Obama’s libel against the American people - “..Obama’s attempt to foist the blame for the failure of American capitalism on the American people is nothing short of a libel…”

Obama's orders leave torture, indefinite detention intact - “..In cowardly fashion, Obama staged his signing of the orders…”

Coward my @ss!

President Obama is doing a total reversal of Bush's policies & rebuilding our image in the world!

I hope...


Next up....Investigations for possible War crimes

Did you read the link? It's the World Socialist Web Site (wsws.org). MSM has been covering for Obama's past, snubs, flubs, flip & flops, etc. for over a year now, but they won't be able to once sites like that start in on him.

A few days in Office and the Dam is already springing leaks...

The World Socialist Web Site??

BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Why not link to moonbats.com? How about johnconnorwillsaveus.org? No, try neowilldefeatthemachine.net......LMAO!!! tell the truth....you are sitting in a bomb shelter 25 feet underground surrounded by bottled water and canned beans, right?? LOL!!!

"Speak of the devil" ... Media frustration spills into briefing - "A growing media frustration with Barack Obama’s team spilled into the open at Thursday’s briefing, with reporters accusing the White House of stifling access to his oath re-do and giving Obama’s first interview as president to a multi-million dollar inauguration sponsor."

Speak of the devil"

Yeah. Like everytime you show up!

Ed Henry can kick rocks!

Karmi,

You take your time putting up link after link. You don't matter anymore.

After President Obama....The GOP may never be in power again!

LOL!

The Meaning of the Moment
For countless black men and women, Barack Obama's inauguration ushers in a new administration and a renewed American spirit.

You cannot have that much faith in someone unless you love him. In our case, that love has been earned. All of our previous battles were, in a sense, tuneups for Barack Obama's presidency. It has been the historical burden of black people to close the gap between what America promised and what it delivered, to be a sort of national Jiminy Cricket pricking America's conscience, to compel the nation to live up to the bold words enshrined in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.


That was leadership from the outside—by protest and agitation—and it worked magnificently. Ours is a better nation, an almost unrecognizably better nation, because of the black struggle for democratic freedom.

Other Americans know, even if they don't want to acknowledge it, that the America they love so much today would not exist in its present form if we hadn't been here raising hell. Without us, America would have remained, in the words of Thurgood Marshall, fatally "defective from the start." Universal suffrage, women's rights, all of the stuff that makes a democracy would be unthinkable if we hadn't been here.

And, having brought the nation, kicking and screaming, to this point, it's finally time for one of us to lead.

AMEN to this!

rikyrah: This is soooo INSPIRATIONAL!! :>) THANK YOU!! :>)

***whispering*** LOOK UP!! He/she's BACK! :>)

Thank You, Lord!

rikyrah: _Er, -ummm Where's the __________ room?:

'It's a pretty big house' (Obama needs direction in WH)

The first family is settling in to their new digs, but President Barack Obama still needed a little direction at the end of his second day . . .

. . . on the job last night.

He wanted to know where to go at the end of the night, according to his press secretary, Robert Gibbs.

"It's a pretty big house," Gibbs said, adding that Obama looked comfortable in the family's new digs and enjoyed living "above the company store."

The new spotlight and responsibility has not changed the family, Gibbs said, adding that "they are very much the same people I met five years ago."

Gibbs said that despite 2-year campaign and the transition--the family has moved three times in a little less than a month--their routine remains because of the first lady.

Obama took a break from work yesterday between meetings to have dinner with his family.

Isn't this JUST 2 ADORABLE!!? :>) :>)

Our House in the Middle of our Street

Ona the days, I'll learn how to "couple the "WHITE HOUSE" with this vid. Until then. . . .


ENJOY!!! :>) :>)

Above the company store is funny, so is him getting lost. Major props to The First Lady for keeping that family on track through all these changes.

sdg1844: Cute - - huh? :>) :>)

Yaaaaa, First Lady Michelle! :>) :>)

"Now, Honey, YOU just go 5 miles and make a left turn; then you go another 3 miles annnnd. . . . . . . " :>) :>)

Obama Impresses State Dept. Staff With His Indonesian (VIDEO)

Barack Obama put on a bilingual display today while visiting the State Department. Obama, who lived in Indonesia from 1967 to 1971, until the age of ten, broke into Indonesian after being greeted by a State Dept. staffer in the language.

ABC News has more details:

As President Obama worked the rope-line at the State Department Thursday, a State Department staffer named Charles Silver, knowing the President once lived in Indonesia, shouted out, "good afternoon" in the local language.


Obama responded back in what Silver later told ABC News was "very good" Bahasa Indonesian. The two then chatted briefly about the neighborhood Obama once lived in.

Video via MSNBC:

OUR PRESIDENT is a "MAN OF THE WORLD!" :>) :>) YES HE IS!!! :>) :>)

What d'i say by Ray Charles

ENJOY!! :>) :>)

GreenLady,

lol

No harm at all. No need to go to the "bad chair". It's cool.

I enjoy listening to Ray anytime!. Thanks!

Justice58: WHEW!!! :>) THANK YOU!! :>) :>)

This is so much fun! He is too cool!

How many languages does out President speak?

more languages than Bush did :)

Starting w/ English

****crawling into the room on my hands and knees toward the "BAD CHAIR" ****

Justice58: I'm sorry! How did I miss YOUR post?? I 'on't know! :>) :>)

Well, ENJOY Brother RAY! :>)

Dang,

The President is one fine man!

they're making money off the whole family.

"Marvelous Malia" and "Sweet Sasha"
On the other hand, I have to say, I love the names.

Just think about little kids having these dolls, whose TRUE offense is..

THEY LOOK NOTHING LIKE MALIA AND SASHA.

THAT is what's wrong with them.

But, let's get back to the kids playing ' White House' with Malia and Sasha. On a level, you gotta admit that's cool.

The dolls don't even come close to resembling Malia and Sasha.

They're cute, though.

Obama's a man-hugger and I love it.
Real men hug men and dont feel gay for doing so.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/01/22/the-ea...

I could do without the label of "man-hugger", but Obama's affection for people is contagious.

Notice one of the commenter's got salty because a brotha pointed out it's something lots of Black Men do. To parapharase "Please stop with the it's a Black thing attitude." I say get the hell over it because no you can't understand. lol

As Benjamin Button’s big-hearted mother, Taraji P. Henson stole scenes from Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. Now a decade into her career, she’s finally an overnight success.

Anyone who saw 2005’s Hustle & Flow is already familiar with Taraji P. Henson’s scene-stealing—she played Shug, the affable prostitute, and even sang vocals on Three Six Mafia’s Oscar-winning, “It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp.” But this year Henson is making a gold run of her own—at 38, she has crossed over into blockbuster territory with her turn as Queenie, the nursing-home owner who raises a reverse-aging Brad Pitt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Henson has already received nominations for a Golden Globe and a Critic’s Choice award, and on Thursday, could easily find herself in the Oscar race.

The D.C.-born actress may have taken a circuitous path—she started college as an electrical engineering major, but flunked calculus and decided she “was an artist”—but she is now poised to be one of Hollywood’s new dramatic queens. She talked to The Daily Beast about her curious new life.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/...

Viola's a better actress, better role. Plus Taraji's been in too much bamma stuff as well.

Thanks for sharing. And yes, Viola's a great actress.

I like Taraji, good for her...and congrats to Viola Davis too!!

Sista is trying to bring it. I do community theater. I love it. Great way to create and very healing to play a multitude of characters. It's socially acceptable to do and voice things one couldn't do otherwise!

Taraji did an amazing job in the movie too.

I just cant seem to muster up any excitement for the Oscars. they just dont do anything for me. Its one of those things that they (you know who THEY are) try to make seem cool....but its really not. They throw outsiders a bone here and there, they give it all of that publicity, hype it up, talk about it forever, and its never as good as they pretend it is.
Its like sushi
cold, white, raw, fishy, and overrated. but good luck to the ethnic people anyway.

Love the sushi metaphor.

It's not only the wingnuts that is going nuts over the oath debacle check this thread out
What does the "law" actually says about "oath"

Alexi Giannoulias (Gin-new-lee-us for JJPers outside of Illinois) is the Illinois State Treasurer. He's also a good friend of P-BO. Alexi is considering running againt Burris at the end of his term. I kinda doubt that Burris will run but if he does and Alexi runs against him it will put P-BO in a pretty awkward position.

Just putting that name out there because you're bound to hear it sooner or later, and you'll have one up on all your friends, and the tv people that butcher ethnic names.

Not sure if you guys talked about this but would like to hear your thoughts about the "My President is Black" movement. This is a video of the FoxNews report with Michelle Malkin speaking to Obama's lack of rejection of the movement.

http://www.worldstarhiphop.com/videos/video.php...

LOL....so what exactly is this "movement"?? What does that even mean? Jeezy and Jigga's languange notwithstanding...the president IS actually black....so what is the problem? This has the feel of the "X" trend...when back in the late 80s and early 90s, we wore an "X" (Malcolm) on tees, caps, whatever...and all of a sudden that was a sign of racial hostility towards white people. So what if teens and college students are sporting a "My President is Black" tee, Michelle Malkin's self-hating azz can catch fire.

I agree with you. Prez Obama IS black and they failed to let us know that up until he won the election. Not only is it ridiculous that they're trying to link him to the rappers use of profanity and the N word but they're outraged almost that he isn't speaking out against it. I think its a crock of shit.

It's like we are supposed to silently be proud. I honestly can't stand the song but I know a enough people who identify with it and is damn proud their president is black.

Here's my problem with the song (when did it become a movement?)

If you're going to do a song like that, you could at least speak to the history of it. That's not Jeezy's thing, but Nas could've done much better on his verse than he did; I've heard him do "positive" stuff before and do it well.

Talking about Obama, your rims, and how they're going to put his face on the "five-thousand dollar bill" just didn't do it for me.

I'm still sick of those damn shirts, but a warning: if Obama loses in 4-8 years, no one can complain if/when the "My President is White" shirts come out.....

Slogan/mantra/movement - potatoe potato :)

My president has been white my whole life, yours too; I can't be mad at the creative types for expressing their acceptance of this monumental change even if I think it's ridiculous. Question is, if "my president is white" was the song of choice would it be a topic of discussion as is "my president is black?"

I won't whine about little things, the video clip was a little food for thought

She needs to get the hell over it. That's like being pissed at someone calling water "wet." If it's a fact, why the hell are you so damn angry? Nothing worse than a self-hating individual.

Michelle Malkin....

A Triple Axel spin

SAAAAAAAAA>>>>>>>LAP

LOL!!!

LOL. Skate on over there and do it.


Yeah, Yeah!! JUSTICE SCORES A 10!!!!!!!!!

ROTFLMBAO!!!

"Michelle Malkin's self-hating azz can catch fire."

And f I were a cloud full of rain, I'd move off in the opposite direction if I saw her burning!

Michelle Malkin wishes she had blue eyes so bad....i know she cries herself to sleep every night. She wants blonde hair and blue eyes and would carry Satan's babies if there was a promise that she could finally rid herself of her tainted skin (because she thinks its tainted) and finally be more like Barbie instead of like her stubby cousin Midge.

She SO hates herself it's not even funny. WE can see it a mile away.

Miranda,

You CAN'T come back to the Oval Office...well, if Bush didn't find it, then it's probably not here...look, the only person who's sitting behind this desk is me...well if you need to hide from Hillary, Blair House is always available...uh huh...well her next trip is coming up soon, so you don't have to worry.

They are supposedly the "model minority" but there's a crazy underbelly. Asian males who loose their minds and spill blood. Perhaps the admissions office at VT should let in more black folks? It'd be a safer campus...

I was afraid of Asians being stereotyped. It's my understanding that this guy came all the way from China to get at her, and he decapitated her. I don't think he was a student, and he was only in the US for the past 2 weeks.

I love the photo of President Obama sitting behind the desk in the Oval Office of the White House.

When I woke up this morning and saw this very picture on the front page of USA Today, I .........have no words.

icebergslim: Here's a WORD from Mr. Roland:

Limbaugh wants Obama to fail. Aren't you shocked?

America is quickly seeing its financial standing go down the drain, we are spending billions fighting a senseless war, and Americans have just voted for change, and Rush Limbaugh wants to see the president fail.

No one should be shocked. This is a guy who thinks he is the smartest person in the room, no matter how many are there. He's still seething that his little game of having conservatives vote for Sen. Hillary Clinton in various primaries did nothing to derail President Barack Obama to the White House.

Now he is basking in the media glow of pronouncing that he wants to see the president fail, and he tries to justfiy it by saying liberals didn't want to see President George W. Bush succeed, so why should he feel differently?

This is a prime example who the folks that listen to him are nuts, especially those blue collar workers with high school degrees. He wants to see you stay broke as hell while he sucks down $100 million a year. TA -RUTH!!

For me, I never want to see any president fail. If America's president fails, we fail, and no one should want that.

Well, now Rush has to sit back and look at Obama and call him Mr. President when speaking of him for the next four years. That's probably what really pains him. But he'll just have to deal with it!

Betcha he will NEED his OXYCOTIN in the worst way for the NEXT 4 - 8 years!! :>) :>) Then he'll REALLY B ADDICTED!! :>) :>) :>)

he is so ignorant that it irritates me to listen to him. how can someone be filled with so much hate that they'd rather see the whole country suffer for another presidential term than have the new democratic president do well? that is so ignorant!

Rush is an idiot.

Nooooo...he's a BIG FAT idiot.

Nooooo.... he's a BIG, FAT, FUCKING idiot.

Y'all forgot JUNKIE!

Nooooo...he's big fat, fucking, racist, idiot, junkie!

Ok, since you reminded us....

Rush admits he's addicted to painkillers

CNN) -- Rush Limbaugh announced on his radio program Friday that he is addicted to pain medication and that he is checking himself into a treatment center immediately.

"You know I have always tried to be honest with you and open about my life," the conservative commentator said in a statement on his nationally syndicated radio show.

"I need to tell you today that part of what you have heard and read is correct. I am addicted to prescription pain medication."

Law enforcement sources said last week that Limbaugh's name had come up during an investigation into a black market drug ring in Palm Beach County, Florida. The sources said that authorities were looking into the illegal sale of the prescription drugs OxyContin and hydrocodone.

(Have you been clean or have you been twisting the caps on those oxycontin bottles?)

Obama Dancing To Snoop Dogg (Pre- presidency 8/08)

Well it looks like Kristen Gillibrand will be replacing HRC. One good thing is that she's from upstate NY; the bad thing is that she's a DINO. So she probably won't be a reliable vote for Obama or the Democrats.

icebergslim: When the 3 former presidents met with PRESIDENT OBAMA, Prez. clinton remarked on the NEW RUG!!

He'd probably have a "heart attack" IFFF/when he sees the NEW COMPUTER EQUIPMENT [that is yet to come!] :>) :>)

Paterson chooses Blue Dog Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand for Hillary's seat. Apparently, the governor thought Caroline Kennedy was unfit, according to the NYT.

That's all Obama needs is another Democrat who acts like a Repub.

I cannot get through to WPIX, which is confirming this little squiblet the night before the announcement.

There was a reporter from NY on Tweety's show and he said for a fact that Paterson was going to name Caroline to the seat. It was a done deal.

Something stinks.

I never thought he was gonna give them pardons. Bush doesnt do anything for anybody that isnt doing something for him. He doesnt need them, so what would be the point of doing anything for them?

I admit that I am eating crow over this...I thought, for sure, that all them mofos were getting pardons.

Me too.

I think, though, that this large omission is a signal that Bush is in effect hanging everybody out to dry, Cheney included.

I'm sure he's not getting any sleep lately, on top of seeing Obama inaugurated.

A pardon would signal that he thinks that they did something wrong, meaning that he was wrong, and Bush will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, never, ever admit that.

100% co-sign.

Actually, rikyrah, I was not sure about Bush. If you look at his pattern he has not been gun-ho on pardons and alot of those mo-fo's need one. Cheney, Scooter, all those mo-fo's from CIA for illegal torture, sorry ass Al Gonzales, oh alot of them needed a pardon and did not get it.

Agree.

Repeat:

I've just arrived home from DC. My road trip friend and I both had food poisoning so we had to spend a night at a hotel in Massachusetts.

The Australian Open (tennis) is happening right now, so it's going to be a minute before I can upload all my photos and write my reflections.

I hope you feel better.

Oh, Craig, I feel for you.

One year in Minneapolis, we had a family reunion and stayed at the Radisson. Whatever we ate at the picnic, everyone was sick by the next day. A doctor had to be sent up to our floor, we all were sick. And I had cousins who HAD to take their kids out the next day to the Mall of America. My cousin told me, the first thing he did was know EXACTLY where the rest rooms were. This is a real story. We all were sick as hell.

having had food poisoning, I feel for you, Craig.

When you get back full strength, tell us all about your trip.

Get well. :)
