Actually, I have to agree that this is a little childish and should be beneath the campaign.

hold on trigger Barack the magic negro came from a lib columnist in the LA times. However if you read the trash you digest you think Limbaugh came up with it. Funny thing is I remember listening the day the column came out and Rush said the LIB's will blame him for it. there's the link if you dare read some truth.

Barack the Magic Negro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

then for a good laugh here is the song that Paul Shanklin wrote.

Enough deflection. To continue to stand by, and accept a sitting President of the United States to continue to lower the standards of the highest office in our world, is rather low and pathetic. Can he not heed his own damn words? Or at the very least, heed common sense and decency and run an honorable campaign?

Why do you people who continue to support him, continue to accept this type of petty stupid crap from him? Do you yourselves have no standards for what you expect from a POTUS? Apparently not. POTUS gets a bj in the office by an intern didnt seem to bother most of you, so I guess this type of childish crap wont either.

OMG A PRESIDENT WITH A SENSE OF HUMOUR THE WORLD IS GONNA ENDDDDDDDDDDD

It's a political statement on Romney's grasp of foreign affairs--the dunce cap is a map of the world. You guys sure are thin-skinned. You've heard the saying, politics ain't beanbag.

you arent getting it. Its one thing after another. Its not JUST this picture. Its all that has been going on from his campaign, especially recently. Instead of focusing on and actually talking about the problems we face, or talking about Benghazi even, he has continued to outright lie about his opponent, curse towards his opponent, and do childish things like this demeaning his opponent and the Office.

How do you think this sort of stuff looks to people who are undecided or Independent? Sure, they may never see or hear some of it, but some of us are making sure we get it out to them so they do. It will make it easier for them to make up their minds if they see a President act like this.

Oh, Im sure it would have went over real well had Romney:

During debate Lie about opponents editorial and then say, check the record, check the record. Then get called out for the lie but continue spouting it on the campaign trail to his mindless supporters.

Do an interview you know people will see, and call Obama a Bull****ter.

Have a picture of Obama in a dunce cap.

You know damn well how that would have been looked at. You know damn well how the news media would have handled that. It would have been on tv and in the papers for a week about how awful and racist and disrespectful Romney is.

But since its actually Obama doing this, it is perfectly fine to you and the media.

Romney lied every time he opened his mouth in that last debate, denying all of his previous positions. The president called him out on it--good for him. If this is what you consider over the top, you are either new to politics or much too delicate to withstand the rough and tumble world of national elections. This is mild in light of many things that have been said and spread around the web about the president for the last four years. Your outrage is laughable.
