Will this be in the New York Times?

Absolutely. Let me show you what it shall look like:

COURAGEOUS OBAMA FOILS CONGRESS
Undertakes Peace Initiative In Middle East

Washington (NYT) -- In an end-run around a recalcitrant and combative Congress, President Obama sent much-needed funds to the Palestinian Authority on Friday.

This move, trumpeted by the White House as a peacemaking gesture intended to stabilize the nascent Palestinian government, comes amid shrieks of protest from right-wing Congressmen.

"How dare he," sputtered John Boehner, "This is unconstitutional and illegal!" Several professors and media pundits were quick to disagree, "Nothing Obama does is unconstitutional. Look at the Supreme Court! How often have they ruled against him?" said George Stephanopolous.

(Etcetera)

Little bammy is far too humble to allow any such fanfare over his defense of the downtrodden.

His actual response was low-key and quiet, reflecting his ongoing desire to not take credit for his great deeds of humanitarianism.

Section 3 of Congress’s Palestinian Accountability Act, which applies to 2012, stipulates that “no funds available to any United States Government department or agency … may be obligated or expended with respect to providing funds to the Palestinian Authority.” Obama has now signed a waiver, however, the White House said Friday,



Well GOLLY!

He signed a waver for himself.

That settles that.

Sadly, a good possibility, yet I am starting to entertain hopes that the self-imposed, self-centered, condescending whores that consider themselves the elite are starting to wake up to fact that they have created a frigging monster.

Cuba is all very well, and an excellent destination for a Birkenstock romp with the peasantry, but one does not actually want to live in such a dreary place. They had no idea that the Socialist they invested with power was going to do exactly what he said he was going to do. They never considered, even remotely, is that somewhere along the line they would stop being the elite.

Now they are beginning to look with alarm at the reality of the force they set in motion. They see a wrecking ball that could upset their cozy lifestyles, their sinecures, and their power base, in numerous unpleasant ways.
