#2  Classic Obama. The bare is loose.

Think for a second they would take him off script - that when he turns into a 3 year old, mumbling and umming to himself while he draws lines.

Meanwhile the handlers and huddled up, coming up with angles and spins for a number of potentially leading stories, hoping for some que with enough time to polish what the WH wants led.

So enhance your tranquility, citizen! Only three weeks of keeping Obama spotless, then vacation time!

Obama plans 16-day Martha's Vineyard vacation on $12m estate
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] It's going to be hot tubs, basketball, tennis and golf for the first family this summer, having set plans for a 16-day vacation in Martha's Vineyard, Mass., on a $12 million, 10-acre forested estate on the southwestern corner of the island.

Reports from the Bay State indicate that President B.O. and his family will vacation August 9-24 at the 8,100-square foot, beachfront home of a Democratic donor that includes a pool, hot tub, basketball and tennis court.

It will be new digs for the first family, who have summered on tony Martha's Vineyard every year of Obama's presidency, except in 2012 when he was running for reelection.

The Vineyard Gazette reported that the White House has no major or public events planned for the almost three weeks, typical at this stage of a presidential vacation.

The Cape Cod Times reported that several local stores typically visited by the president and his family during the past five Obama trips are making plans to welcome them, including famous Mad Martha's Ice Cream which last year developed a new flavor called "Barack My World," espresso ice cream, macadamia nuts and caramel.

Obama is expected to be accompanied by top aide Valerie Jarrett, a regular summer resident of Oak Bluffs, one of the island's bigger towns.

#5  Otis AFB in Sandwich is rumored to be the next Mass. dumping ground (after Lynn, MA). Jim Cummings is sheriff of Barnstable County (basically, most of the Cape excluding Martha's Vineyard & Nantucket Island). I wonder if he's got the balls to pull a stunt like that.

The Fake Indian Hypocrisy Tour Rolls On
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren's PAC has raised tens of thousands of dollars from wealthy Democrats, including a top President Obama donor and a close friend of Hillary Clinton's -- even as the Bay State lawmaker travels the country blasting big business and the super rich.

Among the most recent donors with the deepest pockets who gave to Warren's PAC for a Level Playing Field, according to its latest federal filing:

Hundreds Of Cities Fight Back Against 'Invasion'
[WND] A massive protest scheduled for July 18 and 19 across the United States is aimed at stopping the influx of Central American children flooding across the border, and more than a dozen smaller community protests already have played roles in stopping the children from being brought there.

Citizens in Westminster, Maryland; Oracle, Arizona; Vassar, Michigan; Greece, New York, and many other places have blocked the importation of illegal aliens into their communities through public protests, letters and official resolutions from elected leaders.

Cheney: B.O. "worst president in my lifetime"
[THELEAD.BLOGS.CNN] Although a fierce critic of Barack Obama
Because I won...
, former Vice President Dick Cheney does not support calls from some on the far right of his party to impeach him, saying it would simply create a distraction.

"I'm not prepared at this point to call for the impeachment of the President," Cheney said in an interview with CNN's "The Lead with Jake Tapper."

Cheney believes Obama is "the worst president of my lifetime" and that "Jimmy Carter
... the worst president ever. Maybe the second worst. The votes aren't all in yet...
might have been a better President," but impeaching him is not going to accomplish much.

#1  Not to bust Cheney's bubble but the setting up of PERMANENT + UNCHALLENGED OWG-NWO is likely to continue after the Bammer formally leaves office in Jan. 2017.

As a matter of potential post-Obama, pro-OWG-NWO GEOPOL ANARCHY + CHAOS, by-n-for OWG-NWO, the Bammer's GOP-DEM successor MAY BE MUCH WORSE, + INDEED TO CONTINUE SETTING UP OWG-NWO WILL HAVE TO BE BY DEFINITION.

IOW, DON'T FEAR OBAMA - FEAR HIS GLOBALIST SUCCESSOR(S)!

DON'T FEAR THE JIHADI OR AL-QAEDA, ETC. - FEAR THEIR LAWYERS + ACLU!

#2  I'd have to agree. I've never seen anyone screw things up so monumentally in such a short time (although living through this regime seems like a century). I may be paranoid but I think it is according to plan.

#6  Four! :(

In order for this not to be 'according to plan' and just be 'screwups' - Obama and his team would have to be very, very, stupid.

Obama is not stupid. (Foolish maybe...)
ValJar is not stupid.

I'm not going to underestimate their intelligence - you simply don't get to their level by being stupid.

They may be crooked, they may be liars of the first order, they may be evil, and racist, they may hate everything America stands for, but stupid they are not.

#12  Yeah grom... I know you are right.

We have the insider party with two sets of managers. Anyone bucking the status quot is marginalized and demonized... aka the tea party.

Until the Washington insiders of both parties are driven out, they will continue to enrich themselves off our money and take more of our freedoms no matter who is in charge.
Posted by: DarthVader || 07/17/2014 18:16 Comments || Top||

#13  Agree.

The Washington insiders pretty much control who gets nominated - if a 'non-insider' looks like they might get the nomination they will do what they (as well as their media enablers) did in Mississippi - accuse the conservative of racism and all sorts of ugly things. That wasn't done only by the local republicans - that was financed by the Senate Republicans as well.
They are playing hardball now to maintain the status quo. They would rather see a 'insider' democrat win a seat (or the Presidency) than a real conservative.

Senate Republicans paid for Mississippi attack ads painting tea partyers as racist: report
[WASHINGTONTIMES] Mississippi attack ads that painted conservative Republicans and tea partyers as racists were funded by Senate Republicans, RedState Editor-in-Chief Erick Erickson has confirmed.

Advertisements by All Citizens for Mississippi, which attacked state Sen. Chris McDaniel and painted conservatives as racists, were partly funded by Sens. Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, Rob Portman, Bob Corker and Roy Blunt
...A Missouri political oligarch. As a member of Congress he was reelected six times without significant opposition. He married Roseann Ray in May 1967 and had three children with her: Matt (the former Governor of Missouri), Amy Blunt Mosby and Andrew Blunt, both lawyers and lobbyists. Blunt and Ray divorced after 35 years of marriage. Afterward, he married Abigail Perlman, a lobbyist for Kraft Foods. In April 2006, he and his wife adopted an 18-month old boy from Russia, whom they renamed Alexander Charles Charlie Blunt. He will be either a politician or a lobbyist or both when he grows up.
,
RedState reported.

According to documents filed with the Federal Election Commission, All Citizens for Mississippi received funding from a Haley Barbour-backed group called Mississippi Conservatives.

"Mississippi Conservatives, in turn, was funded in part by Sally Bradshaw of the RNC's Growth and Opportunity Project, former RNC Chairman and Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, the United States Chamber of Commerce, and the political action committees created for Senators Mitch McConnell ($50,000), John Cornyn ($50,000), Rob Portman ($25,000), Bob Corker ($25,000), and Roy Blunt ($5,000)," the report said.

Mr. McDaniel, who was narrowly defeated by Republican Sen. Thad Cochran
...establishment Republican senator-for-life from Mississippi, sometimes referred to as a 'low-life scoundrel.' He has been in the Senate since 1978. In 2014 the state's Democratic Party helped him cheat a Tea Party challenger out of a primary victory...
after being forced into a runoff, has called on the Mississippi Supreme Court for an emergency order granting him access to original poll books.

He hopes to prove that some people who voted in the June 24 runoff election that killed his Senate chances also cast ballots in the June 3 Democratic primary, CBS News reported Wednesday.

Right and left finally agree: Obama has checked out
[MarketWatch] Checked out or evicted, either way, we seem to be entering what Rogers called 'the world of the post-Obama presidency.'

#1  As I've said before, one way to justify OWG Global federal Union is to force two or more regional states to rely on one another for simple survival - by this scope, THE MORE ANARCHIES + CHAOS, ETC. THE BETTER FOR SETTING UP OWG-NWO + GLOBAL FEDERAL UNIONS.

Iff Obama-the-Globalist intends to create as much of the abobe as possible before he leaves office in Jan 2017, then its prob safe to say that mainstream America = Amerika, + even the International Community, should expect even MORE + WORSE ANARCHIES + CHAOSES to come.

THE GLOBIES ARE IN BOTH MAJOR US POLITICAL PARTIES, SO IT WON'T BE ENOUGH NOR SAFE JUST TO ELECT A GOP'ER TO BE POTUS AFTER JAN. 2017.

As a reminder, the Bammer = USA hasn't even begun defending his mighty "red lines" agz CHINA yet.

As illustrated most recently by Central America sending 00,000's of their children to the Rio Grande to enter the US illegally, America's rivals have begun making their strategic moves while Anti-US US Globalist Obama whom is also the "weakest/worst US President in history" is in the White House.

Unless China knows already whom Obama's POTUS successor will be come Jan. 2017, IT IS UNLIKELY TO WAIT UNTIL JAPAN ANDOR ASEAN NATIONS IN EAST ASIA GO NUCLEAR TO ACHIEVE ITS STRATEGIC ACCESS VEE THE "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN" INTO WESTPAC.

Mid-Summer 2014 - Jan. 2017 = still mucho mucho plenty of time for Globalist shennanigans = geopol havoc to be UNILATERALLY + INTENTIONALLY incurred.

Disagree. There is a huge reward from the leftards for this man if he can continue to fundamentally change the entire country to a third world sh*t hole like Detroit of Chicago. He has a lot more moves he intends to make before while he still holds the most powerful office in the world.

After criticizing White House over unaccompanied minors, Martin O'Malley said don't send them to Maryland site
[POLITICALTICKER.BLOGS.CNN] After his strong criticism of the B.O. regime's plans to return thousands of young undocumented migrants back to Central America, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley
...Democratic governor of Maryland and aspiring presidential candidate, known locally as The One-Man Economic Wrecking Crew. O'Malley was elected to his second term driven by union support and near-Stalinesque vote margins in Baltimore city (82%) and Prince George's County (88%)...
asked a top White House official that the children not be sent to a site that was under consideration in his home state, sources familiar with the conversation said.

"He privately said 'please don't send these kids to Western Maryland,'" a Democratic source told CNN. The heated discussion between O'Malley and White House domestic policy adviser Cecilia Munoz occurred during a phone call late Friday evening, sources familiar with the conversation added.

A potential Democratic presidential candidate in 2016, O'Malley surprised some in his party when he sharply criticized a White House proposal to give new legal authorities to the Department of Homeland Security to expedite the deportation of the unaccompanied minors and their families.

"We are not a country that should turn children away and send them back to certain death," O'Malley said last week at a National Governors Association meeting in Nashville.

Connecticut rejects request to house illegal children
[MYFOXNY] Connecticut officials have rejected a federal request to temporarily house up to 2,000 immigrant children from Central America at a mostly-vacant facility built for developmentally disabled adults.

The Republican-American reports the New England office of the U.S. General Services Administration has inquired about leasing space at the Southbury Training School.

The federal government planned to cover all expenses, including building maintenance.

Patrick M. O'Brien, assistant director of the state's Bureau of Assets Management, emailed back Monday, rejecting the request. He said the building was not suitable because of deteriorating conditions, complex state procedures for using surplus property, and the fact that some people are still housed at Southbury.
