Clinton triangulated against Congress and it was politics.

Obama triangulates against Congress and I feel like he is getting ready to disband them.

I’ve said and will continue to say the media has played a major part in the destruction of this country. It is an ardent activist and liar for the Demonrat party. For any challenger to 0bama it is going to take the acknowledgment that the media needs to be questioned and taken on just as much. That’s why I wanted Palin so much because she understood it, but what are we going to get with any of them? Good luck as this country is on the fast track downward. 0bama is just an ugly thing. The rhetoric he spews on a daily basis is just a mockery of the truth and knowing he has the media to insulate him and push his agenda and anything and everything that needs to be done to protect and bolster. The enemy within.

Soft Economy Lingers in Obama Vacation Spot
BYJENNIFER LEVITZ

EDGARTOWN, Mass.—The ferries to Martha’s Vineyard are packed, and the luxury vacation rentals at this affluent summer colony are filling up faster than last year.

But during his nine-day visit here, President Barack Obama will find a local economy still trying to find its footing. While there are signs of improvement, business owners remain cautious and slow to hire. That has kept the unemployment rate up and the locals on edge.

The one thing that is so bitterly ironic, is that Obama and the media (and their Hollywood allies) are going ot be the first ones to suffer the most if Russia or China becomes the new world superpower. Then, once Americans are faced with that, they will realize just how much work has to be put into rebuilding America’s status, which will end up with the media, entertainers, and other politically correct groups getting scapegoated since no one will be in an indulgent mood.

Wait a minute. I thought Urkel's Press Secretary, Che Carney, said The White House can't create jobs.

Oh. Wait. That was last week.

Fox News showed a clip of his speech today. He looked awful! I suppose destroying the country is stressful.

President Obama appealed to the patriotism of Congress as he urged members to act together to put people back to work.

Starting with waiters, apparently.
