Obama a ‘cash calf’?

leave a comment »

Apparently his inability to hand out ambassadorships and other plum assignments makes His Oneness  only a fraction  of the cash cow he once was.

How much I wish he had been an architect as Our Lady of Perpetual Dissatisfaction  claimed he  wanted to be,  even though he lacked the skills for it.   He would have done a lot less damage if he had chosen that career,  since he also lacks the skills for the job he now holds.

Fundraising on death…

leave a comment »

If you were as impressed with Obama’s Sandy Hook  memorial speech  as the  WaPo’s David  Maraniss,  you will ignore the fact that His Oneness  is fundraising  off the performance.  Oh yes,  it was a performance,  written by speechwriters, displayed on teleprompters,  and read skillfully by a man who sees nothing wrong in raising money from a tragedy,  which funds will benefit only himself,  not the victims.

His Oneness is also using the massacre to push  for raising taxes  in a perverse moralistic display which I find repulsive.  Do you really still think Mr. Obama is a nice guy?

Do it yourself…

That’s what His Oneness  is telling  the other Democrats.   I think it would be fair to say that donors aren’t opening their wallets  these days,  because despite having held twice as many fundraisers as George W. Bush,  Obama hasn’t raised as much money as W had by this stage.

Donkey vs elephant…

The Republican National Committee  has out-raised  the Democratic National Committee for the fourth time in the last five quarters.  I find it interesting that the  big money donors   apparently don’t think the re-election of His Oneness is inevitable,  despite media’s desperate drive to convince us all that it is.

Even more fascinating is that the media isn’t revealing the bottom line,  which is that the evil Bush-Cheney team,  which was continually lambasted by the media,  had raised more money  by the same time than His Oneness and His Clueless have,  but held only HALF as many fundraising events.

Gary McCoy  shows us the  one thing we can depend on His Oneness to do,  no matter what.

What corruption?

leave a comment »

The Washington Post  suddenly notices that Congress critters hold  fundraisers and take big checks while formulating legislation which may affect the donors.  Gee,  can you imagine that such donations would have any effect on said legislation?
