The Obama book scandal

[Garion_55]

So I just started doing a little digging around and here is what we know so far...

It appears that Obama held some secret behind closed door meetings with some book publishers to talk about perhaps publishing a book. Eventually one of the publishers agreed to the deal and actually went ahead and published it.


Details are still a little sketchy as this is a breaking story but I will keep digging around and see what else I can come up with.

[Drunken Irishman]

1. Scandalous lol

[Wounded Bear]

2. Did he wear a tan suit to the meetings?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[Skittles]

6. maybe it was MOM JEANS

[questionseverything]

14. i will bet bare arms are shown in the book!

[Captain Zero]

19. oh yeah, dad jeans and a tan CORDUROY sport coat.

That has to be why he's in trouble.

[True Blue American]

28. And a Pink carnation?:)

[Danascot]

41. Without a flag pin!

The Horror!

[applegrove]

3. Apparently this is a pattern. He even went to Kenya in one book. Also

people who will partake 'read' a secret code called 'english'.

[Hekate]

16. He uses compound sentences and big words, too. Why does he hate 'Murika?

[dawg day]

4. and he and his wife collaborated to be super-popular and beloved-

Those miscreants!
Making the US citizens and people around the world love them for their goodness and kindness and adorableness!

It has to be a crime!

[PatrickforO]

5. Oh, the humanity!

Well, I guess we need to forget all about Trump and focus on this!

[flor-de-jasmim]

27. I can't resist : T doesn't need humanity, he's got Hannity!

[True Blue American]

42. Good one.:)

[muriel_volestrangler]

7. Books are highly suspicious things. That's why Trump never touches one.

All those words, in the right order, and used correctly. Page after page. That's just unnatural. Real Americans can't write like that, let alone read it. Writing a book is cultural Marxism gone mad. Some people are saying Das Kapital was a book.

[applegrove]

17. Socialism!!!

[smirkymonkey]

8. That sneaky bastard!

How dare he!

[Garion_55]

11. We may need to impeach him

I mean I understand he's no longer in office but I don't think that really matters to Republicans

[smirkymonkey]

13. Yeah, and they never did find out where he was on 9/11

Probably playing golf or something. IMPEACH!

[sandensea]

18. In Kenya

Reading (ohmygosh) a book!

[smirkymonkey]

21. In a tan suit, eating a burger with Grey Poupon on it!

Unforgivable!

[sandensea]

23. With his gay Muslim lover, of course.

Oh, wait. He had him murdered!

Sneaky dog! Obama thinks of everything.

[moose65]

47. Haha

Was that before or after he went back in time to post a fake birth announcement in the Honolulu paper?? 🙄

[BootinUp]

9. Holy conspiracies in my mind Batman.

[crazytown]

10. Obama is engaged in a cover up

by writing it down in a book.

[AJT]

12. People are saying the meeting was in the basement of a pizza parlor.

[pazzyanne]

22. A pizza parlor that didn't have a basement - LOL

[Hekate]

15. You seriously need the sarcasm thingy

People are way too wound up to take a joke just now

[Cirque du So-What]

40. I got busted on the unacknowledged sarcasm rap yesterday

It's like addressing a roomful of Sheldon Coopers.

[mr_lebowski]

20. E'erone knows that books & learnin' are The Devil's Handiwork .. 'cept for the Bible, a'course! (nt)

[onetexan]

24. And even then, if they could read the bible properly

They'd know they elected an orange idol whom they think is their savior.

[silentEcho]

25. lol

[Aussie105]

26. A man does something interesting

and writes a book about it?

Damn, that is so . . . . words fail me!

Where is the humanity, the respect for civilized behaviour, the respect for those mentioned in the book, in all this?
Very underhanded, I must say! (yes, sarcasm . . . do I need to include the sarcasm smily?)

Reading between the lines, Donald is running out of distractions! (aka 'Look! Squirrel!')

Honestly, someone should write a book about Trump's distraction attempts, and what each is meant to distract from. I'd read it, because I've lost track.

[True Blue American]

31. I tell ya

Jest sittin’ here awaitin’ the Trump bokk! All three words, make Obama look like a piker because it will have Hillary’s emails in it.

[Vinca]

29. And I bet he was wearing that tan suit and spreading Dijon mustard on a burger at the same time.

This might be the end of civilization as we know it.

[True Blue American]

32. Did Obama

Really eat onions on his hamberder or is that just a nasty rumor?

[Vinca]

33. Is he a Commie pinko secret Kenyan Muslim? Of course he did.

[Arkansas Granny]

37. I heard that he spread the mustard with a golf club.

[Tech]

43. Didn't he have arugula on the berger?

[madaboutharry]

30. The real scandal is this,

he wrote it himself without a ghostwriter.

[True Blue American]

38. No!

Is Obama really that smart? He shouda hired Trump’s ghost writer. Then he could go on the TV and tell people how dumb he is!

[DeminPennswoods]

34. It's the 4TH time he's done it!

And he keeps getting away with it!

[CatMor]

35. Will he write about ....

his spying through the White House microwaves, the disastrous Bowling Green Massacre and his latest diabolical plot to make everyone in the west wing of the WH either too hot or too cold. All must be investigated along with his book deal.

[Timmygoat]

36. Does anyone think

That draft dodger donnie ever read a book?

[True Blue American]

39. Well, Ivanka

Did say he had a book of Hitler speeches next to his bed. Thus the clenched fist.

And ven der Fueher says ve ist der Master Race, den ve Heil, Heil ftFt, right in der Fuehers face!
How many here remember that Homer and Jethro song?

[Hekate]

50. I remember that line from a Loony Tunes cartoon: we used to get recycled WWII cartoons after school

...in the 1950s. Did not know it was a stand-alone song. Thanks for the memories.

Just a quibble: Ivanka means "Little Ivana."

Ivana, who I think of as Mother of the Spawn, she who used to call him The Donald, would have been the one who knew about the book.

[muriel_volestrangler]

49. I'd forgotten the microwaves. Jesus, Conway will say absolutely anything, won't she?

Even Pompeo took the piss out of that.

[jcgoldie]

44. It gets worse...

These shady publishers took him to lunch and he reached under the sneeze guard at the buffet to grab some potatoes!

[kentuck]

45. If it's what it sounds like, I love it!

Can we get a secret meeting with the Russians to discuss it?

[edhopper]

46. I think the real scandal here

is that he actually wrote his own book.

Real men get people to write their books for them.

[HipChick]

48. Found it! It's the timing!..

It's being released around the election!...

[True Blue American]

53. Oooh!

That will smart if Obama gives facts! No wonder Trump is hopped up on rage.

[underthematrix]

51. This is not funny. I consider this post racist because you're spreading #TraitorTrump's

hatred and racism toward President Obama. I have never understood why people think these kind of posts are helpful. They're not funny. They're vile.

[lunatica]

52. Trump doing his bit to help President Obama's book sales.

Go ahead Donald. Have another conniption fit!

[True Blue American]

54. That book will be all over cable news

Reminding people just how brilliant and well like President Obama is.

Gotta love it!

[lunatica]

55. I bet it sells as much as Michelle's book did

I wonder if he’ll do the book tours. If he does he’ll be constantly in the news because he’ll probably break all kinds of attendance records. Trump will have fits!

[True Blue American]

56. Colbert on Trump

Worst performance.
