Now’s the time to listen closely to what wasn’t printed about barry in Halperin & Heilmann’s book of salacious gossip. Has anyone heard what was printed in there about barry? This morning on Morning Joe, in response to Barnicle’s mention of The Onion’s Nov 5, 2008 headline: “Black Man Gets Worse Job in the Country” [should have been biracial man trashes opponents, consistent with his other campaigns, to win the WJITC], Halperin reveals an interesting but not unexpected comment.
MARK HALPERIN:
Obama, in September 2008, when it was clear he was going to inherit a really bad thing if he won, he would say all the time to his staff – I think kidding – ‘Is it too late to throw this thing?’
This prompted a laugh by the folks assembled, as if it was meant as a joke. It wasn’t.
Because there was still a chance he didn’t have to do it.
Interesting phraseology for the democratic presidential candidate – didn’t “have to”. Shows how much “it wasn’t about him”.
It says a great deal that it took until a month before he was elected for him to realize the situation – something then Sen Clinton was talking about even before Iowa, especially the impending economic collapse. And yet, even as he was “kidding” he was trashing The Clintons, allowing them to be called racists – trashing Sen Clinton even as she campaigned for him – allowing Sarah Palin and her family to be ripped apart and the most disgusting of all, allowing Sen McCain to be compared to George Wallace and then stating during the debate that McCain-Palin supporters were yelling “Kill him!” when his own Secret Service agents – the ones he travels with – said it was unfounded.
That is evil.
And folks are wondering why all he can do is talk about how bad things were before “he walked in the door”. He’s never gotten past it because he doesn’t have a clue what to do. Why would he? He had never done anything. During those 2 years, he was busy chatting and spinning and flipflopping according to the polls and his opponents’ positions and not really considering what he was going to do. His goal was to become president – not to be president. Now that he’s bored with being president and realizing how hard it is – even though he thinks vacations are possible, even during domestic terrorist attacks – he’s thinking about his next goal: to be Savior to the World. Something the MSM has done everything to make folks believe he is capable of, which many of you actually believed and some, incomprehensibly, still believe.
If he really understood the gravity of the responsibilities of the office of the presidency, he would have realized the situation long before Sept 2008. Like he did back in 2004 when he was a “belever in knowing what you are doing when you apply for a job.”
Here it is for folks who have suddenly woken up to the reality of who barry is and always has been and will always be. Those of you who ignored the evidence in favor of trashing the person exposing it.

Now, there’s some people who might be comfortable doing that – but I am not one of those people.
Three years later, he proved himself a liar for the nth time, saying he was persuaded to run…we know now by Harry Reid and many other high-ranking Democrats. A fine example of barry’s “superior judgment” from his own mouth. Anyone tuned into reality realized it started back in 2004 when they bumped the original speaker at the 2004 Convention.
And why did they want him to run? Because they couldn’t stand the thought of a woman running – a woman they knew they would not be able to push around or control as evidenced with her actual performance (not talk) in the Senate. They preferred the idea of someone with no past, no experience, no sense of governing and clearly no idea of the enormity of the job of president – because they wanted a puppet. And that’s exactly what they got. Because that’s exactly who you gave them.
How many families, friends and co-workers were divided because of barry’s false claims?
It was perfectly clear he had no clue even before Sept 2008. At the end of March, in his appearance on The View, he didn’t even mention the economy in his top 3 issues. And yet y’all bought it.
Y’all got what you wanted, so stop whining and pretending you had no way of knowing. You chose not to listen to the proof everywhere on the internet. You chose instead to say the most disgusting things about his opponents to help him win a job he was unequivocably unqualified for. Go back and look at some of the Newsweek posts if you’ve forgotten. Go back and look at your own words.
And you chose to believe a man, who had spent only one overnight in Europe, had more foreign policy experience because of his politically expedient without consequence speech on Iraq – over a women who had been to 60 more countries and 2 more continents than him. Your willing idiocy was confirmed when that man appointed the woman he accused of simply being a “teasipper” to the highest foreign policy position in the Cabinet.
Congratulations, mindless followers! Every single one of you who voted for barry or God forbid scumball Edwards – who was only in the race to split the vote in Iowa to give barry a chance – are responsible for his acts, whether you chose to believe it or not.
Perhaps you can now explain what that CHANGE! and HOPE! meant.
Well there’s been a good outcome to the girl’s high school basketball coach who made the blindfolded half court shot – Coach Joel Branstrome got the Final Four tickets he was “promised”. Hopefully Kansas will be there for him to cheer on. If you don’t know the story – he tells it in the video below – which also shows his shot.
Coach Branstorme’s a former Jayhawk walk-on turned Biology teacher and girl’s b-ball coach at Olathe Northwest High School (Ravens) in Olathe, Kansas (central, close to MO border). The team promised him tickets if he made the shot, which of course was a joke, which of course he went along with. They blindfolded him, spun him around three times and handed him the ball. He initially thought they were going to throw a pie in his face and when nothing happened he dribbled once and shot the ball. After making it, the students went wild, which he also expected, and it wasn’t until he saw it on replay that he believed it. The team felt bad and got him a $10 gift certficate to Chipotle, which he was delighted to get.
Some of the kids felt absolutely horrible that they didn’t have tickets. But that’s not what it’s all about. We got some smiles, it was a feel-good moment.
The video of course went viral, the NCAA heard about it and gave him tickets (including lodging and transportation) – just like it should be. The school’s media department should be congratulated as well for the great footage they provided.
This is a unique circumstance – Coach Branstrom is an educator, former student-athlete, head women’s basketball coach, and apparently, a pretty good outside shot. When we first got word of Coach’s shot, this was a no-brainer. He’ll be in Indianapolis as a guest of the Association, said Greg Shaheen, the NCAA’s senior vice president for basketball and business strategies. The fact that he took the prank in good stride speaks volumes about his character. We’re excited to have Joel and his family at the Final Four as guests of the NCAA.
Coach Branstrome:
Even though I was part of a great team at the University of Kansas, we didn’t make it to the Final Four when I played. [made it to Sweet 16] I am excited for the opportunity to participate in the greatest weekend of basketball at the 2010 Final Four.
With all the press, you can be assured the tickets won’t be top level, back row. Nice to see a good decent guy and his high school students get rewarded for something they weren’t expecting or set out to get.
President George HW Bush accompanied by son Jeb visited the WH Saturday to meet with barry. Reportedly, Mr Bush was in town for the Alfalfa Club dinner that evening and just stopped for a chat, which took place on the Oval Office and lasted a little over 30 mintues. The club is a “social organization of politicians and corporate executives” and the dinner was closed to the press. No word on whether anyone else was present. He walked in leaning heavily on his cane and when he exited remarked: “Good meeting, good meeting.” Meeting has a different meaning that talk or chat.
Yes. Sorry haven’t posted more. I’ve got lots of stuff open and more in the drafts from the last week or so. I’ve been occupied with rantings not fit for a public consumption. American women are in Muslim countries fighting for Muslim women’s rights and they are being raped by American men and no one is saying anything. And no one is asking the commander in chief or WH about it. And the media’s all reinfatuated again with the Plouffe PR bluff. How are people that easily deluded? So. Yes. I will have some stuff soon including birth certificate and Susan Boyle. Don’t know what’s up with Adam. I didn’t see him last night.
[It's] not within the network’s broadcast standards for Super Bowl Sunday. After reviewing the ad, which is entirely commercial in nature, our standards and practices department decided not to accept this particular spot. We are always open to working with a client on alternative submissions.
Not sure how serious the client “mancrunch.com” was about paying for an ad anyway. The spot I saw looked like a quick production SNL spoof.
Doesn’t matter. They got their press and made a point or vice versa depending on their true intentions.
Just one question I hope the ad answers: Why would an Evangelical Christian pregnant woman be going to a doctor who would recommend abortion in any situation?
What I found interesting in all these pix – besides Rahm Emanuel trying to listen in (pix 3) – is the Secret Service agent. The SS agents he had at the Bulls’ game tried to blend in with casual clothes but their eyes and the size of their hands (and the fact they were always in front and ready) gave them away. Here it’s the agent’s backside.
Nice to know the president has priorites. Interesting how the cadence of his voice changes depending on the situation – the part of Harry Reid’s comments that got overlooked.
I can’t watch a full game unfortuantely…once it get’s to the Final Four I will watch all the games.
Video clip played on Morning Joe:
BARRY to Clark Kellogg: After retirement, I’m coming after your job, partner. Just letting ya know. You either have three more years or seven – I’m not sure which.
This had to be a setup question. Watch Mr Lundquist (who doesn’t look well) as he waits for the punchline.
VERNE LUNDQUIST: You’re obviously a left-hander – do you have any problems at all going to your right?
BARRY: You know, uh, I went to the Republican House Caucus just yesterday to prove I can go to my right once in a while. But there’s no doubt I’ve got a stronger left hand.
Enjoyed this video comment.
btwall60 -this I pray:
Dear Lord: Let me turn on my TV on day before I leave this mortal life, and not let me see an egomainical loon, who can’t keep his face off TV, but wonders why everyone is sick of seeeing him…And please Lord, do let some of what he does go on C-Span like he had promised in the first place.

Howard Fineman is another one of the creepies. His take on barry’s recycled campaign promises. What was really funny is how each talking head thought barry was talking directly to them when he said:
The more that TV pundits reduce serious debates to silly arguments, big issues into sound bites, our citizens turn away.
FINEMAN (0:30): I know I’ve been admonished by the POTUS not to indulge in sound bites because I’m a TV pundit, but I’m going to now indulge in one: If presidential leadership were only about giving speeches, the jackhammers would already be at work on Mount Rushmore.
Thing is Howie – it ain’t just about speeches and folks could not have been any clearer about that in Massachusetts.
OLBERMANN (1:50): I want to observe this is the problem with political pundits: I thought he was talking about me and you thought he was talking about you and I’m sure Chris thought he was talking about him. Everybody’s like, ‘He just mentioned me in the speech’.
He wasn’t talking about anyone – he was reading TOTUS. And Chris was too busy being enlightened by his pigment amnesia.
What to these people’s children think about their fathers’ infatuation?
