First of all this article is shocking because it originated from the Associated Press, typically an Obama-friendly source. Second it's sad that we aren't going to hear about this from the news channels. God forbid the people are aware of the President's deceit. Unless it's Bush who "lied" of course.
I think it is an excellent portrait but I do not think it has stopped growing?
Your thoughts?

It was a pic of him in the style of the Norman Rockwell painting his own portrait...have you see it, the one where he has a mirror propped up next to his easal...the portrait in the pic I wanted to post is of Jesus...and Obama's painting it as a self portrait. Kinda lost it's funniness now. What drama! I'm sorry if I kept it going...I just feel people get away with this way to much without ever having to be accountable. They call concerned citizens horrible names...make us out to be EVIL and then run hide and snicker. They are doing to us, what they claim to not like us doing to Obama...and it's infuriating at times.

What's that I hear? The echoing call of "racism" whispering through mylot politics. Oh no, they put a Pinocchio nose on Obama! Must be racism. Someone criticized Obama. Gotta be racism. Someone voted against Obama. That's racist.
Blah, blah, blah.
If Obama was white all you Obama supporters screaming racism would be laughing. Better check the length of your own noses.

It seems that a couple of the responders have ignored the myLot guidelines: Don't-•Post to “flame” other users! Being mean to others is just not fun. Anything derogatory that is directed at a myLot user is strictly prohibited. Just be nice and have fun!
It is very obvious to me that some responses and comments accusing everyone else on this discussion of being racists is intentionally flaming.

Exactly. I have no problem with those who disagree with me. Another mylotter and I have disagreed numerous times but she's never once called me names and has even jumped on those who have. We can disagree without being disagreeable.

I had no problem with you. You might consider it racial, that's fine and your right to do so. Another poster out and out called someone a racist. That's not acceptable.

Ok, now can we have a little more peace and civility in this discussion folks? Lets debate this one on an intelectual levela and argue it on it's own merrits rather than basless acuations and snide comments back. This is a discussion forum, not a boxing ring or congress, we are better than that.

I thought by posting the two images of McCain and Bush both being portrayed as Pinocchio would deflate the whole nasty racist aspect of my discussion. However I see that the two main character's responses have been deleted. This whole racist fiasco has left such a nasty taste in my mouth I shall just stop posting anything about Obummer for a while.

Yes, I see the mylot fairies did their magic. Nice to see someone's manning the ship.
That fact is Obama has lied, made excuses, and denied. He's done in from the start. They want us to be respectable but Obama needs to earn that respect. As far as I've seen he hasn't.

I wonder how big it will be in four years. LOL I am surprised that this was from the Associated Press as well. I think it took Saturday Night Live's satire to break open things though.

Wow, if this came from the AP, maybe it's a sign that the so called "main stream" media are finally waking up to the fact that he is a politician just like all the rest and that it's still business as usual in Washington, partisan politics, backroom deals, payoffs and corruption. He's nothing new and certainly not the savior they all thought he was. He's broken so many of his campaign promises already, it's hard to imagine what he will do for the rest of his term.

That's a good portrait of Obama but they should also Put on on Joe Biden cause he always is checking his nose to see if it's growing......I think he will need a prop to carry it around if he doesn't stop lying.......
I'm sure surprised at the Associated Press cause that is Obama news...before long the birds can use it for a roost to rest on.......

I think that the healthcare issue needs to be fair and that it is a crisis that has cost many lives. My state is one of the worst states without healthcare. This is no time for any lies, and certainly think that Dr. oz should really be commended for his free healthfairs and his concern for people. I would like to see his attitude adapted in Washington by all the politicians.@whiteheather39 (24403)

Dr. Oz is my hero. Ever since he first appeared on the Oprah show I have tried to watch his every appearance. I am so glad he now has his own show. This is one doctor I do trust and take a lot of his advice to heart,

What a wonderful country we would live in if all politician stopped lying. Sadly I think that the smoother you can lie is one of the main qualification requirements of politicians.
