Another One Under The Bus
Posted on June 12th, 2008 at 10:53 am by Cordeiro
It’s getting really crowded under the Obama For America Campaign Bus. Let’s review for a minute those campaign staffers, life-long associates, and mentors who have been summarily tossed out the front door and under the wheels of Team Obama.
First we have Granny. She was tossed under the bus during Obama’s not quite swoon inducing race speech. Nothing personal, Granny. Just politics.
Also wrapped around the axel of the Obamamobile you’ll find Obama’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright. So much for Obama not being able to disown someone so close to him. Someplace in the airbrake assembly you’ll also find the congregation of Trinity United Church of Christ. Father Michael Pfleger’s location is as yet undetermined, but is alleged to be someplace near the drive shaft.
Yesterday that crowd was joined by yet another Obama associate – the man Obama (not-quite) hired to vet his list of Veep choices – James Johnson. You see, Obama realized (a bit too late) he couldn’t rail against greedy CEOs whilst (not really) employing a minion of a greedy CEO.
I’m sure in all the confusion I’ve missed one or two people or groups which might have been hurled from the Team Obama bus. As of this writing, another member of Obama’s VP vetting team is dangerously close to the front door. Eric Holder, the architect of Bill Clinton’s pardon for fugitive financier and tax cheat Marc Rich, is the one most likely to next be hurled under the oversized tires. Maybe he’ll manage to hold on to a side rail or bumper.
Kind of makes you wonder if people on the Obama Bus even bother to listen to the disembodied voice warning them to “Please stand clear of the door…”
Update: Rick Moran and I evidently think alike. Seriously, Rick, I didn’t read your post before writing my own. Looks like I missed a few people sailing out the bus door - namely Samantha Powers, Austan Goolsbee, and William Ayers. Nobody’s perfect.

Cordiero, just curious, is this the bus the Democrats are going to take to the diner in Abilene?
Actually the vehicle in the Abilene story was a rusty old Studebaker, but as long as the bus has no air conditioning and an overflowing toilet, it would work for the trip.
Don’t forget the Chicago Democratic primary candidates that Obama got thrown off the ballot just so he had no opposition.
I don’t think Barrack stood up enough for his mother.
People are calling her a “naive lefty” for her professional and personal actions, but Barrack is proof that she was more visionary than naive.
Even if she supported communism, her intentions are good and many of her principles were valid.
The wheels on the bus go round and round…
Thats a pretty big bus,
The Gas mileage on the bus goes down and down, down and down, down and down. The gas mileage on the bus goes down and down, all the way to Washington.
The Prices at the pump go up and up, up and up, up and up, the prices at the pump go up and up, all the way to Washington.
Donations turn into paying for Gasoline for Obamas Bus, which probably has worse mileage than a SUV
The bus goes over Bumps and Bumps, Bumps and Bumps, bumps and bumps. I wonder if that has to do with all those people Obama threw under the bus?
LOL…he tossed his grandmother under the bus when the question of his black authenticity came up.
He had a whole arsenal of ways to promote his blackness…and he chose to bash his granny. And I thought McCain was a grumpy SOB.
Nice picture Cordeiro. Looks like there’s plenty of room under there.
I wonder if anybody has a picture of the Clinton bus. I think it’s built by Caterpillar.
Thats not the first time. I remeber in Superman II when General Zod threw Superman under the bus as well.

Check out this great scene of General Zod-Obama, Michelle, and Secretary of State Kerry arriving to the Whitehouse.

Secretary of State Kerry…I just threw up a little in my mouth!
Sorry Gary. He was the first democrat I could think of who big enough and dumb enough to be Non, the brainless sidekick to General Obama-Zod.
