I was thinking in reading your comment how much it means to know someone loves our President Obama. When I know that to be the case my heart opens up to a perfect stranger in a way that I find to be incredible. Its a kind of club of the heart that we belong to that means more than just about anything when gaging how we feel toward another, how much trust we bestow, etc. I guess I don’t need perfect, I don’t need much but I do need to know how someone sincerely feels about President Obama. If they throw him under the bus or use him as a foil in some way then my trust takes a hit, a big hit. Another thing about President Obama and Michelle, with the pull they have on our hearts they could raise up or diminish others, like Trump does, at a whim just because they have that kind of influence, but true to their character the Obamas never do that. They believe in respecting, empowering, and including and that means making up our own minds. God bless them. However, lots of people seem to misunderstand, it doesn’t work both ways. If someone decides to make hay by betraying the trust of the Obamas, mistreating them in plain view, then I say please proceed because you are making your own bed with people like me. Its because the Obamas don’t ever misuse their influence that I can be sure that mistreatment of them is never going to be okay with me. Never.
I agree with you. It hurts me to see people like Elizabeth Warren treat President Obama with such disrespect because of all that he did for her. Her lack of loyalty makes me feel that I can’t support her anymore, just like Bernie Sanders lost my respect, Alison Grimes, Van Jones, etc. whereas any of PBO’s former team NEVER diss him (Josh Earnest, Jon Favreau & Dan Pheiffer, Jon Lovett, etc. even Howard Dean treats him always with respect). Hillary also, once she worked with him, has never dissed him. It has become a standard on which I do judge others which may seem unfair, but I don’t care. The Obamas are worthy of my trust and have never let me down.
“The Obamas never misuse their influence.” I think of Trump walking into the Whites House and both Obamas waited for Melania and walked with her, they’re hands on her back. President Obama may have talked sternly to his critics and the people who thwarted him, but he didn’t diminish then as humans, and he didn’t flatter and fawn. This is what had opponent on the right and left can’t understand. He is who he is, always guided by his North Star. Like you I tend to respond to people based on how they respond to the Obamas.
Six years ago tonight. Sunday, May 1, 2011. This was the 841st frame I made that day. I had taken the “Situation Room photo” some seven hours earlier. It was now after 11:00p.m. The President was making some final edits to his remarks to tell the nation that Osama bin Laden had been killed. As news began to leak on television, I changed my point of focus when I saw a video of bin Laden on the TV in the Outer Oval Office. petesouza
PBO’s Saturday that day: 1. play golf while mulling final decision; 2. Give the kill order; 3. Wipe the dining room floor with Donny boy at the WHCD. Fast forward to 2017; Donny whines that PBO is not taking his calls as he stews in ignorance and unhappiness in an office that he did not really want in a vain effort to get back at PBO. PBO: still winning.
It should not be true, what you wrote about Trump, but it is. Its so surreal that such a mature, competent person could be followed by such a messed up one that is obsessed with his predecessor. In some strange and round about, arch of the moral universe kind of way, President Obama’s quite fair teasing of Donald Trump has led to this moment and may in the end lead to the demise of many of the dirty tricks and cheating of the GOP that the President had to face during his administration.
Cool!
How was your May Day? Hope no anarchists messed it up! Great to be in our state capitol today for an immigrant and workers’ rights rally and march.
@truefactsstated (Twitter bio: Claude Taylor, served on Clinton WH staff) believes that our next president will be Orrin Hatch (which means he thinks we’ll be saying adios to both Pence and Ryan):
I think what Taylor is saying is that the FBI storm that’s coming will be enormous. All those above the Senate Pro Tem will likely be indicted. And I think will be gone too.
MSM continues to prop up DJT and make excuses for everything he does to dismantle democracy with plutocratic oligarchic thugocracy.
MSM bends over backwards to say “nothing to see here, move along…” and defiantly declines to offer pushback to the loudest GOP liar who can get MSM attention.
“We now have Russian assets, agents, and spies in control of two branches of the federal government. the Executive and Legislative branches. This means when the FBI’s counterintelligence division executes their many many many warrants, most of Trump’s team if not all of them will be removed along with a significant number of GOP House members and US senators. It may also mean the arrests of some individuals in state government at the executive level. ”
Are we taking bets on whether MSM will wake up once the indictments come in?
@imaginepeace5@CassieJHill@TrueFactsStated Many, many investigations on-going. GJ is criminal (RICO, FARA). FBI Counter-Intel (this) is national security investigation (Russia).
I don’t watch JKL on a regular basis, but I just happened to tune in last night when he was about halfway through his monologue. Maybe this will help the undecideds — and maybe even some of the “yes-votes” — decide to do the right thing and vote no on AHCA.
The GOP are still scrambling for votes, and the most viral video in America is a crying talk-show host warning their health plan is wrong.
I cried through the whole video. Bless him for also thinking of others after going through such a harrowing experience himself. Healthcare is life or death, it is as simple as that. That these nasty, greedy, hateful Republicans and insurance companies are willing to let so many of us suffer and die needlessly is the greatest sin.
Me too. I couldn’t stop crying. It was a beautiful thing. And he paid homage to all the hospital staff who helped save his baby’s life. I got the biggest smile through my tears when I saw the baby with his post op surgery smile. Best baby smile evar. This video gives me hope for humanity.
Not a fan of Mark Cuban (don’t trust him), but he highlights what can only be bigotry on the part of the pearl clutchers.
And as I’ve said here earlier, I think PBO’s engagement fee is a flat $400K (previous annual salary), take it or leave it…
I agree with Cuban. Obama should charge more. Kendall Jenner gets paid $300,000 to do a single post for a brand on her Instagram account. https://t.co/By3aCxjwIG

Called my idiot Republican FREEDUMB Caucus member to tell him NOT to vote yes on this deathcare bill….and that if he DID vote yes, I will make it my highest priority to make sure that he gets voted out of office.
Finished the first episode of Dear White People on Netflix. There was a scene of a meeting of all the differing Black factions on campus. Had me HOLLERING in it’s accuracy. I know everyone of those Black folks. Hilarious!
Can’t wait to continue watching it.
JOHN DICKERSON: George W. Bush said the reason the Oval Office is round is there are no corners you can hide in.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well, there’s truth to that. There is truth to that. There are certainly no corners. And you look, there’s a certain openness. But there’s nobody out there. You know, there is an openness, but I’ve never seen anybody out there actually, as you could imagine.
JOHN DICKERSON: But he– what he meant was it’s– all comes —
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Sure. Sure.
JOHN DICKERSON: –back to you.
One would think, in simply realistic terms, how these journos were privileged to interview President Obama, and actually learn something, (despite being stupid and sh*tty to him afterwards), now to sit facing a total lunatic whining and barely stringing words together to convey ANYTHING lucid, I’d imagine they must come away stunned and terrified. It would be even more beneficial to the planet if they were honest and principled enough to spell it out loud and clear, so even the dumbest among us would have to listen.
Owners/leadership for the @RedSox should step up re: this. Continuing to allow their fans to demonstrate this behavior makes them complicit. https://t.co/0tvJSPD3VS
The report on Jimmy’s comments from the msn newsfeed this morning left out everything that he said that related to healthcare and the shit storm related to it. Media still covering up, hiding, and selecting anything said against 45 and GOP fuckery. So thankful that there are other sources from which to get information than the national media.

Thank you very much, brp! I’ve been so emotional lately, I don’t understand what is happening to me. I guess it’s a feeling of powerlessness. But I must remember, as you say, this too shall pass.
I have never been a Hillary cheerleader but hearing her speak so intelligently about foreign policy at this women’s conference right now makes me even more frustrated that people in this country opted for that idiot (#45). What a complete waste of power these next 4 years will be. Sigh!!
The JImmy Kimmel tape made me cry. I’ve been there with a child facing death, just one year old facing Acute Myelocytic Leukema. Unfortunately we lost him, but we could have been financially devastated and lost our home had we not had insurance coverage.
I love Tom Hanks and he loves our (forever!) president! Good evening, Nerdy and thanks for this bit of lightness!

I feel the same; you have expressed the sentiment perfectly.

Just reading this makes me cry. I’m so tired of fighting these amoral twits in Congress. We need this nightmare to END.
dear meta don’t cry. This to shall pass.
Thank you very much, brp! I’ve been so emotional lately, I don’t understand what is happening to me. I guess it’s a feeling of powerlessness. But I must remember, as you say, this too shall pass.
OMG!!!! I screamed when I saw this PBO tweet. It’s everything. EVERYTHING. PBO has such perfect timing and such beautiful uplifting words.
I have never been a Hillary cheerleader but hearing her speak so intelligently about foreign policy at this women’s conference right now makes me even more frustrated that people in this country opted for that idiot (#45). What a complete waste of power these next 4 years will be. Sigh!!
I still can’t believe this happened, that we’re here, with an insane lunatic and his insufferable family in the WH.
listening to Clinton and the breadth of her intelligence compared to the idiot in the WH was a breath of fresh air.
I don’t feel like joking about it much, but this makes him look like the idiot he is, so it’s good.
The JImmy Kimmel tape made me cry. I’ve been there with a child facing death, just one year old facing Acute Myelocytic Leukema. Unfortunately we lost him, but we could have been financially devastated and lost our home had we not had insurance coverage.
