The Grand Flying Ego that is Obama.

August 4, 2008 Aurvant 1 comment

Generally the first word that comes to mind when I think of Obama is “pompous” and when the news hit that the press was showing pictures of Obama’s personal candidate plane he did not disappoint on the arrogance. Considering that he already has his name etched in to his own personal seat with the words “President” engraved just under it I would think that he’s going to feel a bit embarassed if he loses this race.

However, there is an upside to this over abundance of materialism that Obama is investing it, and it stems from the fact that the more he’s spending on exhuberent items such as the plane in question it keeps him from making ridiculous and ignorant commercials like this one.

The funny thing is that Obama pretty much just proves his ignorance right there. He claims that the McCain campaign has received over 2 million dollars in contributions from “Big Oil” except that they leave out the detail that the information they are giving is impossible. Why? Because corporations cant give campaign contributions. Then Obama pretty much excludes the fact that he’s got Oil executives bundling up money for his own campaign upwards towards the six figure area.

Obama is such a hypocrite. Although I do find one thing funny about the page escribing Obama’s private jet for his campaign. Considering that Obama has been claiming lately that we could avoid drilling completely just by “inflating our tires” and how completely aggressive he’s been on attacking oil companies I find it hilarious that the story describing his posh jet was presented by, you guessed it, ExxonMobil.

Irony!
