David Axelrod: Obama's Last Push 'Coming From His Loins'

[kpete]

Source: Huffington Post

"I've known him for 20 years. We've worked closely for 10 years. I've never seen him more exhilarated than he is right now. He believes in what he's doing. He believes in what he's fighting for," Axelrod said.

"You know, you can see in the speech that he's delivering that he, you know, that he, this is coming from his loins," Axelrod said.

The reporters gathered around Axelrod tittered, and he was visibly thrown off balance for a moment. He tried to recover quickly by joking about the comment.

"And uh -- I just wanted to say loins. I wanted to see if I could get loins in the story," he said.

1. Loins huh? That's one you don't hear often.

[Odin2005]

54. Except in trashy romance novels.

[polichick]

55. Along with "heaving bosoms."

[NRaleighLiberal]

2. .

[KoKo]

34. "Girding Loins" in case something pops out? Or defending "Private Parts" from Bain Capital?

ayyyyyyyyyyyy...Not so good what Axelrod said...methinks...but, it will get traction.

[truthisfreedom]

3. He meant Obama's last THRUST was coming from his loins.

Bwahahahahaha.

[Buddaman]

8. !!!!!!

[msanthrope]

20. "Some have greatness thrust upon them." nt

[KoKo]

36. Axelrod was lauding Obama's BIG DICK? Is that what you are saying?

DU has sunk to a new low level with that one. But, I give you credit for "VIAGRA" promotion.

[LisaL]

4. What?

[Buddaman]

5. It's OK Dave.....We're cool.

Nice save tho'......

[KoKo]

6. WHAT???

from his "loins?"

Who is going to get excited about this Biblical Reference? Not Me! It's Old Testament.

Has Axelrod lost his mind thinking this will appeal to the RW Xtians in my area of the country?

[Frustratedlady]

7. The freepers will love that opening...no pun intended. eom

[KoKo]

38. You think so? You know less about those evil people than I do who lives amongst them...then..

You really need to look at how they triumph and how they've managed to get our newest immigrants into their RW FOLD to say what you just did.

But..maybe I misread you...and if I did...apologize for snarking with you.

[Frustratedlady]

78. No, I was saying that the RW will grab any "opening" and turn it into something to do with sex.

I figured they would turn "loin" into something tittilating to their masses. They rarely miss a chance.

Snark? I should think.

[KoKo]

9. Meaning Obama get's a "Hard On" from Campaigning?

Well...I wish Axelrod had put it more delicately..........

[bluemarkers]

11. not a visual

I need .... as much as I like Obama!

[KoKo]

45. I kind of got an "UGH" factor with Axelrod saying this...but...maybe

"the handlers" told Axelrod that it would get the RW voting for Obama and would help him with the Catholic Fence Sitters.

What do "I Know?" I just a lowly voter and not clued into Mega Watt "Campaign Strategy" and so I "KNOW NOTHING!"

[mac56]

10. oh please

Oops.

[Zen Democrat]

12. Thanks David Axelrod. I love the visuals I'm getting.

[young but wise]

15. +1

[flamingdem]

31. It's the last thrust of the campaign! n/t

[tanyev]

13. That's going to get Limbaugh all stirred up.

[crunch60]

19. Limpdick hasn't had a surge from his loins in such a long time, he's jealous of Obama.

[central scrutinizer]

21. only Viagra-induced ones

[speedoo]

14. Obama's dislike for Romney is fueling it in no small part.

Loins, heart, gut, whatever.

He wants to bury Romney and everything he stands for.

[kkerr]

16. Ewww.....

[progressivebydesign]

29. Eww? you find that distasteful? because many of us got a Chris Matthews leg tingle

to each his own.

Our President is smokin' hot, in case you haven't noticed/

[Voice for Peace]

17. maybe they play the same game as the DJ's on Pirate Radio

if you saw that movie -- every day the DJ's would be given
a word they had to somehow work into their show.. this
reminds me of that.

[msanthrope]

18. "Gird your loins, Will." I said it to Will Pitt not too long ago......

[Harriety]

22. ....for the times they are a changin'

[JB126]

23. Loins... makes my naughty parts

all engorged and tingly!

[JanetLovesObama]

24. OMG !

Those "loins" of his will work for me any dayor night. (But I wouldn't. I love Michelle too much!) Still love the thought though.

[BouzoukiKing]

25. That fits with my take on Axelrod's...

...sense of humor.

Basically: "Rmoney - you're fucked."

[bluestateguy]

26. As long as you don't say that about Clinton

then I guess the point is well taken.

[JB126]

33. Now that's funny!!!!

[trailmonkee]

27. Michele and he are discussing that in this GIf as well

sorry

[progressivebydesign]

28. Oh dear, I believe I am swooning. n/t

[flamingdem]

30. Ax is getting punchy!

[Cha]

35. That's what I'm taking away from this, too, flamingdem..

[flamingdem]

37. I am looking forward to the next four years, the Obama

team has good lines, they've been holding back in the crazy political climate!

[JudyM]

46. 'zactly!! me too. they're gonna be on a roll. n/t

[atufal]

32. LMAO! Getting cocky aren't they? Nt

[renate]

57. oh dear

[KoKo]

39. Was Axelrod sending Message to the BIBLICAL amongst us? Was it a CODE that only

"Saint Axelrod" can get away with at the last minute that he would portray Obama this way?

It's really REACHING...imho...that he would do this.

[flamingdem]

41. Loins is the new "reaching"?

It's all a code for sure..

[TwilightGardener]

44. The fu-heck?

[Enrique]

40. mmmmmmm, loins...

[flamingdem]

42. So human loins are a little more tingly than cow loins?

This is very perplexing

[olddad56]

43. I thought the loins were in the zoo. Oh, never mind?

[JudyM]

47. Roaring with delight, those loins. n/t

[LadyHawkAZ]

48. TTIWWP

[rury]

79. That's what I'm talkin' about, LadyHawkAZ....that gorgeous picture is worth a million,

not a thousand words.

[rury]

49. In addition to being a great president, Barack Obama is a handsome

and sexy man.
So I like the reference to his loins.
Seriously.

[pegasis]

51. Mmmm Hmmm, Yes Lawd

[goclark]

62. Bet the First Lady thinks he is sexy too!

[pegasis]

50. In the Lincoln Bedroom,

with Michelle - he and his loins will be occupying for 4 MORE YEARS.
Now what sort of "condition" does that put Mitt in?

[99th_Monkey]

52. If Tweety can have a "tingle down his leg"

Obama gets a pass on the "loins" thang.

[Odin2005]

53. OK, that's just wrong!

[GeorgeGist]

56. Oh FFS ..

that's so lame.

[Politicub]

58. LOL! You don't hear the word loins every day.

[lastlib]

59. He's channeling Jill Biden.....He's seen obama up close.....

[gkhouston]

74. Sounded more like his was channeling Joe Biden...

you know the President's gonna rib him about that one for years.

[demgrrrll]

60. I think it is as funny s hell. Love it.

[marshall]

61. Watch for Lena Denham's follow up video

Clever girl will come up with something witty.

[AtomicKitten]

63. That's hot.

[budkin]

64. NO MORALS!!!

NO FAMILY VALUES!!!!!

[patrice]

65. I like that word better than a phony parachute halter enhanced "moose knuckle".

[patrice]

66. But, you know, that's gonna FREAK some reich-wingers completely out. We're going to be scraping them

off of over-passes and outdoor advertising and such.

[demgrrrll]

67. If Romney can go on Kelly Ripa and say I wear as little as possible to bed Axelrod can say loins.

[patrice]

71. !!!!!!!!!!!!! AAaaarrrrrrgggghhhh! That dessicated, bare, papery, white, stick body and that

super-sanctimonious face, slicked back hair and lip-less mouth in smarmy smirk and, and, and . . . . ugh! nothing but underwear!

AAAaaaaarrrrrrrrrgggghhhh!!!!! RUN AWAY!

[Paladin]

68. Get Some Sleep, Axelrod. (nt)

[bitchkitty]

69. I had to google loins.

It's 4:45 and I'm bored. I got a lot of pictures of lions, and odd definitions and quotes, but finally found this image. Evidently, these are human loins.



So loins are the entire pelvic area, hmmmm....

David Axelrod used an odd choice of words!

[JimboBillyBubbaBob]

70. Well.....

Axel-Rod seems appropriate for loins!!

[Redford]

72. Loins makes me think of Fifty Shades of Barack

[TwilightGardener]

73. I am pretty sure Obama is facepalming--LOL!

I like Axelrod's little joke at the end, too.

[Brigid]

75. Axelrod could have phrased that better.

Won't someone please think of the children!!
*clutches pearls*

[argiel1234]

76. building up a head of steam?

[JackRiddler]

77. Some metaphors are best left unsaid.

[wordpix]

80. pull a "mitt," Axelrod, and say you didn't say loins, you said lions
