Posing for Photo with Norwegian Royals, President Obama Expresses Chagrin at Media

What media is now not a real news organization, cant be Fox we been over that and he lost, Is he ever going to accomplish anything.

Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.
Douglas Adams (1952 – 2001),
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

Did he explain how he bought the presidency…. and now people want him out?

Did he offer them a leftover ACORN cookie from Monday’s White House Christmas party?

From Obama’s acceptence speech:
“But we do not have to think that human nature is perfect for us to still believe that the human condition can be perfected.”
Fom Basics of Socialism:
“the case for the possibility of socialism: if we can somehow perfect our surroundings, we can perfect human beings.”
Karl Marx believed that the development of “human productive forces” opened the possibility — if the economy could be brought under the democratic control of the working-class majority — for “the development of the richness of human nature.”

“unfortunalety”? Oh come on, he loves it! It’s what he lives for. It’s his job.

“And in the meantime, the American citizens express chagrin at the man-child who was elected president with the significant help of the very media he supposedly expresses chagrin at.”

Cosmic irony, isn’t it??

Well, this is the “Entertainment Tonight” Presidency….

Is he the first to use a teleprompter for a Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech? “Sometimes war is the only path to peace … ?” Press corps – where are you guys?

Is there any chance maybe he could fix our economy???

We can only hope they will wake up someday and start doing their watchdog duties for the American people.

In answer to your question, Pence was speaking out against “big government” and Bush which is pretty much what he’s still doing now with Obama.
1) Pence opposed Bush on TARP last September.
2) Newsweek, 11/7/05 (around the middle of Bush’s tenure in office):
“How, then, to explain Mike Pence of Indiana? As a freshman in 2001, he fought President Bush’s No Child Left Behind Act, which he considered a Big Government boondoggle… In his second term, he tried to scuttle Bush’s $720 billion Medicare prescription benefit… This year, Pence, horrified by exploding federal spending, led a backbench rebellion against a blank check for the costs of rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina… While Pence has voted with Bush 95% of the time, it’s the other 5% that sticks in his craw. “I’ve had reason to doubt [Bush's] commitment to limited government and fiscal discipline,” says Pence,” … “As a lawmaker, he has ruffled powerful feathers by repeatedly opposing GOP proposals to expand the reach of Uncle Sam. But he hasn’t been a consistent foe of federal largesse. He backed a 2002 farm bill that steered benefits to his agricultural district. “I have voted for my share of spending,” he concedes. In penance, he has offered up some home-state highway projects to help offset hurricane cleanup spending. He’s even produced a five-year, $370 billion “hit list” that targets Bush pet projects like NASA’S return-to-the-moon initiative.”
3) USA Today, 10/13/03 re: Bush’s $87 billion request for military operations and reconstruction in Iraq and Afghanistan “Pence isn’t willing to second-guess the administration’s handling of the occupation. But he does intend to argue his fiscal case when, as he expects, the White House calls him today to lobby against the loan. Whether he will face down his president or give in to pressure, as like-minded House Appropriations Committee members did last week, remains to be seen.”
4) WSJ Opinion, 1/15/07, titled No New Taxes: Bush is still getting Social Security wrong. by Mike Pence
“The administration hasn’t learned from last year. Despite electoral defeats, it is still advancing Social Security reform as an argument over solvency. The centerpiece of George Bush’s plan was to have been personal retirement accounts for workers who wanted to establish their own nest egg–a much better deal for them and a down payment on the huge liabilities owed by the entire system. Unfortunately, his plan faltered.”
5) Washington Post, 2/9/05
“Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.), said: “The Republican majority, left to its own devices from 1995 to 2000, was a party committed to limited government and restoring the balances of federalism with the states. Clearly, President Bush has had a different vision, and that vision has resulted in education and welfare policies that have increased the size and scope of government.”
6) Opinion Times, 3/12/09
“Mike Pence makes the point today that Republicans need to humbly admit they are guilty as well of profligate spending during the Bush administration. And he says that the Obama administration is guilty of “spending on steroids.”

It’s good to see a right winger acknowledge it was Bush

I’m not a right winger – unless a conservative who believes in limited federal govt with strong state’s rights is a right winger.
And now you know the truth about Mike Pence. Try doing some research the next time before making assumptions.
