WASHINGTON (AP) — Amid a swirl of foreign and border challenges, President Barack Obama is embarking on the one mission that has regularly proved a winner for him — raising money for his fellow Democrats.
Obama on Tuesday was starting a three-day West Coast trip, scheduled to attend at least five fundraising events in Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles less than four months ahead of midterm elections that could change Washington's balance of power.
The trip comes as Obama is dealing with a series of high-profile tests of his presidency, from Eastern Europe to the Middle East to the Southern U.S. border.

Look on the bright side, each time he goes up in AF-1, there’s a chance it will come screaming back down to earth at 600 mph. The bird has been tainted anyway. Need to build a new one.

What an a**-hat this clown is. Golf, vacations, fund-raising, parties . . . and he looks stoned most of the time. The Dem’s should be so proud.
I hope the black Dem’s are just as proud of him when he throws them under the bus for some brown Dem’s. They know the blacks will always vote Dem . . . so under the bus they go.
Fundraiser One..
I like it.. maybe we do need a new liner , a Boeing 9XX, it would have to be a big fellar tho.. to hold all the free iphones and healthcare waiver tokens.. a detachable wine cellar/escape pod and room for a whole section of lobbyists.
You can tell how bad things are by the frequency of Captain Midnight’s fundraising trips and golf outings.

Obama is going about doing exactly as he has panned.
Take any of the crisis as an example. Let’s take Russia and the downing of MH17.
Putin is spreading abject propoganda. Some of the theories they are putting forth (like it is actually MH370, or that a land attack aircraft like a Ukrainian SU-25 shot it down, or that Ukraine intentionally shot it down) are way out there in tin foil land.
The facts though are these:
The Russians have this surface to air missile system. The Ukranians have this same missile system from their days as a part of the Soviet Union.
It is a capable system that can certainly down high flying airliners.
Did the Russians put one of their systems in eastern Ukraine for the separatists/rebels to use? Very possible.
Did the separatists/rebels capture a Ukrainian system and use it? Also possible.
Remember, many eastern Ukrainian citizens are also verterans of the Urkainian military. They could find people who know how to operate the Ukrainian missiles.
So, we do not know which of the systems the separatists/rebels used...but it was certainly that type of SA-11 surface to air missile system that downed the aircraft.
Another very important fact...IMHO, the major responsibility for this horrible disaster has to fall on Malaysian Airlines.
They should never have flown such an aircraft over eastern Ukraine which everyone knows is embroiled in a civil war.
A civil war where the nation divided has the capability to down such aircraft (which means the separatists/rebels could have gotten it), and where the principle supporter of the separatists/rebels (Russia), also has the capability down such aircraft (which also means the separatists/rebels could have gotten it from them).
Crazy to the point of criminal nelgigence IMHO to fly that defenseless aircraft with all of those people on board over such an area.
This doe not absolve the separatists/rebels of all responsibility. But it does place the real owness where it belongs.
I do not believe thr separatists/rebels meant to shoot down a civilian airliner. I think they thought it was a cargo aircraft or, more likely, a surveillance aircraft, from Ukraine. So they shot it down. They are at war.
Probably did not have the proper capabilities to identify or communicate with and discriminate a civilan airliner transponder from a military IFF.
Anyhow, Putin has got thr Russian people behind him, and they are very good at using emotion and nationalistic fervor to gen up support of even some of these crasy theories.
For our part, we have a President who is dedicated to weakening America at every level.
He is not crazy. He is not imcompetant. He is doing exaclty as he has planned all along and using every opportunity to advance that cause.
When you understand this about the man...the rest all falls into place.
It is true that he is not engaged in what you or I would typically expect a US President and Commander in Chief to do.
But he never planned to do that. What he is engaged in is making the United States of America weaker across the board.
Economically
Internationally
Morally
Militarily
Energy wise
Soverignty wise (ie the border)
Traditionally
Educationally
Health wise
In every pssible way imaginable.
And..sadly, tragically...he is being VERY effective at it.
I’ll keep saying it over and over. Amend the Hatch Act.
No sitting president should be allowed to fundraise or campaign.
I guess he’s doing the only thing he knows how to do
After a Presser, Obama usually tries to get as far away from his family as possible by playing Golf, shooting Pool, drinking beer with “the folks,” or spending more time at his REAL day job: bilking money from Democrat Oligarchs, paid for by US Taxpayer Dollars, of course.
Do you hear much of communism these days? Reading between the lines and noticing what is NOT being said.I wondered why communism had appeared to have vanished.
Briefly put,communism is rampant in the ruling elite and those politicians who seem to come out of nowhere are communist backed
Obama, A one trick pony? That must frustrate SoRo$ deeply..
OH vell,, it’s hard to find a good ride these days,, unless you buy foreign.. Some say.
Complicity and conspiracy are ten letter words,, they both come to mind for me, for the possibilities that elements of the free press may be described as ensnared in its own mission to inform and challenge and instead choose to outright ignore and filter content to meet an agenda,, lapdogs to tyranny, nothing more.. Notice the golf shots are way off. Coincidence?
