Iowa woman tired of seeing Obama - Sells her TV's

[RamboLiberal]

A 78-year-old Carroll woman says she's so tired of seeing President Barack Obama on the airwaves that she's selling her television sets - two of them.

Deloris Nissen, a retired nurses' aide and former Kmart employee who was raised on a farm near Audubon, placed a classified advertisement with The Daily Times Herald for Friday's paper.

In the $5.50 ad, Nissen tells readers she has two television sets for sale.

The reason: "Obama on every channel and station."

In an interview Nissen said she is serious about selling two TVs - and genuine about her disgust with what she believes to be an overexposed president.

"I just got tired of watching him on every channel," Nissen said. "I thought, my gosh, does he ever stay at the White House?"

Hey Deloris - did you ever notice how Bush was never at the WH? We got real tired of seeing his face and annoying speaaking style on the TV every day for 8 friggin' years!

1. What a fucking dummy

Only in America does one make the news for being stupid. What a country!

[redqueen]

2. "Only in America ..."

That is far from the truth.

[ellacott]

65. You took the words out of my mouth

[SalviaBlue]

3. I guess she lost the remote.

:shrug:

[SoCalDem]

13. batteries wore out

:)

[Dawgs]

4. "I'm not a racist, but there are too many ni**ers on tv"

That's an exact quote from my wife's grandfather this past Christmas.

[Bicoastal]

29. This black guy is everywhere...it's like he's PRESIDENT or something.

[vikegirl]

58. Did she say that?

As someone who grew up in Iowa, AND IS A MINORITY.....did she fucking say (as you so suspiciously do? "ni**ers"?!

It's an old woman who just doesn't know the 21st Century, dudes...A racist?

:eyes:

[Dawgs]

61. No. My wife's grandfather said it (like I said in my original post).

:hi:

[DebbieCDC]

5. Well I guess this means she won't be watching FUX anymore either

[AspenRose]

33. A silver lining!

Maybe she'll trash her radio too....one can hope

[FrenchieCat]

6. Why is this a fucking story?

Why does everyone of Obama's critics get a platform to spew their hate,
while there was no exposure for the millions who hated Bush throughout 8 long ass years?

I mean, what's up with that?

[johnnie]

7. Blame the liberal media

[RamboLiberal]

26. It's in a little friggin' local paper

Probably there it is newz!

[sakabatou]

41. Slow news day?

[whistler162]

45. Same reason it was a story when someone sold their TV

during the 8 years of Bush, slow news day.

The question is why do so many posters sound like wanna' be Freepers!

[Flying Dream Blues]

63. I know! I say the same thing every night, even watching MSNBC. Why do the

hatemongers get such a big voice now, and when they had all the power you heard very little from our side of the fence? Example: Because the excuse they use now is "it makes good TV" so what was the excuse for shutting us up for eight years? Wouldn't that have "made good TV" also?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

8. Does he ever stay at the white house?

Ah, she gets upset that Obama keeps leaving the white house to crawl inside the little door in the back of her TV. Probably upset he keeps turning off the refridgerator light every time she closes the door too.

[xultar]

9. DUzy

[JuniperLea]

11. +1 ... !!!

:rofl:

[Arkana]

48. Brilliant.

[vikegirl]

59. Ugh.

I grew up in Iowa, and am such a derelict that....OH! The refridgerator light scares me! I am soooo unenlightened.


You so deserve a DUzy for your efforts. Excuse me for being so....hick.


+1.

Brilliant.

[Hutzpa]

10. And this made the news???

what is so special about that?

:shrug:

[Cali_Democrat]

12. Either she's an attention whore or a total moron

Or maybe both.

[PatSeg]

14. Evidently she didn't know how to use the remote

We all gave our remotes a work out for eight years every time Bush and his accomplices showed up on television.

[JuniperLea]

15. Bless her heart!

The ladies in my family don't go senile until much later in life. Bless her heart, and her inferior gene pool.

[GoCubsGo]

16. She's so upset that she's keeping her new flat panel set, however...

The article says she's getting rid of the big one because "it's too heavy". What a crock. Deloris is just a bitter, old nutjob.

[Swede]

17. When was Obama on the Foot network?

I'd watch him cook one of his favorites.

[Critters2]

43. Holy crap! Deloris is right! He IS everywhere! nt

[TTUBatfan2008]

44. That Mofopolitics website is insane...

Why did you a post a link from it?

[masuki bance]

51. Why not? Google Obama food network, it's the first video. If the

internet is a scary place for you, they have software that you can use to filter your visits.

[TTUBatfan2008]

52. Trust me, I'm not afraid of anything on the Internet...

Just interesting to me that you posted a link to a right wing site, that's all. Here's the direct link to the video, without the right wing propaganda.

http://www.politico.com/singletitlevideo.html?bcpid=1155201977&bctid=26871754001

[masuki bance]

53. Politikkko isn't held in high esteem here either.

I just looked at that mofo site, you're right. I wasn't paying attention to the site, just the video. Next time I will just post the direct video link. Was in a hurry.

[TTUBatfan2008]

57. I understand...

And yeah, Politico is generally seen as a right wing rag around here. The comments on their articles look like they come from the types of nutjobs who are running that Mofopolitics site. It's funny too because 99% of the "reporting" by Politico is an attack on Democrats, yet the comments on their articles are by those fringe right wingers who think every media outlet is leftist including Politico and Fox News. lolz, Birfers.

[TheKentuckian]

18. Why do I know what Deloris thinks? Who the fuck is she?

[Phx_Dem]

19. Great! Now the beyotch can't watch Fox news either!

[Arkana]

49. So when is someone going to calmly explain to her

that Fox and CNN aren't the only channels on her TV?

[yellowcanine]

21. Guess she is worried that she is getting old and hasn't had her "15 minutes" yet.

And she is KEEPING a larger flat panel set! Not only is she nuts, she is a liar also!

[BeyondGeography]

22. Whatever, ya old whiner

:hi:

[Beacool]

23. Too funny!!!!!!!!!!!

:rofl:

Though, she could have tried changing the channel.........

:eyes:

[yellowcanine]

24. And she is KEEPING a larger flat panel set! Not only is she nuts, she is a liar also!

[mitchum]

25. "That colored man is on mah teevee all of the time!"

count on that as the real reason

[and-justice-for-all]

27. That is pretty stupid...does she only get news channels? LOL..what a turd..nt

[JayMusgrove]

28. I'm actually getting tired of people who get attention for not liking Obama

If they want to make news, how about they do something besides complain?

[Fire1]

30. Hey Delois! A President on his feet is worth two in their seat!!

TWIT!

[Blue_Tires]

31. i've seen some pretty fuckin' lame non-news stories from podunk

having reported for small community papers, and that is one for the Hall of Fame....

and i have serious questions about the news judgment of the reporter and editor...

[AspenRose]

32. I've heard that from some folks on Facebook

"He's on again....*click*"


Poor babies.

[Zen Democrat]

34. She didn't need those TVs to listen to Limpballs and Insannity. n/t

[Cha]

35. Stupid, I still have my tv after bush's

8 years in the white house, I just changed the channel.

Fucking nitwits can't even manage that.

[NoPasaran]

36. In Soviet America, Obama sees YOU!

[Rosa Luxemburg]

37. Yes Obama is everwhere - you have no escape in outer space!

what a stupid she-dog

[Arkana]

38. "HOW DO I CHANGED CHANNEL?!"

:downs:

[Umbral]

39. And forced to view the world unfiltered by Fox News rhetoric, she may have an epiphany...

Wait, she probably kept the radio - "gotta keep up Rush". Nevermind.

[VPStoltz]

40. I guess she'd prefer the Dick Cheney model of governing.

Fuck up everything from a bunker, come out into the sun to shoot a friend in the face, then retreat to the cave to start another war or steal another couple trillion from the treasury.
Obama's style is markedly different.

[d_b]

42. don't worry Deloris

in five or ten years you won't be seeing shit.

[mwooldri]

46. I'm more upset with the TV schedule these days.

Too much "Paid Programming".

[DeepBlueC]

47. Good. She'll be cured of Faux News too.

That has to be good for her health. ;)

[Ikonoklast]

50. She just took up a new hobby now that she has no television to watch.

[Jennicut]

54. Whenever McLame is on tv, I want to thow it out the window. Ditto for all Rethugs.

[Monk06]

55. Hey Deloris can I have your collection of Teresa Brewer records ?

[NavyMom]

56. Hey Deloris, they have a new fangled invention called a remote..nt

[shaniqua6392]

60. At least she won't be able to watch Fixed News any more either.

What a nut case!!

[Aramchek]

62. but she loved W's white ass!

[graywarrior]

64. She gets attention for that?
