Giuliani and Palin Belittle Obama's Community Organizer Past

[MauricXe]

i think this is about when the republicans lost the election

[UBchick33]

This is so insulting.. 

[bpeck77]

That "community organizer" got Osama bin Laden, which is something the terror-obsessed Republicans never managed to do.

[joe80dmanizanerd]

I find it hilarious, Palin criticizing Obama.. She's the most unexperienced uneducated irrational dumb piece of shit that has ever ran for (vice)president, and yet she is criticizing someone who's on a level that she will never reach.

Gj Sarah, I hate you even more now.

[andres91881]

The reason why you know it's dog whistle racism is because of how they focus on his community organizing background, rather than also including his terms in the Illinois Senate and U.S. Senate. The organizing job was like his entry level job into politics to meet people, but that was two decades ago. They focus on it like that's "who he is" - which is why Palin mentions "actual responsibilities" - a reference to lazy black people on welfare for their racist base

[andres91881]

The blatant racism in these speeches is despicable, and that's coming from a white male myself. Notice how Guiliani says at the 30 second mark, "maybe this is the FIRST PROBLEM on the resume", and everyone laughs....like they all understand the idea that the first problem is that he's Black!

This is pure Southern Strategy coded words for the racists in their base....but the thing is, America is getting less and less racist every year, so I can't see how they can try this again in 2012 or 2016

[dershed]

It's funny that at the same age Obama was working as a community organizer, fighting for the poor and under-served, Palin was on the 5-year program to a sports journalism degree, and working hard to become a beauty pageant contestant. The lady is a joke and a phony!

[MamoDad]

Total. Fucking. Idiots.

Proven LOSERS as well.

[SoINeedAName48]

Please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - oh, please - let the fucking idiotic Teapublicans nominate that bitch!

(Be careful what I wish for? Hell, I'm PRAYING that bitch gets nominated!)

OBAMA - 2012!!!!

[FatalMusa]

Africas a country dontchyano

[FURepublicans]

As a community organizer myself, I am offended!

[eaodak]

And that 'community organizer' is now your president mofo's!

Suck it right wingers! Long Live President Obama!

[eaodak]

Look at all those laughing white faces... Funny how so many of them are now at Tea Bagger parties. What's their solution to their first black president? To just Tea Bag the shit out of each other...

Tea Bag on my friends, Tea Bag on!

[eaodak]

Wow, Republicans are such scum bags....

Long Live President Obama!

[jburger811]

palins ymca experiance totally trumps obams community organizer responsabilities!

[92451721921892113]

community organization is Marxist! - every dumb republican ever.

[kidrx666]

hope Rudi dies of cancer and Palin dies penniless in a trailer park.

[kraft04610]

you want them dead cause your scared

you know your dumbass liberals are done in 2010 and 2012

[kidrx666]

uh... yeah

[Ky901]

This is why I did not feel sorry for her when it back fired!!! AND its continuing to backfire, LOL!!!!!!!

[rfavro]

Community organizing is one of the more noble backgrounds of politicians. When I watch this again, I realize that no matter what differences people have with Obama, the Republicans didn't deserve another victory after spending seven years of spreading fear to start the war with Iraq, failing to help the people of New Orleans during hurricane Katrina, wiretaping torturing people in the name of "freedom". Good riddance to Bush and the neo-cons.

[rfavro]

I remember watching this live on CNN. This is one of the flops that helped kill the Republican Party. The dopes in the audience laugh at community organizing because the speakers say it's funny. Giuliani, Palin and the audience chose to be snobbish and they threw their hopes of winning the common voter into the trash bin. I don't think Obama is perfect, in fact I think he is a demagogue, but the Republican leadership ruined own party through their arrogance and snobbery and they deserved it.

[sexyfoxx86]

I don't understand how they can look down at that experience! As a community organizer he has worked with churches to set up job training programs, after school programs, helped poor people that had asbestos in their homes, and a lot of other things! That's TRULY putting country first! While they are looking down on that experience Jesus himself was a community organizer!

[skynet000001]

What about the fact that he was a senator at the time. Why didn't they bring up that he was in a little league when he was a kid. pathetic

[JMS13579]

What do you want them to do, ignore the fact that the democrats picked a candidate with NO EXPERIENCE THAT QUALIFIES HIM TO BE PRESIDENT WHATSOEVER. They just chose the Young pretty black man with no experience... kinda sad. PLEASE tell me what else qualifies him to be president? you ignorant democrats have no idea how to run a country, or what the real world is like. WHO CARES ABOUT A BLACK PRESIDENT, HE HASNT DONE ANYTHING YET AND HE IS HAILED AS ONE OF THE BEST PRESIDENTS EVER?!?! DipShits...

[slushbushmush]

I've rarely ever been so angry as I was the night after I sat down and watched these jack*sses at the RNC. Donated money to a political campaign for the first (and probably last) time in my life after seeing it.

[MauricXe]

Same here. This is what pushed me over the edge as well.

[MikeMath9]

Saw both live, was completely appalled at the arrogance.

Glad we have a smart President.

[velony]

I guess they shouldn't have pissed off the people who have the skills to organize. You know, communities. To vote.

[dispatch886]

9/11, 9/11, 9/11

[themuppetsforlife]

Arrrrr Palin trying to mock Obama possibly the thickest human being I have ever seen, at least when Obama was a community organiser he did not leave a town of about 2 people in somthing silly like 20million dollars of debt, dumb prick

[jg9274]

Rudy Giuliani only says "he works as an community organizer" and then laugh. thats the only thing he could come up with, what a prick

[gregulate21]

what fucking assholes......

[unreal030]

Inbred Hillbillies

[FlamingBat]

0:58-1:04

Who is that?

[delicateblu]

"What?" Rudy laughs.

Palin is just as bad. Yes. They reflect their party beautifully.

[oneak]

Thats right Rudy... shoot down the idea that any Us citizen can become president.

Palin is a disgrace.

[todnyc]

you weren't Rudy's campaign manager? just kidding

[backtobelmore]

That glorified mayor used September 11 as a launching pad for his run for the presidency. He and Palin certainly have egg all over their faces now after their 'community organizer' dismissiveness. If Palin believes she can win the 2012 election, after a resounding verdict of denunciation against her and her running mate in 2008, she probably believes in Santa Clause. Given Alaska's close proximity to the North Pole, it wouldn't surprise me.

[22349a]

Judging by some of the stupid hats those GOP twats were wearing, is it any wonder we kicked their asses? GO OBAMA!

[todnyc]

before Nov 4, this made me sick, but now it makes me laugh my ass off

[gooblygob]

I guess serving your community wins you the WHITE HOUSE. Congratulation to our future president.

[sonikbaby]

And why shouldnt it!? I AM PROUD OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS!

[stopkitten]

the community organizer comment was made in response to the comment made that sarah palin doesnt have enough experience to be vice president when in reality she has more experience than obama but they did take it a little too far

[SW4747]

Obama was a "Saul Alinsky" Community Organizer. Alinsky was a radical socialist, who advocated a radical redistribution of wealth. He taught his followers to go into poor communities, convince people their lives sucked, then propose to "change" that by taking from the haves and giving to the have nots. How? By electing people which socilist views. In his book, he tells us that people may resist, because they "cling to certain fixed points in their life". Fixed points? Like Religion?

[smalltownvids]

i literally shit while watching this

i like to consider myself independent...but fuck the GOP

[takashiappletv]

super disgusting

[videogirlzzzzzz]

They were talking tall sheit that day. Now everybody knows that she is a dumb ass.

[frellthat]

I hope Palin wears that smirk going into the debate.

[libertad]

If it weren't for community organizers women wouldn't even have the right to vote and Sarah Palin wouldn't have the right to be standing where she's standing right now.

And Rudy? Simply being the mayor of NYC during 9/11 doesn't make you qualified for anything. Common citizens were the ones who reached out to one another after that tragedy to help pick up the pieces of everything they lost. He just made a photo op out of it.

Obama 08!

[Ichenmeis]

What douchebags

[mikec1100]

All of Mccains supporters are idoits. They're so elitist that they look down at community organizing and they personally wouldnt lift a finger for it.

Obama/Biden 08

[bezerkfurp8]

look at the crowd. everyone is white and relatively old. how can u vote for palin, look at what she is saying

[elita6753]

Obama was inspired as a community organizer by Saul Alinsky.

Please search the web and find out who was "Saul Alinsky".

[elita6753]

Community organizing. To be successful at the job, one need not produce a single, positive result, not perform a single objective task for the community at large, not produce one shred of real change or reform, nor a single act of charity. In fact, the only thing one need do to proclaim success, is to leave people more angry and demanding of a government fix-it-all than they were before the organizer arrived in the midst of their community.

[jremy2006]

i hate that rat bastard guiliani

[21coltscrazy18]

i never realized how much giuliani was a fuckin DICK!!

[sonikbaby]

SERUIOUSLY! SHes a fucking BITch and hes a fucking DICK!

[rainacorn]

Good God, Republicans cling to any word that falls out of Palin's mouth as if she said something even half-intelligent. I'm not sure if a woman who takes her children hunting (and apparently doesn't teach them about contraception) is one to talk about actual responsibilities. If this woman comes into any power, there truly shall be a bridge to nowhere for America. I hope for the sake of the world that Obama wins. :-)

[stew4lunch]

Glad to hear you're in favor of education on contraception for young girls. Would you relay your post to the 70% of democrat African American households* that have no male presence at all, much less matrimony.

Better a bridge to nowhere than one straight to hell, Obie's destination.

"Sake of the world?" Does the oath of office require the pres to save the world now? I thought it was just some stuff about defending the constitution, etc. etc.

*Organized by Obie, no doubt.

[AllInAll79]

Sometimes it just takes those whom use to be blind to bring sight to those whom still are blind.

Unless You're a Republican, I guess they just run around the blind and poke them with sticks,until they're full of "Exuberance", If I was a Republican and I had no fiat in other People I might say that there is Evil in the World & their full of it.

[jeffzalonka]

so let me get this right. they are making fun of obama for trying to help the community?

how are all those people out there that are community organizers feeling right now?  that these two dip shits think what you are doing is a joke and that they are so much better than you...

[macdadi]

Yes, tell all the kids to stop organizing and volunteering and offering to improve their communities. Nice message, Captain 9/11 and Mayberry Mayor.

[speedtec2000]

Palin is a fraud, nothing more than a walking taking mouth peice for big oil.

[rgz500]

OMG obama was a community organizer!!?? hilarious!! might as well been a terrorist, right rudy?

[Lainy280]

Wow, how insulting. I guess community service and community organizing doesn't matter. But you know, these are the people claiming to be just like you, say Obama is an uppity elitist, and laugh at those who try to make this world a better place.

[WalDrumma]

Jesus was a community organizer, Pontius Pilot was a Governor.

[CountDraculer]

seriously Giuliani was awesome i saw the whole seech

[DD826]

"Community Organizer" sounds like one of those federal job programs, for rabble rousers!

[juliaopel]

They are so stupid it's painful! Being a community organizer is really fucking hard and it's even harder if your doing it in Chicago.

[abcpools]

It is a b. s. item for a resumee. News flash retards you can b s your way into a j o b @ mickey d's but not the white house!!!!

[trudog2]

So is the PTA, and being the "Mayor" of a truckstop town in Mooseshit Alaska. Works both ways... MY FRIEND. Not to mention her vast FP experience b/c Alaska is right next to Russia. What a fucking joke. Biden called that fuck nut Giuliani the "least qualified person ever to run for President", and he was at least the Mayor of New York City. Biden is going to kill her.

[lynnbrown23]

I found this very offensive. I'm a community organizer. I get the sense from the Palin and the some of the Republicans that it is an inferior job to have. Isn't America built on its communities? You didn't see anyone belittling Jesus when he told his disciples that he would wash their feet at the last supper. I find it just disgusting when we start mocking people's jobs.

[DD826]

Can you say, "bye, bye to Obama"!

[DD826]

Rudy really brought it to Obama. He and Palin were the most entertaining at the convention. Good job.

[jabusso]

What kind of budget-cutter makes a show of getting rid of the state plane, then turns around & bills taxpayers for the travel of her husband & kids between Juneau & Wasilla & sticks the state with a per-diem tab to stay in her own home?

Why was Sarah for the Bridge to Nowhere before she was against the Bridge to Nowhere, & why was she for earmarks before she was against them?

What kind of fiscal conservative raises taxes & increases budgets in both her jobs — as mayor and as governor?

[GretchenDawntreader]

there's this comparison going on (Palin used it herself) between Obama's community organizing, and Palin's mayorship.

Palin was a mayor just a couple years ago.

Obama was a community organizer ages ago, before he went to law school and then got involved in government at the state and national level. Better to compare what Palin was doing before law school (if she attended law school.)

Hunting from a plane perhaps?

[DD826]

According to Obama's statements, he didn't even know what a "community organizer" did before he took the job, he only knew that he would get a salary. So, it is safe to say, that he became a "community organizer" for the money, not because of a call to civic duty!

[GretchenDawntreader]

this is drifting further and further from the point of the video.

C.O. is something Obama did ages ago. They are comparing it to something Palin did 2-3 years ago.

Maybe he delivered papers when he was in gradeschool, I have no idea. In that case, would they have all had a hearty laugh at the expense of kids with paper-routes, and compared that to being a mayor?

As a baby, Barack probably was in daipers...do we want a commander in chief who wore daipers? Palin was a Mayor! Better!

[katoucha05]

What shame, some people still dont want to vote for Obama just because he's black eventhough 008 will help theirs own interest. What racists. I moving back to Europe

[DD826]

katoucha05,

Have a safe trip.  If white people are racist for not voteing for Obama? Then black people must be more racist, as 98% of blacks are voteing for him.

Anytime someone acts because of race, it is racist!

[tf]

we need hypocrites like McCain and Palin! whatever people

[s10129107]

Community organizing is what obama did STRAIGHT out of college. He did a lot of other things too. Lets be real, what did Sarah Palin do after she got her communications degree. She was a SPORTS REPORTER for an itty bitty news station right after college. Is she saying being a sports reporter is more beneficial to society? What disgusting hypocrisy. Ignore EVERYTHING else Obama has accomplished and instead focus on his actions right out of college. I hope she stays in Alaska for a long time!!

[auzziebloke82]

This is politics. Tit for tat. The Obama camp belittled Palin's efforts as a mayor, and Republicans simply shot back with a similar attack.

I think Obama fans are just angry that the "organizer" attacks were funnier.

Also, no matter how 'holy' someone is - there is ALWAYS self-interest involved when choosing certain jobs. Especially those with an eye for politics.

Most presidential candidates start preparing for their 'ascent' years and years before the campaign.  Obama is no different.

[katoucha05]

I will myself the 008 campaign to add an ad about that. And shows also that Jesus was a community organizer. No wonder shen thiks God wanted the War in Irak, what a crap.

[hoodman02]

Amercia is an communtiy, and we need an organizer to help us run this communtiy. OBAMA 08

[82ndEdmen]

why does a mayor from "New York City" make fun of communtiy organizers, knowing that those people are trying to make new york city a better place.

[mirromask]

When taxpayers pay for air flights and fancy hotel rooms for Bristol Palin's fiancee, then it is worth noting that YOU are paying for Palin's daughters' teen preganancy. See this and more ethics violations: Palin Billed State for Nights Spent at Home; Taxpayers Also Funded Family's Travel at Washington Post Sep 9, 2008.

[burnaboy]

I DONT SEE HOW THEY SAY HER SPEECH "HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK"...its like when a guy goes and do a regular old dunk or make a tackle and the announcer screams ..."did you see that!!!! oh my!!!"...just to make a boring situation something that its not..lol

[GretchenDawntreader]

I love the fact there is a t-shirt out there that says:

"Jesus was a community organizer. Pontius Pilate was a governor."

An entire convention of *assholes* who think working for the common man to improve your community is *laughable.*

Assholes!

[xVin89x]

its nice and dandy to be a communtiy organizer and theres nothing wrong with that. but when u start boasting the fact that your the absolute candidate over other ppl because u were a community organizer then thats where we have problems. its simply not enough hands on experience for the job. thats like putting a manager of a retail store and promoting him to the board of directors.

[dafttool]

The GOP are scraping the bottom of the barrel with these community organizer criticisms, treating the calling as if it something somebody should be ashamed of. For Palin, a fanatical Bible-thumper, it is particularly egregious to be slamming the profession of her supposed Lord & Savior.

[R1COs]

after careful study of the american people and it's parties from a distance. (Europe) I've come to a simple conclusion. There are two sorts of people: the Takers and the Givers. without unity there will never be peace in this scenario. without knowledge about one's true nature, there is no Love. cause fear comes from not knowing and being in the dark.

Love gives

Fear takes

these are the only two energies at the core of the human experience

choose carefully which sponsoring thought you run on

[rockmecp]

Jesus was a community organizer, Judas was a governor.

[entshow]

reeeeeeaaaaaallllly? Hmmmm - that's an interesting prism through which to look at history. And where did you get this nugget of truth, little man?

Lemme save you the research (since you're obviously not used to doing ANY!): Jesus is the Creator of the Universe, the Redeemer of mankind and indeed is GOD.

And Judas was governor? of what?

Democraps. Gimme a break.

[xinkor]

"Lemme save you the research (since you're obviously not used to doing ANY!): Jesus is the Creator of the Universe, the Redeemer of mankind and indeed is GOD. " Where did you research this?

[Richardgwm]

Well, they can't win on the issues, so insults is all they can offer.

[Steadno]

Mussolini

[adseipsum]

how can you vote for this?

[xVin89x]

how can u vote for a man whos done more CAMPAIGNING THEN LEGISLATING?!!?!?!? howowowow!?!!?

[KLNDR]

owowowowowow is right.

[NYMets1218]

this is insane. you fucking snob fagget republicans. who the fuck are you people. communities make up the united states you assclowns. grow the fuck up and talk shit that makes sense. and also when i get hired to a big company and make millions more than you fuckin redneck republicans you can ask my employer why i got the job. most likely because i am an eagle scout and have done countless hours of COMMUNITY service and organizing as a 17 year old. WAKE UP AND BE PEOPLE, NOT A PARTY

[xVin89x]

lol the only thing i think we have in common is the fact that we root for the new york mets. but if u look at it, hows obama/biden the party of change when they both are washington insiders combining for over 20 yrs in congress. lol need i mention congress has lower approval rating then bush. lol need i say more.

[pantha266]

Either update your talking points or try original thought. Kool-Aid????

[adamfruitcake]

Ridiculing communities...considering McCain doesnt know how many houses he has and is willing to blow $400 on a pair of shoes. I can see he's completely in touch with normal people involved in such communities.

[xVin89x]

ya same thing how they ridculed palin being mayor of wasilla, and just like obamas comments of the ppl of pennsylvania " they only cling to thier guns and religion." ya nice try moron..

[cindiloohoo]

These people are vile.

[NoLmit48]

Aren't Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson community organizers? They have things that you can actually point to and say Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson have done these things. But you can't do that with Obama. What results did his community organizing produce? Honestly, what has Obama done? Teaching at the University of Chicago? Not much there. Nothing published. As a Senator? No legislation. Seriously. What has he done besides run a campaign. Nevermind that he has a campaign manager for that.

[tp2005]

Here's a newsflash....everyone doesn't service their communities for notoriety, attention and credit. Some just do it for a desire to help people, expecting little-to-nothing in return.

[machineou812]

lets see a community organizer is something that helps the community,helping people,thats nothing to put someone down about,iam glad the republicians are showing there true colors,I know iam voting for obama

[Lopinette]

Shame on you! No community, no country...

[xVin89x]

shame thing with palin then... dont fuckin belittle her being mayor of wasilla.

[GD182]

You're one to talk, Palin, 17 year old pregnant daughter and all.

[hajqbvii]

When there are no issues on their agenda, GOP's always make personal attacks...Do these people know how it affects a community when there's plant closures, unemployment and cancelled health insurance?

[socksnogger]

And they say Obama is the elitist...
