President Obama wants to meet me
Happy Birthday Kaz, BHO
I know it’s my birthday week but… BHO wants to “meet me.”

I want to meet Karyn
From Barack Obama
To: Karyn McDermott
Karyn –
Two years ago, I met 10 of you.
Just before I accepted our party’s nomination in front of 80,000 people in Denver, I spoke with 10 grassroots supporters who had won a trip to meet me backstage.
I still remember the time we spent together — because these are the people, like you, who stood with me in 2008, and got me through the tough fights since.
But we face another test on November 2nd that will say a lot about our future — and I need you by my side again.
A Supreme Court decision I strongly disagree with has shifted the balance of power in our elections from folks like you to giant corporations. Their massive spending on attack ads could have a real impact on who represents you at all levels of government. Only supporters like you — and all the work you are doing — are standing in their way..This is the latest in numerous emails I have received from Plouffe, Axlerod, Michelle et al these past couple of days.
I received an email from a kind soul named Marian from MoveOn.org inviting me to a party Saturday to “Help Save Our Progressive Heroes.” At first I thought it was one of those pesky Young Republicans having a laugh, but no, it’s legit. Checked my schedule and it turns out I’m available so Marian and MoveOn get ready – only thing is what to wear, a Tea Party t-shirt?. I went to a presidential debate party hosted by another local Leftie but had to park my car a block or four away because of those bumper stickers like Raise My Taxes, Lose My Vote. The pungent incense and cheap red wine led to me trying to support Senator McCain over the Democratic nominee though I sincerely professed I was for the Ron Paul ‘Revolution’ which bought me some more time before the lynching began. For all of the Left’s ‘inclusion’ and ‘diversity’ arguments, it would seem ideas are welcome from a certain perspective.
Marian of MoveOn wants to save “progressive heroes’ like Russ Feingold who is in real danger of losing his seat which is shocking to even seasoned political observers. This “Yes We Can” ‘party’ reflects the desperation of President Obama who is criss-crossing the nation between golf games stumping for candidates he really should have to in so-called ‘blue states’ including his own. Alexi Giannoulis is running for Obama’s old senate seat and seems to need all the help he can get from the top whilst saying there is no electoral corruption in Chicago with a straight face. You can’t make this up…
Joe Biden just sent me an email:
Wed, October 20, 2010 12:06:20 PM
Karyn, I’ve had it up to here
From: Joe Biden
Karyn –
Remember when the GOP was in control?
They drove up record deficits to pass tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of the middle class.
And now they want to do it again. If they take over Congress, Republicans have promised to go back to the “exact same agenda” that drove our economy into a ditch.
You can’t make this stuff up. The exact same agenda.
Well, Joe, America has had it ‘up to here’ too. And, yes, you can’t make this stuff up.
The First Lady along with the 42nd President are also out demonizing the Republicans and the Chamber of Commerce. Even Barney Frank needs some help in his Massachusetts district but given his role in Fannie and Freddie this is hardly a surprise. His Republican opponent, Sean Beilat, was heckled this week by Frank’s boyfriend after a televised debate. Very touchy indeed. There is, indeed, trouble in Democratic paradise. After Scott Brown’s election to Ted Kennedy’s seat the Democrats should not be surprised that even Massachusetts might swing to the Right.
The past week has been brutal to the ruling elite with Patty Murray in Washington State engaging the Comeback Kid, and Barbara Boxer not where you would expect her to be in the polls. California should have been a state not to be concerned about yet it is on the toss-up list. Non- partisan analyst Stu Rothenberg puts the number of competitive seats at 100 while Charlie Cook and the Cook Report put it just under that at 97.
Back to President Obama and his kind email wanting to meet me. Mr. President, it was easy, you were supposed to drive right past my front door on your way to a closed, hand-picked audience at the local recreation center in Southside, Richmond. The secret service had confirmed the route as late as 11pm the previous evening but one has to ask whether all the signs placed all the way down Cherokee Road demanding lower taxes and less spending have anything to do with the re-route?
‘Change’ and ‘Hope’ and ‘Yes We Can’ are lovely, inspiring slogans that say, mean and do nothing, Rassmussen reports today that no less than 64% of Americans think the country is on the wrong track. Politics is the art of the possible but numbers do not lie.

How do you feel about the Republican huge win in the election yesterday? It just seems clear that when states like Iowa go almost 100% GOP, people in the US are pretty unhappy with his policies so far.

How do you feel about the Red huge win in the election yesterday? To me it seems that when places like Michigan go nearly totally GOP, people in the US are pretty dissatisfied with his leadership so far.

Прошу прощения, что вмешался… Я разбираюсь в этом вопросе. Приглашаю к обсуждению.

Republicans or democrats… I’m not seeing a policy to fix the economy.

Fascinating piece. I came across your site a while back when searching for articles dealing with American Politics and Obama. I’ve becomea returning visitor to your blog. I know I’m a little late in posting my comments but the blog made a lot of sense and I enjoyed it. I can’t say that I agree with all the points you made but it was definitely enlightening! I run a small US company that manufactures a line of collectible political gifts that commemorate the great leaders, speeches and events of American politics. I’m trying to create American jobs so I hope you don’t mind me including my link in this post. I’m always looking to promote our American made products and I still believe America just keeps getting better and better in spite of our current difficulties. I’m not sure if my earlier post was received so I’m trying again. Thanks again for an intriguing blog post and your thoughts about our current political climate. I will return again soon.

What is wrong with some of you people? I don’t get it! Why would you want to extend the Bush tax cuts to the highest earning (2-3%) to the wealthy? It’s been proven that these individuals do not re-invest in this Country. If anything they take their dollars and invest in other countries and with goes millions of jobs with it! Haven’t they stuffed their pockets enough and why do you support this, unless you people make more than $250,000/yr. You fools remind me when Hitler was in power and the have not’s followed him as well.

Hah – Obama in India. This is one of the biggest signs of American demise: The president of the worlds ”superpower” selling goods like a door salesman, knocking on India´s door begging for some sales. India has increased in over 450% military trade with Russia while decreasing in over 100% with US. Obama is doing nothing but begging India to buy from US again in hopes of containing CHINA´S growth. Oh and PUH LEASE, offering a permanent seat at UN´s Security Council is the same as: ‘’BUT WAIT that´s not ALL, call now and we will include a key chain, a flash light, and a customized bumper sticker’’ .

November 10th, 2010 at 10:35 pm
The fact is we have somewhere between 15 and 20 million unemployed right now and the dopes in DC from both parties have done their share to make it so. Getting tired of the Obamarama apoligists who don’t want him to be held accountable for what he has wrought. Throw the bum out in 2012. We need to keep up the good start made this past week and get new blood in our government.
