No TV dinners or coupon clipping for these two.
You’d think the current president lives in Boystown. Or, at least wants to. For all SORTS of reasons.
It’s party all the time in this White House. While tens of millions are without jobs, don’t have enough money to keep dinner on the table every night, and are going without the basics, it’s a twirling, whirling, “Night at Versailles”, every night, in the People’s House these days.
Last night, the theme was “Hollywood Glamour”, with Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks brought in to entertain Dr. Utopia and his “fashion icon” wife.
“Entertain me! I need to be entertained! This lack of entertainment vexes me! I am terribly, terribly vexed!”, the president shouted from the middle of rows of plush red velvet seats in the White House screening room.
Spielberg, dressed up as E.T., was forced to recreate various scenes from his many films, his voice grown hoarse from repeatedly roaring like a T. Rex from Jurassic Park.
“Sounds just like Oprah when she’s hungry!,” the First Lady hooted, throwing popcorn into the air and all over the carpet, because she thinks that looks pretty and also loves the fact other people have to clean her mess up. “I’m proud of that dinosaur for the first time in my adult life!”.
Hanks was told to re-enact movies he wasn’t actually even in, like the underwear scene from Risky Business, the “Let’s Hear It For the Boy” dance montage from Footloose, and the end of Ferris Buehler where Matthew Broderick ran through the backyards of a suburban Chicago neighborhood, jumping over fences, trying to beat his parents back home.
“That s*** is funny. I am entertained!,” the president guffawed, despite aides repeatedly trying to tell him Hanks wasn’t even in any of those movies. “Who cares. Don’t get all wee-weed up. All those old white guys look the same. MORE ENTERTAINMENT, NOW!”.
Apparently, tomorrow night’s theme will be “Bedrock and Roll”, where random celebrities will be forced to dress up as characters from “The Flintstones” so the First Lady can wear her coffee filter, Hanna-Barbera inspired Inaugural Gown one more time before she “has to give it to that museum even though (she) doesn’t want to and hates giving people anything”.
What Recession?
Restraint and setting a good example?
What’s that?
MORE ENTERTAINMENT NOW!

We have a King and Queen, not two servants as intended in the constitution.
Oh, make that two queens.

I thought scooting the Dali Llama out the rear garbage chute was a terrible thing. Now this, the family must be evicted.
The value of the whitehouse has been lowered by over 20 Million since they moved in. I hope it is still standing in 2012.
March 12, 2010 at 11:34 am
Exactly: Barry and Michelle are SUPPOSED to be public servants, in service to our nation.
We do not HAVE a king or queen in the United States.
King George III got that message long ago.
Barry and Michelle Antoinette are nouveaux riche, classless, crassy, low-rent, worthless moochers.
March 12, 2010 at 2:04 pm
MichelleIndependent-you always nail it perfectly.
March 12, 2010 at 11:36 am
P.S.
My brother and his wife, both very hard-working and good people, barely make ends meet and had a very meager Christmas for their kids.
Where are the jobs, Barry you incompetent idiot?
These lavish parties and living large in the WH are truly disgusting.
March 12, 2010 at 2:35 pm
“Where are the jobs, Barry you incompetent idiot?”
when you realize all this is done on purpose and he really does not want to help people to be independent, what barry is doing will make sense to you.
a socialist can not have power unless you (the public) is desolate. people must be hungry and dependent for them to get and keep their power. if people were independent and all had jobs—we need less and less government and interference from the govt……
THE MIDDLE CLASS HAS TO DISAPPEAR IF THE SOCIALIST ARE TO HAVE AND STAY IN POWER….AND TO GET TO THAT POINT BARRY HAS TO DESTROY OUT ECONOMY…
socialism trives (like mold) in countries with the richest rich and the poorest poors….
then and only then barry will feel like he has spread the wealth–social justice—-everyone is poor and the richest rich will control….where do you think barry and m.o. will stand with….oatmeal with the public or truffles in bed?
March 12, 2010 at 6:29 pm
BO has his fabulous jobs bill coming. It will exempt employers from paying their portion of OASDI (social security) and Medicare for any employee they hire who has not been employed in the past 60 days. If that employee stays employed for a year, the employer gets $1000 credit.
Where is the funding for Social Security/Medicare going to come from for all the baby boomers? Oh that’s right, BO has a mission to kill off all the old people. Silly me.
March 13, 2010 at 4:30 pm
Absolutely.

typical socialist behavior
DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO
look at the north korea leader
and every other dictatorship/socialist countries and how they are run
(note: the north koreans call themselves “Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK)”)
socialists hide behind the “democratic” charade….they honestly believe they know better than you, and should be in charge to control you (the public)
lavish parties, expensive gifts, are all part of their ploy to buy people into their group……..!!!they all must be thrown out of our public offices!!!and out of our coffers!!!
March 12, 2010 at 5:19 pm
Good point in bringing up DPRK. Kim Jong Il is partying like there’s no tomorrow, and the purpose is to keep his people as hungry as possible. So as long as there is a crisis, there is a need for him to stay in power. We are using the same template in this country.
March 12, 2010 at 3:23 pm
I had that same feeling, only stronger, when I saw the article about Beyonce & JayZ SITTING IN the “Situation Room”! That’s not only blasphemy, but that’s NATIONAL FREAKIN’ SECURITY!
Trust me, I am a former LEO in the south, and JayZ is a CONFIRMED banger! And he’s in the Situation Room where all the intel chiefs discuss and review matters of national security?????? WTF?
March 12, 2010 at 4:04 pm
What is LEO? Thanks and I hope you are not laughing too hard that I don’t know!
March 12, 2010 at 4:12 pm
Law Enforcement Officer.
Ahahahahahaha! – just kidding ;-)
March 13, 2010 at 5:43 am
Yes, motley is right.. it’s Law Enforcement Officer – specializing in Gangs and STGs (Security Threat Groups). And Jayz’s ALL over my material. There is not ONE single rap artist in or from Atlanta that isn’t a baller, shot-caller, or slinger (dope). We have mostly Crip-related gangs in the east. Bloods typically originated on the west coast. All in all, non of these fools should be ANYWHERE near the SitRoom.
Exit question: I wonder if Van Jones came to hang with JayZ & Beyonce? Probably.
March 13, 2010 at 5:58 am
Of course, that means that Obama had to give them a special pass to get into the WH since JayZ would never pass the Secret Service background check.
I was watching Top Gear the other day and Jay Leno was saying that once Obama because president the Secret Service would tell certain people on his staff not to show up to work the next day when he was at the show.
There is another story about Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane being invited to the WH for a party with Nixon’s daughter they went to school together. Grace discusses being yanked out of line and called a security threat by the Secret Service. The host laughed at them calling her that but she had just related a story they were going to try and dose Nixon with LSD. So yes, she corrected him, that she was indeed a security threat.
And you are right, JayZ should be no where near the Situation Room. That is just wrong on so many levels it is disturbing.
Thanks for sharing the news….wow.
March 13, 2010 at 5:59 am
oops…because…
should be…’became president’
March 13, 2010 at 6:22 am
Yes, Karma, and here’s the story from Big Hollywood, accompanied by a disgusting picture of JayZ sitting in POTUS’ chair at the SitRoom table.

Can’t help but wonder if they would be smiling that large if Bush invited them to the WH. It seems like they are only patriots because Obama is there.
March 12, 2010 at 11:48 am
Does anyone have an official count of how many parties they’ve held? I tried doing a search on it and didn’t come up with anything concrete. If a number is found – how does it compare to the Bush and Clinton White Houses?
Don’t worry about them partying while unemployment is epidemic. When he signs his Health Crime Bill the entire nation will miraculously be employed again – a great reason to party!
March 12, 2010 at 1:11 pm
They have had a party or even approximately every three days since Obama took office.
March 12, 2010 at 2:03 pm
KJA, According to this article from the New York Times, there were 330 ‘events’ in the first 13 months.
Unbelievably crass and tasteless.

My brother is a master plumber, worked hard all his life. One night last week he called me crying, yes crying because he has no work. A grown man who I haven’t seen cry since our dad died twenty something years ago. Those two in the White House make me sick, they are crude and have no manners.
March 12, 2010 at 12:04 pm
You know it’s not like the work’s not out there…people just can’t afford to get anything fixed.
Tell your brother to stay hopeful. He’s in a business where maintenance can be deferred but not totally eliminated.
March 12, 2010 at 12:10 pm
He asked me if it was bad to pray for cold weather so some pipes might burst. I said yes!
March 12, 2010 at 2:09 pm
Moe, our heart goes out to your brother.
PA Caucasian is correct. Often things like plumbing upgrades, carpentry repairs and painting can be put off.
I’m doing this myself. I moved into an older house in fall of ’08 and planned to do a lot of renos. However, when the stuff hit the fan, I remodelled the kitchen because there was no choice, but everything else is still ‘on hold’.
Things WILL pick up. He’s very lucky he has such a trade!
March 12, 2010 at 1:55 pm
Moe, I really feel for your brother and for all the people out of work and hurting. A lot of people participate in bartering for various services or goods. I would think people who need a good plumber but can’t pay might be willing to get creative. I wish him all the best.
March 12, 2010 at 3:24 pm
Thanks guys!
March 13, 2010 at 6:10 am
I feel for your brother too. My dad is in construction and has been having a rough time of it also. It is scary.
We’ve only had things repaired when there was no other option. The economy slowed down so much and several people came back to the company my husband works for it was basically another slow down on top of the economy. We all want everyone to keep their houses so it wasn’t a bad thing. But rather we are all in this together.
If your brother was on this side of the country I would ask for his number for when we have probelms. Our in town plumber hasn’t been all that great.
March 12, 2010 at 11:50 am
Question:
How do Barry and Queen Thunder Thighs justify these parties at taxpayer expense?
Why should the taxpayers pay for Hollywood Night and all the other lame excuses for Michelle to eat high on the hog?
March 12, 2010 at 4:15 pm
How do they justify these parties? They don’t, that’s how. They could give a rats behind about the tax payer. Their entire lives they’ve been living on tax payer money in one form or another and they’re not going to change it now.
And anyone who has any say in Washington should be ashamed for not taking these two to task.
March 12, 2010 at 5:24 pm
It’s hard to think in their shoes because in order to do so, you have to think that you’re “owed” this entitlement – the right to sit in the WH and watch everyone serve you at their call. When they go to Asia, they feel that they can spend the nearly million dollars because it’s their right to reach into our pockets to extract the money and that we’re being a bunch of ingrates because we don’t think they’re entitled. To think like this, you have to be totally deprived of any humanity. I don’t think any of us is like that. As for the WH gang, I’m not so sure.
March 12, 2010 at 11:50 am
Yubba Dubba Doo!
Who’s going to dress up as Barney?
Sean Penn?
Will Michael Moore play Fred?
That Flintstone scenario seems appropriate for the White House.
After all, by the time they’ve driven this country into bankruptcy, we’ll all be living in the Stone Age.
March 12, 2010 at 5:25 pm
Maybe Rosie O’Donnell will play Fred! :-)
March 12, 2010 at 11:54 am
The Obamas have no clue how boorish they come across to the American people.
They are not independently wealthy, so I’m sure we’re paying for all this hoopla-la-la.
I thought he postponed his Asia trip so he can work on hcr ? But has time to par-tay?
March 12, 2010 at 12:40 pm
Maybe he used his 1.4 million dollar peace prize money.
March 12, 2010 at 2:51 pm
I saw something about his wanting healthcare passed before his daughters’ spring vacation…
March 12, 2010 at 4:17 pm
He postponed his trip because people were beginning to complain that this trip was merely an excuse for a tax-payer paid spring vacation for him and the Royal family.
Now he conveniently says he has to stay for this health care bill. My foot.
March 13, 2010 at 1:13 am
Beltway Bob (Gibbs) was trying to spin Obama’s trip to Indonesia & Australia as some sort of important business. So lame. And I read somewhere today that Michelle & the girls are going to Mexico now. So, in some small way, this is a sign that public perception still means something.
Personally, I don’t care if he spends all of his time on vacation in countries on the other side of the world. Less damage he can do here.
March 12, 2010 at 12:02 pm
I think Jimmy Carter was a poor president in many ways, but he wasn’t a damn hypocrite. He turned down the thermostats in the White House, and he sent Amy to PUBLIC SCHOOL. This would not have happened on his watch. Heck, when the economy was booming, it didn’t happen on Clinton’s watch, either!
March 12, 2010 at 12:42 pm
And don’t forget that Dr. U took away the D.C. school voucher system that allowed promising poor students go to schools like Sidwell Friends (where his daughters go). He graciously let one boy finish out his high school years, but the boy’s sister (who was equally as qualified as her brother and had been accepted for the next term) was not allowed to go.
March 12, 2010 at 5:26 pm
This is an example of a tyrant stepping on the poor soul and then grinding his heel into them…
March 12, 2010 at 2:00 pm
You are so correct on that. Jimmy didn’t ask the American public to make sacrifices that he and his family were not ready to make first. It really bothers me when people compare Obama to Carter. There’s really no comparison at all. Jimmy Carter, whether you agree with him or not, has worked tirelessly to help the poor and those he considers disenfranchised and powerless. Carter’s wife, Rosalind went on diplomatic missions for him when he was president. Unlike Michelle, Rosalind was criticized for not going for the high dollar fashion wear. Obama has worked only to satisfy his own “ego”.
BTW, I just heard on Fox News that the “House” is only 4 votes away from passing the health care reform bill. I just hope the dems holding out, continue to do so.
March 12, 2010 at 3:18 pm
That can’t be true unless they take abortion out, I hope!
March 12, 2010 at 3:25 pm
I don’t know when they are going to vote, but my congressman is holding a town hall meeting tomorrow morning at the library. According to a call I got this morning, he will be greeted by hundreds of tea partiers and others who are angry about the “reform” bill. He voted no the last time. He rode into office on Obama’s coat tails in 2008 to a Republican/Conservative/independent/libertarian pro NRA lots-of-seniors-district. If he votes “yes” he’ll lose in a landslide even if the R’s were to run a Philadelphia Eagles football player against him.
Oh wait! They are!

Is it the weekend yet??
March 12, 2010 at 3:33 pm
Reading the article, I note that they had some congressmen to the “party” which I’m sure he was lobbying to vote yes for his legacy bill. So, he will charge it to us because government business was going on. See? That’s how it works. Make sure that there is one or more of the fools that make laws down there and he can do anything he wants and stick us with the bill. Legally.
Note that he has pushed back his “vacation” for 3 days in order to do more of that lobbying, arm twisting and bribing.
And also note that Michelle and the girls are not going with him now. After the report yesterday that D congressmen were griping because they were working around the clock to meet an arbitrary deadline in accordance with the girls’ spring break, someone must have realized that “looked bad”.

And they are forcing, barrelling, Rahmming ObamaCare thru. A vote is NOW promised for next week. Next week!!! We trully have NO representation.
Tea Parties going to DC next week…praying they are bringing their torches and pitchforks!!!

PapaJoe -
Good! I live in the liberal area of Phoenix and sometimes I feel like I’m in an insane asylum. Plus, I find myself fuming when an acquaintance talks about how she’s walking away from her house – as if the thousands of dollars that will be forgiven weren’t real. My house is going down and down because of her overspending AND I’ll end up paying her bills either through inflation or taxes. I do feel sorry for folks who are losing their houses because they lost their jobs and went through their savings, but she’s just a grasshopper. Three years’ bad credit scores and she’ll be back at it. (Actually, she probably is already with the monthly payments she hasn’t paid.)
If Obama were suggesting mandatory “volunteer” service for people like her to pay back to the community, I’d cheer.
March 12, 2010 at 2:16 pm
Mary, so glad to hear that the Tea Partiers are going to DC!!!
We used to joke on Lucianne about ‘torches and pitchforks’…but it isn’t funny anymore.
‘Both sides’ are digging in and IMHO, things are going to get ugly.
This is no longer just ‘politics as usual’. The very Constitution is being shredded by the people’s EMPLOYEES and at long last, they, the people, are seeing the evil that now inhabits Washington.
People who in the past have been ‘apolitical’ are beginning to see the threat to their future and that of their children, and they are made as hell.
March 12, 2010 at 6:23 pm
Torches and pitchforks??? I just got a new 9mm; the shop was packed and I see more and more women in there and buying. The next revolution is/will be co-ed. As “W” said “let’s roll!!”

Come next week, I’m guessing that Obamacare just might pass into law. When that happens, the shit is going to hit the fan. Obama won’t have time for anymore parties.
March 12, 2010 at 2:50 pm
Oh, of course he will. He’ll probably have more. And then, to explain, the articles will start that he doesn’t feel safe going out in public any more because of the hysterical responses by the extreme rightwing fanatics…most of whom are desperately hoping and praying that nothing bad happens to him.
March 12, 2010 at 3:15 pm
I’m not so sure about that. There is going to be mass upheaval, and there won’t be many people wanting to be seen partying with him at the WH. If someone were to pay my way to DC, I’d participate. I’m very low on funds right now. I hope that there will be some groups funding trips to the capital for those like me who can’t afford to travel anymore.
March 12, 2010 at 3:57 pm
I hope you’re right…but I think the crap we see from this Precedent is not because he is tonedeaf. His positions, his expenditures and his attitudes are CHOSEN…so I guess I don’t see why he would change them just because everything goes against him. And he certainly has proven that he is capable of gathering a whole lot of people around him who think the same way. But as I said, I do really hope you’re right. I would love to see him on the evening news, cameras right on his face, closeup–looking SCARED because it has registered at long last how hated he is.
March 12, 2010 at 4:23 pm
” I’m guessing that Obamacare just might pass into law. When that happens, the shit is going to hit the fan.”
You know, I’ve read that so many times with so many things but it never happens. Besides, the shit should be hitting the fan before the law is passed, not after.

Every time the Reagans had a party they were bashed mercilessly and by the mid 80′s the economy was rolling pretty well. It was all about nancy and ANOTHER de la Renta! or her rich California pals and how it looks. They paid for their entertaining, we didn’t. Mrs Reagan had lovely dresses and jewelry and yes, designers like to give her things to wear becuase she was famous and pretty and her pictures would be in the glossy mags. It’s not something that isn’t done for the rich and photogenic all the time.

When our country had the great Depression-this is how one First Lady handled very tough times. Once upon a time our country cared about all the people-rich, middle class and poor-this ended with the Kennedy assassination.
http://www.directessays.com/viewpaper/73514.html
“Shortly after Franklin’s inauguration in March 1933 an army of unemployed set up camp in Washington and flooded it. When Eleanor asked Howe what to do he answered, ” I’m going to take a nap, and you are going out there to talk to them.” Eleanor walked into the tent city all alone to talk to them she told the of her volunteer work during World War I and promising to do whatever she could to help them. The unemployed veterans cheered as she left. Said one, in words that would become famous, ” Hoover sent the Army. Roosevelt sent his wife.”(Weinstein 760)
March 12, 2010 at 2:46 pm
…and then Roosevelt confiscated the nation’s gold and through subsequent policy declarations, used it to devalue the US dollar.
March 12, 2010 at 4:45 pm

My thought on the movie night at the WH was Spielberg being there. He’s from a very religious family. His mother owns a Kosher restaurant! All his work to document the Holocaust and he goes to the WH where this anti-Semitic lives. I told my husband it’s as bad as the muslims for not speaking up and out about the terrorists.
I will never watch another of his movies.

Always remember when you look at photos like the one accompanying this post from the Boyz: our taxes, our money, money that WE earned and never saw is what they use to pay for this stuff, week after week after week after week after week after week after week. Laughing all the time. While we cling to our jobs, our guns, our Bibles and what’s left of our paychecks. It’s our money they are using to pay for this. If Patrick Henry thought taxation without representation was bad, he should see it with representation. Pick an item in that photo–figure out which one you paid for, because you did. That’s what you worked for last quarter or last year….there it is. Ain’t it grand?

Does it ever seem to anyone else that they (Mo and Barry) are trying very hard to get half of America very angry? Sometimes it seems to me that they are trying to get us so mad that a revolution will start-so they can declare martial law and take even more control.

It might seem that he’d like to “respond” to that kind of “crisis” but we will never give him the satisfaction. On the other hand, he won’t have to wait long for the real revolution, which will occur on November 2 of this year. A mere 33 weeks away from this coming Tuesday. 231 days. He will be stunned at the drubbing he takes in the election. The media will be stunned. And depressed. I’m sure they’ve already written their editorials about our electoral temper tantrum. Exit polls will reveal that it’s all about his socialist programs and his excessive life style as the foil. We will stand in line to vote. A few of my friends and I plan to dip our fingers into purple glitter and hold them up outside the polling place. Then we will celebrate after with a champagne brunch.
Hang in there. Count the days, and know when you get there, you will feel safe again. For awhile anyway.

I LOVE THE PURPLE GLITTER IDEA!!! THAT should go viral!!!
March 12, 2010 at 4:08 pm
Such imagination should NOT go unrewarded!! Purple glitter indeed.
I shall do the same!
March 12, 2010 at 4:36 pm
Yea! Emma and Sandra C,
I shall experience emense joy as we do it knowing other purple glitter girls [and perhaps some guys?] will be sharing the exact same experience with me.

It’s true, we gotta keep a cool head and not rise to the bait.

Some weeks back, The Boyz asked us to think about hating Obama and his ilk. They suggested that professing Christians couldn’t hate these folks because it would violate the tenants of the faith. I know they are right . . . BUT.
BUT I am having a hard time living up to my faith when it comes to Utopia, Pelosi, Reid, and others of their ilk. They are ruining America. How can I love them? They are going against the will of the people. How can I love them? They are using underhanded ways (Slaughter rules!) to get through a bill that no one wants.
I loathe these people. I am being honest when I say I don’t think I can do anything to keep them from passing health care rationing. I don’t want to be a negative nelly. I am just being honest.
Meanwhile . . . these pieces of utter filth are partying . . . while so many go hungry, homeless, and jobless. All I can wish for Obama is this: Go to hell.

Don’t feel guilty about the anger and frustration you are experiencing. We are all feeling the same. Remember what He said: “Hate the sin; Love the sinner.” …Which certainly didn’t mean not to be angry with the sinner for the sin. He Himself turned over the Temple merchants’ tables and scattered their wares in anger.
As far as not being able to do anything to stop them from passing health care… Have you called your representative and Senators to express your anger? Try it. It really does wonders for the “Well, I DID something” feelings.
Go here to get the district numbers or DC number for your senators and rep. http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml

And if you want to add some interest to that visual picture of Christ in the temple, scattering things this way and that, check into some kind of encyclopedia that will provide some stats on the probable weight and size of those “moneychangers’ tables” He was throwing around. They were NOT card table style!
I always visualize His disciples sort of standing back and watching and thinking, “Whoa! Is this cool or what! And we’re with Him!”

concentrate on hating their policies, rather than the person.
There is nothing wrong with criticizing these people for the things that they are doing. Remember Jesus called the Sanhedrin a brood of vipers.
You have a right to be angry over what is being done. Just do not turn that into outright hatred.
You can work against any of these people, just do not use hatred. Work against their policies, help to defeat them, just do not give into hatred.
Besides it is not hatred to be against what they are doing. It is not hatred to be angry either.
I might be in another country but we also have a shallow narcissistic leader by the name of KRUDD – Kevin Rudd.
March 12, 2010 at 4:25 pm
Popcorn shrimp, chicken nuggets and honeydew melon, oh my! (Honeydew? I dare not say watermelon, that’s why). All I wanna know is who’s gonna clean up the mess when these retrogrades are finished chunking it up.

This is so pitiful: I’m clipping coupons for the first time in my life and this bunch spends money that we don’t have, and will never be able to pay back. They know they only have one term, but lets party every day because the following term, they’ll be tossed out – provided that this country will last another year. Thanks for bring this issue forward!
March 12, 2010 at 6:40 pm
when they are removed from the White House for fraud, they should be sent a bill and asked to pay back the millions spent on this entertainment.
March 12, 2010 at 5:36 pm
It’s crass, it’s shameful, it’s hypocritical–but it’s also the only way this administration is putting tax dollars back into the private sector economy.
March 12, 2010 at 6:40 pm
TROLL ALERT
March 12, 2010 at 6:51 pm
Thanx Maggie, beat me to it!
March 12, 2010 at 7:03 pm
Really? I thought that was sarcasm to infinity…
March 12, 2010 at 10:56 pm
It is an obvious troll. It is the second part of the sentence: “the only way this administration is putting tax dollars into the private sector economy”… As if!!!
March 13, 2010 at 12:01 am
Thanks, JerseyGram–How anyone could think that I was a troll trying to praise the administration is beyond me.
For those who need a translation–if I say that the Administration only gives back to the private sector when the Obamas want to indulge themselves, I’M NOT COMPLIMENTING THEM.

[...] The Hillbuzz boys are not alone in wondering why it is always party time as the Party dies. [...]
March 12, 2010 at 6:37 pm
Is that why Obama’s schedule rarely begins before 9:30 a.m.?
March 12, 2010 at 6:54 pm
Of course, more time to Par..tee! later
March 12, 2010 at 7:06 pm
Yeah, say what we will about GWB, he was in the office at 6 AM reading the overnight Threat Matrix and he expected everyone else to be there too.
On the other hand, the media hated him because he was asleep by 9:30 and never threw those beer and bull parties they like so much. They had to sit in a bar and pay for their own drinks. Ha! It’s probably one of the main reasons they treated him so badly.
March 12, 2010 at 11:45 pm
Sorry to be ignorant, but how do you know his schedule? I’ve been wondering about his daily agenda and itinerary; is it available?
March 13, 2010 at 12:12 am
Well, I have to thank you for making me think about the daily agenda. I went for a quick search and not only found Obama’s, but then went back and found Bush’s as well. Very interesting.
I wish I could hang out with my daughter and eat breakfast with her every day. Start work at 9:30am? Can’t even fathom it.
March 12, 2010 at 11:41 pm
Measnwhile, a few monthws ago the Obama’s had to cut back on the Chanukah celebration for budget reasons.
