It’s a Jeep Thing
Clinton: Obama’s Feelings Most Hurt Over Jeep Ad
Bill Clinton revealed at a campaign rally today that President Barack Obama’s feeling were hurt over Mitt Romney’s ad suggesting Jeep might move some of its production facilities overseas:
“I saw the reports of Governor Romney’s latest ad saying that the president had allowed Jeep to move to China,” said Clinton. “And so this morning, before he left Florida and went back to Washington, he said, ‘You know, of all the things Governor Romney has said that probably hurts my feelings the most.’ He said, ‘You know, I never had any money when I was a kid. and the first new car I ever owned I was 30 years old it was a Jeep.’”
As an aside, it’s Interesting that, according an old USA Today report, Obama’s first (used) car was a Ford Granada.
Like many men, President Obama has fond memories of his first car — even if it was a Ford Granada.
“I have to confess; my first car was my grandfather’s car,” Obama told AAA in an interview. “Which was a Ford Granada.”
Then, it appears, Obama owned a red Fiat. “Before returning to Hawaii, Stan bought his grandson a present: a beat-up old red Fiat that they found at a Los Angeles used car lot,” writes David Maraniss in Barack Obama: The Story.
Then, Maraniss details Obama had a Honda Civic. “Before leaving New York, Obama spent two thousand dollars on a blue Honda Civic that he would drive into the heartland to start his new life.”

So at 30 Barry bought his first car, and at 30 Romney could have purchased the company that produced it. Hmm, let me think, who do I want leading this country.

He didn’t have sex with that car, the red Fiat or the Jeep, or the woman Monica.

When Willys-Overland, and Ford (during the war) then later AMC owned Jeep they were great vehicles..(Pre 1979). after that Renault, then Chrysler ruined it.
Today’s Jeep is junk.. poorly assembled, over priced, slapped together by drunk/stoned employees.
and not worth a tinkers damn.
we joke about them at the repair shop with these acronyms:
Jeep – Junk each and Every Part
or
Jeep – Just empty every pocket.

“…and Barry gave that Jeep magical powers. He named it ‘Eugene’. ‘Eugene the Magical Jeep’. And some nights, when no one was looking he let it out in the backyard and let it romp & play. Sometimes he would even let it fly! It was a Magical Jeep, you know.”
Well, it’s just as big a fairytale as Billy Boy tells.
(calling that dorkass ‘Bubba’ is an insult to Bubbas the world over)

My first car was a 1955 OPEL which I bought in Italy from a GI who was mustering out. I paid $500 for it, I travelled all of Europe with it from 1960 to 1964. Great time I had. Damn. The memories. I think I’m going to cry. Now that’s the truth. OBama can’t seem to tell the truth about any fu*king thing. Jeep my ass.

Ya just gotta love the Internet! No stone unturned. Between Barry and Ol’ Joe, there is no telling just how many whoppers they can come up with. I’ll bet even Clinton can take a lesson or two from those hucksters!

Whats this snake in the grass whining about?
He wasn’t saddened when he normalized trade relations with China and gave them preferred trade nation status for campaign money so Chinas kids could be slave labor and decimate the entire global market.
Nor did it sadden him when he single handedly destroyed americas manufacturing base when he used executive rder to ship american jobs overseas.
The only thing that saddens me about this hillbilly sellout is he still lives here and profits from capitalism.

and he probably had the minimum insurance on it, not having any clue that if he wrecked it, he won’t get a brand new car:

This is how dumb the leader of the free world is! He thought that if he carried only liability he would get a free limo one day! uhhh…he was right…and a nice plane…
yeah, and me, I have been paying on my health insurance for 27 years because I knew that I couldn’t get insurance after I got sick, so I invested at 22 years old…I’ve paid in 30K, claimed 3K so far and get cancelled any day now…I guess the lesson is screw personal responsibility, being a reckless dumbass pays off in the end right?
It has worked for Obama…
Can we finally toss this asswipe aside on November 6th…please?
Or whenever he decides the elections can be held after his North East liberal base recovers from Sandy…

Good grief he’s one lying SOB and a dumb a$$ one at that. One simple google search and you know every one did it after seeing this video.
Obama bought the Jeep in 1998 when he was 39 years old. His first car was a Ford Granada, a gift from his grandfather. Grandpa then bought him a red Fiat. His next three cars were a Honda, Nissan and Datsun respectively.
As for the poverty thing, he grew up in relative luxury in Hawaii and attended the best schools money can buy.
…hurt his feelings…what a punk. I can’t wait until we get some real testesterone in the White House and no Michelle Obama doesn’t count.
Is it me or does it seem like that booger on the side of Obama’s face gets larger with each lie? I want to pull it off his face and smack him with it.

He can’t even tell the truth about his first car? That is just sad.
Mine was a gold, Datsun B210 hatchback. The engine was too small for the compartment. You could see to the pavement. When the temp dropped to -17 the whole engine froze up.
Hows come I can remember that but Sir Golfsalot can’t even remember the model?

BTW, did anyone else hear the Dad of Tyrone Woods on Laura Ingraham ths morning? The emotion in his voice describing the encounter with biden talking about his brave sons testicles was very difficult to listen to.
How do people like biden and obama grow up to lead this country?

Moe Tom, Hey Bro, you have Instincts I appreciate. BUT, I just saw this guy on Hannity and I had tears running down my cheek. He is devastated. And his kid was a national treasure that was wasted by the asshole in charge.

Moe, My take is that Mr. Woods in no way wants to be doing what he is doing (especially at this time), but like his Son tolld him:
“If not me, who will..?”

Menderman. His kid was a adrenaline junkie and who isn’t given the opportunity. He was doing what he was trained to do, what he lived to do, and everything was working out well until Berry fucked him. The kid had enough Balls to break rank and go help. Awesome man.

What signifies here is that Chrysler Corp is doing a blatant cost comparison between what it cost them to make Jeeps here versus China. When the results are in, watch them move the entire ops to China. Detroit and all those jobs buhbye….

Well, it just goes to show the mentality of people in Politics (and anybody anymore really), that it’s no big deal to slander or lie and as long as it’s funny or vilifies someone that people think they should hate, it is an acceptable thing to do.
