This beltway leftist is the one renting his house to Valerie's man child and Michelle after they leave the house they've occupied...a millionaire sucking up to another millionaire going to work for billionaires and millionaires.

But he cares about the game, really.

Glad I've pretty much ignored the NFL since they refused to let Rush Limbaugh participate in ownership.

The NFL feels the need to hire a professional liar so they went out and got one of the best.

Trump is hated by the NFL. Remember the New Jersey Generals?

I encountered this guy one time back in Fall of ‘99. I didn’t meet him, we were just at the same place and time at the WH.

He’s much shorter than he appears on TV, a very dumpy man. Hunched over and thinking of other things was my impression. I have no idea how he could have been the face of the Xlintons. I guess the right camera angle makes anyone look good.

I find it interesting that he’s suddenly back in the news. He’s leasing a multi-million dollar house in DC to Our Dear Leader.

How the heck does a mid-grade, flash in the pan, civil servant earn enough money to buy a four million dollar house in DC? And then rent it out to a (soon to be) ex President?????

Thanks for posting. I haven’t watched the NFL in years (around 20 yrs. for any Lions games). Interesting.

No love for Joe here, but I think Obama’s liars were worse. Joe ain’t gonna keep me from supporting the NY Giants.

Here’s the Kalorama Home Where the Obamas Will Live After Leaving the White House

President Obama and his family have reportedly decided to lease an 8,200-square-foot mansion in DC’s Kalorama neighborhood after they leave the White House next January. The eight-bedroom, nine-and-a-half-bathroom residence is owned by Glover Park Group co-founder Joe Lockhart and his wife, Giovanna Gray Lockhart, the Washington editor of Glamour.

As I recall the NFL indicated it would reject Rush being part of a group which wanted to buy the Rams.

Potential NFL owners have to be approved by a 3/4 vote of the other owners, to be allowed to buy into an NFL franchise. I assume it was legal for the NFL to set up their organization that way.

Anybody else remember more details about Rush and his group bidding on the Rams. As I recall they were told Rush would not be approved . I don’t think it ever went to a formal vote though.

I stopped watching after they put that stupid computerized arrow on the field with the down count. (Like I didn’t know that already!)

Joe may be the shadow buyer/owner. Fishy arrangements are not uncommon when it comes to getting Democrat ex-presidents seated at all the right tables.

Why do I think Soros owns that house, it’s ridiculous, right?

Hey, the disbarred, impeached, perjuring former president has the best mobile home on the hillside as his library in Arkansas.

Maybe hussein will build the biggest, bestest, crack house/bathhouse library in Martha’s Vineyard.

Courtesy of the richest Kapo in the world.

Pending Valerie’s approval, of course.

[As a sidenote, does anyone know if the clinton’s are still charging the Secret Service rent on their NY property that coincidentally covers their $12k/month mortgage?]
