Obama agenda: Miami Obama

“President Obama hit the Miami fundraising circuit on Monday, picking up big campaign bucks and boasting of his record in running the country,” The Miami Herald writes. The president’s touting of his accomplishments – a healthcare overhaul, financial regulatory reform, ending a ban on gays serving in the military – stood in stark contrast to the comments made about him by Republican presidential hopefuls who debated Monday night on CNN and described his term as a failure.” More: Miami Obama portrayed himself as someone who inherited his troubles, not one who caused them. ‘There’s no doubt that the country has gone through an extraordinary trauma,’ Obama said. ‘My job has frankly been to clean up a big mess … We yanked the economy out of what could have been a second Great Depression. We stabilized the financial system.’”

From Chicago, The Hill’s Youngman writes, “Only three Republican candidates for president are listed on the wall of President Obama’s new campaign headquarters — Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty and Jon Huntsman.”

So, obama wants to campaign for bucks while the middle class, elderly and poor are being screwed by his agenda.

I guess the best analogy here would harkin back to the days of ancient rome where nero fiddled as rome burned.

    Another example of the "unbiased" reporting on this site.

    http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2011/06/obama-effort-to-court-florida-voters-underwhelms.html

    $44 tickets, at a venue that holds 2200- and 900 people show up to see a sitting president?

    Kind of reminds me of last fall. At this rate, the mother in law will vote republican next year.

    Republicans governors are cutting the wages and benefits of regular working middle class families not Obama. The money is not even being put back into state budgets it is being used to provide tax breaks for people who already pay less in taxes than you do. The republican controlled house has not done anything to help the middle class, elderly and poor, there is your fiddle section. How about that Gov Christy, takes a limo from the infield to the hot-dog stand and back, just inspires you doesn't it, I'll bet he plays a bass fiddle.

    We need to print out Forrest's note above and put it on the fridge. Read it every day and twice on election day!! We can get smart--we can learn how to vote for our interests and not Citibank's and Wall Street and the Koch brothers!

      What achievements? What's is he going to run on? Bush was worse. No one wants to hear that, we want answers, we want to know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. This president is immature, and inexperienced, and the country is suffering because of this.

      Say what you want you political junkies, but you are just a speck, and hardly noticed by the general population.

      As America clearly remembers…..Today marks the unforgettable 1-year anniversary of MSNBC’s continually mindless PSYCHO-TALKING comments.

      Yes, it was exactly one year ago today on the Ed Shutlz show when Shultz emphatically demanded that Barack Obama should “RULE THE COUNTRY AS A DICTATOR !”

      In Shultz’s attempt to continue the never-ending bias, distortions, and vicious hatred for which MSNBC is quite renowned, Shultz has repeatedly been disciplined for his idiotic, hate-filled rhetoric.

      This is not the first time Shultz’s mouth has gotten him in trouble, including being demoted and suspended…… And, America knows…. It won’t be the last, either.

      America also realizes that MSNBC has proven to have absolutely no credibility,…..its only purpose is to try to constantly create division and endless hatred…

      So, Happy Anniversary to MSNBC and “psycho-talking” Ed Shultz….. America remembers this date….

      And, Barack Obama has proven to be well on his way to “RULING AS A DICTATOR”, just as you demanded !
