Obama to the Rescue?
NBC Chicago ^ | 1/25/2011 | Andrew Greiner

President Barack Obama top political adviser Valerie Jarrett said Tuesday that the president thinks Rahm Emanuel belongs back on the ballot. “I think that [Obama] believes that [Emanuel] is eligible, and that he believes that Rahm will pursue his appeal in the courts,” Jarrett, a senior adviser to Obama and fellow Chicagoan said on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

I’ve come to the conclusion that this is just the Chicago machines way of negotioting the price. Otherwise Rahm had this thing on lock so why even bother with the usual payoffs.

The rules are different — and elastic — for our Overlords.

Love that, “Eligibility being a recurring theme with Obama.”

Personally, I think Mayor Daley doesn’t want Emmanuel in the job, and probably thus his brother, Obummer’s new chief of staff doesn’t either, and probably Obummer, too. So no matter what placating words comes from Obummer, Emmanuel is under the bus, and he’ll find a lot of his cronies he helped put there under the bus with him, who won’t be sympathetic.

Along with breaking the rules. Rahm doesn’t qualify. But neither, in all likelihood, did Obama, and look where that got him.

There is no one more qualified to tell Rahm how to run for an office he is ineligible for than Obama. He is the pro, the top of the heap, the all-spark.... Da man.

Obama knows fraud and how to get away with it.

For now anyway, the momentum has shifted. Obama is NOT qualified to be POTUS, and Americans are finally en-mass asking WHY the government hasn’t addressed it as opposed to sweeping it under the rug.

The clock is ticking now.

None of these psychopaths, whether in the regime or the whorehouse media, seem to realize even in passing how unethical and possibly illegal it is for the President of the US to weigh in on a case under adjudication. Despicable behavior and no one even blinks.

Think about this littel gem, Obama defrauded a LOT of people to the record breaking tune of 700 MILLION+ dollars. What’s gonna happen when donors start asking for an accounting?

Um hum. Popcorn?

Obama’s day of reckoning is coming. What goes around comes around. Nobody lies as much as he does without it catching up to him. Does anybody remember how frustrated we were with Clinton prior to the blue dress?

I do. I attended, at the time, the church pastored by one of Clinton’s three ‘spiritual advisors’. When the Lewinsky story first broke, this pastor actually invited the press in to a service, to hear him castigate the rumor mongers. I’d have walked out, but I was in too much shock to move.

Fortunately the elders, who had been blindsided, hauled the man on the carpet and read him the riot act. Then the blue dress surfaced, and shortly afterward the pastor retired to write books.

Anyway, the point is, it’s most frustrating right before the dam breaks. Barry’s blue dress appears to be more of a slow-motion drip-drip-drip than a single defining moment. It will be no less devastating for that. His downfall is happening before our eyes. By 2012, it will be obvious to all.

Keep the polite calls and emails going to Boehner and Cantor. They need to hear from us on the urgency and seriousness of this issue.

Lawless Democrat/Progressively Communists don't care about the rules. They make them up as they go along. King Julian/Obama declares that Rahm was born... i mean eligible. Make it so!

“I think that [Obama] believes that [Emanuel] is eligible..."

Obie believes whatever Valerie tells him to believe.
