Obama Jabs Republicans and Raises Cash in City of Brotherly Love

“I’ve got a day job, I’ve got other things to do…”
“But nothing more important than raising money – and of course lowering my golf score.”
His “day job?” What a telling remark. Many a truth is said in jest.

Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401Ks, took trillions in TARP money, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes? Yeah, me neither.
Obama and Democrats get my vote, the choice is simple. If you have Social Security, Medicare, the right to vote, the right to an education, a clean park or a lake near you. If you were given a disability check or a wheel chair ramp into the store you buy your food, if you like safe bridges, clean drinking water, clean air and a nontoxic environment, if you feel safe when you fly, or eat out, or give your child a toy, then it’s time you give Liberals the credit they deserve.
The President promised that he would go after Wall St. regardless of the cost…and he did it. He promised to pass Health Care Reform and followed through. The President negotiated a nuke reduction deal with Russia, re-engineered the Afghanistan war, brought Osama Bin Laden to justice, and began withdrawing our Troops from Iraq. Have you ever seen a POTUS accomplish as much as President Obama in such a short time? Maybe you don’t like everything Obama is doing but I do believe that he and the Democrats are actually delivering to their voters what they said they would.
Like’em or not, the Democrats delivered:
Banking reforms:
HealthCare reforms:
Nuclear arms agreements:
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act:
Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act:
Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act:
Children’s Health Insurance Reauthorization Act:
Weapons System Acquisition Reform Act:
Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act:
Student loan reform:
Keep on truckin Democrats.
For Republicans, reality is a distant land that needs to be conquered at the expense of the Americans and their families.
I’m tired of Republicans. It was all a nice puppet show. Foolish elderly Republican voters actually think that Republicans are going to repeal the Heath Care Reforms and ban earmarks and bring “freedom” back.
Would you hire a confessed animal hater to run a pet store? No? Then why would you elect politicians who freely admit to despising government?
Republicans rally against regulation of industry, and then America sees how that turns out when BP spills a million barrels of oil in our seas. Republicans will rally against gay people, stripping them of civil rights, and then you find them tapping their toes in airport bathrooms looking for their gay lovers. Republicans will rally against non-existent communists but have no problem driving our economy to the ground with Karl Marx like spending of trillions of tax dollars that they borrowed from China for endless wars against enemies that did not attack us.
After the last ten years of watching Republicans one word stands out as defining them perfectly; hypocrite. A vote for a Republican is literally a vote for the absence of leadership.
Hands down, I’m voting for the Democrats for the next decade.

He talks about the Republicans attacking, even as he is attacking them. lol

“A vote for a Republican is literally a vote for the absence of leadership.”
The exact same thing could be said of Democrats.
2012 vote conservative.
Romney = Obama II
Obama = Bush III

“Hands down, I’m voting for the Democrats for the next decade.”
Firedup49, If they win we won’t have a country left by the end of the decade

I can’t believe this guy can fool anyone… except I know he fools a crapload of idiots.

800 contributors for $1 million comes to $1250 per contributor.
I love how the rich people love Obama, who protects the poor from the rich.
The poor people are giving to Ron Paul at $10 or $20 a clip.
That’s all they can afford.

The three reasons for Obama’s landslide defeat:
(1) Are you employed? Unemployment 9.1%
(2) Do you own a house? House values have shrunk to 2002 levels
(3) Do you drive a car? Gas prices at $4.00 per gallon and expected to rise.
So long, Obama

This article is inspiring me to switch from Comcast since the VP has enough surplus dollars to try to reelect the worst president ever.

For every two fundraisers that Urkel has, he loses 1% point in the polls. For every two rounds of golf he now plays, he loses another 1% point. He will soon be under 40% and once in the 30′s, he will NOT be able to recover. It just spirals out of control once you skid down to the 30′s. EVERY President that fell into the 30′s (Carter, the Bushes,etc.) lost their re-election bid. Obama is TOAST…..

It is amazing anyone takes anything Obama says seriously, he is all over the place on everything.
Aloof, inept and downright dangerous.

Feel free to discuss those “non-existent Communists” with anyone from Viet Nam, the Eastern Bloc, China, Cambodia, Korea, or the former Soviet Union.
Remember when the Obama admin took partial responsibility for the BP spill by banning drilling in shallower and safer waters? Remember when teachers unions actually had kids’ interests in mind when they protested Tookie Williams’ execution in CA? Remember when multimillionaire Michael Moore actually told a truth in any of his movies? When’s the last time you applied for a job offered by a poor person? When’s the last time you applied for a job, period? Or paid taxes?

Dear ApostasyUSA,
Get some new material! Copying and pasting from you HuffPo drivel of six months ago is lame.
Affectionately,
I.G.W.T.

Fireplug is a little uninformed,I see nothing there of value, a healthcare plan no one wanted and most of the things mentioned no one wanted either or asked for. Meanwhile, He has issued a back door order giving 6 million illegals amnisty though immigration,no one is allowed to bother them anymore. He has let in Chinese business men who have built 50 square mile intustrial sites in Idaho and 246 more of them are scattered throughout the US, tax exempt, and they impoprt their own workers and were given American citizenship regardless of whether they are muslim converts or communists. Hows that for starters, During the gulf oil spill he made 85 million dollars on that, simply by closing down all rigs, when they moved to Brazil he and George Soros invested in them,offshore account bingo!when they wanted to they closed that leak in one day, and moving right along,He has allowed communists to infiltrate our Government, George soros has worked and paid to get a lot of congressmen into office who are CFR members and socialist.Republicans can not win against them, too many of them. He has kept us at war for the whole time he has been in office, one of the reasons he won was his promise to get all the troops out, they are still there and there have been 3 more wars added to the turmoil. He said he brought some home, he did but replaced them with the same amount of new troops, that is not bringing them home.He has turned all of our water rights over to his idols the UN, Lakes streams, rivers ocean and the caribean and adjacent properties, including your rainbarrel. He turned us in to the UN for crimes against humanity and we had to listen to leaders from Sudan and Libya, yes Gadaffi , and all of the other raggedy assed nations. the first time we have ever been turned in for anything, he passed the farm moderniation act making growing food in your backyard illegal, with the codex code in it, all vitamins radiated out of food and your children will sicken and die at a very young age, part of the population control. Monsanto is king, he owns and makes almost all our food now while Obama eats organic. I can go on and on but i’m sure you won’t believe it, you can look it up under keyword though, then there is the high end vacations , the big one ccosting 200 million dollars. I’m sure you’ve heard of that. We will be getting a new constitution too, written up by the UN and expect the N. American Union to rear its ugly head, the Chinese and the Mexicans coming in and out are proof that it has started already. so fireplug,I’m not impressed with your list, those things are not important, the things I listed will impact all of our lives, not in a good way, I can’t think of one good thing he has done that effects me, the bank reform is a joke, you will be pauying a fee every time you pay a bill or make any transaction at all, so thats not a good thing. You have been duped, wake up while we still have a country left and don’t let this robot , this imposter tell you different, we are losing our country to a group he belongs ot, the CFR and George Soros. end of story.

What does Obama tell people why they should vote for him? I am baffled. “We’ve got so much more to do…We’re just getting started.” Does he means if he gets elected he will finally finish the country off and create riots in the streets like another arab spring?

Liberal/Progressive Haters…but then, they are only following the example set by their Child in Chief and his Injustice Department.

Barry Sottero is an unabashed ideologue.

There is nothing here to see…just go away until 2012 and vote this buffoon out of office.
He’s got a day job? We should all be so lucky.
He has more things to do? Such as? He never says anything, and it hasn’t changed.
If we don’t want to here the back and forth politics, why does he keep talking? Why doesn’t he do his job and meet with the GOP.
Never has this country been so divided.
Hey, I have an idea. If taxes are raised, let’s make sure everyone pays something; doesn’t matter how little or how much they make. Everyone needs to have skin in the game when voting. No more free rides for any non-taxpayer!

Oops…okay, before anyone writes about it..
I should have written:(changed here to hear)
If we don’t want to hear the back and forth politics, why does he keep talking? Why doesn’t he do his job and meet with the GOP.

Sounds like the whole thing was a set up designed to make Obama look like he has middle of the road defenders.

@firedup49
You should go do your homework on the previous and current administration. Party favoritism = ignorance. I’m a conservative capitalist, and I’m about to educate you on your president Let’s look at your list of accomplishments.
Banking reforms:
Oh really? Spending a trillion dollars gave us what? Stricter loans for the qualified?
HealthCare reforms:
Borderline unconstitutional and has physicians wishing they never went 200k in debt to become a doctor. Yeah, I want that guy operating on me. Terrible plan.
Nuclear arms agreements:
Iran? North Korea? China? Turkey?
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act:
Poke me when we have recovered.
Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act
Wow this is revolutionary. Hard to sue someone if you have no job though. 9.1%? Hmm, how did this slide up to the top of the priority list?
Credit Card Accountability
This was a high priority? Shake off the important issues so we can focus on the easy stuff.
Responsibility and Disclosure Act
See above
Children’s Health Insurance Reauthorization Act:
See above
Weapons System Acquisition Reform Act:
Yawn
Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act:
Amazing accomplishment. New warning labels.
Student loan reform:
Seriously, did you really mention this? All this does is save the US government about $68 billion dollars over 11 years. For students, the loans will look largely the same – same terms, same fees, same interest rates.
WAR
He ran his campaign in 2008 on withdrawing troops from Afghanistan and Iraq, yet he enjoys taking credit for capturing and killing Osama Bin Laden.
Mind you, Bush is who put the troops over there to begin with, which is what Democrats were up in arms about a few years ago. But I guess it’s okay to take credit for the big prize “since we are already over there”; Completely contradictory.
ECONOMY
Let’s take a look at who follows who’s lead here…
Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP)
- signed into law by U.S. President George W. Bush on October 3, 2008
Bailouts (in order)
Citigroup (October 28, 2008)
Bank of America
AIG (American International Group)
JPMorgan Chase
Wells Fargo
GMAC Financial Services (Ally)
Obama Bailouts
GM, Goldman Sachs, Chrysler
and continued by Obama…
General Motors (April 21, 2010)
Goldman Sachs
Morgan Stanley
PNC Financial Services Group
U.S. Bancorp
Chrysler
Capital One Financial
Regions Financial Corporation
American Express
Bank of New York Mellon Corp
State Street Corporation
Discover Financial
Obama is the leader of a dog and pony show. His second rate accomplishments do not make him fit to run the largest company in the world. The United States is a business; a big one, and it is clearly too much for him to handle.
The strongest thing on his resume is “community organizer”; he should stick to events and public speaking, because that is all he has proved to be good at.

Barack Hussein Obama.
A narcissistic, usless, BAD man.
He’s toast, in the election next year.
And I hope whoever replaces him will unceremoniously take his portrait off the wall at the White House (leave all the others, of course), and dump it in the garbage.
This guy is a waste.

Did obamma happen to say anything about the
RACE RIOTS AND HATE CRIMES

Mr. Obama: Doing what he does best. Campaigning.

“His speech was punctuated twice by hecklers, including some AIDS activists who have now made it a practice to interrupt Obama’s campaign events. Both times the hecklers were shouted down by Obama supporters.”
TWO times is not a “practice”. More MSM hyperbole.

Pick your poison, death by Aids or death by Obama.

The villiage idiot is at it again!!Here is a transcript of the fundraiser …Lie,lie,lie more lies even more lies….Now give me some money!!

Mr President please do not run as you have failed in creating JOBS and with your failure we suffer. Thanks.

Campaigning?? About what?? What could he possibly have to brag about?? How about just shut up with the fake “hood” talk, we all know Grandma(the one who raised you) didn’t allow you to talk that way. Do your job, produce some results and we will decide if you still have 5 1/2 years left, right now it isn’t looking very good for you.

Notice that Obama never takes a hard meeting with business people, he always goes to places where they either are indebted to his bailouts, or are unions or MSM, whatever … he isn’t showing that he American and Presidential, he’s showing that he has a thin skin and he is looking to be propped up and let off the hook, he doesn’t want to confront controversy .. at his last presser he took questions from MSM and didn’t call on anyone else…
He’s a fraud, and a loser.
Let’s kick his butt over the moon in 2012.. and then let’s hunt him down and investigate him and prosecute him for high crimes and misdemeanors..

We haven’t even heard much from most of the candidates, but Obama already knows they don’t have a plan? Isn’t that kind of like how Republicans didn’t have any ideas while Pelosi was locking them out of having any input? Remember the state of the union address in which Republicans just silently held up their printed plan that Obama and Pelosi would never acknowledge existed?

“…deliver us from evil.”

@JOE, Nice post, I like it a lot. Hard facts against generalizations always wins.
BUT
@Danola, @BradParker, @EdFromCA and @Joe, you tagged the wrong guy for the long Dem loving post. It was @APOSTASYUSA who posted the love fest for the Dems, voting all the way for them for the next 10 years. @FIREDUP49 was the neighboring post that was critical of Obama for using Air Force One as his personal jet.. Just setting the record straight. I didn’t want @APOSTASYUSA to get away with posting those generalizations and having @FIREDUP49 get pounded for it.
God help us if Obama’s in for 4 more years.

Are the Democrats REALLY going to run Obama for President in 2012? They ARE OUT OF IDEAS!
They would do better if they had the UNFIT John Kerry run again. Don’t they know the Barry-boy doesn’t have a prayer? His “DAY JOB” is almost over….thank GOD!
The big-talking, high-stepping, party-till-his a** drops, vacation-a-month LOSER needs to go back to the house that COMMUNITY ORGANIZED CRIME and TONY REZKO BOUGHT!

This foreign born communist spawn of islam has two more years to completely destroy the Country. Please let the two years end soon.
If he starts another war while on vacation in Rio, I’m going to scream.

Well, THIS Pennsylvanian will be working feverishly to help usher this fool out of the White House. It would not surprise me that many in the state didn’t buy into his b.s. this time.

These people will support this Socialist even thought he is dragging this country down into the mud, dividing us intentionally for his own purpose, while his own reelection numbers are in the mud.
To those who support the fall of the United States, I say, God forgive you, but I can’t.

Amazing as it seems, this is the best the leftists have to offer a country in an intermediate stage of self-destruction.
Can’t wait to see what they come up with when the fertilizer really starts hitting the ventilator in the advanced stages!
The sides are chosen, the lines are drawn. Let the games begin! Yeeeeee haaaaaw!

Banking reforms:
HealthCare reforms:
Nuclear arms agreements:
Gosh lets walk down memory lane and see where these got me:
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act: I worked at a University who squandered $7.1M on fixing the roof of the building I worked in. The workers did over $50k damage to the building and caused three department’s personnel staff to leave the office for several days from fume exhaust. The roof was not fixed, and when school started, literally ruined multiple students’ work and personal belongings. Who had to pay that back? Not the stimulus. Another great one is this restaurant that used street parking, and they used stimulus money to repave the street, and took away parking. He closed 3 month later. What acts have you witnessed? The $7.1M salsa went to lowest bidder=illegal immigrants. And I know since I spoke with them everyday.
Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act: Well this is laughable. A girl doesn’t get equal pay when they only hire males for that position. This act was rendered useless by the Supreme Court with the recent Wal Mart ruling.
Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act: You mean like how my sister cant get her CC company to re-open a card they asked to refuse new transactions, even though she has several grand available. At the same time, my husband filed bankruptcy 15 months ago, and has been recently granted several thousand in CC’s.
Children’s Health Insurance Reauthorization Act: it’s a war on the private sector.
Weapons System Acquisition Reform Act: Really? Because stopping legal purchasing of guns won’t require the market to go underground. Oh, wait…
Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act: Boo! Cigarettes may kill you! This act is a violation of people’s civil rights. Same University banned smoking on campus, violators were ticketed by campus police. If they refused to pay, a hold went onto their account and they weren’t allowed to learn anymore. That sounds necessary, and equal. Also average lifespan has grown, not receded with cigarette use. The University received more money from the GED for doing this.
Student loan reform: there wasn’t any need for reform. They really needed to have the right to break into a person’s home with a S.W.A.T team because they didn’t pay their loans (oh, wait, it wasn’t her home for two years! New tenants moved in, but that didn’t stop the Fed). For full disclosure the Dept. of Educations denies it’s for non-payment. They do not deny they have their own S.W.A.T. Team. So that’s what my student loan money is paying for?

Received more money from the FED. Stupid AT&T auto change. Didn’t notice.

The O sucks! Hope and Change in 2012!!!!!!!

Obummer sucks!

Just shows you his priorities-he wants the Congress to work through the holiday, but he can’t lead and accept the invitation to discuss the debt-limit with the Republicans.The Congress is burning the midnight oil to find an agreement,while he is at a fatcat’s house raising money for an election over a year away.He doesn’t give a damn about being a President,but he sure loves the trappings.There is no there there-without the media he would still be a do-nothing legislator in Illinois with an empty resume.Corporate jet tax breaks-what an idiot-THEY WERE IN HIS STIMULUS BILL!!!

I haven’t heard one word from Obumbler about all the black flash mobs stealing or beating up white people, have you? Imagine if they were a white flash mob stealing or beating up black people — you know Obumbler would be out there on the campaign trail calling them the Tea Party terroists. You know it!

So Obama states. I HAVE A DAY JOB and lots to do. HEY OBAMA YOU have a 24 hour Job. It doesn’t stop at 5. Obama is not Bush, Bush would get up at 7 and start to work. Obama gets up at 9 and starts work at 10 and works till 5 or 6. Then flies off to raise money for his reelection. Bush would go to the Texas White House and do real work, fix fences, or cut trees or get rid of brush. He would dig and plant trees. Obama digs, but in our pockets for green. Obama can’t recall his daughters ages, but can tell you what he shot at any golf games he played. Obama can tell you all the names of NBA players but can’t recall the name of the President of Germany or able to say her name. His wife and daughters leave for a few days to Kenyan and it cost taxpayers $800 K, Bush pays his own way whenhis wife and daughters went any where..
AM I better off now then I was in 208. NO. Can I say 2012 can’t get here fast enough. YES.

One and a half more years of
this petulant punk. I will
give my last dollar to any
opposing nominee aiming
to defeat this man.

“But while I’m working there will be candidates parading around the country.”
…says the man parading around the country during the work day – the work day that WE pay his salary.

“Traffic here in Philly came to a stop when Obama came through last night. All forward motion and progress halted. Interesting.”
Forward motion and progress in Philly? There are three banks on every corner in Center City. It’s all service sector and no production.

Obama produced a forged document as his birth certificate. If anyone else did that they would be charged with a crime. He needs to be removed from office and prosecuted. The fact that this is not happening only serves to make more and more people wake up to the fact that the political ruling class and the media in this country are corrupt as hell.
We had better find some honest people to put in congress and clean out the corruption in all of the bureaucracies and courts or this land is going to burn.

The funniest line so far is the one about he has been in Washington working while Congress has not. Hee Hee

“The funniest line so far is the one about he has been in Washington working while Congress has not. Hee Hee”
You people think it is easy dragging the corpse of bin laden to fundraiser after fundraiser?

He had a press conference and he’s leaving for Camp David today. I feel they are taking my advice from a few weeks ago. ;-)
But here’s where they are going wrong. The press conferences have to be it. Not the press conferences plus the photo ops in campaign states plus the fundraisers.
Also, you have to do better at the press conference than just pointing fingers.
Step it up, President Obama.

Obama cannot fix the economy because he will not address the real problems:
* Reckless government spending at ALL levels of government
* Massive public debt
* Oppressive regulation
* High and complex tax structure
* Obamacare – a jobs killer
* Little incentive to work – 45 million on food stamps
* High gas prices
* High food prices
Obama’s CHANGE has taken away our HOPE!!!
Our “leaders” are clearly out of touch with the lives of the average American. The huge increase in the price of gasoline combined with higher prices for food will mean Americans have less money to spend. That will stop any economic recovery. Obama must start sending clear messages that he will encourage drilling for oil everywhere, reduce the mountains of senseless and wasteful regulations faced by businesses and individuals, reduce the amount, number, and complexity of government taxes and fees, and drastically reduce the size of government or our future is bleak.
We must continue to VOTE THEM OUT!!!

If he would put the same effort into being president that he puts into campaigning, he might be a good president. (I really don’t think he ever stopped campaigning) But, the whole work side of being president seems to be a point that he has yet to get.
But, on the bright side….he plans to raise record amounts of money for his campaign…..too bad he won’t do that for the economy.

Hmmm, where did my comment go?

“Worth mentioning, imho.” – Gen
Yes but barely, as any president would have ordered the operation to get Osama once intelligence had a good idea where he was.
It was a decision we here in the US call a “No Brainer”.

“Ever read How Bush blew it in Tora Bora”
Sure did. Ever read that Bush knew about 911 in advance? Did you believe that too?

“Ever read How Bush blew it in Tora Bora”
Sure did.
–
Yeah, me, too. The point being the current president actually caught him and hasn’t left himself open to that criticism. So, shoulda, woulda, coulda. President Obama was able to announce that Osama bin Laden, the leader of Al Qaeda responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks, was killed by an operation he ordered inside Pakistan, ending a 10-year manhunt for the world’s most wanted terrorist. President Bush and “any other president” wasn’t able to do the same thing.
Worth mentioning, imho.

Posted by: Noz | Jul 2, 2011 1:38:01 PM
And government can’t wreck the economy, right, Noz?
And the best the right can come up with is some random quote from the Czech Republic, right, Chuck?
Kimberly’s right. There are some fascinating characters here in the comment section of Tapper’s blog. Fascinating, but not intellectually scintillating. That’s okay. I know how to lather, rinse, repeat like you do.
Ever read How Bush blew it in Tora Bora?

Yep, he ordered it. You have no evidence that any other president woulda/shoulda/coulda did the same as they did not.
Worth mentioning, imho. Another check on the accomplished checklist.

Did Obama ever thank Bush for the waterboarding info he got that started the lead which led the intelligence pros to Bin Laden?
Posted by: Noz | Jul 2, 2011 2:06:33 PM
It’s best not to fabricate information in an attempt to make up a better ‘truth’.

Obama would never thank Bush
Posted by: Noz | Jul 4, 2011 10:24:16 AM
Bush had 7 years to get Bin Laden – he failed to do it, plain and simple. In fact, he had Bin Laden cornered in Afghanistan and let him escape as he turned his attention to his pet, neo-con project – Iraq – which had nothing to do with 9/11.

A little skewered and over sensitive on the Bin Laden stuff there Steph.
I know it won’t matter to you but you are dead wrong about Bushie letting Osama get away.
But it’s Ok to go through life mistaken and wrong as long as you are pursuing your own special kind of happiness.
Cheers.

Steph, you are very confusing.
I am not trying to tell you that Bush got Bin Laden in Afghanistan or anywhere else.
I don’t know why you would think that.
I don’t speak liberalease so it’s best not to try and converse with you.
You don’t understand me and I don’t understand you.
(sigh)

Posted by: Steph | Jul 4, 2011 5:46:24 PM
No and no.
Happy 4th Steph.

Tommy Franks doesn’t give orders not to do something.
Don’t go here don’t go there don’t do this don’t do that yada yada yada.
He gives orders to do something and obtain the objective.
Your statement is flawed and inherently wrong.
You’ve been duped.
