Obama Congratulates "Miami Heats"
June 27, 2012


BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: A lot of people are making a big deal out of this, but I don't know that they are making the right big deal about it.  Last night in Miami Obama was down here to have a fundraiser.  This is just 12 seconds.  But you listen to this.

OBAMA:  It would be incomplete if I did not congratulate the city of Miami for having the world champion Miami Heats.

RUSH:  Okay, now, Barack Obama is a huge NBA fan.  His team is the Chicago "Bull."  That's his team.  The Chicago "Bull."  The Bulls.  People are asking, does he really not know that the name of the champion, NBA champion, team is the Miami Heat?  Does he really not know that?  I mean he does think it's "Cominskey" Park in Chicago.  Folks, he knows it's not the Miami Heats.  I think what you need to know is, this is how, in certain sectors, you insult people.  You mispronounce the name of their team.  You remember, you've seen during the campaign in 2008, Obama would scratch his face only with his flip-the-bird finger while talking about McCain?  That's what this was.  He was flipping the bird to Heat fans by calling them the Heats.

Is it me, or is Obama looking more sinister lately?  There's probably a better word for it - or maybe it's just bad lighting - but he looks angry in a dark way.  You'd think he'd be trying extra hard to curry favor with Floridians since he needs their votes so badly.  You can just see the hatred oozing out of his pores.

Yeah....just like Arnie Cunningham did after he bought "Christine".

He does seem to be 'transforming'.
