The Obama Diary 
Hello
Nerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrdy!
Well look at you, our other TOD Champion!!!! Thanks again for the exceptional support you gave to Chips during her much deserved vacation. Hope you have a fun vacation planned for sometime soon!!
Thanks, Bob! 🙂
congrats NW.
and agreed. The presidency is not an entitlement, it is earned.
Way to go, Nerdy Wonka! You deserve endless thanks from us for keeping the ship afloat!
Congrats on 1st! I knew you could do it! 🙂
Albeit free, it’s the kindest advice anyone can give her, now ….
She is no match once Joe (and all of us) get rolling toward victory on 8 Nov 2016.
Good one!
I could not have said it any better Bobr.
TY Don and Jackie 🙂
Amen. And may I add, please don’t ask us to pay back all the money you wasted, like we did in 2008, when the writing was on the wall, and then Senator/Nominee Barack Obama appealed to us to do. (Remember that, guys?)
I do and I didn’t send one dime because Hillary and Bill are rich folks who just couldn’t accept their defeat in the primary.
Amen x 100000000!
A librarian’s life.
Team Clinton is out and about and they are going schorched earth.
Brings tears of JOY to my face, Don. They’re running from the law and Joe …. couldn’t get better than that, unless the day we elect @VP to the 45th Presidency, Ms Clinton is being sentenced for transmitting and sequestering classified information via her private email system.
Seriously losing it.
If I see Ed Rendell and Howard Dean one more time on the teevee touting HRC, I’ll scream.
😀 😀 😀 😀
No wonder Bill was motor mouthing at PBO during their golf match …. PBO was probably gentlemanly enough to inform Bill, f2f, that Joe is his guy 🙂
Wonder if this is the same Bill Clinton of SC ’08 yore? Eff him and the horse he rode in on.
bbl ….
She deleted it 😉
🙂
What. A. Day.
Yes yes yes.
Meta, sharing this on my FB…
Please do!
meta, I Love It!!!! 🙂
Let’s Roll Joe
LIVE now:

Honestly, we have the absolute worse media in the world!!!
Forgive Ali, she has been hanging around that racists birther Donald Trump too much.
I love my VP. I love Joe. If he decides to run, I’ll back him with all I have. Exactly as I did for President Obama. I want a Democrat to succeed POTUS and ensure forward progress. Anyone of the clowns from the GOP car will dismantle all s/he can, eliminate whatever, give more tax breaks to their patrons while making sure that the average American is left to fend alone.
Energy? Drill, baby, drill. Faster and all over!
Climate change? in your dream.
Education? We don’t need to be educated anyway, so why college affordability and financial aid?
Obamacare? Pleaaaaaaase.
For this reason, I will stand by the Democratic nominee as I know for sure POTUS will do. May she or he win. That’s all that matters.
I will not laugh nor make fun of either one of the Democratic candidates, be it Sanders or Hillary. MAY THE ONE THAT CAN WIN A GENERAL ELECTION win. Anyone of them is better than a Walker, Rubio, Christie, Kasich, or Bush.
hahahahahaha
😀 😀 😀 😀
Chips!!!!! 😀 😀
OMG. Too. Too. Wonderful4 wurdzzzzzzzzz….
Finally getting my techsh*t together, listening to PBO on laptop, checking in here on iPhone: man oh man, I knew PBO would be on fiyah! (He looks great!) but in my heart I despair no one will really listen. And bigoil, king coal and frackers will just pretend we are not well immersed in The Sixth Extinction – our own. 2050 may be way too late, I fear for our young people, what do that have to face to exist to old age?
*they
Love this, Nerdy!
NW with the Gold ⭐ Congrats!
GE TOD.
Here’s a full Video on Josh’s presser today.
Poor family values, white-on-white crime, running rampant in OK…..
jojothecat – I feel terrible as I read your comment and immediately laughed.
The President is telling the truth
IT’S SO GOOD TO SEE HIM…HE’S GOING TO A FUNDRAISER TONITE IN HENDERSON WHERE MY BROTHER LIVES…I’LL BE THERE IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS…WISH I WAS THERE FOR THIS…:)
EVERY TIME I SEE THE ENERGIZER I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT THIS COUNTRY WAS SO BLESSED TO HAVE HIM…AND BECAUSE OF OUR BEHAVIOR…WE DO NOT DESERVE HIS INTEGRITY AND GRACE…YOU ARE LOVED PBO! I HAVE SPENT SO MANY OF MY DAYS IN ANGER LATELY….VERY FED UP WITH THE LACK OF CIVILITY AND HUMANITY IN THIS COUNTRY!
Meanwhile in Twilight Zone…
I have asked that same question, these Trump supporters are so fill with racists rage that they will not ask how is Trump going to do all these things. How is Trump going to make Mexico pay for a fence? How is Trump going to fine and remove 11 million people? What is it going to cost?
He’s going to ask them nicely and then offer them a plane ride on AF1 or now Trump1….then have Mexico pay for the cost of the wall and deportation. I read that they plan to take all the undocumented folks wages to pay for the relocation….
wasn’t jorge bellyaching about how Obama had let down the latinos?
I don’t want to make light of the Holocaust by comparison with this Trump fool’s comments nor give any more credence to such an awful person, so I won’t answer this tweet with “Ask Hitler.”
I got you. As stated in a few posts way back when, I start to get the profiles of those who cling to, believe, agree with, and cheer The Donald. They must be what in French is called les misérables. One has to have a serious deficit of intelligence, discernment, empathy, decency, common sense, but a great deal of anger or hatred to believe that one’s answer can be found in this buffoon with an ingrained hair plaque.
My world!
Agree.With.Every.Word.
#Forward
🙂
Holla!
we are ready for Joe Biden. He has my vote on lock.
What a great speech. PBO and his admin have done so much to move this country forward, it’s absolutely stunning. He’s taken every challenge and met it head on and he’s WON.
Yes it was a great speech.
Yeah Baby!!!
paging donna, meta, LL….
ready with my money? #kenyanridenwithbiden.
Do you ever forget? Also, too, it hasn’t been wrapped (and tied with a bow) yet!
Hi, Amk – long time noh see!
WOT?
Don’t mind him, Meta – he makes stuff up; stuff that involves money owed to him.
One that I will gladly pay if he does indeed endorse before the nomination 😉
wwwhhhaaattt? He did indeed. So shall you.
No he didn’t.,He simply gave him his blessing to run. He did not endorse him.
#weasellywords. You all claimed that PBO would keep silent and won’t openly
endorseadvocate for Uncle Joe. Well …. Sounds like he just did.I think you forget that when HRC declared her candidacy he said nice things about her as well. Now, you may prove to be right and he may actually endorse VP Joe but he hasn’t yet. He spoke to VP Joe’s qualities and said he wouldn’t rule out endorsing but you’ll have to wait a bit longer (like maybe once he actually declares) before you get that actual endorsement. 😉
start ritin’ that check, will ya? #itjusthappened
along with the keys to his strategy. Go VPOTUS. Well earned. Joe is LOYAL.
Starting to get a real sense of how bad it is going to be when PBO’s term is over. I love Joe, but PBO is THE president of my lifetime. I have visions of myself digging out his speeches on YouTube to get my PBO fix:-)
It will be truly dreadful and difficult. POTUS and FLOTUS have touched all of us in a deep way. I think we’re going to have to form a therapy group.
YES! But not to cure us of anything, just to get us through withdrawal and feed our habits with stories, etc:-)
Yes!
Oh Foxfire, you are so right. Within a minute of PBO starting his talk tonight I realized how much I have missed hearing his voice and seeing his smiling face in the last few weeks.
Love POTUS but VPOTUS will be just fine. Barack is a once in a lifetime President and I am okay with that. He solved a lot of issues and gained a lot of yards moving us down the political field. Joe will grab the ball and keep it moving. May be at a different pace and with a different moves but the ball WILL keep moving forward. I am totally okay with that.
According to Maddow, the VP from Shell Oil went with the British Foreign Secretary to Tehran to re-open the Embassy there.
Uh huh.
Uh huh.
Uh huh!! 🙂
#DiplomacyHasConsequences …. as some are fond of saying 😉
It may end up that this “emailgate” amounts to little;
but,
Repeating some things I said when this email crap first broke :
(a) installing a private server, undisclosed to your boss, is a betrayal that didn’t have to happen;
(b) once this becomes an issue in the news, then you should produce the material which would put out the hair-on-fire;
(c) supporters may believe you but the media frenzy just diverts attention from important policy issues that are crucial to a campaign;
(d) once you know you are going to run for office (in this case all your life), then plan to clean up as much mess in your life as you can and do not make more
Agree, Linda. But, if it also shown that she received, transmitted and/or stored emails containing classified information on her private email system, she broke several laws – the penalties for doing so being non-trivial. I know of what I write.
BINGO. The thing I really don’t understand is why she chooses to just act pissed instead of just dealing with it. That doesn’t end suspicion, it heightens it.
What she did may not be illegal, but it’s a sure instance of very bad judgment. People who keep insisting that she didn’t break any rules or policy miss the point. And has the State Department changed their policy since this fiasco?
It’s the way the GOP behave when they are accused of anything – works for the GOP – but the media holds the dems accountable for anything and everything – whether they fight it – or ignore it. Caesar’s wife only has to be above suspicion in PBO’s administration.
The law was changed in 2014 Meta, after she left the State department. It now is required that employees only use State department servers for all work related email.
Thanks for the info.
The one person who will work for the nomination is Joe Biden.
mr. wont, Same thing could be said about Hillary Clinton. This election is not a automatic inheritance of the WH for her either.
Exactly. Joe knows that more than anybody, since he actually has a brain.
You are sooooooooo funny!!!!!
Please clarify Bob – funny peculiar??? 🙂
No, just funny!! 😀 😀 😀
Ah, okay, I’ve unblocked you 🙂
😀 😀
*a-hem* Need you ask?
What on earth is that!! And when are you next going on vacation?
Oh, not for a year, so we have 12 months to play 😎
What’s this….I’ve been refreshing the page for close to an hour (after Alycee’s hurdling tweet) and could not get any response, all because I pointed out that you are
peculiar….oops…weird..funny????!! Absolute power really corruptsyou!One of your best, darlin’. And doesn’t it appear that Joe’s eyes are fixated on the tie? Or is that just me. 🙂
It’s kind of mesmerizing, Jacqueline!! 😆
So are the guys wearing it and staring at it!
I. Can’t. Stop. Laughing.
sooo, iran make that bomb yet?
Nope …. and, good morning 🙂
bummerbomber… GM🙂
Good evening, TOD! Listened to POTUS’ address, while enjoying a delightful “Obama’08 Salad” for dinner. “Obama’08 Salad?” Glad you asked! Those that participated on the BarackObama.com blog will recall that folks would offer up all types of enticements to get donations for their fundraisers. One participant offered arugula seeds from her garden. I harvested the seed from my initial planting and continue to do so each year. Tonight’s salad was avocado, mango, Lump crabmeat on a bed of arugula with a ginger pomegranate dressing.
I remember the days!
Remember Helene’s post cards?
I thought of her, after I sent that. I remember having her write one out totally in French (which I love)! We were talking on the phone, every now and then, until about a year ago. Miss her!
Yes, I remember Helene.
Oh, wow, that sounds wonderful, every bit of it from OFA seed to plate.
Ha. Biden is trending #1 on twitter.
Even if nothing “new” comes up after the climate change conference in Paris in December, PBO and his staff are going to have a very busy final 12 months in office. He has started so many things this year that will need managing, first and foremost the Iran deal implementation. The best way to protect this will be to ensure that the implementation has progressed sufficiently so it will not be easily undone. Then there is Cuba, Daesh, Afghanistan, Syria, Putin, etc and that’s just the FP front. Still hoping he gets a positive outcome on his executive orders on immigration so that gets implemented as well. In short, he is going to be one busy President during the remainder of his term!
Welcome back Chips and Danny!!!!
Thank yooooooooooooou Forus!!!
bbl … sup prep ….
Cornel West is tweeting his endorsement of Bernie, in a little series that’s a bit disjointed, if you ask me.
😕
the comments are hysterical.
uhmmmmm it is Cornel West.
New post.
