Obama was asked how he coped with frustrating moments as president, and responded: 'By not having a Twitter account.'

Really Obama ? Then who was it sending tweets from this account ?

“- as if to confirm the fact that architects don’t listen well, are out of touch”

My husband is a contractor (spec homes) and complains about blue prints/their design. I’m speaking in laymen’s terms because I don’t know how to explain well, but he says NO ONE should be allowed to be an architect until they’ve been a framer for at LEAST 5 years under someone who has a clue. I think he’s right.

So many of these designers have their heads in the clouds. They want big, open spaces...yet forget about this thing called SUPPORT within the structure. Or he has to “tweek” the way he builds because the numbers don’t add up, or the length or width of this or that means much wasted lumber cutting to size, etc.

Again, I’m trying to explain something I “get it” about, but am unable to explain properly other than to say yeah, architects aren’t always real bright.

More like Jay Z.

It is crazy about these speaking fees. Before the witch ran, she was getting 200K speaking fees. However, at her campaign events, it was mostly empty, they could have heard her crap for free.

Obama is a fly-infested Sunni Marxist Muslim reprobate homosexual, given over to every unclean spirit Babylon has for his use,

This demonic creatures sole role was to surrender and diminish Americas sovereignty and power to the NWO Globalists.

It could get even worse.

<><> Obama donating A&E Networks and Wall Street’s $800,000 speaking fees to one of his foundations.....so he wouldn’t have to pay taxes on it.

<><> Obama doing the Clinton Crime Family Hustle.....shaking down A&E Networks and Cantor-Fitzgerald for even more money......for donations to his foundation.

Maybe it's more accurately phrased....... what DID C/F get from Obama.......could be "kickback" is part of the crime spree.

ITEM--- Lots of wall Street firms got zillions of untraceable bailout money few years back.

=======================================

EXCERPT---FOURTEEN TRILLION DOLLARS Behind The Real Size of the Obama Bailout; A guide to the abbreviations, acronyms, and obscure programs that make up Obama's $14 trillion federal bailout of Wall Street
SOURCE motherjones.com --- Mon Dec. 21, 2009 12:23 PM PST

The price tag for the Wall Street bailout is popularly put at $787 billion—---the actual size of TARP--the Troubled Assets Relief Program. But TARP is just the best known program in an array of more than 30 overseen by Treasury Department and Federal Reserve that have paid out or put aside untraceable money to bail out financial firms and inject money into the markets.

To get a sense of the size of the real $14 trillion bailout, see MJ chart at web site. A guide to the pieces of the puzzle includes massive untraceable Treasury Department bailout programs.

Money Market Mutual Fund: In September 2008, the Treasury controlled by Obama/Emanuel announced that it would insure the holdings of publicly offered money market mutual funds. According to the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP), these guarantees could have potentially cost the federal government more than $3 trillion [PDF].

Public-Private Investment Fund: This joint Treasury-Federal Reserve program bought toxic assets from banks and brokerages—as much as $5 billion of assets per firm. According to SIGTARP, the government's potential exposure from the PPIF is between $500 million and $1 trillion [PDF].

TARP: As part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the Treasury controlled by Obama/Emanuel made loans to or investments more than 750 banks and financial institutions. $650 billion has been paid out (not including HAMP; see below). As of December 21, 2009, $117.5 billion of that has been repaid.

Government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) stock purchase: The Treasury controlled by Obama/Emanuel bought $200 million in preferred stock from Fannie Mae and another $200 million from Freddie Mac [PDF] to show that they "will remain viable entities critical to the functioning of the housing and mortgage markets."

GSE mortgage-backed securities purchase: Under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, the Treasury controlled by Obama/Emanuel may buy mortgage-backed securities from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. According to SIGTARP, these purchases could cost as much as $314 billion ---SNIP---.

LONG READ---go to web site to read more and checkout the shocking financial charts.

FYI--CONNECTING THE DOTS: Obama's stranglegold on Treasury via COS Rahm Emanuel's dual role

THE PAPER TRAIL: Soon as they occupied the WH, Obama and the Chicago con artists (a) took control of the US Census; AND, (b) Obama placed his COS Rahm Emanuel in control of the US Dept of the Treasury (the IRS). Read on.

==========================================

THE SMOKING GUN---WSJ REPORT--On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama's Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury---Rahm Emanuel's dual role was an unusual move.

When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings of the Treasury that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials. Reported by WSJ / 05/31/09

More here: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124113406528875137.html

===============================================

Contact Congress Toll Free 1-(866) 220-0044 : All of the Treasury factotums doing Rahm's bidding need to be identified and brought before Congress to testify under oath. We need to know the specifics WRT Emanuel's activities at Treasury including dates and times when Emanuel consorted w/ the IRS.

=================================================

MOMENTS TO REMEMBER Obama was fond of saying "Tea Parties are a threat to democracy."

Obama told hispanics, " we will reward our friends and punish our enemies."

Valerie Jarrett ominously warned, they "would not forget" which Americans did not worship Obama.

============================================

Contact Congress Toll Free 1-(866) 220-0044---Taxpayers demand Congress call govt employees at Treasury (IRS), who were underlings of Obama COS Rahm Emanuel...to testify under oath, including the number of times Emanuel consorted with the IRS.

NOTE: The WJS reported Emanuel's unusual arrangement----his dual role as WH COS and Treasury head.

Obama at the podium suddenly makes Hillary's loss that much clearer.

If she had won....Bill and Chelsea Clinton would be sopping up all that money from speaking fees.....and donations to the foundation.

The Hillary team needs to consider (if they haven't alrady) that Obama sabotaged their efforts at every turn.......to insure he and Michelle con those humongous speaking fees AND donations to his foundation.

Interesting perspective. I do think Obama didn’t want another Clinton president but I saw it from a power perspective. $=power=$.

The post Obama presidency years will be better funded without Clinton for the grifters. So I think your right. I just thought they hated each other.
