We’re in the midst of an obamalaise.
I loved the Drudge headline:
Jerry Springer: “Obama is a great President!”
That one’s got got to churn the liberal bile ducts like a swizzlestick made of no.10 grit sandpaper.

How much more “liberal” could Obama be short of setting up gulags and re-education camps? The leftists are nuts.

“Latinos are among the most disenchanted Democratic voting bloc, as they are furious at the White House for repeatedly violating promises on immigration reform. Large numbers of Latino voters now blame both parties almost equally for failures in immigration policy.”
White liberal fantasizing.

“Obama’s Deficit Commission was structured so as to ensure recommendations for, among other things, cuts in Social Security benefits,”
That is true, but I think it more they going ask for SS tax increases under the false premise that SS is in trouble.

OK, how many of those who label themselves as conservatives also support the homosexual name change of same?
It keeps getting alleged. But what are the stats?
I don’t believe it and I’m not buying it.

They must have LEOs do the actual arrest.
Next question, how many of those voters are legally allowed to vote?

Notice the direction of that soldier’s glance: right at 0bama’s hand on his shoulder.
He doesn’t look pleased.
That patronizing violation of other’s space is a deliberate move by 0bama to put the other person in check, to control the situation.
Just one more clue about 0bama’s superiority complex.

Just one more clue about 0bamas superiority complex.He's living in his own world. It's perhaps how he fooled so many into electing him, because he's living in a fantasy and sincerely thought everyone should join him.

What’s most amazing about this is that Democrats generally and the White House specifically seem completely uninterested in doing anything about this — other than exacerbating it.
