Late last night, the White House announced that there would be no pool coverage for Sunday, January 10. While the President had no scheduled events this weekend, there was pool coverage yesterday.
It could be a mere coincidence, or it could be that the White House is trying to catch its breath before responding to bombshell revelations in the upcoming book Game Change,excerpts of which poured out all day yesterday. President Obama already issued a statement about Harry Reid’s “negro dialect” quote, but even more explosive passages have emerged since.
The newest passages from the book to hit Marc Ambinder’s blog could be even more explosive than Reid’s, as several of them involve the Clintons. Among these is an anecdote about the late Ted Kennedy taking offense at President Clinton’s assertion that “A few years ago this guy (Barack Obama) would have been getting us coffee.”
While pool reporters are normally just there to observe and report, the only thing stopping them from peppering the President with questions is the icy stare of the press staff.
Also of interest, Jake Tapper reviews President Obama’s responses to other racially incendiary remarks in the past, which have some crying “Hypocrisy!” I would point out that the devil is in the details. In each case, Obama provides a fairly clear rationale. In Reid’s case, it seems he earned a storehouse of goodwill that the others cited did not.

LOL. Oh this is gonna be great.

Obama out golfing again?

Eleanor Holms Norton’s “Racism Credits” take the demosphere
by storm. “So simple , so elegant. Why didn’t we think of it?” New York Times.
Dereliction of duty doesn't bother him.
As usual, he heads for a closet.
I'm sorry, but leaving a girl to drown in a few feet of water while you work your butt off to try to escape blame, kind of makes you lose any qualifications you might think you have as a moral arbiter. It's like Tony Soprano getting mad at Paulie Walnuts if Paulie uses the "N" word.
Meantime, the repeated false accusation by McCain’s handlers that Sarah Palin wasn’t up to prepping for the Biden debate seems to have been lost in the shuffle.
I think that was supposed to be the blockbuster revelation, but it seems to have been overwhelmed by all these Democrat racist gaffes.

60 minutes won’t have tine to cover all the democrat stories, but Drudge has one last week about Hillary being so certain she was going to win, that she had hired two people for her transition team for the White House...lol.
Legalize baby killing in a pill form and the so-called feminists will forever turn a blind eye to rape. It's amazing what the left can do by living in a land of make believe!
Well....the impostor was disturbed on his vacation and didn’t get a rest away from the office...he needed...he had to work...now he is being slapped with more uncomfortable stuff...and he is just plain tired of it all...maybe the mental meltdown we’ve been expecting.......HA
Quite a comment from the so-called "first black President"
Remember, Glenn says this week something big will break that will make the ACORN pimp-prostitute ordeal look tiny.
If it is that big, do we get an insulated Whitehouse like Nixon, which is really Ironic, since Mark Levin calls the Bamster, Richard Millhouse....

They are just like Carbon Credits, you can store up
before hand or even buy them as you need them depending
on your Racist Footprint.
