Obama has been spouting his "eat the rich" baloney for so long that he forgot it was just leftist propaganda. The incumbent who is shooting for a billion-dollar Presidential campaign isn't relying on the little guy to fund it. The richest ATM machines are found in the most expensive parts of our big cities, and San Francisco can even compete with New York City in that category. If he really was the man of the people he claims to be, he would have held his fundraisers at a rib joint in the Bay View or Hunters Point section of town. But he would only have raised about $5.47 and a bag of food stamps.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-9838334520420185822011-04-24T17:12:47.095-04:002011-04-24T17:12:47.095-04:00T_Rav: This was perfect "idiot's irony.&...T_Rav: This was perfect "idiot's irony." The only thing that kept it from being absolute ecstasy for me was the obvious fact that the MSM pretty much hid it from the general public.

But some state secrets need to remain, well, secret. That includes secret negotiations with allies, and anything that endangers American military and civil authorities overseas. Obama simply didn't understand that the irrational hatred for the American military and American interests would spill over into his own support groups. So he got caught unprepared for his acolytes attacking the altar.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-89156350289646491462011-04-24T17:03:33.039-04:002011-04-24T17:03:33.039-04:00LL: He got a little better treatment at a later p...LL: He got a little better treatment at a later private fundraiser in the megabucks Presidio Heights section of town. I don't know where that $35,800 figure comes from, but it seems to recur (a sign of the coming apocalypse, perhaps?). At the private bash it was $35,800 <i>per ticket</i>, period. FaceBook Boy was there, along with the Swig family (former owners of the Fairmont Hotel), half the Democratic bigwigs from the Bay Area, and the CEO of Google, among the stellar figures. <br /><br />But my absolute favorite was will-i-am of the tuneless Black Eyed Peas. He sat with Obama at the head table. Perfect--one can't hold a tune and the other is tone-deaf.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-23914700400482403972011-04-24T16:50:30.891-04:002011-04-24T16:50:30.891-04:00Tennessee: Excellent and completely appropriate S...Tennessee: Excellent and completely appropriate <i>Star Trek</i> quote.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-13867259689255696752011-04-24T16:45:19.919-04:002011-04-24T16:45:19.919-04:00LawHawk, I heard about this the other day.

I don't like the "Free Manning" idiots any more than I like the White House idiot, but it is nice to see some of Obama's own lackeys turning on him. Unfortunately, they'll still support him next year, but it's nice to see him be so publicly called out like that. "Schadenfreude" is very definitely the proper word. <br /><br />Oh, and Happy Easter all!T_Ravnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-73975578888714945312011-04-24T16:30:04.703-04:002011-04-24T16:30:04.703-04:00I knew this Wikileaks thing was going to be a prob...I knew this Wikileaks thing was going to be a problem for Obama.<br /><br />As a RATIONAL believer in open government, I am in favor of most open disclosure of government actions and I tend to support whistleblowers rights. I don't think Wikileaks falls into that category because they are not exposing wrong doing, they are simply exposing what they can get for fun -- as evidenced by many of their prior disclosures like college frat rituals.<br /><br />BUT.... Obama's supporters aren't rational, they simply hate certain institutions. So when they heard that this was leaked at the expense of the military, that's all they needed to hear. Wikileaks could have gassed Africa for all they cared, so long as it was aimed at the evil military, they were sold that Wikileaks was a hero.<br /><br />Obama made the mistake of believing that his side was more rational than that, that their attack on Bush was political in nature rather than insane. He was wrong, as he's now discovering.AndrewPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312364467936820986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-82271370367837387792011-04-24T16:29:19.136-04:002011-04-24T16:29:19.136-04:00Poor Barry/Barack.
