How come Family Guy never made fun of Obama?

You know why

Spell it out. It'll be fun.

The color of his hair

Because Obama is actually fucking charismatic AND a competent leader, so there's not much to really go on if you're not a raving lunatic.

Because the only things you can actually really criticize him for are things like drone striking 100,000 babies or whatever which is too unironically edgy for Family Guy who wants to be safe edgy.

I get the impression that you want to say it's because he's black but quite unironically I don't think there's enough dirt on Obama to really make fun of him with, as an individual he's pretty boring. Clinton has the sex scandals and his wife, people think Bush was stupid, he started the GWOT, mishandled Katrina, etc. People think Trump is stupid too and he has tons of memeable isms alongside his extreme general divisiveness. Obama pursued some pretty bad policies but even then people barely remember them as such because they seemed and still seem so milquetoast to everybody.

Obama knew he had to keep it squeaky clean as the first black president. Any bad rep and that'd be put onto the next black president.

Because the first three examples were all people who had very well known things about them to criticize.

This. I doubt Family Guy would be the show to do a joke on tax policy or global economic trade.

The most you could actually go after him for is his love of drone strikes. He kept a relatively low profile, and most of the scandals of his time were committed by cabinet officials largely outside of their regular work.

Yeah, basically, anything Obama did poorly wasn't interesting enough to make jokes about. About the only thing thing I ever hear, isn't even about him, but Michelle (that she has a penis, or she's really a man, things like that).

Because that's the joke. Obama is boring and corny. So the joke is portraying him as the opposite. Other presidents have more interesting things to make fun. And before you say something like he's black, this is Family Guy we're talking about.

Uh oh. I recognized that image. That's when you know the party's over when Barneyfag pops in for a visit in addition to Anon Babblecucks.

Thanks, Obama

This is it. This is the only Obama joke/meme, and it's largely used in irony, which is more of a compliment than an insult.

Cyber Babushka looks strangely like John Candy.

My favorite is the chaos emeralds. There's also Obama walking away with music played over it and Perfect Cell's theme is the best. And Obama even gets in on his jokes, like a dad thinking it's cool to do the same thing as his kids. It kills the meme and I wouldn't be surprised if he did that because of that reason. Also that one time he played the beginning of The Lion King during his speech as his birth certificate when Trump was attending. Other presidents wouldn't do that and some would even get pissed and that would make the meme even more popular.

And even then, that whole drone strike policy was really only because the technology reached maturity under his administration. Anyone else who wasn't a total pacifist would have done the same in that position.
Relatedly, Trump both escalated the frequency of drone strikes and prevented the public reporting of said strikes...

Because putting the blame on him for destroying the economy
Giving out 2 trillion to banks that they pocketed
Losing the war on drugs
Opening the border to tens of millions
Destroying the middle class
Sending race relations spiraling
Too complex for family dude show and they couldnt blame the black man for doing black man things

There's a weird phenomena where Obama can make an appearance in someone's dream in some quiet natural environment, say something super philosophical, and then just... walk away.

Violence For Violence is the rule of beasts

Those cursed with knowledge are the ones who are burdened with choice

Only bare your teeth if you’re willing to get blood on them

Somehow it's literally only Obama who does this shit. No other political figure. So there's a meme that the guy's a dream-walker.

"Petah, look what you did! You've made a bigger mess than Obama did when he repeated that 'hands up, don't shoot' crap!

"Aw jeez, I'm sorry Lois. I made a bigger mistake than Obama did when he left Iraq without any residual forces."

"And so many people have lost everything because of what you did! Just like how thousands lost their employee healthcare coverage after Obamacare was enacted!"

"At least I apologized, Lois! Obama blamed a video after the embassy in Benghazi got attacked!"

The best we have are conspiracy shit and his wife looking like a guy. Maybe the nobel peace prize for blowing up brown kids?

Arguably why I found Rick and Morty to at least somewhat be self-aware and had some more stones than Family Guy. Hebrew ass Roiland at least did try to somewhat be more original and thank god didn't shit blood over the very orange man.
Wish he kicked Obama's ass but sadly Obama was too much of a Chicago mob boss with his tactics to undermine unbribable bureaucrats.
Funny how he also took a photo with his family not too long ago before COVID at an island with a suspiciously similar layout to Epstein's.

In "Underage Peter", Peter notes that Obama's daughters make it look easy to buy alcohol, referring to an incident in October 2015 in which Malia was caught playing beer pong.

"C'mon Lois, you don't have to get in my face like Obama told his supporters to in September 2008!"

"Peetah that one's a stretch."

"Sorry Lois, I've been clinging to that one for 15 years. Like how Obama said the large swaths of Americans who lost their manufacturing jobs cling to guns or religion in April 2008"

*in the style of that reoccurring jingle gag* "Look it up, these are all things he did!"

Drone strikes, cash for clunkers, Achmed's clock

Achmed's cock

FTFY

Liberals can't mock blacks unless it's someone who's an objective piece of shit like OJ. Just browse this thread and you'll see Anon Babblemblr coping that it's because he's boring when that thought is a result of him being handled with kid gloves

Because they were spineless lefties

I don't know if they made fun of Biden either

It's a very dated reference, but it's meant to be the singer from Bye Bye Birdie(who's a partial parody of Conway Twitty, incidentally). He's shown as a teen idol singer who's vapid and a showoff and arrogant but very charismatic
The isn't necessarily saying Obama is a vapid showoff- but the whole joke is that the whole fervor around Obama was like a teen idol with people treating him more like a celebrity than a politician. The whole episode has some references to Bye Bye Birdie.
See also, the Obama episode of Boondocks.

Why was it ok to call george bush a monkey but not michelle obama?

This, murdering brown children for no reason is based.

What about "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon"? And the BLM riots?

In fact, the whole race relations completely deteriorated under Obama's admin.

He started 3 new wars and directly responsible with flooding Europe with middle easter refugees from the regions he destabilized.
He's also the one making everything black and gay at Netflix.

It's okay to say that you don't understand the joke. You don't have to get defensively mad.

The problem is twofold.
1. Drone strikes generally aren't funny
2. The drone strike meme only really became widespread after he was out of office and just based on the numbers it turns out he wasn't really notable in that regard.

You are a subhuman piece of shit

Doesn't make me wrong. More importantly, doesn't make you right.

He's not funny in himself, I think the best way to make fun of Obama is to show that he has an evil side.

he's actually a competent leader unlike Donald Plump, and there's really nothing you can make fun of the guy for without it being offensive, like his skin, the drone strikes, etc. Overall, making fun of Obama's considered an offensive low blow so it's best not to do it

Because there was nothing to work with.

Obama did ruin race relations.

The joke about him being more rock star than politician was even being made by conservatives. My question is, why didn't they make jokes about Biden?

Same reason South Park didn't.

Because Obama took a lot from European technocrats in how they manage public appearance and interaction. He modeled himself heavily on figures such as Tony Blair who were massive shadow power brokers internationally as well as domestically. Fuckers who are unironically called things such as the Dark Lord for how much of low profile they keep but are able to pull the strings in the public sector or within their home party on crucial descisions or policy. He tried to walk the walk with Biden's presidency by forcing him out and putting in a new candidate but flopped hard when Biden refused to bend the knee and put Kamala in instead. That's why. Him being of a certain complextion is secondary and would not stop anyone from putting him over a fire.
