Axelrod Joke: Obamas Considered Naming Dog Miss California

  • Bookmark and Share

On Monday, NewsBusters asked, Is Miss California the Left's new Sarah Palin?

Given what White House senior advisor David Axelrod said in jest about the Obamas considering naming their new dog "Miss California," and judging by the reaction from the audience at George Washington University, one has to think the answer is a resounding "Yes."

Appearing on NPR's "Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me," Axelrod was asked about Bo by host Peter Sagal.

Axelrod's response, and the audience laughter, is rather telling (YouTube audio embedded below the fold with partial transcript):

PETER SAGAL, HOST: So, let's take the President's dog. Obviously, that was focus-grouped, you really wanted to appeal to the Portuguese-American community with the choice. Seriously, do you, is it part of your job to worry about that, how things will play politically. How they'll look, how they should be framed? 

DAVID AXELROD, WHITE HOUSE SENIOR ADVISOR: I only, I only got called in for the final three on the dog.

SAGAL: Really? 

AXELROD: I wasn't there at the beginning of the process.

SAGAL: Seriously, were you consulted?

AXELROD: I was not consulted.

SAGAL: Really?

AXELROD: I was not consulted. 

SAGAL: Really?

AXELROD: Yeah.

UNIDENTIFIED VOICE: But who were the other two? Were there really two others? 

AXELROD: One was Miss California.

(Audience applause and laughter)

UNIDENTIFIED VOICE: Dude, you just lost the carelessly topless demographic for 2012.

Amazing. Now White House advisors are joining the attacks on this woman while media and audience members seemingly applaud.

Honestly, what is happening to this nation?

*****Update: There is some confusion as to what Axelrod and Sagal were discussing. Were they talking about the choice of dogs or choice of names? The way Drudge and Real Clear Politics framed it, they were talking about names. The New York Times piece seemed unclear, although it suggested they were discussing the choice of dogs. 

Frankly, I'm not sure. It seems to me that regardless of what Sagal was asking, Axelrod must have been talking about names, as even from a comedic standpoint, the Obamas certainly weren't considering making Miss California their pet. As a joke, it makes no sense. Of course, if that's the joke, regardless of how absurd, that's even more offensive, astoundingly so.

What do you think they were talking about? Is the punch line that they were considering naming the dog Miss California, or that they were considering making Prejean their pet?

This country is sick...things are completely upside down.

How disgraceful...all of them.

Doubling down on stupid is not a particularly good idea. ~Andrew Breitbart

I know.  Makes you want to

I know.  Makes you want to give up reading the news sometimes.  Not to sound like a freaky conspiracy theorist or anything like that, but there seems to be some very unruly "powers-that-be" that are trying to destroy everything that was ever good about America.  From 'Apple Pie' to morality, decency and everything else that is pure and wholesome.  Unfortunately, most people just become tolerant of the negative changes and then things continue to spiral down even more.

Ok, I am done being negative.  Gonna go running and forget about it.   

No!

Please do not forget about it. Please.

You're not a freaky conspiracy theorist. What you are is someone who's grasped the truth.

Nothing says class ...

... like the Democrat Party.

 

 

It doesn't make any sense.

It doesn't make any sense. Miss California was one of the finalists to be chosen as the Obama's new dog? That's not even a good joke.

Yup

I totally agree, balboa. That was the first thing I thought when I read it, too.

Of all the things Prejean has been accused of being in the last two weeks, a dog is not one of them. I can't even think of any dog-like qualities Prejean could be said to possess. As you say, the joke just makes no sense at all.

Which, if risibility and the ability to joke are attributes of the intellect, speaks volumes about the geniuses who supposedly populate this administration.

Yup again,

Not only is it not a good joke, it's a totally off-topic smear. The idea of linking Obama's dog with any woman sounds pretty misogynistic to me.

But I guess it's okay with the media if Axelrod says it.

It's just a

It's just a not-so-backhanded way of calling Miss Calif a bitch. Perez was up-front about it -- he called her a dumb bitch. Obama's White House is calling her a bitch in another way.

But this is exactly what I expect out of the dimocrat party these days. The current white house represents the dregs of humanity, IMO.

Such as.....?????

And yes bal, I agree with your interpretation; I think Noel got it wrong.  Axelrod  wasn't talking about naming the dog Miss California, he said that  Miss California was one of the final three options for which dog to get.  

OK, let's say it was, as liberals like to say, taken out of context.

What "context" would make suggesting  Miss California as the White House dog OK????  Especially when they got the dog weeks before this controversy erupted?

There is no low road that they will pass up.

Ok, if that's the reference it at least makes some sense out of it. But then we have to wonder at a White House official calling a young woman--a citizen of the United States who has done nothing wrong and said not one thing against him, his colleagues, or his Dear Leader; who has done nothing, in  fact, except agree with Dear Leader--a "dumb bitch."

If this is true (and no one will ever be able to prove it,  unfortunately) this Axelrose buttwipe should be fired on the spot.

Hope Miss Ca. doesn't let these remarks affect her.

Ain't it just peachy keen...

we have pure, skin to the bone smart-asses like Axelrod, and Gibbs being given credibility by the MSM. Show's you how far we've come. I wish we could go back to where we once were. These folks have NO class; no kidding.

Well, the Obama Administration is really changing the "tone" in the country, aren't they? If anyone said something like that about my 21-year old daughter they'd be taking their meals through a straw.

And a person with this kind of mind set is advising the President.....

 

Re Axelrod

This from a man that looks like the back end of a Chinese Crested. The irony.

Exactly.

Creepy looking old man laughing at the expense of a 21-year woman.

Creep

Doesn't Carrie Prejean have the exact same feeling about gay marriage as President Obama?

A year or so ago when Bill Clinton called Obama and his crew Chicago thugs, I thought he was being melodramatic. Now I see he was exactly right (and I don't often defend Bill Clinton).

Agreed,

But you would think they would be smart enough to choose a  target that truly threatened their agenda. I will start the Axelrod ridicule myself in defense of Prejean, who I am sure has a lot more class than I do.

 David Axelrod is an addlebrained, amoral sack of sh*t who apparently thinks it is acceptable to attack a 21 year old Christian woman from the sanctity of the White House. Congratulations you worthless piece of crap! You have succeeded in lowering yourself to a level typical of the rest of the Demorat trolls trying to abscond with our traditions and freedoms. Kiss my *ss!

 

That is the point

"But you would think
they would be smart enough to choose a target that truly threatened their
agenda."

That is the whole point.
Having anyone who gets positive national attention espousing traditional
conservative principles is a threat to their agenda. From Sarah Palin to Joe the Plumber to the people
who attended the Tea Parties, the left is sending the message that they will come
down hard and do whatever it takes to shut down any dissenting opinion. This is another chapter straight out of Rules for
Radicals. Since they can’t prevail in an
exchange of ideas they must resort to smears and ridicule as a way to
discourage anyone else who might be tempted to speak up.

Even further.

The TOTUS actually laughed when Sykes hoped that a private citizen's kidneys would fail.

True, true

With stuff like this and

With stuff like this and the Sykes comment and many other similar things coming from the left, how can anyone argue that the right is "full of hate?"

Yeah, I know the answer: no one ever went broke over-estimating the stupidity of people.

How else does one see it? The Dalai Lama is ain't exactly real comfortable with homosexuality - but they love him. Is Axlerod considering joking about naming the WH dog the Dalai mutt?

Gary

How about Hillary and Obama since they are against gay marriage.Good names for dogs.Oh that was a joke so it is ok.

Animal Spirits

During the election Obama compared Sarah Palin to a pig (and lied about having done so).

Now Axelrod makes no bones (ahem) about comparing Miss California to a dog, via Obama.

What's Obama's preoccupation with comapring women he distains to animals?  Sounds a bit Freudian-esque to me.

/tongue-in-cheek commentary

Not Freudian, muslim. Muslim

Not Freudian, muslim. Muslim men are taught from infancy that women are chattel, something to be owned and used and abused as they see fit. I'm sure Obama picked up this attitude while in Madrassa school in Indonesia. These attitudes always come down to the underlings from the top person. The comical thing is that the feminists would suck his **** in an instant.

Axelrod? What the hell kind

Axelrod? What the hell kind of a name is Axelrod?

What is it with this administration that they always call out private citizens?  They hate individuals.  That's alright, 1.5 years and they'll get theirs.  Laugh it up.  Either we'll vote your butts out or we'll actually throw your butts out and dispense with all this voting crap.  Sit back and watch if we don't.  We're tired of it.

I think of that all the time, and post as such here and there...oh the hypocrisy is sooo on display...once again. ...and the msm and the rest just remain mum about the double-standard these so-called women and their filthy groups have got away with for years, especially during the Clinton years.

If ever NOW and Patricia Ireland were going to show what they said they stood for and represented it was then, on numerous occasions, with various women and charges, especially rape.

Their silence spoke volumes.

I despised all of them from day one when they were really created and on the march...and I was a young gal back then.

"Where is the NOW gang to defend this very nice young lady? Oh, thats right she is not a liberal."

I guess you did not see the episode of Bill O'Reilly where he interviewed one of the ding dongs from NOW who basically told O'Reilly Prejean she was on her own and that NOW was not going to jump and every little incident (every little incident that is Miss California)that a woman has to deal with. Also stated (I'm paraphrasing here) "That Prejean new what she was getting into and she can handle herself." That was classy.

Say it with me gang. HYPOCRITE!

 

 

Axelrod is crude, coarse,

Axelrod is crude, coarse, and vulgar. In other words, typical of the Obama administration.

So the target is one

So the target is one gorgeous female….. who also had the courage to express her views to a live audience.  And she continues to stand by what she said.

The comedian is a homely paunchy middle-aged guy who reminds me of Clyde Crashcup. He compares the beauty queen to a dog, and that is somehow hilarious.

What a disconnect.

A little perspective

A little perspective please...

a.  What the heck was Axlerod referring to?   The name of the dog?  The breed of the dog?  The identity of the consultants? 

b.  If it were the breed or name, it was a tasteless quip and he should apologize.  The idea that he meant to imply Miss California is a "dumb bitch" is utterly ridiculous.

c.  The notion that this augurs the end of Western civilization at the hands of the Obama administration and that Axlerod shouold resign or be fired is also silly.  Should John McCain have resigned from the Senate when he joked that Chelsea Clinton was ugly because Janet Reno was her father?  Should Rush Limbaugh have resigned when he called Chelsea a "dog"?  Of course not.  They apologized, as should Axlerod.

d.  Regarding Wanda Sykes' extraordinarily lame and insensitive wisecracks about Rush:  I could be wrong, but I don't believe Obama reacted with laughter to those particular jokes.

d. He laughed, but then he stopped. I think that's a natural reaction given the situation. I don't hold that against him.

As for Axelrose, I honestly don't thing he's smart enough to have meant anything particularly substantive. He's just a typical left-wing moron trying to score points with his homies. All I say is that if somehow it could be proven that he meant to agree with that Hilton guy that Prejean is a "dumb bitch," he ought to be eviscerated. Obama is supposed to represent all Americans, not just the foofy crowd.

Do you think he will?

They apologized, as should Axlerod. 

 Or will they just snicker and say we all have the context all wrong?

Me I can hop in my 4X4 ( not really )  drive 12 miles; arrive  at 9,200 ft. in an hour and a half. Way up on the side ,of a large mountain

No I do not want to be on the top at anytime near sunrise 10,028 ft,( or 28,028 from the sea floor),it's swarming with tourists. Just me on a dirt "road" in the middle of nowhere. The view is awe inspiring, one can look out over hunderds of linear miles of the Pacific ocean. kid you not dude, sometimes the heat and  cloud weather; torque  and warp the avilable light,  at that time one can see over the horizion, no big deal, here it's just more ocean. Thought I saw China once, nope maybe it was a fluttery wavey multi trillion dollar mirage.

Feels like signing off on a 3 million dollar home loan, yea baby we can make those payments.  When's the first one due?

I charge 5 bucks, to click photos of happy tourist couples./sarc

Then again standing all alone on a big mountain.

I can thank God that I had the chance to live in the age of oil .Our civilization that  freeded many millions; landed  men on the moon. only to be erased, with no one at the controlls in the very near future, SUCKS.

Any hope of reversing the damage Hussein has made and will make will be as difficult as winning any election in 2010.  I'm not too sure about 2012, either.

Our country was allowed to be infiltrated and taken over by people who just don't give a damn.  As soon as their freedoms are affected then they may wake up.  But BDS is so very strong and Love Of The Won is even stronger.  It's a tough call.

0bama joking around.. he's sure is funnie har har, JERK

0bama boy

Not much of a stretch to have a dog named after another conservative.

Reagan VS 0bama

Not out of character

Cleveland Steamer

David Axelrod is a supremely arrogant comb-over who looks like he flosses with tur*s.  He is as corrupt as anyone in DC, rich as heck, and could care less what he says.

Why is the title misnamed?

Here and other places suggest that Axelrod joked about 'naming' the dog 'Miss California', when reading the transcript and listening to the audio plainly shows that Axelrod joked about Carrie Prejean actually BEING one of the dogs under consideration.

 That makes the joke more classless AND stupider at the same time.

Horse puckey

Whenever you hear of a parade which includes horses, imagine all the Axelrod that has to be scooped up off the streets. 

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

This kind of stupidity is

This kind of stupidity is what we can expect from the " leaders " of our country? No wonder we're circling the drain.

Clearly Mr. Axelrod misunderstood.

What was really going on was that the White House was considering having Obama named Miss California, until the Donald rained on their parade.

Excuses

The extent that some of our taking-points posters will go to make excuses for the Bamster and his administration can be stunning.

There's a pattern of Misogyny

That is the EXACT same audience reaction that Obama got when he mentioned Hillary by name, paused, then slipped her the ghetto middle finger and it’s also the same EXACT audience response he got when he said “You can put lipstick on a pig…it’s still a pig” in reference to Sarah Palin.

But Obama never meant any of that stuff, just like Axlefraud didn’t just call Carrie Prejean a dog.

If you want to see the woman haters and have a good laugh, look at this:

Sure, slick...

Michelle looks dreadful in that picture, because, well, she's a particularly dreadful looking person [but, of course, I'm sure no one here at NB would be so crass as to joke about her physical appearance...what would it say about our country?].  And Obama is obviously giving the finger in the linked photo because he hates being married to that ugly woman, and, well, because we all know he's just a plain hater.  Which accounts for the fact that, as a candidate for President, he decided he would periodically give "The Finger" to his political opponents or call them "Pigs" since it is such an impressive and appealing campaign tactic--as well as a useful means of expressing his all-consuming hatred.  Of course.

It just all makes so much sense.

I just don't get it

What in the world is happening to the people of this country? No scruples, no propriety, no shame, no principles, no standards, no morals, no inhibitions. I just don' get it.

Re: I just don't get it

They are following the example of The Doofus. Chicago thuggery is in style, all the old media tells us this.

Gee, I am sure glad Obama is trying to "bring us together" 'cuz

I would sure hate to see if he wasn't . . .

Axelgoof!

David Axelgoof needs to make a public apology immediately. It's amazing that Barack Obama & Carrie Prejean have basically the same view on marriage. One gets crucified, and the other gets a free pass. Typical "Drive By Media" Bias. It's unbelievable how pathetic the media is these days. Like Sean Hannity said, "Journalism Died in 2008".

Gone since early today.....

Gone since early today..... has Axelroad apologized to Ms. Prejean?

The David Axelrod Comedy Hour

And remember people, the ten o'clock show is completely different from the seven o'clock show.

 

 

Naming the dog

Perhaps Axelrod should name the dog after himself, "axelrod" is a cute name and the namer actually looks like the dog or Hitler, I can't decide. I guess he couldn't call the dog Michael because that sounds too much like Michelle, the name of the family gorilla. That could be confusing at playtime. With everything happening in the United States since the annointed one took office it seems to me to naming a pooch would be sort of on the back burner.
