Obama’s Week: This is a Laser-like Focus?

I make no attempt to hide it. I am a Christian American Conservative, a Reagan Conservative, or what the cool people up in the Northeast Corridor call a SoCon, or Social Conservative. That means that I actually believe in God, and, such irrelevant, according to our president, concepts of right and wrong.

In what he thought was a private chat with campaign donors Thursday evening, President Barack Hussein Obama offered the most revealing behind-the-scenes account to date of his budget negotiations with GOP leaders last week.

In the video, you’ll note that Obama speaks about last week’s Budget negotiations with House Speaker Boehner:

I said, ‘You want to repeal health care? Go at it. We’ll have that debate. You’re not going to be able to do that by nickel-and-diming me in the budget. You think we’re stupid?’

Mr. President, may I answer that?

In your little speech to donors on Thursday, when you thought the microphones were off, you showed your true character, or actually, the lack thereof.

Scooter, you’ve been counting all along, in your presidency, that the majority of Americans are just like you.  That they could care less about the innocent lives, abruptly ended in the womb, during a procedure performed by a private company, paid for by our tax dollars.

And, for some reason or another, even though the poll numbers are proving you false, you seem to think that we unwashed masses, in awe of your benevolent leadership, are ecstatically embracing the coming of the nightmarish bureaucratic monster you invented, known as Obamacare.

Mr. President, were you asleep on the night of November 2nd, 2010, or has the medication kicked in?

I think it’s the medication.

This week, in the middle of the Budget Battle, you filed for re-election.  Then, you told a sycophantic interviewer with the Associated Press that:

I think I can make that case, and I think that, in the debates that take place over the next 18 months, the American people will feel that I deserve a second term.

You also went on television, on Wednesday afternoon, after the vote on last year’s budget, turning what was supposed to be a speech about the passing of those measures that will keep the government running into a campaign speech, pontificating about medicare, medicaid, ending the evil Booosh tax cuts, and taxing any capitalists, err…I mean American families making over 200,000 a year.

And ,also, during the week,  you whined about not having a cool phone in the Oval Office, and also about Donald Trump daring to bring up the subject of your super-secret long-form birth certificate that you have paid a bunch of money to keep hidden, along with your college transcripts.

The laser-like focus which you demonstrated this week has been bragged upon by your people during your term, as your management style, along with an unprecedented transparency, seemingly belied by the video seen earlier in this post.

Speaking of transparency, there seems to be a little problem with the White House Visitor Logs, per politico.com:

[T]he logs are missing the names of thousands of other visitors to the White House, including lobbyists, government employees, campaign donors, policy experts and friends of the first family, according to an investigation by the Center for Public Integrity.

The White House website proudly boasts of making available “over 1,000,000 records of everyone who’s come through the doors of the White House” via a searchable database.

Yet the Center’s analysis shows that the logs routinely omit or cloud key details about the identity of visitors, whom they met with and the nature of their visits. The logs even include the names of people who never showed up. These are critical gaps that raise doubts about the records’ historical accuracy and utility in helping the public understand White House operations, from social events to meetings on key policy debates.

Additionally:

Another practice calling into question the veracity of the logs: Junior White House staff members routinely list themselves as the “visitee,” or person being visited, when in fact the visitor has arrived to see someone higher up the chain of command.

The practice appears to apply to the commander in chief in some instances.

Reggie Love is recorded as receiving nearly 300 visits in the West Wing of the White House. Love is Obama’s personal assistant, the young aide who is constantly at the president’s side. Celebrities like NBA star Kobe Bryant and some Obama friends are listed as visitors to Love.

In addition, nearly two dozen campaign fundraisers and their family members are listed as visiting Love. The records give no hint as to who else they saw once they entered the White House or the purpose of their meetings. Among them was Hildy Kuryk, a New York fundraiser for Obama who now is deputy national finance director of the Democratic National Committee.

While Emanuel is listed as having fewer than 500 visitors, the logs show health care czar Nancy Ann DeParle had three times as many visitors. But three young aides who scheduled meetings for Emanuel — Katherine Kochman, Amanda Anderson and Benjamin Milakofsky — collectively had more than 2,600 visits in their names.

And yet, despite your two-faced nature, your behind-the-scenes machinations and all the Elitist, immature, condescending garbage that you’ve pulled on the American people during your time as president, you expect to be re-elected?

Do you think we’re stupid?  Evidently.
