Has he No Shame … Obama Likened Himself to Martin Luther King, Jr at Fundraiser
DESPERATION OF A DOWNGRADED OBAMA PRESIDENT ….
How desperate has President Barack Obama become? Even at a fund raiser with uber-libs is Blue, Blue New York, the Obamamessiah compares himself to Martin Luther King, Jr. I guess falsely comparing Obama to Lincoln and Reagan was not working. Unbelievable that Obama would even reference his name in the same sentence as MLK Jr. How smug must Obama really be?
What ever happened to the 2008 Barack Obama brand of “Hope & Change”? Its safe to say that its been shown to be a fraud. The real issue is with Obama is that he has to try and compare himself with some one else, because as Barack Obama he has been a complete and total failure.
Before leaving, Obama likened himself to one more figure. Martin Luther King, Jr.
“I think that we forget when he was alive there was nobody who was more vilified, nobody who was more controversial, nobody who was more despairing at times,” he said.
Oh yea, I get Obama and MLK, Jr mixed up all the time, check out the two videos below and hear the similarities.
Funny, I hardly think any one would call MLK, Obama-like
Not only has the US credit rating been downgraded, it would appear so has Barack Obama has been downgraded as well. Remember the BS spewed below during the 2008 campaign when the Obamamessiah proclaimed that “this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal” to Obama’s more recent whiny complaining.

More Obama Hope & Change: US Consumer Confidence Drops to Lowest Since Carter
Oh Yeah, He’s re-electable …
Once again we are witness to more “Hope & Change” from President Barack Obama … How many voters have buyer’s remorse? Obama and his minions try and compare him to Reagan and Lincoln … SORRY, OBAMA IS CARTERESQUE!
Move over Jimmy Carter … American has Barack Obama, the worst President in modern American history. What more damage can Obama do to America? I am guessing he contemplates that while golfing. The fact of the matter is that confidence in Obama is gone and is in no sign of ever coming back. Obama has done out of his way to implement policies that have failed and continues down the same path of failed polices and agendas. Obama has never been a leader, he was a talker and a campaigner. All of America is finally figuring it out. HAS A COUNTRY EVER HAD MORE BUYER’S REMORSE IN A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION?
The unemployment rate continues to be over 9% and the underemployment is at 18.1%. Barack Obama is the first US President to reside over an economy that has had a downgrade of its credit rating. Add one more notch to Obama’s belt … consumer confidence has dropped to the lowest level in three decades. Not since the Presidency and “MISERY” of Jimmy Carter has the consumer confidence been so low.
Confidence among U.S. consumers plunged in August to the lowest level since May 1980, adding to concern that weak employment gains and volatility in the stock market will prompt households to retrench.
The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan preliminary index of consumer sentiment slumped to 54.9 from 63.7 the prior month. The gauge was projected to decline to 62, according to the median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey.
The biggest one-week slump in stocks since 2008 and the threat of default on the nation’s debt may have exacerbated consumers’ concerns as unemployment hovers above 9 percent and companies are hesitant to hire. Rising pessimism poses a risk household spending will cool further, hindering a recovery that Federal Reserve policy makers said this week was already advancing “considerably slower” than projected.
According to a recent Gallup poll, only 8% of Americans think that the economy is good or excellent, while 55% believe its poor. It gets worse, or better if you are Barack Obama … 80% believe the US economy is getting worse, only 16% believe its getting better. That 16% either need their heads examined or root for the total destruction of America.
The numbers on the consumer sentiment index fell to 54.9 in early August, down from 63.7 in July, and the index has fallen for three straight months. Gallup has economic confidence at -56. Thanks Barack Obama.
Unemployment at 9.1 percent of the workforce, low wage rises, and the protracted debate in Congress over raising the U.S. government debt ceiling spooked consumers, survey director Richard Curtin said in a statement.
“Never before in the history of the surveys have so many consumers spontaneously mentioned negative aspects of the government’s role,” Curtin said.
“This was more than the simple recognition that traditional monetary and fiscal policy measures were largely spent. It was the realization that the government was unable or unwilling to act,” Curtin added.
Bad economic times were expected by 75 percent of all consumers in early August, just below the all-time peak of 82 percent in 1980. Buying plans for household durables and vehicles declined in early August, falling back to their recession level lows.
Barack Obama and his policies have crushed the spirit of Americans. According to a recent Rasmussen poll, only 32% say America’s best days are in the future. What inspiration Barack has given us. Is it any wonder why Obama has a -22% Rasmussen Presidential Index and an overall job approval rating of -6.3%.
As the Gateway Pundit states, its Barack Obama’s “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED”. 2012 can not get here fast enough. “We the People” need to take our country and future back in 2012 and throw this clown out of office in resounding and “landslideable” fashion.
Michelle Obama Spent 42 Days on Vacation This Year … Have You?
LET THEM EAT CAKE …
While many Americans find themselves out of work, underwater in their mortgage, or having economic trouble making ends meet … first lady Michelle Obama has spent 42 days on vacation this year, on the tax payers dime. This does not even count the 9 days that Michelle will spend on vacation in Martha’s Vineyard later this month. I guess this must be Michelle’s SACRIFICE and SKIN IN THE GAME that her husband Barack Obama refers to.
First Lady Michelle Obama over the last year has spent a total of 42 days on vacation, or a little more than one out of every nine days, according to a White House Dossier analysis of her travel.
Her vacations, the cost of which are mostly borne by taxpayers, include trips to Panama City, Fla., Martha’s Vineyard, Hawaii, South Africa, Latin America, Vail, Colo., and her visit this week to her brother in Corvallis, Ore. [...]
Taxpayers pick up most of the cost of transporting the first lady and her extensive entourage – including Secret Service and her staff – to her various destinations. While she may in some cases pay some of the tab for her personal expenses and travel, the amount is dwarfed by the overall cost to the public.
Why should Michelle Obama set an example for Americans and show any empathy for those in the US that are struggling? After all she does the same thing when she tells others what to eat while doing much different for herself and Barack. As stated at Weasel Zippers, last year Queen Michelle spent 1 out of every 9 days on vacation, not counting the junkets to Ireland and Great Britain.
For Barack and Michelle who love to play class warfare, how do you think the common folk are going to react to doing without, while they pay for your vacations? The notion that these people do not comprehend that going on lavish vacations while Americans are struggling will be seen in a negative shows just how out of touch they truly are. I doubt whether this is the “hope & change” that people ever dreamed of.

Three year old Breeann Rodriguez has been missing since Saturday, August 6, 2011; however, there has been a break in the case. According to Dunklin County police they have arrested a suspect in the little three year old’s disappearance.The unnamed suspect is from Senath; however, is not related to the family. He is being held Dunklin County Justice Center pending formal charges.
Missing: Breeann Rodriguez, Missing Exploited Children
Police in Dunklin County have a suspect in custody in the case of missing 3-year-old Breeann Rodriguez, and are set to hold a press conference at Noon in Kennett.
Police say the suspect is from the Senath or surrounding area and is not related to the family. The suspect is being held at the Dunklin County Justice Center pending formal charges. There is no more information on the identity of the suspect available. The man’s name is being withheld pending formal charges.
Police say even though a suspect is in custody, Breeann is still missing.
The Dunklin County Major Case Squad, Missouri State Highway Patrol, and the Missouri Department of Conservation are currently searching for the girl’s body and her bicycle in an undisclosed area in Dunklin County.
Breeann Rodriguez was last seen August 6, 2011 riding her pink bicycle in front of her home in nearby Senath. On Thursday of this week, two small bicycle training wheels were found in an area of “heavy brush” located approximately two miles away from Breeann’s home. The FBI said may have come from the Breeann’s bicycle.
According to authorities, they are searching for the girl’s body and her bicycle in an undisclosed area in Dunklin County. One has to wonder whether the police have been provided information from the suspect as to the whereabouts of Breeann’s body in lieu of a lesser charge for his cooperation?
Dunklin County Prosecutor’s Office said that they would not comment further and will release more information after the suspect is formally charged.
UPDATE I: 43 year old neighbor Shawn Morgan Arrested and charged with first degree murder.
Shawn Morgan, 43, of Ode Johnson Street in Senath, Mo., faces charges of first-degree murder, armed criminal action and tampering with physical evidence. Authorities said they believe Morgan suffocated Breeann, although as of Saturday evening, they were still searching for her body and her bicycle in an undisclosed part of the county.

18 Year Old US Ski Team member Robert “Sandy” Vietze Pisses on an 11 Year Old Girl Abord Jet Blue Flight (Update: Vietze Given the Boot from US Ski Team)
WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON IN THIS COUNTRY?
Not to make light of the following story because its as absurd and vile as ever seen … Robert “Sandy” Vietze just “PISSED” his Olympic dreams down the drain. Sadly and most pathetically, it wasn’t down the drain, it was on an 11 year old girl, sleeping on a plane.
Robert “Sandy” Vietze, a member of the US Ski Team, in a drunken stooper peed on an 11 year old girl while she slept aboard a Jet Blue flight. Making matters worse, if possible, he did not apologize. Who does this? Who is that drunk that you would actually piss on another individual? What a POS. This is what America has on its Olympic Ski team? Hopefully not much longer as this disgrace should be booted off the team immediately. Vietze admitted to police that he had consumed eight alcoholic beverages before boarding JetBlue Flight 166.
The drunken JetBlue passenger who treated a sleeping 11-year-old girl like his personal potty is a member of the US Ski Team who refused to apologize yesterday for the high-altitude humiliation.
Robert “Sandy” Vietze, 18, is among the 75 most elite skiers in the nation — but he may have blown his chance to compete in the 2014 Winter Games in Russia.
His name was bumped from the team’s developmental roster yesterday afternoon, although officials refused to comment about his status.
The leaky loser expressed no remorse outside his family’s palatial Vermont home, where he ignored questions about the incident and showed no interest in apologizing to his victim.
Wait, the story gets even worse if possible. The dad of the young girl who Vietze pissed on as state 4 cancer. What kind of a miserable, entitled individual does not apologize? BUT WAIT, every one has seemed to have missed one fact due to the appalling nature of someone peeing on and 11 year old. HE ADMITTED TO HAVING 8 DRINKS! Um, he is 18 years old … who was serving a minor 8 drinks at the airport bar?
