Obama juggles presidential duties, campaigning (Barf alert)

Trying to keep his job as he does his job, President Barack Obama assured the nation Tuesday that his administration was capably ready for a menacing Hurricane Isaac. And then he climbed aboard his helicopter and went searching for votes.

Obama's swift pivot illustrated the president's juggle of governing and campaigning — and that neither stops in an election year.

Standing alone in the White House Diplomatic Room, Obama first reminded TV viewers, in so many words, that he is the only president in the race.

Succinct and serious, Obama said he had ordered federal help in place in the Gulf Coast. His administration would do "everything possible."

And he warned Americans in the storm's path: "Now is not the time to tempt fate. You need to take this seriously."

By afternoon, Obama the campaigner appeared.

"I am Barack Obama and I approve of this message."

Free campaign ads every day for a racist punk.

The slobbering love affair continues.

Dem Talking Point. NPR was swooning over this tidbit this morning. He campaigns, he manages dangerous hurricanes, he rescues the economy — all at the same time. Humanity has never witnessed such greatness before.

Next we’ll see little girls running up to him with bunches of flowers ala Stalin.

Does AP ever get tired of promoting this failed president? Apparently not.

[vekzen]

Have these media idiots read “The Amateur” the bestselling book that reveals Obama as a functionally inept executive?

[hal ogen]

Note to self: I must remember each day upon rising to get on my knees in front of a picture of our Great Leader, nobama, to offer him praise for his perfection.

*** I am Barack Obama and I approve of this message." ***

Yeah I get that just from what's posted. No need to read anything further. And the only thing O'DUmmie juggles with his non-stop campaigning is, GOLF. I'd also bet that Barry knows when his next Tee Time is better than he knows when he's supposed to meet the next Head Of State.

The main reason Barry wants to be the POTUS is so he can play FREE GOLF at private courses that wouldn't hire him to rake the Sand Traps!

Then again, legally they couldn't hire him since he has a Phony Social Security Card!

THE CHOOM GUY

Obama was a Choom guy,
Puff, puff, puff.
Fried his brain,
Sure enough.

Sucking on his Nipple-weed
When things got tough,
Dumbing down his brain
To fit right in,
Getting into Politics,
Where there is no sin.

Then came the Con,
From Chi to DC,
Where incompetence can hide
AND be very PC.

Nobel Prize, and Corporate Jet,
Goes to the Choom guy,
Puff, puff, puff.

When not campaigning he is golfing.

[vaudine]

Hasn't AP noticed he dropped the pins that read Presidential duties? He is only juggling the pins that read campaign.---Of course not.

AP is like a proud parent with one rotten kid whose faults they view with forgiveness and see only perfection.

More likely; he wrote the message. Or ‘someone’ close; like Axelrod or somesuch. Obama House has taken over all media messaging; so it only makes sense.

[Inwoodian]

How do 110 rounds of golf fit into his cramped schedule?

[lacrew]

I bet he golfs better than that Korean dictator.

[treetopsandroofs]

A necessary evil.

He must stink at golf worse than he stinks up the oval office, or else Big Media would be playing up his golf game.

[Fresh Wind]

The only things O-Bah-Mah juggles are little white balls. Golf balls, that is.

[Vaduz]

The only thing Obama can juggle is the books and facts.

Obama’s golfing all next week?
