The Obama Diary 
Good Morning!!
Congrats on First on Sunday!
Aww, so close. 🙂 Morning everyone
GM folks. GM Dudette
‘Morning amk!
Good Morning Dudette and congrats on 1st!
Thank you! 🙂
Good morning Chips, TOD. Congrats Dudette
Thanks! 🙂
I recently watched an episode of the West Wing where medicare was called “the third rail” which I got reminded of when i saw that cartoon. Risking to sound stupid, but what does that mean exactly?
Here’s something even better than the TV show (which is hard to beat)…
GM DUDETTE
This is Simplyyyyyyyyyyy Amazinggggggg….
we are going to win this battle…
BECAUSE WE MUST!!
FORWARDDDDDDDDDDDDD>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Bartlet 2016!! 😀
In subways, there is a third rail which is electrified to give supply to the train motor. You touch, you fry.
Thanks for the info amk!
Good morning oh wise one who knows all! Have a good rest later!
I read a few days back Rachel Maddow will be hosting one. Not sure if it is true.
Good show for a wise one, huh ? 🙂
That Maddow tweet in this diary was asking people to sign up to have her be a debate leader….did you rea something else? I’ve watched her show for years, she was on the radio here in Chicago before show, I could only imagine if she were picked.
I don’t think the GOP campaign would ever agree to Rachel as a moderator just as The Dem campaign would never agree to Hannity moderating.
Oh, of course they wouldn’t. So, the parties temselves come to agreement. Do we know who they picked for all 3 debates? Thanks Grandmama.
Aah, thanks amk 🙂
Niathiel, it means mess with it and you’re dead politically. Used to be the third rail on a railroad track was electrified. If you touched it, you fried.
MORNING everybody. Friday nite I was nervous. Saturday I was cautious. Sunday I am ecstatic MR naming Paul Ryan as his VP has the MSM all converging on the meme – it was a BIG BAD DEAL!
Good Morning all. Have a great Obama Day. Remember to work to GOTV. I can’t count on this country to keep this great President in office. Listened to CSPAN callers this morning and I am further convinced that we are a very uniformed electorate. I am hoping for the best!
Peace and Love,
Sue
I am pretty sure that O team will paint voucher boy more toxic to mittbot than mittbot himself. The thugs team will get a ceiling of 45 to 46% votes. Count on it.
Good Morning Ms. Chips and TOD.
Remember that C-SPAN screens its callers. There is a Repub & a Dem line. What type of people call into TV stations? Do you think the majority of people call in or even listen to C-SPAN? No, don’t worry. If you want to be concerned about something I’d suggest voter suppression – that’s at the top of my list.
FIRED UP..!!
READY TO GO..!!!
Morning everyone.. Just got an e-mail from Markos on daily kos saying that we need to keep up the fight… That we are winning this.
I thought he was “disappointed” with Obama?
Maybe he meant to keep up the fight to defeat PBO? That seems to have been his goal the last three years.
No, he’s been good from the posts I’ve read from others linking to his site.
Chips, are you going to give us any of your famous editorials anytime soon? My suggestion is the Paul Ryan devotion to Ayn Rand and her admiration of a baby killer William Hickman..
That’s funny, Chips. LOL. Although, you got a point, sadly.
Hahahaha….ain’t that the truth.
FOLLOW THE MONEY.
‘Markos…saying..we need to KEEP UP the fight’ to me just means emoprogs of his genre are starting to shift gears, laying their groundwork to take credit. If I remember correctly, PBO’s first win was due to their efforts on his behalf…wIthout them he couldn’t have won. In the words of I don’t remember which TOBobot ‘Oh vey!’ 🙄
They need to take credit for people not being informed about Obamacare, and the fact that the GOP won in 2010. They can take most of the credit for that.
Yessss!!!
On another note, I really enjoyed the Men,s Marathon. Uganda took the gold, Kenya the silver and bronze. WE got fourth. Pretty Good in my book.
Amen to that. I watched the last bit too.
It’s tough for any athlete to end up just out of the medals after such tremendously hardword, but 4th in the Olympics marathon is freaking awesome!! Way to go Meb! USA — USA — USA!!!
hard work
So true Dudette. I was really impressed with Meb’s 4th place. For a 37 years old man that was quite an accomplishment.

I want to see his tax returns.
Romney Campaign Examined Tax Returns Of Potential Veeps
“Several” years required, Myers says. Romney has released just two years of returns
http://www.buzzfeed.com/zekejmiller/romney-campaign-examined-tax-returns-of-potential
Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign requested “several” years of tax returns from potential vice presidential picks, senior adviser Beth Myers, who ran the search, told reporters Saturday.
Myers said vetting documents were stored in safes in a secure room at campaign headquarters for review by attorneys.
Asked what was inside the safes, Myers replied “tax documents, everything we used.”
And how many years? “Several” she said, declining to provide a more specific number.
Romney has not released 2 years of tax return. He release some part of 2010 and promised to release 2011-which he requested extension on. so far, we have only seen half a year of tax return from Romney
Yup. And we know that the 2011 return will not be representative – it will be an extremely cleaned-up version designed to take up the news cycle close to the election and to distract voters. We don’t need to see that one, we want the returns from 1999-2009.
Myth, ever the hypocrite.
Remember in ’08 Barack Obama never ran an ad “against” Sarah Palin. But for 2012 they gonna wrap the PaulRyanBudget around the neck of both of them. I can’t wait to watch!!
True, but that wasn’t just out of some sense of courtesy. Palin was snatched out of relative obscurity and thrust upon the national stage with no national policy record to speak of (thank a lot, Senator McCain), while Paul Ryan has a record of votes and policy positions an arm long for the Obama Team to crush into oblivion (thank you Mr. Romney).
Also the 08 team had to be very careful about going after a woman after Hillary was defeated and also racists would have leaped on the optics of an African American presidential candidate going after a so-called attractive white women. Biden had to walk on eggshells around her at the debate, even though he was probably itching to call her a ninny. The 08 team handled it perfectly and let Miss Sarah hang herself. This time, all bets off in attacking the Twit and Twerp team. These are two very repulsive, arrogant, privileged white guys and they’re going to get hit in ways they never dream.
Yup. This time no holds barred punching.
But, I still fully expect lots of whining from the Romney team that the Obama campaign is being mean to them.

Andy has been hitting it out of the park with his tweets about Romney-Ryan.
Good morning All,
Please remember the President’s campaign is fueled by money. So please dig deep and as often as possible.. I am close to the $5,000 mark. I have had to dip into my savings but every dime and every penny is worth my security, my mental well-being, my pride in America, and my love of this President and Vice-President.
Paul Ryan cannot escape his Ayn Rand loyalty. Lawrence O’Donnell has the audio tape and he knows people who were at the event when Ryan was espousing his love for Ayn Rand the atheist and pen-pal to a child killer..
Which reminds me. Please keep donna dem’s streak going today. All it takes is $3.
https://donate.barackobama.com/page/outreach/view/2012/donnanoshock3
Thanks for the reminder, amk. Dropped something in the pot.
Thank you jackie for keeping her streak going.
Thank you, Jackie. Yesterday was her birthday! We’ll have to give her belated greetings when she returns.
William Hickman the child killer who Ayn Rand admired. This is the psyche of Paul Ryan which is dangerous and disgusting.
Do you remember how the Palin and the right wing talked about who Obama pal around with. Okay, fair is fair, Ayn Rand’s name will come up. When the right wing were questioning if President Obama was a christian, remember Franklin Graham, remember the media asking Boehner and others and all they said, he say he is. Okay a hero of their VP candidate was a atheist. Let’s see them answer that.
Thanks. I couldnt remember this monster’s name. Thom Hartman has done scathing reports on this.
Men’s Basketball Gold Medal Game starts at 10:00 Eastern. 🙂
Definitely!
Spain is the world’s 2nd best team. They will not roll over.
No they won’t. But I prefer when the US is challenged because they play better particularly in the second half. it will be an exciting game to say the least.
You betcha. Also.Too. I’ll be watching it (if I don’t drop off)
Don’t say “gunnite” yet! I promise, David Gregory won’t bite.
LOL.
shrub & darth are in a bar watching the television when the news comes on. It showed a guy on a bridge who was about to jump, obviously suicidal. “I’ll bet you $10 he’ll jump,” says darth.
“Bet you $10 he won’t,” replies shrub. Then, the guy on the television closed his eyes and threw himself off the bridge. shrub hands over the bet to darth.
“I can’t take your money,” says darth. “I cheated on you (any surprises there ?) . The same story was on the five o’clock news.”
“No, no. Take it,” says shrub. “I saw the five o’clock news too. I just didn’t think the guy was dumb enough to jump again!”
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Question, have they decided who hosts all the presidential debates already? I see your tweet below (Amanpour) and who decides this? Oh wise one….
Priceless!
A preacher was completing a temperance sermon: with great expression he said, “If I had all the beer in the world, I’d take it and throw it into the river.”
With even greater emphasis, he said, “And if I had all the wine in the world, I’d take it and throw it into the river.”
And then, finally, he said, “And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I’d take it and throw it into the river.”
There was total silence in the room. Then one man got up and said he was leaving. The preacher asked him why.
The man said “I have this sudden urge to bathe in the river”.
Fat chance, amk. She’s going to soft ball Rmoney and hit the president hard.
I know. I was being snarky. 🙂
Amanpour sold her journalistic soul when she went to abc. I’ve lost all respect for her.
Meet The Republicans is now on and Gregory is going to pay special “love” tribute to Paul Ryan.
Meet the Republicans did the same thing with Mitt RomneyHood, but it didn’t help RomneyHood. By the time the Obama campaign finish with him he will wish he had stayed in Congress.
Good morning early birds. Good job on first Dudette.
The third rail of railroad track is electrified and to be avoided.
Thank Sonjia!
Fact check on claims at the Romney/Ryan debut
http://globegazette.com/news/national/fact-check-questionable-claims-in-veep-debut/article_ffb31793-cd95-5961-b63e-6857aad59187.html
When all else fails, pull out Lovesick Peter Alexander for analysis. Game Changer my ass. What utter nonsense.
HAHAHAHAHA! So now the MSM’s biggest love-fest tribute to Ryan pick: “How the Romney team outwitted the 24-hr news cycle” in picking Ryan as VP.
I mean …. that’s the most critical issue that the media can find to focus on at this time? How Ryan went in through his front door, but escaped through his back door to the airport? The NY Times devoted a whole column to this, and NBC opened their “Meet The Republicans” with a segment on this “remarkable feat” pulled off by the Romney team. HAHAHAHAHA!
Interesting, others have noticed the same thing and are calling BS on it as well!! The MSM and GOP are so transparent in their coordination of talking points and narratives. It’s almost laughable if it weren’t so disturbing at the same time.
Pitiful. What happened to the rule that the news media itself was not supposed to be “the story”? Ugh!
Great article here about how the media is falling all over itself to tell a story that was obviously calculated and planted by Romney’s team. Clown media, bro.
http://thedailybanter.com/2012/08/this-is-your-press-corps-being-ridiculous-romney-ryan-edition/
This is the Big Story of the day—-all newscasts and every newspaper and news site is featuring this Big Intrigue—–about consulting with Cheney—oy!— and about Ryan going thru the woods behind his house and hopping on this plane in disguise (sunglasses and hat)– and — staying at the Fairfield and eating Applebees takeout—urp!——-etc. etc.—-the news media is just full of awe and admiration of this most (un)remarkable feat, as if it was significant to the future well-being of our country.
That’s is exactly what they’re trying to imply. That the Romney camp is so disciplined and effective at keeping things on a close lid, that they will be great for running this country.
I guess they’re trying to put this on the level of the massive Bin Laden operation that was going down while PBO was laughing and roasting Donald Trump?
This media is a real nasty piece of work.
We all know that he HAD to pick a veep….what’s so f ‘ ing secretive about that? There are TELEPHONES and INTERNET and SKYPE and a host of new technology in which Ryan did not need to go through all that nonesense…..really? Ryan snuck around like he was getting out of his parents house for a “hot” date or party like some teenager……ARE THESE GROWN-UPS?
Actually, I do not think it much of a feat for Romney to have outsmarted the journalists. He is a master of secrecy and keeping things hidden like taxes and bank accounts. Why would it be difficult to fool the reporters? He keeps them off topic and gets them to report his lies about PBO all the time. Hiding his VP pick? Piece of cake.
Mitt Romney, the presumptive Republican nominee, claims his far deeper tax cuts would have a price tag of exactly zero dollars. He has no intention of submitting his tax plan to the committee or anywhere else that might conduct a serious analysis, since he seems intent on running a campaign far more opaque than any candidate has in years.
He has made his economic plan the fundamental basis of his candidacy, and yet with the Republican convention just two weeks away, we know next to nothing of the plan’s details. The extreme cuts proposed by his new running mate, Paul Ryan, are far more hard-edged, making Mr. Romney’s mathematically impossible promises look vague and shopworn by comparison.
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/12/opinion/sunday/romneys-tax-plan-defies-the-rules-of-math.html?_r=1&smid=tw-share
“vague and shopworn” ~ kinda describes the entire GOP and all their incredible foolishness, IMHO.
Robme has and will not write down his economic plan because it IS the Ryan Budget, that’s why he picked that scum bag. Paul Ryan = Dick Cheny.
Hey Chips,
Your Favorite is on tv, Rinse Priebus.
Somebody should RINSE him, right down the drain. Yuck! Hate Him.
“Somebody should RINSE him, right down the drain.”
+ 1,000,000,000 😆
LMAO! I think Cenk Uygur is Chips’ favorite. Priebus comes a close second. 🙂 🙂
😆 Hopefruit, NO ONE comes close to Uygur!!!!
True. LOL!
I’m pleased to say I have the TV muted while the Rethugs are on.. just waiting for Rachel.
Now he’s yucking it up with that cretin, Scott Walker! Ugh!
Now you tell us how you reeeeally feel about him.
But but but, he is a fiscal conservative Ayn Rand philosopher wine Extraordinaire and a PX 360 workout King. Just Love Him. He lives me, he loves me not, he loves me, he lives me not. Boooooo! I ran out of Flower.
That’s a great site, amk:)

Axe is on Meet The Press now! Yay!
Wow, I just noticed the marked difference in David Gregory’s demeanor and facial expression when he’s talking to David Axelrod vs. when he was all giggly with Scott Walker. Plus he’s interrupting. I could slap that punk!
I just got the very end but boy did Axe give it to David Gregory. He basically said that Mitt Romney approved ads that are outright lies about PBO and welfare and maybe once he tells his team to stop running lies then he will have some standing to lecture somebody else. He totally shut David Gregory down on that point.
Yep he went after him hard. No noodling questions for David Axelrod. smh
You can always expect David Gregory to be joined at the tonsils with the Republicans and then hammer the Democrats for being mean the his people.
Actually, I’ve been noticing the same thing with most of the press since PBO has been President. The press is hostile and accusatory towards PBO surrogates, whether it’s Axelrod, Plouffe, Gibbs, Jarrett (or others), and giggly, and warm with the GOP surrogates. Unfortunately that is true with even some of the MSNBC pundits like Tweety, Rachel, Ed, etc.
I think Rev Al, Lawrence and Martin are probably among the few who tend to be consistently more abrasive (as they should be) with GOP guests relative to DEM guests.
Is there anyway to pressure NBC to get Gregory out ? His bias are becoming more and more obvious.
A dream: a video with clips highlighting how Gregory treats republicans and democrats differently. A campaign on youtube to discredit the guy as a journalist. Come to think of it, people like Candy Crowley, John King of CNN should be denounced as well.
The MSM is losing some power to influence things, but let’s be real they STILL have power to build narratives. Watch them in the next weeks working to establish the credibility of Paul Ryan as a “moderate” and “reasonable” guy.
With Michelle fundraising at Gwen Stefani Home Today, and the Presidents Five fundraisers,e thinks it might be a ten million dollar Day. Good birthday for POTUS.
Yep, yep! 🙂
Woot! Axe just kicked Romney in the nuts!!! 😀
I was out of my seat with both fists in the air. That was freaking awesome. Don’t you just love David Gregory wringing his hands about the Priorities USA ad as if every ad that Romney has run has been above board. The selective outrage just drives me crazy. And the biggest story of this campaign is Romney’s constant lying which the media just overlooks.
I’m still breathless with excitement.
Oh boy. Now I want to see it.
Paging chips.
Can’t wait for the video to come out! It was GLORIOUS!
Dudette, how can you be reveling so in Mitt’s pain!! 😯 I’m told it REALLY hurts to be kicked ‘in the nuts’ (though I’m not sure that’s the case for robots). 😀 GO Axelrod!!
LOL! I’m an evil bitch. What can I say?
Waiting for the video to show up here amk: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032608/
Thx chips. What is the normal time lag ?
I think maybe it has to air in both time zones first?
Makes sense. Thx meta.
SWEET.
Axelrod was terrific. Slammed them all.
This was the most forceful I had seen Him.
Oh yes, he basically shut Gregory up about the ad.
hey HF..GM
.i am on the East coast….i do not see any programing for MTP …the OLYMPICS has all the programming today….what network are you watching the program….
NBC – from 9:30 – 10:00AM ET. It was just a half-hr segment.
ohhhhh missed it,,,,thanks
wyden was stoopid to have had any truck with the thugs in any manner.
Wyden should be impeached for that!
HaHaHaHa! The new Politico poll, which will be released on assholes Show, has Robney down only 1 point.
That is convenient.
This whole shilling thing, is so obvious.
They already flashed it.
I knew it was coming. So expect anything from this so call media, and these polls. Is that GOPolitico?
This is the reason why I don’t watch MTP and shows like that.
You have got to watch MTP. The Facial expressions when Rachel speaks are Just funny. LOL!
A great comment that we can use:
As I tell anyone who will listen, “do you want YOUR retirement to be a constant battle with a Chinese menu of private options for where your pension money will be invested for the next year, and which private, expensive plan you will choose for your medical care next year?” Do you want to spend your retirement managing your 800 bucks a month you get from what used to be Social Security and leave it up to the mercy of the market?.Anyone who thinks about this for a minute and still says it sounds like fun is either Bernie Madoff or a total nincompoop.
You know when you are losing, ask Rich Lowery his man is pathetic!!!! He knows after the pick of Paul Ryan; President Obama is going to win this election pretty comfortably. Lowery is soooooo scared and it is showing.
Rich Lowry looks absolutely terrified. He huffing and puffing and not making a lot of sense. Rachel Maddow is really making him look stupid and uninformed. There is not enough lipstick to put on the Romney/Ryan platform. Sorry Rich.
NBC bows to pressure, will live-stream Olympics closing ceremony
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/08/11/nbc-bows-to-pressure-will-live-stream-olympics-closing-ceremony/
Olympic broadcaster NBC has bowed to pressure and agreed to stream the Games’ closing ceremony live. In a change of plan, the network will air London’s farewell to the quadrennial event in real time on its website.
It comes two weeks after company bosses came in for a torrent of online abuse for refusing to show the opening ceremony as it happened. Instead NBC opted for a tape-delayed program later that evening, allowing for greater advertising revenue.
Sunday’s closing ceremony – which is expected to include performances from the Spice Girls, The Who and Madness, amongst others – will not be available live to TV viewers. As with the opening, the televised show will be kept for the more lucrative prime-time slot.. [more in the article]
That was fun. Rachel had one Republican so flustered that he would not let her answer, like a Child, he was insistent. It looked a 3or4 year old Childrens argument between Brother and Sister!
He’s confused. He thinks Rachel is running the Obama campaign. No, hun, that’s what Fox News does for Romney.
I guess Fareed is off CNN too. Candy Criwley gets 2 hours of GOP talking points.
What he did was very stupid and avoidable but holy cow he still has more credibility that Candy Crowley.
Yes Jovie, for a month i think.
Good googly-moogly Spain’s big man is REALLY Big! He make LeBron look short! Yikes!

US-Spain BB – 41-42 in 2nd Q. Good match so far.
This makes sense to anyone?
None. Not the McCain part, not the “last minute” part, not the USS Wisconsin part. ZERO.
That’s what I thought. A real reporter should be asking some follow up.
No
Maybe McCain really is Harry Reid’s source? This is very curious.
Remember when McCain cancelled last minute on David Letterman? He paid dearly for it for weeks. Hee hee

http://www.thenational.ae/news/world/middle-east/us-and-turkey-plan-syria-intervention
STANBUL // The United States and Turkey said yesterday they are working on plans for possible intervention in Syria should Bashar Al Assad’s regime use chemical weapons.
“We have been closely coordinating over the course of this conflict,” Hillary Clinton, the US secretary of state, told reporters in Istanbul after talks with her Turkish foreign minister Ahmet Davutoglu. “But now we need to get into the real details of such operational planning and it needs to be across both of our governments.”
She said the US and Turkey had decided to set up a working group of representatives from the two foreign ministries as well as from the intelligence services and the military of both countries. Responding to a question, Ms Clinton confirmed that the establishment of safe havens for refugees and a no-fly-zone for government aircraft inside Syria were being looked at.
We saw the pictures of President Obama talking to the Turkish President – holding that big stick.
