Mr President allows top US diplomat to enter office $6M in debt

January 31, 2009

I think this says it all about our new president. Madame Secretary still has a $6M debt - having taking a 13 M personal loss. barry had $30M left at the end and the week before the election was spending money to run ads in Arizona as well as other places he knew he would never win - all the while not paying off Clinton's debt and not asking his donors to do so. That is the true nature of the man. Forget his words - it's clear how little words really matter to him as they are never born out in action.

Imagine for a minute if it were the other way around. Would barry have been allowed to get out of the race with any debt? What would be the outrage? Instead the media laughs and ridicules Clinton's mother for having to make last minute pleas to pay down her daughter's debt.

How many stump appearances do Clinton do to get barry elected? And what about before he was officially coronated?

No other candidate has ever done that. And her thanks? Pay off your own damn debt wench.

Use your Clinton name, go stump while I go to Hawaii on vacation and on my world adoration tour, get your voters to vote for me - but damn if I'm gonna be an honorable man and pay my due to thank you.

How much actual time has barry spent in photo shoots? Filming documentaries? Making press appearances? Take 1/10th of the time and put it toward fundraiser dinners and her debt would have been paid off - including her personal debt. Gone.

And not a single person has shamed him or brought the issue up. He spends $7M to move the convention outdoors. He spends well over $2M for Grant Park. He spends untold millions on his world tour, the documentary commercial and his whistle stop trip. The Inauguration was well over $150M. He raised 3/4 BILLION dollars and yet his opponent is left to pay down her own $25 M debt.

His pick for Secretary of State he has allowed to enter her new job having lose $13 M of her own money and still owing $6M.

He has allowed the top diplomat of the United States enter a job he appointed her to - knowing full well that she would not be able more funds and her husband's fundraising efforts would be severely curtailed - and the national media says not a word.

At the height of his popularity in December he could have given two maybe three appearances and cleared her debt. He didn't. As his nominee and #1 member of this team of rivals crap, she was only able to raise $1.6M.

What does that say about him?

And who advised Mrs Obama about how to handle the press and her children? Who will be there to ask when she has more questions?

Clinton is there when anyone - the Obamas - need her but is treated like crap otherwise.

Words don't matter?

Nope. Not his. And he has no actual actions to judge.

What is it going to take folks for you to see who this man really is?

And you wonder why so many people do not respect him?

Burris contributed to blago's campaign

December 30, 2008

Burris does have some connections to blago but nothing significant even for Lisa Madigan or barry's people to attack. Every single person who has done business with the State of Illinois has contributed to blago - otherwise they don't get the business.

SunTimes' DAVE MCKINNEY & CHRIS FUSCO

Burris, his lobbying firm, his clients and a law firm that includes him donated $127,986 to Blagojevich since the governor took office. Burris himself gave $4,500 to the governor, including $1,000 last June. His lobbying firm, Burris & Lebed Consulting, gave $10,796 in cash and services. The law firm with which Burris is affiliated kicked in $5,000 for the governor. Burris' consulting firm has gotten $294,546.30 in state contracts under Blagojevich.

Burris' lobbying clients -- which were under contract with the state for $3.09 million while he represented them -- contributed $107,690 for the governor.

Evidently Blago asked Danny Davis first and he declined. He had said that on TV as well.

Burris said Blagojevich contacted him about the seat on Sunday night. But Burris apparently wasn't the governor's first choice. One of the governor's criminal defense lawyers, Sam Adam Jr., approached Rep. Danny K. Davis (D-Ill.) about the seat on Christmas Eve, Davis said. Davis turned down the job on Friday.

That was not the Rod Blagojevich I knew...

Courtesy of obamawtf

That is not the Blagojevich I knew.

That was not the Jeremiah Wright I knew...

That was not the Bill Ayers I knew...

That was not the Father Pfleger I knew...

That was not the Tony Rezko I knew...

He's known Wright, Rezko and Pfleger for over 20 years.

He has known Bill Ayers for at least ten years.

He worked with Gov Blagojevich in a professional manner ans Rezko served as primary fundraiser to both.

So where is this superior judgment? One little politically expedient speech in 2002 outweighs the lack of judgment in his decades-long personal and professional acquaintances?

What is it going to take?

Quote of the day: "Ever get slapped at quarter past six in the morning?"

December 5, 2008
Morning Joe

Willie comments on how much money barry raised: $104 MILLION for a total of $750 MILLION. Mika brings up Karl Rove's article in yesterday's WSJ about how barry basically bought the election. He did. It's just dawning on them? Think of how he outspent Sen Clinton and how close they were. He won 13/14 caucuses and she won the big states even though he was outspending her sometimes 5:1 like in PA and she still beat him by 10 pts. Now ask yourself how much of the financial advantage in the primaries was actually from foreign cash? That's another batch of lawsuit happening. Wonder how many lawsuits have been filed against barry and his campaign? I'll try to find that info in the drafts - I don't think I've posted that yet.

MIKA: You could argue he bought the election.
BARNICLE: He raised it. It's not cheating.
WILLIE shifts to Red Sox fans complain the Yankees buy the World Series.
BARNICLE (Bostonian): Ever get slapped at quarter past six in the morning?
MIKA: Do it! Do it!
He didn't...on camera.

And then barry's biggest lie (as concerns this topic) that has gotten very little press and as above wasn't mentioned is his fund raising was in fact against the rules...the rules of integrity and a signature. barry agreed to go with public financing and then reneged. Loud and clear unequivocal no doubt about it he admitted to it and it cannot be shoved under the rug or spun so it's not brought up. Just a general whoa each time more money pours in.

If there is anyone who does not believe that barry's race was an ADVANTAGE in this election then I hope you live another year because by then the books will have been written - especially by black folks like Shelby Steele - to prove it in black and white.

Dear Pro-Obama media members:

November 29, 2008

When are you going to stop trying to make everything barry does the -est ever? Yes. He raised the most amount of money ever but he did so because he lied about taking public finance. Though it's just a matter of time before all of his illegal foreign donations are exposed. And with all that money he got the same amount of votes as Sen Clinton - one can extrapolate what would have happened had they been on an equal financial footing. As it was, he outspent Sen Clinton by as much as 5-1 and per vote barry outspent McCain by $4.

Yes. His popular vote margin of victory was the largest for a non-incumbent presidential candidate but not the largest ever. Nor was his popular vote percentage. There wasn't the massive turnout you predicted. People were not voting in "record numbers". Record amount of blacks did not show up to vote. Only 2% more came out to vote for the first black president ever and the media has not done a story on what that says about Black America.

Yes. He used the internet in a novel way compared to the last election for a simple reason: Youtube and Facebook hadn't been invented yet. And Google is based in Chicago, which made it easy for Googleman to get involved.

Yes. He is picking his Cabinet quicker than anyone. It's because no president has ever had such problems facing him. In particular, the economy that can't wait another two months and now with India neither can national security and foreign diplomacy.

And yes. He has had the largest media assist in campaign history. That no longer has to be proven - by us or anyone else. But the constant comparison to previous presidents absolutely has to stop. barry has done absolutely nothing except name part of his Cabinet that cannot even make an impact until after he is inaugurated. So can you please please please stop the lovefest? Or at least wait until he's done something to deserve it?

Dear Pro-Obama media members:

Would you please ask Ben LaBolt to release the total dollar amount of illegal campaign money he has/has had/will have to return? And why do you still need to be asked to do your job when your man is the president-elect?

Poll: Obama & the economy

November 12, 2008
Quinnipiac poll (Nov 6-10)

Will Obama be:
Good or great president 62%
So-so or bad 22%
Don't know 16%

Will the economy be better in 4 years?
No 11%
Yes 70%
Democrats 88%
Independents 67%
Republicans 50%

The obamerized who think he is going to be a great president are going to be very disillusioned. So much so they won't need to hear I told you so.

No new trial for Barry's convicted felon friend

November 12, 2008

U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve denied barry's friend and former campaign finance advisor and convicted felon, Tony Rezko's request for a new trial. Too bad he got the same judge that revoked his bail and threw him in jail. He hasn't yet been sentenced - ostensibly because he is chatting with the Feds about soon to be indicted Governor Rod Blagojevich. It was to make sure barry got elected.

Grant Park Victory Celebration

November 6, 2008

The $800 million dollar man hasn't paid for his presidential rally, which cost well over $2M. He promised to pay Mayor Daley $2M but has not done so. Unknown is the amount of money added to the federal deficit for the massive Secret Service detail required to secure the outdoor venue.

Mayor Daley had a hand in as well. Chicago is vying for the 2016 Olympics and having the speech beamed to the world from what would be the central location sure didn't hurt matters any.

And then there's barry's payback to Mayor Daley for his political career.

UPDATE 3: RACE WAS NOT A NEGATIVE FACTOR

November 6, 2008

Campaign finance totals from NY Times (as listed today)
Polling data from CNN (as listed today) and Wiki (today)
Numbers are not final so the stats may change some but not much.

RACE WAS NOT A (NEGATIVE) FACTOR
PROVEN ONCE AND FOR ALL
ONLY 2% INCREASE IN BLACK TURNOUT

MONEY WAS THE MAJOR ISSUE
2004 BUSH $5.92/vote
2004 KERRY $5.52
2008 MCCAIN $4.18
2008 OBAMA $10.20

A clear argument can be made that barry's biggest lie - reneging on his agreement to take public financing - won him the general election and widespread caucus voter fraud, proobama media bias, DNC favoritism and the illegal handling of Michigan voters - giving delegates to a candidate whose name was not on the ballot - won him the nomination.

There was not a "massive turnout" and blacks did not vote in "record numbers".
84% of Senator Clinton voters voted for barry.
48% said before the convention they would not.
That's a 6.3 million voter swing with barry's margin of victory +7,738,238.

BUSH vs KERRY +3,012,166
OBAMA vs MCCAIN +7,738,238
OBAMA vs BUSH +2,648,079

2008 Republican turnout -5,090,159
2008 Democratic turnout +5,660,245
2008 vs 2004 total electorate +570,086

Barry outperformed KERRY and GORE in every category.
He won male, female, Black, Hispanic, Asian and Other.
Compared to 2004: Hispanic 9 (+1) Black 13% (+2) White 74% (-3)
He lost Whites but got a net gain of +5 to KERRY and +1 to GORE.
And a net gain among males +12 to KERRY and GORE.

Republicans did not turnout to vote AGAINST a black man.
Approx 8 million (1/3) eligible black voters couldn't be bothered to register.
There was only a 2% increase with a black candidate.
That's the race issue that needs to be looked at in this election.

The true measure of the black pundits and politicians, who pounded barry opponents and pontificated about racist WHITE AMERICA, will be judge by their non-mention of it.

Update 1: barry's comments on his illegal alien auntie

November 4, 2009

Ok boys and girls all together now...he had no idea hi auntie was here illegally. Even though he sponsored her trip over nine years ago.

barry obamanated on Katie Couric. His body language gave him away again. He blinks and then looks down to the right. What are the chances they will check his phone/email records? And if it were "Hillary" or Palin? How much press coverage has he gotten in the last week?

CBS video

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.

classic obamanating. IF she is...I'm a strong believer...laws have to be obeyed...haven't BEEN ABLE TO BE in touch with her...as in present tense.

Why hasn't he "been able to be in touch with her"? Is there anyone on this planet who says no to barry about anything? Where is she being held? Don't "allegedly" illegal aliens get one call? The truth is ain't no way he's going anywhere near her. He knew it was coming, which is why he's been saying how dirty it's gonna get and not to listen to it. The true genius of barry and his campaign is being overlooked.

AP story discusses the investigation into the leak -"Feds investigating leak about Obama's aunt" not barry himself and the fact that she was here and how much he knew. There's nothing in there about how he initially sponsored her nine years ago and his responsibility for her subsequent stay.

And if the article was about Palin? They'd be hacking into her email accounts. Oh yeah they already did and how much have you heard about David, son of barry backer Dem State Rep Micheal Kernell? And if it were a friend of a Palin child?

Here's the interesting part. The Feds already had the information and they did nothing about it. I don't even know how to take that. And the INS wants to send back a woman who has undergone genital mutilation because "her genitalia already had been mutilated [so] she had no basis to fear future persecution if returned to her home country."

AP: Information about Onyango’s case was disclosed and confirmed by two separate sources, one a federal law enforcement official. The information they made available is known to officials in the federal government, but the AP could not establish whether anyone at a political level in the Bush administration or in the McCain campaign had been involved in its release, just five days before the presidential election.

Where's the investigation into why nothing was done, why it wasn't uncovered during the "excessive vetting" of barry and how else she has been defrauding the government? Wonder if she's got a driver's license?

barry's illegal alien auntie
Update 1: barry's comments
Update 2: flees to Cleveland

Dear Pro-Obama media members:

Please ask Obama campaign staffer, Ben LaBolt, how much dirty money he has had return to illegal donors - in the primaries and in the general election - and how much more will be returned. Thank you.

barry invented you tube?

Would someone explain to the pundits that the You Tube didn't exist in the last presidential election and that barry's use of it is not an amazing achievement? That anyone's use of it is a new chapter in campaigning? And would you also clue them in that barry has had the facebook and google CEO on his campaign from the start?

And can someone explain to me how it's legal to buy $100K worth of barry merchandise after you've already donated the maximal legal amount of cash to his campaign?

barry's illegal alien auntie

November 1, 2008

That was not the Tony Rezko I knew.
That was not the Bill Ayers I knew.
That was not the Jeremiah Wright I knew.
Now it's his aunt that he didn't know was in the country illegally.

Athena Jones, an embedded reporter with the barry camp broke the story on MSNBC. The aunt barry (his father's half sister) says he knows nothing about - even though he wrote about her in his "memoir". Evidently she sought asylum four years ago, which was not granted. Who was she seeking it from and for what reason? There has to be a record somewhere of his connection. Nothing is ever a coincidence with barry.

I don't know yet how she got here - who sponsored her or paid her way here. How with whom is she living? Is she on public aid? How and why did the story initially break? What has taken the Republicans so long? Maybe it was a neighbor who was a little short on funds. Maybe it was a disgruntled Hillaryite whose been going through the donor records for months.

Anyway she has been living in public housing in Boston and had donated $260 in multiple increments her cousin's campaign - unbeknownst to him of course, which they are going to return like all the illegal funds they have taken. How is he going to manage the free world when he has no knowledge of anything that comes up? How long does he think that is going to work? I guess as long as the pro-obama media doesn't turn on him. The press questioned him about it several days ago and they declined to comment until today.

Senator Obama has no knowledge of her status but obviously believes that any and all appropriate laws be followed.

When asked, McCain camp said no comment - it's a family matter.

UPDATE:
Bill Burton on Hardball just admitted that barry and his aunt Zeituni Onyango, 56, "have talked from time to time" and that barry was indeed the one "who sponsored her nine years ago to visit the Obama family in Chicago". Where has she been between nine years ago and four years ago? Barry, a constitutional lawyer, doesn't keep track of her after that? He did not know that his aunt was "in the country illegally" which is obamanator for he did in fact know she was in the country and did nothing about it.

Now you know why barry said yesterday: "It's gonna get nasty, I'm sure, in the next four days." How stupid do they think the nonbelievers are?

CNN:

AXELROD: The campaign issued a statement on that and I don't have anything more to add to it, other than I think people are suspicious about stories that surface in the last 72 hours of a national campaign… I think that they're going to take that, they're going to put it in that context.

...House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers of Michigan questioned both the timing and the source of the news Saturday, sending a public letter to Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff requesting an investigation.

...the AP reports that it 'could not establish whether anyoneat a political level in the Bush administration or in the McCain campaign had been involved,' a very disturbing (suggestion) indeed. This leak is deplorable and I urge you to take immediate action to investigate and discipline those responsible.

Surprising: "The Clinton's" were not the first ones being blamed. And has barry thanked them in any of his hourly interviews?

Barry knew she was here. She knew she was giving him money. He has some sort of paper trail of funds to her. He may even have had a connection to her housing arrangements. He knew it was coming. He knows there is more but knows it will not be revealed in time.

Would barry have passed a security clearance if he wasn't already in the senate? How did he get there in the first place? What kind of Secret Service do we have if they don't know all these things? My guess is that they know but don't care either. I wonder which job is more difficult - protecting Bush or Obama? My guess is Bush.

Buying the election?

Money spent on TV ads
Primary
Obama: $75 million
Clinton: $46 million

General
Obama: $205 million
McCain: $119 million

This doesn't include the amount of replays on cable TV or the production value or the negativity and/or inaccuracy of the ads. This part of a transferred over post. I need to look into the recent spending disparity between barry and McCain. It's a joke and it's based on a boldfaced lie by the self-proclaimed man of integrity's broken promise.

With outspending his opponents as much as 10:1, having limitless finances, a legion of attack bots, a thoroughly corrupt proobama media, why isn't he ahead in every state?

As far as the primary went. From Townhall's AMANDA CARPENTER (6-2-08)

The Wisconsin Project's study said "the advertising advantage alone, of course, does not explain Obama's victories in these contests," but notes "in the nine states that Obama won in a two week period following the February 5 Super Tuesday primaries, Obama, not only had an advantage in the number of ads that he aired, but in most of the nine contests, he was also first on the air and had the paid media airways all to himself for a significant part of the short campaigns. For example, in Nebraska, during the short nine-day advertising war, Obama was up alone, with his messages not countered for six days." Obama was "up alone" in Wisconsin for six days, and in Maryland and Virginia he ruled the airwaves for 7 out of the 12 days of intense campaigning against Clinton.

Special interest groups supplemented Obama's spending. [Which he lied about.] The Service Employees International Union has purchased more than $2 million worth of ads to benefit Obama's candidacy. This number includes an $800,000 negative ad campaign against McCain. Likewise, the liberal advocacy group MoveOn.org and the environmental lobbying group Friends of the Earth has spent $373,000 and $138,000 attacking McCain, respectively.

Quote of the day: "He didn't mean a word of it."

October 29, 2008
Florida stump

McCain: If you are watching this gauzy feel-good commercial just remember that it was paid for with broken promises. Senator Obama signed a piece of paper committing to public financing of his campaign if I did.

He didn’t mean a word of it.

The house of fraud comes a'tumblin' down

October 24, 2008

Well it's about time someone started proving the online fraud that is the Obama money-making machine. This man has not done a single thing legitimately but it doesn't matter because the country and world is in love with him as the messiah. The MSM talks about the spectacular campaign he has run and the cleanness of it. They should have listened to the non-Obamerized, non-Kool-Aid drinking, non-cult followers. He spoke about CHANGE! and he meant it. He didn't lie about No Old Washington. He has used the tried and tested Daley Machine method - the same one that got Kennedy elected. Axelrod was born into Chicago politics. Not a single pundit has a clue what goes on in the political arena that is Chicago - the birthplace of Hillary Clinton. Just think if she had run for the US Senator from Illinois...

Funny thing about it is Senator Clinton investigated the 1960 election and proved in her one example that the address was an empty lot. Then she worked on the Nixon impeachment proceeding. Then her husband was impeached. Then she's became the victim of voter/donor related fraud by the same Daley Machine that cost her the nomination and gave Kennedy the win. Cosmicity that once again happens to her through no fault of her own and no one listens because it's THAT woman. Oh well. Debate that if you like - it's a reality that will be proven and not long after this election is over. Mr Bill said he'd be ready to talk after the inauguration. And the GOP is finally doing a full court press. Biggest problem with that is Palin. Had he picked Romney this would be a whole different race.

Anyway, NEWSWEEK (10-4-08) pointed out campaign donation irregularities. Names are almost as creative as Mickey Mouse and the Dallas Cowboys - the Chicago Bears or White Sox would have been too obvious:

"Doodad Pro" of Nunda, N.Y., who gave $17,130, and "Good Will" who gave more than $11,000—both in excess of the $2,300-per-person federal limit. Neither name had ever been publicly reported because both individuals made online donations in $10 and $25 increments. "Good Will" listed his employer as "Loving" and his occupation as "You," while supplying as his address 1015 Norwood Park Boulevard, which is shared by the Austin nonprofit Goodwill Industries. "Doodad Pro" listed no occupation or employer; the contributor's listed address is shared by Lloyd and Lynn's Liquor Store in Nunda.

Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt said the campaign has no idea who the individuals are and has returned all the donations, using the credit-card numbers they gave to the campaign. In a similar case earlier this year, the campaign returned $33,000 to two Palestinian brothers in the Gaza Strip who had bought T shirts in bulk from the campaign's online store. They had listed their address as "Ga.," which the campaign took to mean Georgia rather than Gaza.) "While no organization is completely protected from Internet fraud, we will continue to review our fund-raising procedures," LaBolt said.

Ben Labolt is the one who handled Rezko donations. He knows exactly was it is going on but has been so arrogant he never thought anyone would ask questions - and they haven't. How much has the obama campaign had to give back? That is the number I'm most interested in because it will prove they have known about it and for how long. "Not completely protected by internet fraud"? They have the Facebook guys and Google has been working with him and the CEO of Google, Richard Schmidt, just endorsed him. And Obama has already washed the hand that endorsed him - or simply bought it. This is only from May. I wonder how much it is now.

According to ClickZ's KATE KAYE (May 29, 2008)

More than $2.08 million was paid to Google, by Obama for America.
Politico ($36,000)
CNN.com ($24,000)
Gothamist ($2,800).
$18,000 was paid to "Google Image Domain"
$2.06 million was paid to "Google Inc."

The NY Times has run stories about his PAC money, lobbyists and bundlers--aka Rezko in hos 2004 US Senate race. Three months and hundreds of millions dollars ago, The NY Times' MICHEAL LUO (7-10-08) reported:

Senator Barack Obama's campaign published the names of a whopping 181 new bundlers of campaign contributions this evening, adding to its existing list of 328 elite fund-raisers, after The New York Times made an inquiry earlier in the day about how complete the list was.

Reviewing records, The New York Times concluded dozens of members of Mr. Obama's National Finance Committee, who commit to raising at least $250,000, were not on the list, which is supposed to identify anyone who has raised $50,000 or more. In interviews, several of the missing members said they began raising money for Mr. Obama in early to mid-2007 and already exceeded their $250,000 goal.

It's all out there should anyone someday care. It seems the GOP has built some momentum but unless some major law-breaking tied directly to Obama. They won't be that stupid. Rule #1 in Chicago politics - protect the principle player. The mayor anyway. Rod Blagojevich seems headed to Oxford to bunk with With Governor Ryan, courtesy of one Tony Rezko. Judgment? The main obstacle is the MASSIVE number of voters they will have to wade through and there isn't enough time for that. And early balloting has already started. Forget doing anything about Ohio. It's the revenge of Kerry.

I look forward to watching Herr olberman, chill up my leg matthews, jonjon DISABLED INFANT Alter and he knows but is a coward howie fineman look in the camera and say they have/had no idea. How much worse can jonjon get? His reputation and whatever journalistic integrity he once possessed is gone. He sold it to the devil just to make his 2006 prediction come true. Chris rabid salivator Matthews will cry of course since "Barama"conned him. The biggest travesty will be the empty hope barry preached while defrauding his way to the nomination and perhaps the presidency.

Barry on THC

Another Barry obamanation. He wants to decriminalize THC but he doesn't want to legalize it.

(For the rest of the candidate's position on marijuana.)
1-21-2004
barry: "In terms of the legalization of drugs, the battle, the war on drugs as been an utter failure and I think we need to think and decriminalize our marijuana laws. But I'm not someone who believes in legalization of marijuana. What I do believe in (Do you even have a clue? or does it matter as to the day of the week and the polls?) is that we need to rethink how we operating in the drug laws and I think that currently we are not doing a good job."

Now sound bites can be used to support decriminalization and not legalization. Here's barry's true genius and practice makes perfect. Notice how he says "rethink" or "revisit". Ever hear any active verbs?
