[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In terms of likely health problems, Obama's smoking is a bigger danger flag than Christie's weight. I don't recall a national discussion about the appropriateness of a smoker occupying the WH.

Warning.  Point out that Obama is a smoker is racist and is in violation of the media responsibility policy.  Please report to your local hope and change center for reeducation.  ;)[/quote]

Ah, right.  Because the "liberal media" didn't report on his occasional smoking.

You know, I'm beginning to understand why right-wing rubes consider the media to be "liberal".  They occasionally cover topics like "weather", "economy", or "the Oscars".  Fox News and the various other propaganda outlets that target the low-information reactionary voter try not to cover any of that stuff unless they can tie it back into the meta-narrative:  how the liberal conspiracy is out to get middle-class white people.

Once you spend years watching that crap, I'm sure it's tempting to watch the centrist, balanced news media and shriek, "Why are they hiding The Truth!?!"  Must be the same dynamic with nutjobs who believe a UFO invasion is imminent.  The aliens must have already taken over the "lamestream media", otherwise they wouldn't be suppressing the important whackjob conspiracy nonsense I crave.

Oh, one last thing:  personally, I've got nothing against obese politcians, and if Christie weren't a disingenuous greasy piece of shit, I might consider voting for him.  I actually really liked Jerry Nadler.  But putting my preferences aside for a moment, Christie is unelectable.  Why you ask?  Because for all the talk that weight-prejudice is some sort of "upper middle-class elite" thing, low-information voters of all socio-economic classes abhor grossly obese figures in the public realm.  Turn on a soap opera.  Watch any Hollywood movie.  How many people as fat as Christie do you see in the role of "leader"?  And I'm not talking about a healthy plutocratic gut--Christie makes Chris Farley look like Antonio Banderas.

Perry may be an ignorant backwoods racist, but Christie's got a serious [url=http://fupahunter.blogspot.com]FUPA[/url] problem.  Which makes his election by America's rube-ocracy vanishingly unlikely.[/quote]
