It’s been a while since I wandered over to Cao’s blog to see what the lizard bitch has been up to. So today I click on the link, and what do I find?
Cao is busy being dishonest and mind-bogglingly stupid again — not to mention petty. It’s got its panties in a twist about the draperies in the White House. How junior-high is that?
Here’s Cao expostulating on the intersection of interior design and national security:
And the thing that has bothered me the most is the bright yellow drape behind him every time he speaks from the white house.
It has Arabic symbols on it and has been there from the beginning.
The bright yellow curtain Obama stands in front of are not only highly visible, but as you scroll down through the pictures of past presidents speaking at the same spot, you will see what is predominantly absent: traditional ‘American’ background and decor as opposed to the new decor. This is intentional, and it should alarm every American.
No, Cao. The other pictures you posted do not show past Presidents “speaking at the same spot”. The room from which Obama is speaking is quite recognizably the East Room of the White House, and the curtains in that room have been of a golden hue since the Kennedy administration:
During the Kennedy restoration, interior designer Stéphane Boudin recommended the mantels be faux painted to appear as white marble, providing more unity to the room. Boudin also oversaw design of new drapery for the room, not installed until the Johnson administration. Made of a custom manufactured gold silk lampas, the drapery was hung in straight panels without valances from the carved and gilded 1902 wooden cornices.The Kennedys installed a small moveable stage for the room, the Johnsons had a larger temporary stage with Corinthian pilasters matching the room’s architecture built. This allowed for small theatrical events to be performed as entertainment following state dinners. During the Clinton administration the faux marble finish was removed from the mantels revealing the red marble and new Aubusson style carpets were woven to protect the parquet floors. Mrs. Bush installed new curtains, following the Kennedy fabric but with deeper swagged valances than those selected by Mrs. Reagan in 1982. Hers were the second curtains to follow the Kennedy fabric for the East Room.
Hunh. Not only is Obama not responsible for the yellow drapes, but Laura Bush approved the yellow drapes currently hanging in the East Room, complete with supposed “Arabic symbols”. And, oh, lookie… Our Sainted Past President George W. Bush spoke in front of those very same Islamofascist drapes:
Oh, the shame! The shame!
One would think that, given the number of times Cao has been shown to be full of 100% rancid mule droppings, it would learn to shut the fuck up until it is certain that it has its facts straight.
One would be wrong, of course.
UPDATE 08/13/10 12:46 PM EDT: In the same post, Cao claims that…
The Oval Office is now stripped of the traditional red, white, and blue, and replaced with middle eastern wallpaper, drapes, and decor.
Not surprisingly, it’s lying about this, too.
Lately…
