What transparency (lobbyists)?

June 11, 2009

barry is still stonewalling attempts to force him be transparent on his “ethics” policy concerning lobbyists and his exceptions.

From CHRIS WALLACE at FOX:

The White House has turned down a second request from Senator Charles Grassley for a list of exemptions granted to President Obama’s ethics policy restricting lobbyists who work for the administration.

The Politico newspaper reports the Iowa Republican wrote to the Office of Government Ethics: “The American people deserve a full accounting — of all waivers and recusals — to better understand who is running the government — and whether the administration is adhering to its promise — to be open, transparent and accountable.”

Grassley made a similar request in March. The president’s executive order bars former lobbyists who join the administration from working on issues they were previously involved with, unless he asks for a waiver.

How long does transparency take?

And was he given a waiver for David Axelrod who is a lobbyist and had been acting as one during barry’s campaign?

Axelrod: Madame Secretary is doing "Great!"

April 29, 2009

Now ghoulish David Axelrod is singing the praises of Madame Secretary Clinton. Just listen to his words. Clinton- notice the tense - HAD A GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD. Yes she did. Even when she was lazily sipping tea with the ambassadors.

Maybe he thinks she acquired it while she was out stumping for barry before he was nominated while he took a vacation and hid out in Hawaii. Or maybe he thinks she acquired it between the Convention and Election day while she worked selflessly to recruit her voters while being trashed in the media for having ulterior motives. Without her voters barry would not have won. Period. Peraps he thinks she acquired her great knowledge under bary's tutelage during the transition phase.

Truth is she had it all along and only now when it's politically expedient, when she's helping barry and when he can no longer deny it does Axelrod admit to it. Says alot, doesn't it?

Barama Matthews is talking with Axelrod. Interesting first question. He's not so sure barry can handle the economy...why he just gave him an A minus.

MATTHEWS:

Is there a sense that she could be helpful to this and on the economic front politically at home. If it is rough going - that she could bring the Clinton coalition to bear on behalf of the president?

DAVID AXELROD:

I don't know. She's got her hands full. We've got a lot of challenges in the world and she's working tirelessly at them. So were not thinking about ancillary uses of the secretary of state. When you think about Pakistan, Afghanistan, the Middleast her dance card is pretty full.

MATTHEWS: How's she doing?

No hesitation.

AXELROD: GREAT!

I think it's been a wonderful partnership. The president chose her because he knew her as a rival and a colleague as someone who is smart, tenacious, well-prepared, HAD A GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD and all of that is coming into play.

And she's been a great, a great leading light in this administration.

Leading light. Not subservient light or rogue light or out for herself will only sabotage barry light. She actually cares about The American People and that is clearly evident in the way she conducts herself.

barama asks him about a scene from West Wing about Jimmy Smits picking Alan Alda and something about being inspired by it.

AXELROD:

You know that one of his favorite books is Team of Rivals. And I think he was inspired by that--mostly he was inspired to make that appointment by his knowledge and his sense of then Senator Clinton. And I think his instincts have been proven right.

barry and his instincts had nothing to do with anything. Madame Secretary is no different than she was in the July 2007 debate when all she knew was sipping tea with the ambassadors. and barry understood African villages because his father's mother lives there. And people bought it because of his "superior judgment".

And what did he do? Couldn't even conduct himself on the world stage. He said he would sit down with Chavez. Clinton said absolutely not - it'll be used propaganda. barry backed off during the campaign and first chance he gets he bows to the beast and shakes hands and yuks it up with the dictator, who called barry's predecessor the devil. Couldn't have asked for better propaganda footage - including their little not so private, not so genial chat.

I sure hope someone out there has the time and wherewithal to put together video sound bites of what barry and his camp -- that includes the media -- said then and what they're saying now. That's all that would be needed to prove their castration anxiety and gyne envy.

They want something - she does it.

She does it - they want more.

But before she started doing the very job she is doing for them - she wasn't capable of doing it.

The difference?

She was fighting for the same job.

Says all you need to know about barry and the rest of them.

Of the People, for the People...Madame Secretary of State Hillary Clinton

Emanuel was on Board of Directors of Freddie Mac

April 6, 2009

Bet this is another thing barry was "stunned" to learn. Why isn't anyone going after barry and his Cabinet about the financial crisis and their role in it? What is it going to take?

Rahm Emanuel straight from wiki. I'm not going to bother looking around for more info. This is enough.

After serving as an advisor to Bill Clinton, in 1998 Emanuel resigned from his position in the Clinton administration and became an investment banker at Wasserstein Perella (now Dresdner Kleinwort), where he worked until 2002. In 1999, he became a managing director at the firm’s Chicago office. Emanuel made $16.2 million in his two-and-a-half-year stint as a banker, according to Congressional disclosures. At Wasserstein Perella, he worked on eight deals, including the acquisition by Commonwealth Edison of Peco Energy and the purchase by GTCR Golder Rauner of the SecurityLink home security unit from SBC Communications.

Axelrod is a lobbyist for ComEd but in Illinois he doesn't have to register. barry pal, Bill Ayers' dad was CEO of ComEd. Frank Clark is the present chairman and CEO of ComEd, (part of Chicago-based Exelon Corp) and raised $200K besides a personal donation of $2K. Exelon employees donated $247,413 for presidential race and $270K for his state senate campaign.

Emanuel was named to the Board of Directors for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") by then President Bill Clinton in 2000. His position earned him at least $320,000, including later stock sales. He was not assigned to any of the board's working committees, and the Board met no more than six times per year.

Keep this in mind the next time you hear him talking about the economy, foreclosures and Wall Street and bankers' greed.

During his time on the board, Freddie Mac was plagued with scandals involving campaign contributions and accounting irregularities. The Obama Administration rejected a request under the Freedom of Information Act to review Freddie Mac board minutes and correspondence during Emanuel's time as a director.

How convenient. Another example of barry's transparency.

The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) later accused the board of having "failed in its duty to follow up on matters brought to its attention." Emanuel resigned from the board in 2001 when he ran for Congress.

The damage was already done.

In January, 2003 he was named to the Financial Services Committee, and sat on the subcommittee that oversaw Freddie Mac. A few months later, Freddie Mac Chief Executive Officer Leland Brendsel was forced out, and the committee and subcommittee commenced hearings lasting for more than a year. Emanuel skipped every hearing allegedly for reasons of avoiding any appearance of favoritism, impropriety, or conflict of interest.

barry's cabinet goes free and Phelps' friends go to jail

February 3, 2009

Whereas Micheal Phelps admitted to his mistake - these crimes were not admitted to until those guilty were forced to admit to them because they were seeking top positions in the United States government. Positions they were appointed to by the President of the United States who claims to have "superior judgment" as his basis to be president.

Apppointed by a man claiming transparency, who has fought and is still fighting the release of his medical, school and birth records.

Appointed by a man who has said on multiple occasions that no lobbyists will work for him and then promptly made exceptions. Not to mention David Axelrod, who was working as a lobbyist while he was running barry's campaign.

Appointed by a man who has admitted - the President of the United States - to not only smoking marijuana but to also using cocaine on multiple occasions.

words don't matter?

Clearly they do not. And he has no actions to judge related to his words.

Let's start with barry's cabinet.

TIM GEITHNER: barry: "common mistake" Geithner "careless mistake"

• Appointed to Secretary of the Treasury, ergo head of the IRS.
• Ex head of the New York Federal Reserve Bank - while Madoff was making off.
• Multiple year tax evader.
• $34 thousand dollars
• Initially blamed it on Turbo Tax - financial wizard??
• Signed a document saying he was aware of the problem.
• Did not rectify his taxes even after he was made aware.
• Did not pay taxes while working for the International Monetary Fund.
• Did not rectify his taxes while he was working at NY Federal Reserve Bank
• Did not rectify his taxes even after he was audited.
• Did not rectify his taxes until after he was appointed.
• Did not announce the problem until Senate Confirmation hearings.
• Had an illegal alien working for him.

TOM DASCHLE: barry: "serious mistake"

DASCHLE: "Make no mistake, tax cheaters cheat us all, and the IRS should enforce our laws to the letter."

• Appointed as Head of Health and Human Services.
• Tax evader. And what will the IRS do to him?
• $140 thousand dollars.
• Sid not rectify his taxes even though he was found out in June.
• Did not rectify his taxes until after he was nominated.
• Did not announce the "mistake" until confirmation hearing.
• Gave "speeches" for health care interests.
• Reportedly made $5.2 million dollars in two years.
• Is not considered a lobbyist because he was not "registered as a lobbyist."
• Wife is a lobbyist.

barry obama: "boneheaded mistake"

• President of the United States
• Ex US Senator, IL Senator and lawyer (not credentialed at present).
• Admitted to using cocaine and smoking marijuana - most likely via a bong.
• Sponsored illegal alien auntie 9 years ago.
• Although responsible for her - he allegedly lost track of her.
• Allowed his illegal alien auntie to go to his inauguration.
• Allowed her to not be taken into custody.
• Allowed her to leave Washington afterward.
• Allowed her to not be investigated for fraudulent government benefits.
• Allowed her to remain and not be deported.

BARRY: If she is violating laws those laws have to be obeyed. We're a nation of laws. Obviously that doesn't lessen my concern for her, I haven't been able to be in touch with her. But, it, uh, I'm a strong believer you have to obey the law. WHO?

"words don't matter"

Barry spokesman, Robert Gibbs: the president does not believe it undercuts their ability to move forward on an agenda that matters to The American People.

Barry: [on Daschle]

Take 1: Does he still stand by Daschle? "Absolutely!"

"words don't matter"

Take 2: it was a serious mistake, one that he caught and remedied. We still think that he is the best person to do health care reform.

"words don't matter"

Take 3: Tom made a mistake, which he has openly acknowledged. He has not excused it, nor do I. But that mistake, and this decision, cannot diminish the many contributions Tom has made to this country, from his years in the military to his decades of public service. Now we must move forward, with our plan to lift this economy and put people back to work.

"words don't matter"

Take 4: I think I screwed up. And, I take responsibility for it and we're going to make sure we fix it so it doesn't happen again.

"words don't matter"

Clearly not. And now the proobamedia is starting to realize how they've been played.

Final comments COLB vs long form birth certificate

February 10, 2009

Hi Terri.

Thanks for information. Don't be sorry about the length - you can write whatever you want. I put this out here because it will be my final comment on this matter...until he is found out. We've already discussed COLB vs long form birth certificate and the question of why couldn't the factcheck COLB just be subpoenaed.

A couple of points. Dr Fukino verified that he has a long form birth certificate on file in accordance with Hawaiian law.

So let's say it says he was born in Hawaii and let's say that the COLB is all that is needed to prove his eligibility to be POTUS.

Thing is she did not put the two together. She did not verify that that exact COLB on factcheck was derived from the actual piece of paper she verified. She did not "certify" that the Factcheck COLB is legal like people have said. She verified one thing and a non-legal no Hawaiian source "proved" another. No connection. No one has put the two together. No one but a website linked to him however innocently.

No matter. I'll concede 100% he was born in Hawaii, that his COLB is 100% legal and that the COLB - the factcheck COLB - is all that he needs to prove his eligibility.

I concede that all requirements have been met just like you laid out.

Now let's go to barry. He said that that actual COLB is all that is needed and that he released it into the public domain for the entire world to see. Some people weren't happy so he said go ahead and send it to a public website to be proven to be accurate. He sent it to factcheck who said yes it is 100% legal. And then he said because his COLB was proven accurate by factcheck- he is eligible to be POTUS. He then he said to factcheck release the COLB and the documentation into the public domain for all to see.

So he was born in Hawaii, the actual COLB on factcheck is derived from his legal birth certificate, that COLB is all that is needed to be POTUS and it is posted in the public domain for all to see as proof.

That's the key. He put it out there to be checked. It was checked. It was released as absolute proof. It was then posted in the public domain on a public website for the public to see. And yet no one has been able to see it. The public is left to believe that one site is all it takes to prove it is real.

So if it is real - 100% real - why isn't factcheck allowing anyone else - including the lawyers suing him - to see it?

It's 100% legal, right? It's already been posted in a public place, so what's the problem?

The public doesn't have a right to see it even though he put it out there for the expressed purpose for the public to see it as proof?

When you look at documents, do you trust one source? Do you believe that everything you see is true just because someone says it's true? You cited two websites below - so clearly you believe at least two sites are needed to prove your point.

So why has not a single second source been able to see a document that has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt to be 100% accurate? So accurate that it is being referred to in court - the Supreme Court - as evidence?

That is the problem. That is what is wrong. It is absolutely immaterial to me whether he is eligible or not. I don't like or dislike him. I believe he is a fraud and that makes me angry. It makes me angry that people who don't understand what is really going on with the birth certificate issue continue to make arguments that show they have no understanding of it. It makes me angry that they are defending someone they know nothing about.

It makes me angry that his campaign people, his wife and his vice president know things aren't right and yet continue to tell the American people to hold them accountable and when folks try he hides behind lawyers.

And it really makes me angry that the press has not done their job and is still not doing it. Some know the truth and have been intentionally withholding it and no one cares. Why? I understand why they wouldn't want to be the first to reveal anything now because of how foolish it would make them look.

Can they get any more foolish looking that they did with their barry fawning?

Chuck Todd is just figuring out how barry obamanates and he is angry because it is making him look stupid for not getting answers. Welcome to the club, Chuckie T. What is his book really worth? His previous reporting? His integrity - personal and journalistic?

As much as I am enjoying the fact they are finally seeing what the nonobamerized have seen since day one - or those of us in Chicago have known all along - it doesn't change the fact that they have not and still are not doing their job. And at this point it is too late. At this point there would be a revolt of massive proportion, not only in the black community in the US - eight million of whom (1/3 of eligible black voters) could not be bothered to register to vote, but also in the world.

You wonder why he gave his first interview to Arab TV? You wonder why he plans on giving a speech (what else) in Mecca in his first 100 days?

The US Government knows exactly who barry is and have neither confirmed or denied anything. They have seen his passport and I would hope to God they know where he was born and whether he became a citizen of Indonesia.

Why doesn't that concern you no matter what is in it?

Why doesn't it concern you that on Jan 14th barry and Biden met behind closed doors with the Supreme Court judges without anyone else present or a written public record of what occurred? Also present were Jeff Minear, counselor to Chief Justice Roberts, Gregory Craig, barry’s soon to be White House counsel and Alan Hoffman, Biden’s deputy chief of staff. If this was just a courtesy call - like it was billed - why the need for lawyers?

Why doesn't it concern you that they went in covertly?

Why doesn't it concern you that their private meeting took place without the general public knowing until after it happened?

That there was no fanfare. No usual barry photo-ops, no hoopla or speeches. A few pictures were released after the fact. (Very interesting body language.)

Gore and Clinton made it a huge publicity event as barry would have unless he didn't want it noticed. Ever known barry to miss a photop?

Why wouldn't a constitutional lawyer and first black head of the Harvard law Review not want documentation of his meeting with the Supreme Court judges prior to the Inuaugration?

barry has the press following him around everywhere with cameras blazing live. What event was more important and prestigious than meeting the Supreme Court judges for the first time, especially the man who will be swearing you in in a few days?

Do you really believe that oath of office was accidentally messed up? Why did Gregory Craig (present at their secret meeting) make them do it again? And why wasn't there videotape of it?

Why was Judge Alito absent? It was not by accident. It was intentional.

Is he the only one with a conscience?

Most of all, why does it not concern anyone that the Supreme Court completely compromised themselves?

There were cases before them concerning both barry and Biden. They had their little meeting behind closed doors and even if it was completely innocent, it was not appropriate legally. Hollister v Soetoro/Biden was to be conferenced on Jan 16th and on Jan 7th they had distributed Lightfoot v Bowen to the court to be conferenced on Jan 23rd. So they knew what they were doing and they knew it was wrong.

So how impartial were their rulings? They weren't. They were tainted. Period.

It makes me angry that barry people dismiss evidence that is presented to their face and prefer to personally attack the people presenting it instead of first thinking or considering or questioning why someone who claims transparency is anything but.

It makes me angry that my fellow Americans are being conned - even if it does not seem to bother them. I refuse to be conned as do the rest of the nonobamerized. The majority of the American People don't care. They prefer to call people who are looking for truth and those who have uncovered falsehoods and exposed frauds nut jobs and disgruntled whatevers and of course racists.

I believe he is hiding something. I know he is hiding something. Many things.

I believe that the media has been intentionally not investigating and intentionally ignoring what already has been investigated to be true. And we have plenty of proof. It has been documented on this site, our other site and countless sites on the internet.

That is what makes folks angry.

According to the IFC/Zogby Poll - 75% of Americans believe that media coverage influenced the outcome of the election. 93% believe barry got more coverage and that coverage was overwhelmingly more positive than negative. barry voters said this as well as non-barry votes. It happened throughout the primaries, yet Clinton got the same amount of votes.

Clinton people have a right to be angry. Actual minutes of coverage have been documented by independent agencies. The studies are out there. Objective proof in objective numbers that has been admitted to by the media themselves.This is established fact not based on personal voter likes or dislikes.

The media did not/have not vetted barry. It's proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. It is not just my opinion. It is absolute truth. The media have been ignoring irrefutable facts. Undeniable 100% true facts about barry. They have looked the other way on most everything that could have been damaging.

He could be whomever you like. What is not known about Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Joe Biden or Sarah Palin? How much did the press find out about Sarah Palin in 48 hours? They had everything from grade school to college records and beauty pageant footage of her playing the flute to comments from flight attendants on her way home after her water broke to hospital records in the area.

What is not known about barry is more than what is known and he has been around 2 years - not two months. It is not entirely based on vendettas or angry people whose candidate didn't win. People are angry because the POTUS who claims transparency is anything but. Go look at what has not been released by barry. They are absolutely things ALL of the American people have to know about the president and absolutely things the press should be investigating. Things that have nothing to do with his birth certificate.

You want to go on his "superior judgment" and claims of transparency - party on. What have his cabinet picks told you about his judgment? His exceptions for lobbyists? What about the fact that he has neglected to mention his campaign and now White House advisor David Axelrod is a lobbyist and was acting as such during barry's campaign?

And what does his need for adoration tell you?

Why didn't he go to Oklahoma?

Why has he still done nothing about the ice storms in Kentucky?

Why is he already seeking refuge in his house?

New cool is too cool

January 29, 2009

Yo barry put your jacket back on and turn the heat down. Your hypocrisy rivals your ego.

NY Times' SHERYL GAY STOHLBERG: The capital flew into a bit of a tizzy when, on his first full day in the White House, President Obama was photographed in the Oval Office without his suit jacket. There was, however, a logical explanation: Mr. Obama, who hates the cold, had cranked up the thermostat.

"He's from Hawaii, O.K.?" said Mr. Obama's senior adviser, David Axelrod, who occupies the small but strategically located office next door to his boss. "He likes it warm. You could grow orchids in there."

Obama's great-great-great grandmother's grave found

Grave marker of barry's great-great-great-grandmother's uncovered in Everett, Washington

According to STEVICK's article, on October 14th, Obama's great-great-great grandmother, Rachel Wolfley's grave marker was uncovered in Evergreen Cemetery in Everett, Washington. She was born and grew up in Ohio and then lived in Ohio and Kansas as a married woman. Her husband, Robert Wolfley, was a farmer and served in the Civil War.

"Military records show that Robert Wolfley served with Company A in the 145th Ohio National Guard infantry near the end of the war. It was a 100-day regiment formed to protect Washington, D.C., during the major campaigns that Gen. Ulysses S. Grant led into Virginia in the spring of 1864, Shipman said. He received a Civil War pension, which went to his wife after he died in 1895."

He was buried in Olathe, Kansas and she presumably moved from Kansas to live with her daughter, Addie "Anna" Butts and son-in-law, Nathan Butts, whom she is buried beside.

Mrs Wolfley died on February 8, 1911 at age 75 after a prolonged illness. I wonder what it was - 75 was a long life back then. And I wonder if her husband was wounded during the war and what he died of. She reportedly belonged to Methodist Episcopal Church.

Snohomish resident Karyn Weingarden and retired funeral home director, Jim Shipman, who once managed the cemetery, found her final place of rest after being prompted by a phone call. Strange how his grandmother, Madelyn Dunham died less than three weeks later.

Obama's Washington campaign director, Joshua Field, confirmed the story. I wonder if this much research has been put into finding Obama's African relatives by anyone other than Axelrod - so he can keep them hidden. Barry plays up his African Americanness and yet hides his black family and dismisses his white ones. Nobody but his sister, Maya Soetero-Ng, knows the truth and she isn't talking. The pro-Obama media has been noticeably quiet about his illegal alien aunt and about the burial plans for Mrs Dunham, but have written article after article about the potential first pet.

Obama's mother Stanley "Ann" Dunham was born in Kansas and spent her high school years in Mercer Island, Washington. She moved with her parents to Oahu, Hawaii where she met Barack Obama Sr, a Kenyan in the US on an education grant and in due course Barry arrived.

For the record, Barry Sr did not come over on a JFK sponsored airlift and Jr wasn't born because his parents got together after Selma (he was already 3).

Here is the extreme irony of this. Barry had no exposure to segregation. He was born in the most diverse state (which had just joined the union) at a time when interracial marriage was legal. He had never traveled in the south until his campaign. In fact, the first time he visited his mother's birthplace was on the stump.

He is African American in that his father was from Kenya - no relation to American slavery. He was not an immigrant and did not apply for nor become an American citizen. Whereas, his mother's family held slaves and fought in the Civil War (for the North).

So, yes, he identifies himself as African American, which he is genetically, but he is biracial and has no relationship to the plight of the Oppressed Southern Negro.

Rev Jesse Jackson might well be in a castrating mood while Barry lectured the black community about "their burden", "their responsibility" and "the need for reparations".

Barry's family is the one who may owe reparations - he is not a black man who is owed reparations.

One wonders how he reconciles this when he gets up and speaks for "black America". He was given a book deal (because he was the first African American President of the Harvard Law Review) to discuss race in American. To that end, his book of mythology chronicled the racism he was allegedly exposed to as a way to give himself credibility. Who can challenge him? Some of his claims have been downplayed by those close to him at the time. (I'd find the quotes but nobody cares.) For instance, no one corroborated his claim of racial epithets repeatedly scrawled on the bathroom walls at Columbia - though it would be very easy to check since he writes the admistration painted them over.

He created his story. He admitted to it later in his re-release Preface. He admitted to making up composite characters. Once his characters are called into questions - so his own. In particular because, prior to being found out, he had stood by it's integrity.

Who is left to vet it? Why was his grandmother sequestered away? His sister is the only one who knows truth as far Barry goes. Think of the enormous burden she must carry - especially now as she grieves alone for a woman that she alone has cared for for decades. Add to that the need to answer direct or silent questions about a brother who can't fly his ready at a moment's notice private jet to honor his late grandmother. He couldn't even find it in his heart to stay one more day to celebrate his grandmother's 86th and final birthday.

How does one do this and then not mention her death until the press found out about it later in the day? Totally not mentioning it on his first campaign spot with no outward signs of grief and then once it was made known shed a few tears for his audience. I can't judge him or his method of grief - it defies logic - and if he is anything, he is logical.

It's sad really. Listen to his own words and watch him say them. He speaks about not wanting to make the same mistake twice: missing his grandmother's death like he did his mother's.

BARRY: "Most people understand that if you are not caring for your family, then you are probably not the kind of person who is going to be caring for other people."

His mother, his grandmother, his aunt, who is in the country illegally (barry first sponsored her nine years ago) and then there is his his half-brother George living in severe poverty and his grandmother scraping by. One of barrys $2000 suits could make the African blood he claims comfortable for a year. George lives on $1/month and just wants to live without using his fists and without the threat of being shot or macheted to death.

How is this ok? How can he talk about "saving Africa" when he ignores the well-being of his own African family? Barry is being deified by the world while he neglects his own blood. He lets his aunt live in the country illegally (He knew and Axelrod knew) and then when she is discovered, he said he had no idea, that he hasn't been able to talk to her and that laws must be enforced. Who believes this? He says he doesn't want to make the same mistake twice and then he is too busy to go to Hawaii to comfort his sister, who is all alone, and who all alone knows the truth. I cannot imagine being in that situation. What does she tell her children?

Barry's words, as usual--as always--are just that.

My friends, what are you not seeing?

barry says no lobbyists...what about axelod?

December 26, 2008

barry likes to mention what evil lobbyists are and how he will not employ any and yet the truth is anything but. He has one as his senior advisor: David Axelrod. Axelrod runs his lobbying firm right out of the office he works for barry in. In Illinois, Axelrod doesn't have to register as a lobbyist so technically he is not Washington lobbyist, which Mr Transparency thinks is ok.

barry: What's most outrageous is not the morally offensive conduct on behalf of these lobbyists and legislators, but the morally offensive laws and decisions that get made as a result.

barry's outrage is morally offensive. Gov Blagojevich is one example of the crazy rules Illinois has - doesn't have - to allow the Daley Machine to flourish. Another used to great effect by barry is the *Present* vote.

UPDATE snippet 10-4-08 post

Ayers' dad was major bigwig for Commonwealth Edison. Exelon has been exposed as far as their barry connection. Not worth trying to dig that up out of the drafts. It's all out there. NY Times I believe.

David Axelrod, barry's chief strategist was (still is?) Senior Partner at ASK Public Strategies - located in the same office from which he directs barry's campaign -- a consulting firm that was basically trying to scam the public into a pay hike for Commonwealth Edison. They pretended to be a consumer group warning of an energy crisis, all the while being paid by Commonwealth Edison.

He says he's not a lobbyist because he never denied where the money came from and never worked in Washington. He is not required to register as a lobbyist in Illinois. barry saying he is going to clean up Washington - lobbyists in Washington - never once mentioning his home state. Now you know why.

According to (6-2-08) NEWSWEEK'S MICHEAL ISIKOFF:

Last year, [even as he managed barry's campaign - barry saying he doesn't accept money from Lobbysists] ASK last year proposed a similar "political campaign style approach" to help Illinois hospitals block a state proposal that would have forced them to provide more medical care to the indigent.

One part of its plan: create a "grassroots" group of medical experts "capable of contacting policymakers to advocate for our position," according to a copy of the proposal.

He didn't get the contract.

Public-interest watchdogs say these grassroots campaigns are state of the art in the lobbying world.

And especially suited to presidential candidates.

His corporate clients do have business in the capital.

Washington lobbyist.

One of them, Exelon, lobbied Obama two years ago on a nuclear bill.

Washington lobbyist.

The firm's executives and employees have also been a top source of cash for Obama's campaign, contributing $236,211.

Washington lobbyist.

Axelrod says he's never talked to Obama about Exelon matter. AXELROD: I'm not going to public officials with bundles of money on behalf of a corporate client.

Illinois lobbyist with direct connection to Washington lobbyists.

And he did it right to your face and none of you ever questioned. Still aren't.

They laugh behind your back at how easy it is. You, dear supporters, are being played by a master. That is his true genius - the sheer audacity of his corruption. I hope some documentarians of the non-obamerized type document each and every lie and then graph them according to the polls and general court of public opinion and his habit of sitting back and letting his opponent react first.

Works because the proobamedia lets him.

barry's true genius is manipulation and political expedience. He knows how to win and has done whatever he has needed to do to be so. Lie. Refine the truth as in what the definition of *is* is. Get away with whatever he can until someone catches him and then it's: I didn't know. You can see where the "grassroots" came from. Plenty of practice. And as far as hospitals, recall that Mrs barry worked at University of Chicago Hospital with the main responsibility of finding ways to turn uninsured patients away from the ER to save the hospital money. Pay to play? Mrs barry's salary went from $121,910 to $316,962 two months after barry became US Senator. barry reciprocated - as he was expected - by submitting a $1M earmark for U of C - which was denied.

There are even more connections through Mayor Daley, Valerie Jarett, Mrs barry, Rezko and Arab businessmen but I'm too tired to dig it up from the other older blogs. And as if it even matters. It never mattered. Ever.

I wonder how much barama matthews knows about any of this? barry stumps on lobbyists and corrupt Washington and how he won't deal. And right in the face of the obamerized stands his top advisor, Davis Axelrod, deceiving away. But it's justified because he works outside of Washington. That's why barry only talk about corruption "in Washington". He leaves himself an out by not ever referring to Illinois.

Why hasn't anyone wondered where barry's Gov Rod Blagojevich has been?

***

Kind of funny last sentence. They aren't wondering any more about blagojevich and corruption. It wasn't like we haven't mentioned it since the beginning. How long before they get to the bottom of the Arab funding of Illinois politics. I have a lot more about this but I don't want our site to get completely blown up.

barry says no lobbyists...what about axelod?

barry camp evolving statements re: Blagojevich

December 10, 2008

barry on blagojevich (12-9). Take careful note of the "we" changing to "I". He's already separating himself and preparing to throw whomever he needs to under the bus. Gibbs may be ok with that. Valerie Jarrett and Axelrod - no way. barry took only one question and again like 3-3-08 the proobmedia let him get away with it...not much longer. If he continues obamanating on this - something he needs to talk about - they'll be waiting like jackals on Jan 21st. I have a feeling his daily laudatory press conferences have just come to an end.

I don't think Gore signed up for this. Rerun of Mr Bill. He keeps his game face on though.

BARRY: I am saddened and sobered by the news that came out of the US Attorneys office today. But as this is an ongoing investigation involving the governor, I don't think it will be appropriate for me to comment on the issue at this time.

BARRY: I had no contact [shakes head] with the governor, uh, or his office, uh, and so we were not, uh I-I-I was not aware of uh, [looks down and to the right = lie] what was happening. And as I said, it-it was a sad day, uh, for Illinois and beyond that I don't think it's appropriate to comment.

Some comments by barry's minions from CNN:

ROBERT GIBBS:

(12-9) We did not know about this recent part of the investigation until today."

(12-10) The president-elect agrees with [Illinois] Lt. Gov. [Pat] Quinn and many others that under the current circumstances it is difficult for the governor to effectively do his job and serve the people of Illinois.

[Obama believes the lawmakers should] put in place a process to select a new senator that will have the trust and confidence of the people of Illinois.

Senior Senator from IL DICK DURBIN in a letter to Blag:

Beyond guilt or innocence, the charges against you raise serious questions about your ability to carry out your duties as chief executive of our state.

(12-10) It's a sad day for my state.

Illinois State Senator MIKE JACOBS:

(12-10) I'm not sure he's playing with a full deck anymore.

AXELROD on FOX (11-23-08). Maybe that's why he's been in hiding.

video courtesy of yesobamacandf**upUSA

I know he's talked to the governor, and there are a whole range of names, many of which have surfaced, and I think he has a fondness for a lot of them.

(12-9-08) I was mistaken when I told an interviewer last month that the President-elect has spoken directly to Governor Blagojevich about the Senate vacancy. They did not then or at any time discuss the subject.

He can no longer use his favorite Template 101: That is not what The American People want to hear. He used Template 101: I was mistaken.

axelrod's face language

November 24, 2008

axelrod's head has literally gotten larger. Maybe it's the haircut. His hair and eyebrows look a tad Luciano Pavarotti. Anyway he was on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. It's good video evidence of axelrod's transparent prevarication. He covers his voice fairly well because his baseline is monotonous by design. But that's about it. Watch how his head keeps shaking, he doesn't believe a word of it. Take note also of his closing his eyes and shaking his head like a kid pretending not to see. bill burton is the only good liar on this squad. barry's easiest of all.

This Week (transcript & video)
STEPHANOPOULOS The other big appointment on track, of course, is Senator Hillary Clinton to be secretary of state...

AXELROD:...People need to understand one thing. There's one person who's going to be in charge of American foreign policy, and there's one person who's going to be in charge of American economic policy. And that's Barack Obama.

He's going to set the direction, and he's going to assemble a group of talented and brilliant people to help execute that vision. So, and certainly Senator Clinton, should she be selected, fits that category of brilliance and ability. [fits the category not 'she is'] And he is assembling the best possible team to move this country forward, but he will set the direction.

STEPHANOPOULOS:...Will Secretary of State Clinton, if, indeed, she is nominated and confirmed, have the full backing of the president? And will she have a direct line to the White House?

AXELROD: I think it's fair to say that all of these appointees will [shakes head - no] have the full [blink - lie] backing of the president, that's why [blink, sticks tongue forward - lie], uh, he's selecting them,"The one thing I can tell you from working for six years with uh, barack obama, that he is [blinks - lie] someone who inv-uh, invites [look of concern, shakes head], uh, uh, strong [licks lip, blinks - lie] uh, uh opinions. [shaking head.] He, he, uh, he enjoys [microsmile] that. He [eye twitch] he-he [like his shaking head] thinks it's an important [furrowed eyebrows] element of leadership. And, uh, I think they'll [right eye twitches], uh [closes his eyes - oh no he doesn't], that he'll have a great [eye twitch] working relationship [shaking his head you know Hillary's coming] with his Secretary [flares nostrils in disgust] of State [right eye twitches] ] and Secretary of the Treasury and his entire cabinet. They are not [blinks - lie] going to be potted plants in their [eyebrows worried] departments. They are going to be partners with him [Inclines his head and makes quote marks with his eyes - in name only.] in governance and he is going to [shakes head] encourage that. And I'm sure [head shaking] that that's the message that he's given to everyone he's spoken to about potential positions in the administration.

Oh no he isn't. They're all lined up like little soldiers ready to be launched onto the train tracks one by one until it's just axelrod. Why Rahm Emanuel had to think for a while....jump ship now or get thrown overboard later?

It's not for the good of the country - it's barry revenge

November 19, 2008

Yesterday Senator Clinton was appointed by Sen Ted Kennedy to lead a subcomittee task force to expand health insurance coverage. An enticement really. A small bone to tempt her to stay in the senate. She is never going to get to manage the healthcare issue. She had lobbied Kennedy and Reid to create a health-reform subcommittee for her to chair and was turned down. They will make sure that she has nothing to do with it. And today barry named Daschel to be head of the Health and Human Services - effectively blocking her last avenue to healthcare.

So it's secretary of state or going back to the senate where she will have make it look good appointments on the periphery of healthcare. There is no way Sen Kennedy would hand off the issue to Sen Clinton. It would mean decades of struggle culminating with a Clinton name. Never happen. He would rather it take more time than hand it to someone who could get it done faster. Country first?

I don't know why people continue to think barry is this noble guy looking to "gather a team of rivals". He is acting now like he always has and always will. He is doing the same thing he did with the bailout - sitting back and letting it go down. He is looking to destroy the rival who made it possible for him to become president and wants to tarnish the last Democratic president. There is no thought of America first or the real fact that Sen Clinton is perfect for the job. The president-elect had 33 days of overseas travel - one night in Europe and no trips to South or Central America - and his opponent physically visited over 80 countries mostly in official capacity and yet she has no foreign policy experience and he's fit to be president.

Explain that to me obamerized masses. Convince me that he isn't there because of his race, because he is a man and because the press hate "The Clintons". Not possible.

The most important part of foreign policy is diplomacy and the most important part of diplomacy is actually being in the country, eating the food, talking to the people and knowing the customs. She has done that in 80 countries. And she has done it interacting with women as well as dignitaries. They love her outside the US, especially in countries where women are oppressed.

1-Health care is gone in the senate.
2-Healthcare gone in the cabinet.
3-Secretary of state depends on Mr Bill's dealings, which he has every right to not disclose.
4-Once disclosed, barry has the chance to permanently tarnish President Clinton - jeopardizing the future of his Global Initiative and all the people in need - which of course doesn't matter to barry.
5-He can rescind the offer (if he had ever meant it in the first place).
6-By the way it was an intentional leak so the press could demean her even further - just as they did with the VP ruse.
7-She takes the job - she loses her senate seat.
8-After a reasonable amount of time barry fires her, leaving her with nothing to fall back on.
9-He gets away with it because the pro-obama media rejoice instead of challenging him.
10-The pink-faced presidential failures who could have prevented bush and Iraq are off the hook.
11-barry and axelrod laugh and give each other a high-five as Iran, Syria and Hamas bomb Israel.
12-barry doesn't care (he never did) because he accomplished his mission: defeating the Clintons while fraudulently winning the presidency.
13-And those American People so obamerized with what he represents give him a pass because it was THAT woman's fault anyway.

barry's plans are proceeding nicely aren't they?

Ignorant columnists of the day: Richard Wolff & Evan Thomas &

Courtesy of Stephen Bliss / Bernstein and Andriulli for Newsweek

I'm surprised it's not: "In barry we trust". That's a stretch even for NEWSWEEK. Here's "Obama's Lincoln" by RICHARD WOLFFE & EVAN THOMAS. Not sure why it took two people to write - it's the same old propaganda.

"Two thin men from rude beginnings"? Stop trying to make barry's childhood sad and desperate. He was not poor - nor did he lack anything but his father - who he chose not to meet in person. That says more about barry than anything you'll find in NEWSWEEK.

The word came back from Obama's chief strategist, David Axelrod, who was sitting with Obama in Charlotte, N.C.: "Barack wants to lean into bipartisanship a little more. Even though the Democrats have won a great victory, we should reach out and be humbled by it. Figure out a good Lincoln quote to bring it all together."

Words not actions. And why couldn't barry talk to the man who fills up his teleprompter, which makes the pro-obama media swoon?

This is the only quote you need to read to know the cluelessness of this article. They clearly didn't hear barry's attempted roast of himself. "If I had to name my greatest strength I guess it would be my humility. Greatest weakness...it's possible that I'm a little too awesome." That, my friends, was not a joke.

"The most important quality may be humility, which both Obama and Lincoln repeatedly refer to as an essential virtue. Humility in this case is not to be confused with meekness or passivity. Rather, it comes from confidence. A Lincolnesque leader is confident enough to be humble—to not feel the need to bluster or dominate, but to be sufficiently sure of one's own judgment and self-worth to really listen and not be threatened by contrary advice.

He listens because he wants to cover himself - he wants someone else to ultimately take the heat. He is not in any way humble and the passivity is real - he has never acted and will try his very best to avoid it in the next four years. And that confidence = entitlement + narcissism = Messiah complex.

"Obama has unusual detachment for a politician. He observes himself as a kind of figure out of literature."

His detachment is real. He is an egomaniac who can't be bothered to rouse himself from his messianic delusions to help the peasants clinging to their guns and Bibles. He believes he is the reincarnation of Lincoln - only far superior in every way. He has allowed NEWSWEEK to propagandize his made-up and ever-changing background and spent the campaign trail trying to outdo each president. He even tried to equate himself to President Ronald Reagan in Germany. And for all his adulation - barry has done not a single thing.

"As a senator, Obama showed a notable unwillingness to take political risks by reaching across the aisle on controversial matters (in contrast to his presidential opponent, John McCain, who routinely sought bipartisan coalitions and was one of the Gang of 14)."

Hence the word obamanation. Forget the words - look at the (non) deeds. barry voted with his party 97% (29/30 key votes) and his dissenting vote did not made a difference. McCain, 266/335 - 79%. Look at the numbers: 30 vs 335 key votes. A senator who votes with his party 29/30 times and yet claims bipartisanship vs a senator who has proven his bipartisanship over history.

barry hasn't gotten to where he is because he is black? Senator Clinton is "tremendously qualified" for president, vice president and now Secretary of State. Imagine Senator Clinton trying to name barry to any cabinet position. Never happen. In fact - if barry were to have be enthe GOP VP pick - he would have been laughed at too.

"Obama's got a liberal voting record, and I don't know of any substantive issue where he's ever broken with his leadership," says Gingrich.

There you go. You folks finished with your books yet?

Stephanie Cutter waa-waas about Wright ads

November 4, 2008
MSNBC

Stephanie Cutter - a favorite to watch lie. She better hope she never has to go before a Grand Jury. She already demonstrated her viciousness when she worked for Kerry. She sent an e-mail to the MSM detailing comments Howard Dean had made that she said demonstrated that his opposition to the war was ''politically driven.'' Hysterical isn't it? What her own candidate has been doing. She had to have been the brains behind the let's paint Hillary a racist memo. Someday they will wakeup - the ones who aren't already axelrod psychopaths - and realize the frauds they are and what they perpetrated on The American People. Whatever happens is on their heads like it is with the DNC and MSM. You chose the candidate - you take responsibility for everything you and he did.

Anyway, she's complaining that McCain hasn't stopped the Wright adds that have only come into play ion the last three days. what they don't ever mention is that barry said it was a legitimate issue. She says that McCain hasn't gotten in the way of them. The Republican party is desperate his future is in the balance and he's going to stop 527 as a last resort?

McCain certainly set the tome of this from the start. Their only path to victory was to tear down Barack Obama [and what was the chance of that with the media?

MATTHEWS: McCain has not done this....Do you hold him responsible for this decision?

CUTTER: You know how this goes. You don't stand up its a wink and a nod What we do hod him responsible for is a constant negative tone of this campaign. He's running 100% negative ads.

No he is not. Lie lie lie. Don't know anything else. and barry's running 3-5 times more which dilutes the negative ones. Repeats that the only way they could win was tear down barry which makes the Jeremiah Wright ads ok. And why is she still whining? Tells you the (lack of) character of barry operatives. What is she doing as Mrs barry's spokeman?

barry, Ayers, Axelrod the lobbyist, Commonwealth Edison

"NO REGRETS"

Pix: Jeff Sciortino
August 2001, Chicago Magazine, "No Regrets" by MARCIA FROELKE COBURN:

[DOMESTIC TERRORIST BILL AYERS]: "I acted appropriately in the context of those times."

"Guilty as hell, free as a bird—America is a great country."

"I'm not that radical" [Barry: I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial.]

"That's the price I have to pay."

He says about not knowing what happened to his girlfriend who blew herself making a bomb (packed with screws and nails, not unlike what suicide bombers use) that was to be used to bomb an Officer's Dance at Fort Dix - the same place where now soldiers are trained before they ship out to Iraq and Afghanistan. The same place a group of six Muslims living in the area plotted to attack. See here. Quite a parallel between bin laden, al Qaeda and Ayers' band of cowards. He did not pay the price for what he did - his case was mysteriously thrown out because of prosecutorial misconduct associated with illegal wiretaps. Maybe that's why barry changed his mind. His father being a rich and powerful: chairman and chief executive officer of Commonwealth Edison, chairman of Northwestern University [Dohrn teaches at Northwestern Law School] and of the Chicago Symphony.

(6-2-08) According to NEWSWEEK'S MICHEAL ISIKOFF (emphasis added), David Axelrod, barry's chief strategist was (still is?) Senior Partner at AKS Public Strategies (located in the same office from which he directs barry's campaign), a consulting firm that was basically trying to scam the public into a pay hike for Commonwealth Edison by pretending to be a consumer group warning of an energy crisis, all the while being paid by Commonwealth Edison. He says he's not a lobbyist because he never denied where the money came from and never worked in Washington - he didn't need to register as a lobbyist in Illinois.

Last year, [even as he managed barry's campaign - barry saying he doesn't accept money from Lobbyists] ASK last year proposed a similar "political campaign style approach" to help Illinois hospitals block a state proposal that would have forced them to provide more medical care to the indigent. One part of its plan: create a "grassroots" group of medical experts "capable of contacting policymakers to advocate for our position," according to a copy of the proposal. (ASK didn't get the contract.) Public-interest watchdogs say these grassroots campaigns are state of the art in the lobbying world.

His corporate clients do have business in the capital. One of them, Exelon, lobbied Obama two years ago on a nuclear bill; the firm's executives and employees have also been a top source of cash for Obama's campaign, contributing $236,211. Axelrod says he's never talked to Obama about Exelon matters. "I'm not going to public officials with bundles of money on behalf of a corporate client."

Always a fine line with barry and his operatives. Lie, lie, lie ("refine the truth" - as in what the definition of *is* is) and get away with whatever you can until someone catches you and then: I didn't know. You can see where the "grassroots" came from. Plenty of practice. Recall that Mrs barry worked at University of Chicago Hospital with the main responsibility of finding ways to turn uninsured patients away from the ER to save the hospital money.

There are even more connections through Mayor Daley, Valerie Jarett, Mrs barry, Rezko and Arab businessmen but I'm too tired to dig it up from the other older blogs. And as if it even matters. It never mattered. Ever. barry was going to be president from the moment he spoke at the 2004 convention and it's clear why he got that job.

I wonder how much chris 'barama' matthews knows about any of this? barry stumps on lobbyists and corrupt Washington and how he won't deal with them even as his chief strategy is one - but it's ok because he works outside of Washington. That's why he always talk about corruption "in Washington". He has an out. He wasn't talking about corruption in Illinois. Why hasn't anyone wondered where barry's Gov Rod Blagojevich has been? I mean even the non-followers.

I have no doubt I could take matthews on as far as facts but I wouldn't be able to be near him or recognize him worthy of dialogue. Not that he is ever polite enough to allow it. He is a sexist pig. Period. As unrepentant a misogynist as Ayers is terrorist. But he's quick to attack any and all non barrybots--including a non-suspecting woman, ruining her career over something he has no knowledge of--saying Ayers is all about 40 years ago and they were just on an education board. He doesn't know anything. By choice or by design? That is wrong on many levels.

One thing is for certain: BARRY IS A FRAUD AND HIS CAMPAIGN WILL GO DOWN AS THE MOST VICIOUS AND CORRUPT IN HISTORY - AS WILL THE MSM. And I hope I will live long enough to see it. It will have made these months worth something, especially since it appears I have been abandoned by my fellow citizens. I don't blame them.

September 11, 2001 New York Times article, DINITIA SMITH:

AYERS: ''I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough."

''Kill all the rich people. [He was brought up rich, well-privileged and well-educated in an intact household.] Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that's where it's really at. It was a joke about the distribution of wealth.''

So, would Mr. Ayers do it all again, he is asked? ''I don't want to discount the possibility."

''I didn't kill innocent people.''

''...a certain eloquence to bombs, a poetry and a pattern from a safe distance.''

Ayers' lovely wife, Bernadette Dohrn, once the Most Wanted Woman in America pled guilty and received three years probation and a $1500 fine. Here's a list of the acts of terrorism they got away with.

DOHRN: Dig it! Manson killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, then they shoved a fork into a victim's stomach.

Now they are cowardly sellouts living like any other elite capitalist professors in Hyde Park, three blocks from Mr & Mrs barry. Just a guy in the neighborhood. And Axelrod? Just another corrupt Chicago operator. And Blagojevich? Just another corrupt Illinois governor. And Barry? Just the next POTUS despite a million things that would have long since disqualified him if he were 100% white or a woman of any sort.

The Double Standard.

God Bless the United States of America!

NO NO NO GODDAM AMERICA THE US OF KKK A! says the next POTUS' pastor of 20 years.

Independents have had enough already!

October 30, 2008

Yo, axelrod - 18 independents have emailed me this morning saying they've had enough of barry. They're wondering why he needs so much help to win. The view of him in the "Oval Office" sent them all over the top - 3 convinced it was taped in the spring before he had the nomination. 12: 7 black, 2 hispanic, 3 white said they have been waiting for barry's apology or endorsement of President Clinton to the black community. That it's the only thing keeping them from voting for him. All 18 are proven voters who crossed over when Clinton was running. 10 voted for barry - 8 for Senator Clinton. They're pissed barry is dissing the last democratic president whose economic policy allowed them to send their kids to college, pay off their mortgage and retire. They're pissed he is so arrogant that he thinks he can make it on his own and that he did nothing but sit back during the economic crisis. They're pissed because he always says "when Bush came into office" not when President Clinton left the White House.

These are the things non-obamerized notice because they actually listen to his obamanating and not to the deafening obamerized chanting change! when none of them can define it. And when barry tries, he shifts positions to suit the mood and polls of the week or maybe because he doesn't know enough about it or doesn't really care. All 18 think he wants to be President of The American People he's always talking about (but never to) instead of being The American People's president.

None of them said race was an issue but all 18 thought barry has used it throughout the campaign. All believe that the media is blatantly pro-obama. 4 women mentioned how uncomfortable (aka unpresidential) barry looked sitting in the White House meeting about the bailout and that he looks a lot different when he has his own camera crew. They wonder which one they'll get as commander-in-chief. 11/18 are women still angry barry never mentioned his sister or mother during his acceptance speech and find it suspicious he has never allowed his grandmother to speak freely to the media. They are convinced he is hiding something and that is what is keeping them from voting for him. And they are still angry that he wouldn't look Sen Clinton in the eye when he "thanked" her for speech at the convention - the speech without which he would have lost a great deal of her supporters who actively campaigned for him anyway.

These are the gist of their comments and I just got 9 more emails. I wish they would just comment here. These are the people who are narrowing the gap. 8-9% undecideds are a big swing. Each one said they could live with McCain because they are worried about Biden's comment of a threat. 7/18 are veterans who believed Colin Powell's endorsement was directly disrespectful to a fellow soldier and was based solely on the pressure he was getting from the black community. It didn't escape them how pro-Iraq Powell was and how it demonstrated - once again - barry's waffling on Iraq. 5/7 veterans said both would do the right thing about Iraq. All 18 believe that McCain knows how to assemble a Cabinet - none were confident barry can. All expressed reservations over Governor Palin and do not want her to be the first female on the ticket - they think it should BE Senator Clinton. All said they would have voted and campaigned if she was #1 or #2.

I don't care what you do. They asked me to comment publicly. I did.

McCain ad: "Ladies and Gentlemen"

October 24, 2008
Axelrod on Morning Joe

Responding to this ad by McCain and Biden's "he's gonna need help". Like it's a sudden enlightenment.

AXELROD doesn't respond - he spews the same template:

The American People are responding. People are have taken a measure of Barack Obama and I think they are comfortable with who he is, with the command he brings, the the sense of calm and reason and purpose that he's brought to this campaign. That's what campaigns do - they test you. Financial crisis...steady, strong, laid out clear consistent principles from start to finish. McCain was lurching from pillar to post.

Command he brings...sense of calm = he does not definitely have them. Where are the action verbs? The declarative statements of what he has done objectively and in reality? A campaign is a test? He has Sen Clinton to thank for that but it doesn't cover Biden's whatever. I can't shake the feeling that he knows EXACTLY what is going to happen and what their decisions will be. Where has Biden been all week? And McCain's "lurching". Nothing unusual.

Even though he went after Joe calling him a "political animal" - I've lost respect for Mr Holbrooke. He doesn't lie very well. His explanation for Biden's comments was almost as fantastical as Joe's himself. As Shakespeare said...the louder and more vehement you protest, the more guilty you are, e.g Lipstick on a Pig. And a former Ambassador to the UN should know better than to trash a host. These bots lose their mind (and their reputations) defending their chosen one, while he does nothing himself but proclaim from his stage overlooking the huddled obamerized masses that he is going to CHANGE THE WORLD!

Worst liar of the day: Stephanie Cutter

Stephanie Cutter, Michelle Obama's Chief of Staff is the worst liar out there. Somebody should send her back into hiding. The first time I saw her was the "lipstick on a pig" insult. She was raging and so obviously in a panic trying to cover for barry - her Irish face red and indignant. Me thinks she was most definitely protesting too much. They all were. I never knew there were so many democratic females until that day. Where were they when Sen Clinton was being bashed? There had to be close to 20 who came out and said it wasn't a sexist statement. (It was.) Now she's trying to answer for Biden being Biden and she has a tight smile on her face like your mother used to get when she couldn't hit you in public.

Obama devotee, Norah O'Donnell: "Joe Biden has continued his verbal gaffes out on the campaign trail, is that a big concern as you get ready for Thursday's debate?"

Ms Cutter shakes her head (good Irish girl can't tell a lie) and blinks giving her away. "I think the gaffes that people will remember (head shaking, blinking) in this campaign...goes to McCain's...it doesn't take away Biden's that play on You Tube forever."

Most of the Obama folks are bad liars...probably because no one ever challenges them. barry's body language gives him away so easily. Axelrod is a terrible liar (and worse human being). His voice, lips and shifty eyes give him away. Gibbs is an accomplished liar or at least able to maintain for his small video bites.

Obama chief strategist David Axelrod said Gov. Sarah Palin is a "skilled politician" who "had an assignment and she went out and she discharged it."

Gender code words: Just a pretty face.

"She is deft at going on the attack. For someone who makes the point that she is not from Washington, she looks like she would fit in very well there. These attacks all felt very familiar to Americans who are used to this kind of thing from Washington."

Waa waa waa waa...any wonder why barry is called obambi? Who's going to go face-to-face with Iranian Hitler? It's always the same 'Mom-mie, they won't stop picking on mee-eeee'.

Axelrod said her speech was riddled with distortions.

Always distortions. The truth for them is always distorted. Obama is an illusion. He is a presentation - a messiah (in his mind capitalized) without a plan. The bloom has long since gone, leaving a rotting droop.

"Right down the line," he said. "She tried to attack Obama by saying he had no significant legislative accomplishments — maybe that's what she was told — but she should talk to Sen. Lugar, talk to Sen. Coburn, talk to people across the aisle in Illinois where he passed dozens of major laws to expand health care reform welfare, reduce taxes on working families. So I think she had an assignment and she went out and she discharged it."

No significant legislations...true. His Illinois legislation was handed to him. Why hasn't anyone spoken up? They were vocal about it before. Identity politics? Survival within The Machine? Pay to play? I find this most curious about this election. The level of white guilt is surpassed only by black silence. What does it say?

"Maybe that's what she was told." Gender code words: Mindless bimbo. Updated to Wal-Mart and hockey moms...as in non latte-drinking soccer moms...which includes all those Bibles a' singin', guns a'slingin', bitter bowling alley babes who have antipathy towards those not like them. Elitist code words: They're racists. This is all so laughable. Pink-faces talking about racism in America..black faces saying WHITE AMERICA (who is this?) doesn't understand what goes on in black churches. Who is this stupid? Especially when Rev Rivers--why was he wearing a suit at the convention instead of his reverend collar that he normally had worn--says it isn't what normally goes on? There are not enough hours in the say to keep track of the Obama camp's contradiction. Nobody has bothered to ever question them and really what is there to check on? Barry has created his own mythologized fable (proven in many places) of early life. Who has really looked into his "community organizing"?

Anyway. The Democratic demographic term d'jour is Wal-Mart moms. (Wasn't Wal-Mart advising their employees how to vote?) It was racist when Sen Clinton pointed it out. Mindless ones, how many black hardworking Americans comprised Sen Clinton's demographic? How many hardworking black Americans weren't in Obama's demographic? It only leaves the white hardworking (blue-collar, Wal-Mart moms) demographic. Sen Clinton already had the Hispanic hard working Americans. All madness.

What's the black population of West Virgina? And how often did Obama campaign there? Maybe he knew he'd get an ex-clan member. Is this term even possible? The Clinton's with their long history of proven Civil Rights advocacy are racists - but an endorsement from a "former" white sheet-wearing grand wizard of the Klu Klux Klan of the US of KKK A that tortured and lynched Negroes for sport is just peachy? Madness...all of it. Now Obama's camp who said it was racist before is using the same term in regards to their opponents. The level of hypocrisy is staggering. How stupid are you cult followers? I hope someday you will go back and read the things the unmesmerized messiahless masses have been saying. Evidence is everywhere. Pro-Obama MSM bias is a prove fact. Reinforced here and elsewhere everyday.

Obama "caught a little bit" of the speech last night, Axelrod said.

Of course. What else would you expect from a man who goes out of his way to take a stand (with resultant consequences) and when he does he changes it. Present, oops I hit the wrong button, well I've changed my view because of...

"Sen. Obama has taken the whole thing in stride," Axelrod said when asked about the dig on Obama's stint as a community organizer. "I don't think he expected gingerly treatment for the reasons that I said. He understands they don't really have a record to run on, and this is what politicians do when they don't have a record to run on."

Hmm, understands they don't really have a record to run on, and this is what politicians do when they don't have a record to run on." Axelrod should have a pretty good idea what that's like, eh? It's all such a fraud and who suffers? Thse American people barry talks about but never to.
