First Lady Michelle Obama took a jab at rural Americans during a speech she delivered to Democrats at the posh Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, according to a White House transcript of her remarks.
Her comments came as she was imploring the high-dollars donors to dig deep and “max out” their checking accounts.
“Leave San Francisco,” she told the laughing audience. “Leave this bastion. Goout in the wilderness. And roll up your sleeves because we know that those person-to-person contacts, those calls and doors knocked on, all of that can also mean the difference between victory and defeat.” (link)
(Via Rebel Pundit) […] “Mr. President, we’d probably be better off if you called off your presidency off right now. Just quit. Because if this is what you call helping us, then stop helping us.”
“His approach always is to place blame on the corporate world. The blame is equal. It’s not the one-percent problem. It’s not the 99% problem. It’s an American problem.”
“You can’t turn this around. Just step down.”
Last night in Chicago, black grassroots activists reacted to President Obama’s State of the Union address at Wallace’s Catfish Corner–and it wasn’t pretty. (more…)
The vice president doesn’t seem to have the biggest attention span. He’s more of a talker than a listener. And so, at one point during President Obama’s State of the Union speech, Biden suddenly lost his focus, got a big smirk on his face and began conversing with someone in the audience with hand signals. It only lasted a moment, but what a moment. (link)
President Obama and his administration fully supported and formerly endorsed Egypt’s now deposed President Morsi.
Morsi is on trial for opening the jails, releasing the Muslim Brotherhood members, and for aiding in a jailbreak of convicted terrorists and murderers.
Remember, despite the concerns of the Egyptian people…. Hillary Clinton glowingly endorsed this man.
Go to the :30 moment in the video. Morsi is behind bars in the courtroom pacing like a wild animal and then as soon as the judicial panel sits down he begins yelling: “who the hell are you”? “Do you know what I am”? “What I will do to you”? (more…)
Following dramatic failures of the last two singles, “Share The Wealth” and “Income Inequality”, President Lip-Sync announces the catchy new single which has been typed into the teleprompter:
“Ladders of Opportunity”
Whether anyone buys it is yet to be determined – however, the media critics who have heard early snippets say: ‘it’s general sound is a remix heavy on the drum-beat’.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Income inequality is out, “ladders of opportunity” is in.
Eager to dispel claims that President Barack Obama is engaging in “class warfare” as he heads into his State of the Union address next week, the White House is de-emphasizing phrases focusing on economic disparity and turning instead to messages about creating paths of opportunity for the poor and middle class.

President Obama has been in office since January of 2009. It’s now January of 2014 and Dear Leader’s cohorts are still blaming George Bush….
Honest question: In the immediate months after 9/11/2001 the U.S. economy contracted and tanked steeper and faster than any single 3-6 month period in the history of economic measures. George Bush responded IMEDIATELY and forcefully with tax credits, tax refunds (checks mailed within 30 days) and a nationally delivered speech, the infamous “buy stuff” speech. It worked. If the same thing happened during this administration do you think they would be able to handle ?
I strongly doubt it….. they don’t have solutions – their expertise is limited to talking about problems, they have ZERO solutions.
(Via WFB) – White House adviser Dan Pfeiffer returned to a familiar Democratic talking point on Fox News Sunday, blaming the financial crisis “this president inherited” for the laundry list of Obama economic woes pointed out by host Chris Wallace.
After showing a graphic revealing median household income had decreased, poverty rate was up and the labor force participation rate was at a 36-year low during the Obama presidency, Pfeiffer implicitly blamed the Bush administration. (more…)
NEW YORK (TheBlaze/AP) — Dinesh D’Souza, the conservative scholar who made the documentary “2016: Obama’s America,” pleaded not guilty on Friday to charges that he violated campaign finance laws and was released on $500,000 bond. His travel was also reportedly restricted to the United States. (link)
The Blaze follows-up: The filmmaker behind the anti-Obama documentary “2016: Obama’s America” was released on $500,000 bond, which some — even in the legal community — argue was excessive.
We looked into these claims and uncovered a number of violent and disturbing offenses that resulted in bail amounts less than D’Souza was required to put up. While it’s not a comprehensive list by any means, here are nine cases where violent suspects had to put up less for bail than D’Souza: (continue reading)
