Prince Philip As Seen By The World

In a follow up to a goofy post I wrote earlier it seems that Prince Philip made an off the wall comment to President Obama when he first visited the White House;

[The] President told the Royals: “I had breakfast with the Prime Minister, I had meetings with the Chinese, the Russians, David Cameron [the Conservative Prime Minister]…

…

A guffawing Prince Philip then blurted out: “Can you tell the difference between them?”

I like how Jack & Jill Politics interpreted the gaffe;

It’s interesting because it’s offensive on several different levels. For those who don’t know, David Cameron is the leader of the conservative opposition in the UK. But apparently Prince Phillip also implies in his remarks that Cameron a member of the Conservative Party, mind you and therefore right wing is a communist like the Russians and Chinese. And that Barack Obama might be too stupid to tell them apart. Because Barack Obama is also a communist, right?

With my favorite part:

You have to hand it to Prince Phillip — a barb that sophisticated, offensive and condescending to so many millions of people including Russia, China, America and UK Tories/conservatives worldwide takes a lifetime to perfect. Well done, as they’d say here in the UK!

And that’s what I’ve been saying all along. Sophisticated troll is sophisticated. He’s good, has a real zing sense of humor and though you may not like his ethnic jokes… they are damn good. This one isn’t of the best in my other post, but as they pointed out, he’s a pro – not a noob at this.

Ana Marie Cox and Jason Linkins annotate White House images taken by Pete Souza – Link at the bottom, hilarious.

We’re gonna leave the old man alone. He’s a hero.

But fuck this guy.

I just saw, in southwest Ohio, a commercial funded by The National Republican Trust PAC that finally broke the silence in the national campaign about the “relationship” between Rev. Wright’s comments and Obama’s views on how to run the country. It was pretty fiery, and not by McCain.

How tricky it is. The night before the election and on in the swing states. Sounds like people are getting scared.

Update: It’s running a lot now and it worries me because people are dumb.

Click here to see Obama speak about the economy and the mortgage crisis.

As I said there was not a let down face in the place. At least one of the campaigns provided a clear message in Cincinnati today, Palin just attacked.

The masses are getting sweaty and anxious to see the main event. I believe the blip on stage is Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory. He was late getting in from Dayton, Ohio – but he didn’t dissapoint.
Oddly he never said anything about raising my taxes… Nothing.

My take on the debate is this; Barak Obama has the same smile as Will Smith. How can you not win an election if you look like Will Smith? I could watch any movie with Will Smith, therefore I’ll be happy to have Obama as President for at least four years.

Sorry to get soooo political.
