What on earth is wrong with Barack Obama? Is he a simpleton? Is he unable to grasp complex problems? Or is it just that he shouldn’t be allowed to speak without a teleprompter?
As you might recall, Manchild Barack Obama has already told us that as President he will expect us to follow his order: “Don’t Drive. Don’t Eat. Freeze Your Butt ala Jimmy Carter Malaise.
Now, according to this turkey, we actually won’t need to drill for oil if only all of us would just inflate our tires.That’s right folks. You inflate your tires and it will solve our oil problem. We won’t need to drill, because our properly inflated tires will save us the same amount of oil we would garner if we drilled.
I think Powerline says it best:
Barack Obama is a lot like Sean Penn or George Clooney. If you give him a script, he can deliver it pretty well. But if he tries to talk without a script that has been written for him by others, he quickly reveals that he is poorly-informed if not downright ignorant. Today he delivered another classic, by claiming that if only we would all properly inflate our tires, we could save as much gasoline as “all the oil that they’re talking about getting off drilling.” Seriously:
The stunned silence with which the crowd greets this howler suggests that most Americans have a more practical understanding of energy consumption than Obama.
And here’s the “Howler”.
Warning: Do not drink anything while you are watching this. I wouldn’t want your coffee to come out of your nose or ruin your keyboard or anything:
Powerline also did the math, which brings us to the conclusion that without a teleprompter and a pre-written script composed by somebody with an IQ, Barack Obama is truly a stunningly stupid dimwad. While he prances around the country claiming that people will try to make us afraid of him because he doesn’t look like the guys on our currency, it is becoming glaringly apparent that there is good reason to be afraid of him and it has little to do with his tan:
Properly inflating your tires can improve gas mileage by 3%. Of course, many people already keep their tires properly inflated, and many more are at least close to being properly inflated. Let’s be generous and assume that one-half of the total possible savings would be realized if we all inflated our tires properly; that’s a net gain of 1.5% fuel efficiency.
Americans drive approximately 2,880 miles per year. If we average 24 mpg, we use around 120 billion gallons of gasoline in our vehicles. If, through perfect tire inflation, we improved our collective fuel efficiency by 1.5%, that would be 1.8 billion gallons. A barrel of oil produces around 20 gallons of gasoline, so the total savings available through tire inflation is approximately 90,000,000 barrels of oil annually.
How does this stack up against “all the oil that they’re talking about getting off drilling?”
ANWR: 10 billion barrels
Outer Continental Shelf: 18 billion barrels (estimated; the actual total is undoubtedly much higher, since exploration has been banned)
Oil shale: 1 trillion barrels
So, on the above assumptions, it would take only 11,308 years of proper tire inflation to equal “all the oil that they’re talking about getting off drilling.”

I wish he would inflate his tyres… OMG he’s just too much…
Watching “FOX”
Dr Jerome Corsi
The Obama Nation Book
I trust many will get out what he is saying….or at least listen
We are the ones this is the time..
I am the one you’ve been waiting for
I truly believe he could be someones psychic
You know these people who rip off people on the 90 cent call in lines
NEVER anyones President…
May the ball drop on the right side in Denver!!
Hill YEA!
Every time I think this guy can’t get worse, he reaches a new low.
The thought that this man might become president frankly terrifies me.
Even when Bush was at his worst I never thought he’d actually ruin the country… But with Obama I have no such faith in our ability to survive him and his “policies”.
RATS! I was due for tire inflation and a tune up, but now I can’t bring myself to do it, to the potential ruination of my wheels. Another thing I can blame Barky for.
Give it another read, gang. I just improved on it. Methinks.
NOS, I am so upset. I just rotated my tires yesterday. They are properly inflated.
The thing is, why not insult everybody and tell them that they are all too stupid to keep their tires properly inflated and that this whole damned thing is their fault.
Truly, the campaign should stuff a rag in Barky’s mouth at this point.
I’m sooooo with barky. Check my tires, inflate them until they blow…
Inflate here. Inflate now. It’s the tires, stupid!
Long as you don’t use Obama’s inflated ego as a gauge. For sure they will blow.
Memorize you license plate #’s, Gang! That’ll probably be the next big idea and you won’t want to accidentally try to get in line on the wrong day. Could be detrimental to your physical and mental well-being in more ways than you care to think.
Regular tuneups? Huh? I think my owner’s manual says change the plugs and stuff at 60k miles. And the oil change place keeps track of changing air filter and stuff like that so I’m not behind on it. Geez…what an idiot!
Sorry, U W: For the first time, I disagree with you. This is not funny. This man is insane. View the video again. Obama can barely string his words together into a coherent sentence. Now put that together with the…well, craziness of what he’s saying, and you have an insane person. No jokes, no irony, no sarcasm: BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA IS NOT SANE. Drugs? Probably. A deeply disordered personality? Indubitably. I hope Howard Dean, MD, remembers something about psychosis and delirium from his one required course in psychiatry, or he’ s going to wind up running a certifiable lunatic for President.
Even Newt Gingrich tonight on Hannity, citing the tire business and Obama’ s latest declaration, “I am the symbol of hope,” called Obama “loony.” Literally–Newt’s word, not mine. He suggested, on air, that Obama take two weeks off. Translation: Obama is a crazy person in the midst of a (perpetual) nervous breakdown.
Howard Dean, you puhtz, Obama is totally broken. He cannot be fixed. You’d better cover your own ass and put a stop to Obama’s candidacy right NOW!
Somebody tell Barky that there are a lot of folks who can no longer AFFORD tune-ups. Yup, that’s right- the folks who are hardest hit by the rising cost of gas and groceries are those who drive the least fuel efficient cars and can least afford tune-ups which can cost upwards of $150.
On another note Uppity- there is a video up at The Confluence that you will like! Teaser- new refrain for “These Boots are made for Walking”
Barack Obama is the Democrat’s version of George Bush. He is just as inarticulate off the cuff, and he is worshipped by the far left wing of the party, much the same as W is still worshipped by the far right wing of his party. Every time Obama opens his mouth, McCain looks a little better.
“Without a teleprompter and a pre-written script composed by somebody with an IQ, Barack Obama is truly a stunningly stupid dimwad.”
LOL!
>Somebody tell Barky that there are a lot of folks who can no longer AFFORD tune-ups.
No worries. Barack’s plan to tax small businesses into oblivion will really help the working man out a ton.

He won’t be happy until he destroys the middle class and the US economy along with it.
Badger, the truth of the matter is, a Middle Class is not something socialists, marxists and communists want hanging around. Little do these punks who would worship that philosophy know that the “Pie” Michelle wants a piece of is THEIR pie.
barky is going to need some 36″ wheels on his bus. Or possible some tractor tires or monster truck tires to fit his ego under the bus along with everyone he knows, that is not the person he knew.
Scott, I still maintain that the McCain people knew exactly what they were doing by letting this loon keep the stage. Brilliant, really. He has had all the lip-flapping tme he wants. And he can’t help but keep flapping. He is now bordering a point where they will have to pull him off with a hook. And if that happens, the suddden silence will be deafening….as in HEY! Where’s the babbling Obama on my TV?
There is some hidden humor, IMO, in Obama’s recent remarks about proper air pressure in tires, because he didn’t originate the idea (as usual). We all remember Obama’s weak debate performances, and how whenever Hillary or John Edwards would say something that made sense, Obama would follow with “me too”. (I’ll bet he hated being called on first!) Well, the comment about inflated tires is another remark stolen from Hillary, who recently gave a blockbuster speech on energy on the Senate floor. In it, Hillary refers to a previous floor speech by Maria Cantwell, who brought up the economics of properly inflated tires on gas mileage. However, Hillary’s entire speech consisted of a comprehensive energy plan, explaining why offshore drilling only benefited the oil companies and did not contribute substantially to reducing our dependence on foreign oil.
My guess is that Obama’s speech writers once again decided to crib from Hillary, realizing that she usually knows what she’s talking about on most any subject; however, they forgot that context is everything. Unlike Hillary, Obama tosses out sentences without showing that he has given consideration to any larger plan for the energy crisis. I think Obama plagiarized these remarks from Hillary because he thought that it would show he was in touch with the average voter, mentioning something that anyone who drives a car can take responsibility for. Instead, the comment made his grasp of the energy situation look shallow. Serves him right.
Well, at least we know he can solve the energy crisis. Next? The WSJ had a great story today on how he’s too skinny to be considered “one of us.” Did he really quit smoking? Someone said something like who quits and doesn’t gain weight? Of course, we know he visits the candy factory and waffle houses but does not partake.
Star, it’s what I think he’s sticking up his nose that worries me more.
We could conserve so much energy if only everyone would plant their own arugula garden. That alone would cut anywhere from 5-7 trips to the market a week.
What? You don’t buy your arugula daily?
LOL. That keeps weight off, too…
Yeah it it also gives you an exaggerated sense of who you are—right before you become a paranoid nutcase.
Uppity, you make indeed a very interesting point re: letting Barky just fill the airwaves. I am not sure who it was that said it, it was someone (gasp) on CNN, during their discussions on elections, that letting O appear in the American living room night after night, day after day, saturation coverage, will become so irritating that the American public will gross out. (Not exactly the words, but the implication.) Newt Gingrige said that right now McCain is following the right strategy–quiet and steady and hard hitting. While the other side is talking waaaaaay too much.
There’s an old saying in Hungarian about someone like that (delete this post if you think it’s too vulgar)–he bounces around like a fart in a restroom. (it sounds a lot funnier in Hungarian.
)
Now as an aside: this thought crossed my mind a while ago, watching Barky. I might be very off here, and I am loathe to say such a thing, but… do you suppose he’s still sniffing the white stuff now and then? Psychologically and behaviourally (not a word, I know…) he acts like that. (delete this please, if you think I’ve gone too far.)
When the gods want to destroy one they once favored, they first make him arrogant. Ancient wisdom. And here we go…
I not only think so, I would bet on it.
self sodomization saves energy. get on the love train BHO! it’s the hit parade of lunatics. lets all show compassion & pick up hitch hikers too! I’d ride my bike to work but I don’t have black sox to go with my white sneaks, & don’t have a job anymore either.
Newt G. looked like he was going to pee himself from holding back the laughter last night on Fox.
Uppity, for some reason I can’t post this at No Quarter. I really think it should be a story, it would help to promote it…
I emailed No Q with this:
I’m sure you know that the much anticipated hard-hitting book will be released today (August 1st): “Obama Nation” by Jerome R. Corsi. As you know, Corsi coauthored the NYT #1 Bestselling book: “Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak out Against John Kerry.” I’m very anxious to read this book since Corsi covers all the issues we PUMAs are aware of (Raila Odinga, Frank Marshall Davis, etc)–we now may have the opportunity of watching all this underground information become very mainstream. BTW: I am reminded of what Hillary said at the PA Debate, how Obama’s associates (or his issues, etc) are “problems” and she’s already been vetted–and that she has baggage but it’s already been rummaged through for YEARS. It’s still a good point. I hope the DNC and the superdelegates are paying attention. AND I hope this book skyrockets.
HERE is a video of the first part interview of Corsi on Hannity & Colmes last night:

[...] Obama: Inflate Your Damned Tires and Everything Will Be Fine [...]
UW: Right you are about Mr. Snuff-It. I wonder how all the elderly black pensioners from whom “community organizers extorted contributions to Obama’s campaign feel about their pitiful few dollars going up his nose.
His parade of “gaffes,”aka disorientation and confusion, is typical “delirium,” the behavior which characterizes the withdrawal stage of drug use. Go back to the inflate-your-tires video clip. Note his confsion–the babbling, followed by the interrogative tone of his voice even though he’s making a declarative statement. Study his disorientation–his inability to focus visually. He is not “making eye-contact” with his audience; he is seeking a visual center of attention. I have noticed this same verbal/visual attention drift in many of his video clips.
Now put the physical syndrome with the inexplicably bizarre nature of his “energy plan,” and hey-presto: sniff-snuff. Interesting that Obama’s drug use is so obviou to us laypersons,but not to the good doctor, Howrd Dean,MD– the only medical professional in the world who doesn’t get it.
Toss in that he has refused to release his medical records. He brought a not from his doctor, nothing more. This NEVER acceptable. There is only one other presidential candidate I have known who refused to release full medical records. Anybody care to guess who that was?????
UW: Exactly! Your kid needs more than a 2-page doctor’s note to get into summer camp. Refusal to provide medical records, legal birth certificate (not a forgery, BoBo), college records, etc, etc, etc: could this Motha be purposely generating a climate of fear in America (you can cut it with a knife) to blame all on McCain as he did on Hillary, only to pour out BoBo’s Messianic Balm to make the nasty feeling go away?
THE COLB ISSUE CONCERNS BOBO’S CONSTITUTIONAL ELIGIBILITY TAO BE PRESIDENT. WHERE THE DEVIL IS THE US ATTORNEY GENERAL? HAS HIS ENTIRE STAFF HAD ITS STRINGS CUT BY THE PUPPET MASTER WHO IS STAGING OBAMA’S PUNCH AND JUDY SHOW?
Well. I don’t think this inflating tires will work for me. I don’t have a car. Gave away my dependable Datsun B210 3 years ago. Did Obama have any other suggestions for non-car owners????
