born of mostly white people suddenly feeling disenfranchised by this administration – though Obama is not behaving any more radical or less-elitist than any other president – is why the majority of the population view the Tea Party as a fundamentally racist assembly. Would there be a Tea Party movement if Hillary Clinton was president? Bet your bottom dollar there would not.
The Tea Party is just a 21st Century, PC version of the KKK.

In answer to your question, I can speculate that the Tea Party movement would be about half the size it is, if Hillary Clinton was president, not because of the color of her skin, but the pragmatism of her policies.
I assume that Hillary Clinton, as President, would have echoed her husband’s strategy of governing from the middle, just like both George Bushes did. And, I also assume she would have picked a host of more competent people to fill important governmental positions such as Attorney General, because those people exist but are singularly lacking in the present administration.
Only about half of the Tea Party refer to themselves as Conservative. The rest are something else. Now what would that be? Well, the remainder of the country are Liberals and Libertarians.
I am awash in Liberals, and they are all disappointed by the ineptitude of this administration’s actions and revolted by its carelessness for process (equal protection under the law).
And here’s a little essay from one of the speakers the Tea Partiers really love.

He isn’t the worst president … he’s the worst president that EVER WILL BE. Beyond stupid. But his severe, malignant narcissism keeps him from drowning. He simply cannot face the humiliation he now is subject to, and the 100 ft tidal wave that IS headed his way. So … he treads water … and ignores it.
Mark My Words:
Obama will not serve out his term of office. Before being removed, by rule of Constitutional law. He IS done. And we will put a fork in him. Far far too many rats are hurriedly deserting the sinking ship. They already know the ship’s headed for a watery grave. And they ain’t gunna wait for November Second when it goes under.

@ K #73 So your point would be that a large group of people IE the Tea Party are raciest because they oppose Obama, following your logic are we to believe blacks are also raciest, because 94% of the black voters, voted Obama.
