How could Obama know all about what Kanye West did on TV, yet have no idea 70k protesters were marching in DC?
Obama knew enough about Kanye West to call him a “Jack***”, yet he was apparently clueless to the tens of thousands of protesters that marched on Washington on 9.12.
Is he completely incompetent, or is he just lying?

Who is Kanye West, and why would I even care?
November 21st, 2009 at 7:00 pm
he calls it selective reasoning
November 21st, 2009 at 7:52 pm
He lies

Oh he definitely knew about the protest. That had been scheduled since at least April. But a couple of weeks ago he conveniently scheduled a trip to Minnesota to avoid the protest.

Of course he knew about the protesters, but by saying publicly that he knew about them, then he also admits that he is ignoring the voice of the American people because his ideology hasn’t been swayed. Funny how like many of the left in this generation, he is drawn to the stars and music more than history and our country.

OR sit in a church for 20 years and not know what his pastor was saying-
He is just as J. Wilson said–Lies!
November 21st, 2009 at 10:11 pm
the media denies anything they don’t want to talk about.
November 21st, 2009 at 10:53 pm
Yes, he is completely incompetent and lying.
November 21st, 2009 at 11:14 pm
He knew.
November 22nd, 2009 at 12:10 am
The Kanye thing is way more relevant than 70k of the nation’s dullest gathering up for some sort of orgy of stupidity.
November 22nd, 2009 at 12:26 am
70,000 people teabaggin’ each other isn’t much to worry about
November 22nd, 2009 at 1:04 am
He knew he flew over it on his way to Minneapolis to speak at a Pro-Reform rally.
He is not unaware, he is ducking and dodging as much as he can to try and push things through before the shift in Congress in 2010.

Where do you get the idea that the President was unaware of the thousands of fascists who descended on Washington last week? 70K? Gee, at least that’s down from the 2 million figure you people were claiming, and it’s still probably double the actual number.
BTW, did you listen to the President’s speech in Minnesota about health care, or are you completely unconcerned with the facts?
November 22nd, 2009 at 1:53 am
Tens of thousands is a little short on the count
may have been up to 2 million.
November 22nd, 2009 at 2:53 am
Reports are that there were lots more than 70,000 people at the protest. As far as obama, he knew, he just didn’t want to deal with it so he went out of town for the day.

Obama is an Incompetent Liar.
But His lies work very well for Him. So far………
November 22nd, 2009 at 4:06 am
He was actually doing an interview and informed of the Kanye West ordeal and what he said was off the record.
And of course he knows about the protesters….People seem to forget that the President gets to choose what he tells us he does or doesn’t know is going on, not only is it for his own privacy, our safety and sometimes it’s just not worth giving a comment on…
November 22nd, 2009 at 4:37 am
Clearly he was lying about not knowing about the protesters, if he didn’t know about them then he is even more clueless than I thought..
November 22nd, 2009 at 5:13 am
Since we can’t assume to know what is in the heart or mind of Obama, we can’t say he was lying. Therefore, he must be completely incompetent.
November 22nd, 2009 at 6:02 am
he watches msnbc
November 22nd, 2009 at 6:49 am
he knew there were 75k protesters, he just ignored them like everybody else. Well, except for clusterfox news, they gave this pimple-of-a-protest full coverage.
November 22nd, 2009 at 7:30 am
President Obama was well aware of the protesters.
If only the PROTESTERS knew what they were protesting about!
Everyone interviewed by the media had a different answer, and some made absolutely no sense at all.
I loved the sign that said: Obama roons edukashun!
November 22nd, 2009 at 7:44 am
You are correct in the assumption that he is a liar.
Proven once again.
The only people I know that are more ignorant than 0bama are his followers,,,,atleast he gets something from the lies.
November 22nd, 2009 at 7:57 am
he knew there were marchers that is why liberals had there own marchers with government printed signs and bull horns to over shout the Americans
November 22nd, 2009 at 8:35 am
He lie.
November 22nd, 2009 at 9:35 am
Obama didn’t want his kids to see all the protesters protesting him, plus he’s narcissist, a coward, a traitor, and a pathological liar, BEWARE!!
November 22nd, 2009 at 10:07 am
Maybe if the 70K actually knew what they were protesting instead of yelling slogans and words they understand not, they would have been more relevant.
November 22nd, 2009 at 10:45 am
Politicians see what they want to see
hear what the want to hear
and then do what THEY want to do……
If anyone thinks they work for us……their delusional.
November 22nd, 2009 at 11:14 am
incompetent how about that time when we got bombed from the middle east? And the country pussy out to attack. Why Beach about something minor.
November 22nd, 2009 at 11:35 am
It was a small, insignificant protest despite press releases being sent to the European media stating there were more than a million. Plus everyday people are more concerned with West than some tea bagger from Maryland.
November 22nd, 2009 at 11:58 am
yet another lie coming from his mouth. he is trying to marginalize those people. his dem congress will suffer come 2010.
November 22nd, 2009 at 12:01 pm
Maybe he doesn’t give a damn about the protesters.
November 22nd, 2009 at 12:17 pm
because he is interested more about what is going on on mtv than real world issues.
November 22nd, 2009 at 1:11 pm
Just because he ignored them doesn’t mean he didn’t know they were there. He has more important work than respond to whack jobs.
November 22nd, 2009 at 1:42 pm
What makes you think he wasn’t aware of the few thousand protesters back in Washington? Don’t you think he reads the papers?
