More Shared Sacrifice from First Lady Michelle Obama … Wears $42,000 Katie Decker Diamond Cuffs … Let Them Eat Cake

Michelle Obama just doesn’t get it or she just doesn’t care … more from the First Lady of Obama’s shared sacrifice. It really is an Obamanation.

First Lady Michelle Obama sports $42,150 Katie Decker diamond cuffs.  Does Michelle get the fact that she is the first lady of the United States where there is an unemployment rate over 9% and millions of Americans are out of work and not a jet-setting fashion model? Obviously not. Is this the image that Michelle Obama really wants to present to “We the People”?  Sorry, but no matter what party is in office, with an economic situation like what is taking place in the US, no first lady should be dressing so lavishly as if she thinks she is Marie Antoinette

The Obama empathy of the unemployed, out of work and food stamp recipients

That was no ordinary bling on the wrist of First Lady Michelle Obama at the DNC fundraiser in New York Tuesday night. Those fancy diamond cuffs were the creation of 23-year-old Katie Decker, whose namesake jewelry line has been making a serious splash since her graduation from Texas A&M two years ago.

If you’ve been saving your nickels and dimes, the cuffs are available locally at Judith Ann Jewels. The First Lady wore Katie’s Lotus cuff priced at $15,000 with 2.9 carats of diamonds, her Gothic cuff at $15,350 with 2.17 carats in diamonds and the Quatrefoil bracelet at $11,800 with 1.73 carats in diamonds.

Should we expect anything any different from the wife of the “Middle class” warrior. These two might as well live it up while they can, get all the perks, vacations and golf out of their present situation, because as of the 2012 election, Barack Obama will be added to the first time filers of unemployment benefits.

Barack Obama, A President to No Where … “I, I, I, I, I’m, I’m a warrior for the middle class”

When you have to continuously tell people, it’s not class warfare and that “I, I, I, I, I’m, I’m a warrior for the middle class,” chances are neither statement is the truth. But what else should we expect from the “I, I, I, Me, Me, Me” President?

“Now the Republicans, you know when I, I talked about this earlier in the week. They said ‘well, this is class warfare.’ You know what? If asking a billionaire to pay their fair of taxes. To pay the same tax rate as a plumber or a teacher is class warfare, then you know what? I, I, I, I, I’m, I’m a warrior for the middle class. I’m happy to fight for the middle class,” President Obama said at the Brent Spence Bridge in Cincinnati, OH.

Interestingly enough, former President Bill Clinton thought that Obama’s jobs, federal deficit and “Buffet” rule was a little confusing and a lot misguided. Clinton basically rejected the millionaire tax, knowing that it will hinder economic growth and be taxed to individuals who make much less that $1 million.

Former President Bill Clinton says Obama’s approach to taming the federal deficit “is a little confusing” and suggests that raising taxes would blockade any efforts to revive the stale U.S. economy. During an interview with Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy in New York, where Clinton held the 10th annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative, the former President discussed political topics such as climate change, tax policy, and government regulations. He also mentioned the possibility of his wife, Hillary, running for President in 2016, naming her “the ablest person in my generation.”

Clinton conceded to Ruddy that he was somewhat baffled with President Obama’s newly-announced tax plan — the “Buffett Rule” — which would raise taxes on individuals earning over $1 million. “In the speech that the president gave to Congress, he didn’t propose any new taxes. The speech was $250 billion in tax cuts, $250 billion in spending over a period of two to three years. It focused mostly on a rather innovative set of payroll tax cuts and incentives to hire people,” Clinton asserted.

Democrat Pollster Stan Greenberg Says Barack Obama Dragging Down Democrat Party

President Barack Obama goes from “The One” to THE ANCHOR.

Following the 2008 Presidential election Barack Obama was touted as “The One”, a rock start and the Obamamessiah. That was then and this is now. Democrat pollster Stan Greenberg has some grim news for Democrats. Believe it or not, polling data shows that Democrats are in worse shape for the 2012 elections than the shellacking they took in the 2010 midterm elections.  Democrats  have President Barack Obama to thank. Obama might as well be cement shoes on the feet of the Democrat party.  Greenberg has Obama losing to either GOP Presidential candidate Rick Perry or Mitt Romney.

One of the Democratic party’s leading pollsters released a survey of 60 Republican-held battleground districts today painting an ominous picture for Congressional Democrats in 2012. The poll shows Democratic House candidates faring worse than they did in the 2010 midterms, being dragged down by an unpopular president who would lose to both Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Mitt Romney.

Pollster Stan Greenberg released the poll with some sugary spin for Democrats, downplaying the results by arguing that the president’s jobs plan will improve the party’s fortunes.

In 60 battleground districts polled by Greenberg,  the data showed that there was not an anti-incumbent sentiment. Instead there was a definite backlash against Democrats. Of course this follows similar data from Rasmussen

Instead of an overall anti-incumbent sentiment impacting members of both parties, voters are taking more of their anger out on Democrats. When voters were asked whether they’re supporting the Republican incumbent or a Democratic candidate, 50 percent preferred the Republican and just 41 percent backed the Democrat.

Voters in these districts said they were more supportive of Republicans than they were during the 2010 midterms, when 48 percent said they backed the Republican candidate and 42 percent said they backed the Democrat. (Republicans won 55 percent of the overall vote in these 60 battleground districts, while Democrats took 43 percent.) In 2010, Republicans netted 63 House seats – their best showing since 1948.

Obama and Democrats like DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz can act like nothing is wrong all they want, Democrat pollster Stan Greenberg knows better. When an incumbent President has a job approval rating in the low 40′s, unemployment is consistently above 9% and a sitting Democrat President has lost ground with all voting demographics, including Jews and blacks … Houston Democrats, you have a problem.

Full polling data from the Greenberg-Carville poll can be seen HERE.

Putting a “sugary-spin” to such terrible polling data takes a trained professional to even attempt to make sugar from sh&t and Obama polling numbers from 48/47 approval/disapproval rating in the surveyed districts to a 41/55 today. YIKES! As Red State opines, why would any Democrat want a political campaign visit and stump speech from Obama? Unless for some reason you drew the sort straw. Seriously, how does any Democrat in a competitive, swing district have Obama come to their district or state? What is Obama going to stump about that will inspiring voters, the economy, the federal deficit, the unemployment rate, Obamacare? Look for many districts that were once considered safe for Democrats to be in play in 2012. Democrat Senators in battleground states like Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Missouri and Virginia will find hanging on to these seats, difficult at best.

EXIT QUESTION: If the 2010 midterm election was a shellacking, what would you call the 2012 election when Democrats lose the Presidency, control of the US Senate and further loses in the House?
