President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama wave to the crowd from the Truman Balcony of the White House during the annual Easter Egg Roll, April 25
Good night, Chipsticks and everyone! Tough day at work, and now I can look forward to an evening enjoying all the videos from today’s events. Thanks for sharing everyone – pleasant dreams…
What a beautiful song. I love the reminders of what happened in a year. I love that picture of the President and “lil” Barack and ending with the FLOTUS and the POTUS. We are so fortunate to have them in our lives. Thanks for all the work you do for all of us. Thank you!!!
Charmed, and after you’ve voted do your best to get someone else to vote for President Obama. And then they can get someone else. We want, no we need this President to be re-elected.
Chipsticks, thanks for always making everyday a brighter day. Rest well all, we are in good hands, and we will see to it that he is able to finish what he has started.
Thanks one and all for an emotional day! I notice we all were glad to ‘see’ Proud of Obama, and glad also to see the camaraderie among the people (young and old) at the White House. The spirit of this blog is very welcoming and like everyone else I want to thank Chipsticks again for an ongoing work of art! “Thanks, ‘Girl'”!
Have a good rest, Everyone, and hopefully we’ll all see each other on the morrow. Good Night! Sleep tight!
The video reminds us that it has been a wild ride for the past 2 and 1/2 years. Here’s to 5 and 1/2 more headed by this one-in-a-life-time leader. Good night everyone. God Bless.
Please rest well Chipsticks, and thank you for all the wonderful effort you bring to advancing the promise of America, for everyone.
Here’s something posted at OFA earlier today:
As an Obama Democrat, thank you for the overview, Mr Messina.
I do think we have to be very clear about the message – and about those who are constantly claiming to be ‘progressive’ and ‘democrats,’ but whose actions affirm otherwise.
I am encouraged that Democrats (wisely not distracted by folk like Mr Paul Krugman) do get it.
“… lawmakers in the [Democratic] party are more than happy, messaging-wise, to set themselves up as champions of programs like Medicare and Medicaid while casting Republicans as defenders of millionaires and billionaires.”
So, we have an easy metric by which to determine whether anyone claiming to be a progressive, a liberal, on the left are really supporting the Democratic Party or – as we know for several – are merely hiding their true libertarian/Republican affiliation behind the term ‘progressive.’
If these ‘progressives’ do not focus on supporting the President and all Democratic candidates who have already clearly delineated their support for Medicare and Medicaid and their intention to have the rich pay their fair share, as opposed to the Republicans, then we know them for what they are – hypocrites – and move on.
More importantly, we need for the Obama campaign to crystallize a message that leverages the stunningly cruel Ryan/Republican legislation passed by the House. They explicitly have four objectives: more tax cuts for the wealthy, destroy Medicare and Medicaid, crush the recovery (i.e., fewer jobs in the next 16 months), and have the majority of Americans pay for and suffer the consequences.

Thank you Chipsticks and good night. That is a moving song with appropriate photos. We’ve come a long way, but much more to be done.
Beautiful Song, I love them…I will be voting EARLY in #2012 for this man.
