Is Barack Obama an Oompa Loompa?
No sooner had I logged on to DU this morning than I learned that Barack Obama is actually orange, as in the first photo below:



Does this mean that the story about the Kenyan father is actually a cover story for his Oompa Loompa parentage? Or, could it be that there is a color balance issue with the photo in question?

Some levity in GD: P is needed.

9. It would be levity if it were funny.
But it's just really really lame.

17. Making fun of people's skin color isn't funny?
What planet are you from?

18. Lamitity aside
it is still levity (and yes, lamitity is not a real word).

13. LOL
but threads may be over-rated on this board... the venom-to-substance ration here is out of whack. In fact, I find myself succumbing to it!

26. Oh, I don't feel hurt.
Does it hurt YOU that I express my disdain for an O.P. that I think is stupid?

29. Wasn't really trying to be pithy.
You felt compelled to comment about how I felt compelled to comment, and yet you imagine you're any different?

12. There is no basis for believing that Barack Obama is an Oompa Loompa - as far as I know.
Let's hope the Obama people never find any photos of Hillary looking her age ...

20. OMG - a repeat of 2004 - where the Republicans claimed Kerry's face was orange before the first
debate. People who had seen him shortly before in Wisconsin where he prepared for the debate commented on teh Kerry blog that his complexion was the same color it always was - and he looked completely normal in the first debate - the same could not be said for his opponent who was definately strange.

23. The accusations in that other thread are baseless.
And they call us desperate.
