Valerie Jarrett: Obama is sleeping through his Presidency
Flopping Aces ^ | 01-01-11 | DrJohn

Barack Obama and his gang think you’re an idiot. The sad part is that they are 43% right.

Byron York reports on Valerie Jarrett’s recent appearance on Meet the Press during which she made quite apparent that she and her boss really believe Americans are blatantly stupid. Jarrett shared this thought:

On "Meet the Press" December 26, top White House adviser Valerie Jarrett said President Obama's "biggest regret" is that the severity of the economic crisis forced him to "spend almost every waking hour in Washington focusing very hard on solving that crisis" and thus kept him from traveling the country to connect with the American people.

Every waking hour. If Jarrett is to be taken seriously it means that Barack Obama has slept through a significant portion of the last two years. In addition, Obama says he needs to spend more time outside of Washington.

There’s a problem with that, according to Mark Knoller.

But it turns out Obama has already spent nearly half his presidency outside Washington. As of January 2, Obama has been president for 712 days. According to figures compiled by CBS News reporter Mark Knoller, who serves as a sort of unofficial White House record-keeper, Obama has spent 339 of those days -- nearly 48 percent -- outside Washington.

Is there a reason you post only threads from one source and never post comments?

Poor baby. Didn't anybody explain to him during the campaign that if he won the Presidency he wouldn't have that much time to hang with his peeps?

Well, not counting the 50 or so days he played golf. Or the 10 or so vacations he took. Or the time off he took to play basketball. Or the many fundraisers he attended.

Barry, if you really miss runnin' with your posse, why don't you just resign? Then you'll have all the time in the world to meet people and stuff your face full of hot dogs and ice cream and cigarettes.

Seriously, dude. If this job is too much for you to handle, we understand. As one of your opponents said during one of the debates, the position does not lend itself to on-the-job training.

Chill out. Relax. You've got the world's greatest retirement package awaiting you. Take advantage of it. We understand.

The guy is almost never on the job. Thats because he is a cardboard-cutout president. He is just there for show.

Valerie Jarrett and Michelle Obama’s mother have no problem with Barak being out of the White House.

They are pretty much running the country and having Barak out streamlines their decision making

Some type of double speak. Pelosi and Obama have also used. They state the opposite of what is really happening. Declare it the truth.

I recall Jarrett stating that the bamster will be spending much more time out of the WH in the coming year. Whether this is for campaign purposes we really don’t know but when Willly’s numbers were in the dirt he did the exact opposite when he was Prez & STAYED at the WH & brought his numbers back up by actually STAYING ON THE JOB.

I don’t foresee the ‘bam being a 2nd termer. I’ll be glad when he is out,too. Good Riddance & let’s get Sarah in their to run this country right!!

Dear Valerie, that piece of crap has no ability to even connect to his wife. He has been “out there” for over two years now. He is a fraud and a phony and no amount of manufactured BS can hide the lyin’ Marxist that resides inside. He has done nothing but truly damage the American people. Maybe you folks can still peddle that BS to the ignorant sheeple who have a hard time graduating from your dumbed down schools, but not us.

Thanks
