I Found Hillary Boy

August 23, 2007 By: refrieds Category: politics No Comments →

After all the talk about Obama Girl, you knew it was only a matter of time before Hillary got some lovin’:

“After my posting last week of a music video by Obama Girl, I hunted YouTube to find out if Hillary Clinton also has a musical admirer. She doesn’t. I can’t figure out why. As a middle-aged white male, I find Hillary … how do the kids put it these days? Oh yes! Hot!” (Edmonton Journal)

He isn’t the only one curious about the existence of a “Hillary Boy”:

“I don’t think that Bill Clinton necessarily would have laughed if a ‘Bill Girl’ had existed in his era. Now I’m trying to picture a ‘Hillary Boy.’”— Ontario Emperor.

A Blog About Nothing replied: “A Hillary boy? I think I just threw up in my mouth. Just a little bit…”.

I searched and finally found him right here.

I don’t think Bill has anything to worry about.

Are there any other Hillary Boys out there? What can she do to up the quality of her groupies?

If Obama Can’t Laugh, He Won’t Win

August 21, 2007 By: refrieds Category: politics 4 Comments →

Days ago, I thought Obama Girl would ruin the election for Barak Obama. 

Little did I know how right I was.  Not because Obama lacks self-control.  Obama lacks a sense of humor:

Sen. Obama, D-Ill., said he knows the video was meant to be lighthearted, but he wasn’t smiling when asked about it .  “I guess it’s too much to ask, but you do wish people would think about what impact their actions have on kids and families,” Obama said.

What a party pooper. 

If we have learned anything over the past two election cycles, it’s the fact that Americans want a president who is fun. 

And if Barak Obama doesn’t find his smile, he won’t have a chance against Sopranos lovin’ Hilary Clinton. 

At this rate, he reminds me of another intelligent, grumpy, boring and easily frustrated media celebrity who enjoys activities such as paper clip and bottle cap collecting, cooking oatmeal and watching pigeons.

Left to his own devices, he’d probably put the Obama Girl in a burka.

And that, my friends, is un-American.

Obama Girl = Donna Rice?

August 16, 2007 By: refrieds Category: politics 15 Comments →

GQ has a feature on Barak Obama with a damning observation:

The history of presidential primaries is littered with candidates who captivated voters early in the process only to be abandoned for the more cautious alternative come Election Day. Now Obama’s pollsters were finding alarming evidence that their candidate was vulnerable to the same phenomenon.

The San Diego Tribune fears that Barak Obama is the 1984 Gary Hart, who captivated voters early, but lost to snoozerific Walter Mondale.  

But I have a different fear: The Obama Girl will be to Barak what Donna Rice was to Gary Hart in 1987.

As a refresher, Gary Hart was hugely favored to take the Democratic nomination was riding high until he uttered a challenge he shouldn’t have made:

“Follow me around. I don’t care. I’m serious.  If anybody wants to put a tail on me, go ahead. They’ll be very bored.”

They followed him, and found this:

A photo with his mistress on a boat called “Monkey Business”.

With that, his campaign was doomed.

Since Obama never schtupped the Obama Girl, maybe the Obama Girl might be more like the blonde in Harold Ford’s Senate Campaign.

Harold Ford seemed like he was going to win until Republicans ran an October Surprise commercial suggesting the brotha liked white women.

It had a ruinous effect on Ford’s candidacy.

Unlike Ford’s October Surprise, voters have had months to visualize all the sick, depraved, sexual things the crazed, stalkerific Obama Girl would do to poor Barak.  

The question is, will some voters playa hate as a result?  And will that playa hating cost Obama the Democratic nomination?

If Obama suffers the same fate as Harold Ford it will be a shame.

A shame that he got blamed for a video he didn’t create and a girl he never hooked up with.
