Barack Obama's Link to "Big Diarrhea"

You may have heard recently that Barack Obama gladly accepts donations money from employees of oil companies "Big Oil" to fund his presidential campaign.

But what you may not know is, at this very moment the Obama campaign is lining its coffers with money from "Big Diarrhea."  You heard that right.

As recently as this afternoon, employees of Big Diarrhea and their spouses have donated no less than $25 to Obama's campaign!  

Here are the facts:

ConAgra Foods is the leading producer of substandard frozen meals in America.

Of those substandard frozen meals, `Banquet' is one of the most popular brands.

In October of 2007, ConAgra Foods was forced to recall it's very popular `Banquet Chicken Pot Pie' because those pies were linked to a salmonella outbreak.

Since October of 2007, at least one mid-level employee of ConAgra Foods and his spouse have made monthly donations to Barack Obama's campaign.

Hillary Clinton doesn't take money from Big Diarrhea.*

Face it folks, Obama has Big Diarrhea in his pocket.  Vote accordingly.

*Unless she's the Democratic nominee.

I've been saying for a while that Obama has a lot of shitty corporate ties.

Re: Big Diarrhea (2.00 / 1)

Clinton has taken money from the comptroller of Depends  undergarments.

Given Obama's connection, that is why we need a unity ticket.

Also, Obama's lousy healthcare initiative allows the insurance companies to opt out of providing coverage for anal leakage.

Obama's lousy healthcare initiative allows the insurance companies to opt out of providing coverage for anal leakage.

Whereas Hillary's health care plan calls for universal anal leakage.

"Big Diarrhea" (2.00 / 1)

I thought this was going to be about Olestra, but yeah, Banquet meals count too.

Re: "Big Diarrhea" (2.00 / 1)

Not to nit-pick, but I believe Olestra causes anal leakage.

(I threw up in my mouth a little just writing that)

I firmly believe that Olestra is the true enemy, while Banquet meals only cause noxious gas. Therefore your opponent sucks and I hate them forever, etc etc.

BREAKING!!!!! (2.00 / 2)

I heard Obama's taken money from "Big Pocket" too.  Yes, one of our candidates is in the pocket of pepperoni Hot Pockets.  Obama is taking money from a company who knowingly burns the roofs of the mouths of children.  This will bury him in the general.

"Will it burn my mouth?"
"It will destroy your mouth."


And so, may evil beware and may good dress warmly and eat lots of fresh vegetables.

Previously Mike Huckabee had the designation of being the Hot Pocket candidate, considering that he ran his campaign on Hot Pockets (well, Lean Pockets) and a quarter he found on the street.

Hah, joke's on you. (2.00 / 1)

I've donated $60 and bought a sweat shirt and a t-shirt (adding up to over #35).  I'm having my way with campaign finance laws... I expect $1 million in tax cuts, and a monster truck for every member of my family when Obama becomes president.

Anyways, this diary is off somehow.  It's like someone just dumped a bunch of stuff in it.

I sincerely apologize.  I haven't sipped enough lattes today to create a truly remarkable diary. Plus, my prius is in the shop, so I'm pretty upset about it.

Obama has links to Big Medicine as he has gotten $75 from someone tied to Fairview Hospital.

How can we stand for Obama's ties to big medicine.  We need a candidate who doesn't take any money from big anyone.

Thank ye kindly! (2.00 / 1)

I had a course in Religion and American Politics last term with an evangelical professor whose definition of religion was "Christianity," and whose opinion of Jews was that we were a homogenous group who care only about Israel.  So by the time I came to the "Why are Jews Democrats?" short-answer question on the midterm, I'd had it...and I put down the rest of my sig as my answer.

Oddly, she gave me full credit on the question anyway (she later said, "Well, you're a Jew, so I know you know the answer!"  Sigh.), plus extra credit for humor.  Heh.  But the line was too good to give up, so I made it a sig.

Since this diary is utterly jacked (2.00 / 0)

I will comment that Michelle Obama's appearance on the Colbert report (rerun appearing in 20 minutes) was tremendously leggy in a classy way.

She nailed the appearance.

I protest Sen. Obama's ties to big medicine and demand that he returns the contributions to the donors to show that he isn't in the pocket of big medicine.
