President Walking Eagle

[skyrider 0]

President BARACK OBAMA was invited to address a major gathering of the American Indian Nation two weeks ago in upstate New York.

He spoke for almost an hour about his plans for increasing every Native American’s present standard of living. He referred to his time as a U.S. Senator and how he had voted for every Native American issue that came to the floor of the Senate.

Although President Obama was vague about the details of his plans, he seemed most enthusiastic and spoke eloquently about his ideas for helping his “red sisters and brothers.”

At the conclusion of his speech, the Tribes presented Obama with a plaque inscribed with his new Indian name, “Walking Eagle.” The proud President then departed in his motorcade to a fundraiser, waving to the crowds.

A news reporter later asked the group of chiefs how they came to select the new name they had given to the President.

They explained that “Walking Eagle” is the name given to a bird so full of crap it can no longer fly.

So, let's see how many people we can find this "joke" has been applied to;

Hillary - http://www.catsprn.com/walking_eagle.htm
Kerry - http://www.snopes.com/politics/kerry/eagle.asp
Bush - Also the same reference as Kerry.
Variations on the theme applied to NASA and Morris Udall as far back as 1960.

Hmmm. Why can't these folks write their own jokes?

Yet another plagiarized piece of crap from off the internet. This has been floating around since the 1960's, and has been applied to about every prominent politician. Funny when told as a joke, less so when the gullible post it without attribution, as if it was their own writing.

Hint: Snopes is your friend.

I'm glad you finally have come around and agree GWB was full of shit.

Are you saying that even the most simple comprehension is difficult for you, or is it that you consider yourself so much better than everyone else that the effort is beneath you?

I'm saying Rushmc's butchering of the English language is frequently beyond comprehension. His sentences frequently can be interpreted multiple ways due to his lack of punctuation and poor choice of words.

It's not anyone's fault except his.

Any person would be perfectly justified in asking for clarification.

Ok - I can see where the punctuation thing is problematic. But I bet if you really tried, you could probably do it.

Thanks for the clarification.

So, you think that even though this joke dates back in variations 50 years ago, it's "apropos" "today" to Obama even though it never happened.

Do you feel the same way about the application to GWB? Was that "apropos"?

GWB was an inarticualate president that made just as many mistakes as Obama will.

Is that better for your sense of justification?

I know your man is floundering badly but you dont have to let it get you down. He will be powerless come Nov and you can blame it all on the R's again

Your can't say your man when referring to Obama!

That's racism towards his white half.

That's racism against his white half as it's like calling him "the man."
