'Creeps for Obama.'
The leftist media continues to lift rocks for the Obama campaign in search of whatever may crawl out and endorse the foundering President. He surely needs help. Abandoning the pandering President are Catholics, women, southern Democrats, Jews and the young. The latest in a series of crack-pots, anti-Semites and racialists to endorse Obama is Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine.
What a classy guy to have in your corner! He does rather epitomize the Obama base, Flynt being anti-religion and one of the original 70's promulgators of the let-it-all-hang-out philosophy of the left, Flynt is lavish in his praise of B.O. in this fawning interview for Vice magazine:
I think President Obama has over-performed...I think he has done a marvelous job.
This brilliant logic is displayed throughout the interview. Flynt waxes nostalgic for the camaraderie of the peep-shows he ran in Ohio in the 70's, describes how he was inspired by his role model, JFK, and claims that the charge that his low-rent magazine exploits women is no more true than that Sports Illustrated exploits sports.
Obama should thank his lucky stars that Larry Flynt was cured when he had a "profoundly religious experience" years ago. Rather than seeking out a minister or priest to help him understand his potential enlightenment, he found some sort of New Age quack who showed him that religious experiences where the result of an "iodine deficiency."
When November rolls around and Obama has to find something to blame his electoral defeat on, he can always claim there was a super-abundance of iodine in the water in California, New York and Massachusetts. Meanwhile we can add Larry Flynt to the rolls at "Creeps for Obama."
