A President Under Pressure

And cracking:

"Bruised feelings after Obama-GOP talk" by Washington Post Associated Press Associated Press | May 26, 2010

WASHINGTON — President Obama traveled to Capitol Hill for a rare meeting yesterday with Senate Republicans, but the 75-minute session yielded little progress on hot-button topics and left some senators with bruised feelings.

“He needs to take a Valium before he comes in and talks to Republicans,’’ Senator Pat Roberts, Republican of Kansas, told reporters. “He’s pretty thin-skinned.’’

Actually, I heard it was heroin.

Republican Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas described the meeting as “testy.’’

************

Brownback said Obama explained several times that he was “under pressure from his left’’ on major issues, including climate change.

SINCE WHEN have Democrats CARED what LIBERALS want?

What a LIAR!!!!!!

Obama asked Republicans to be willing to take some of the same criticism from their right flank in working toward bipartisan accords, other senators said....

Yeah, TO HELL with ACTUALLY LISTENING to voters!

What an ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!

Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican who has worked on immigration and energy legislation with the White House, said the oil rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico has doomed the chances of passing a comprehensive bill that would include more offshore drilling and a cap on carbon emission....

Maybe Obama ought to be worried

"Bank owned by US Senate candidate’s family is seized

CHICAGO — Regulators have seized the Chicago community bank owned by the family of US Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias, the Democratic nominee seeking the job once held by President Obama in Illinois.

Broadway Bank had been operating since January under terms of a consent order with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. because of commercial real-estate loan losses. The fate of the bank, whose profits helped finance Giannoulias’s successful 2006 state treasurer bid, has shaped a contest for a seat Democrats have unexpectedly found themselves defending and one that will help determine whether Obama’s party keeps its Senate majority.

The state treasurer a crook?

And that name SOUNDS FAMILIAR!

Obama and Emanuel: members of same gay bath house club in Chicago

Excerpt

President Obama and his chief of staff Rahm Emanuel are lifetime members of the same gay bath house in uptown Chicago, according to informed sources in Chicago’s gay community, as well as veteran political sources in the city.

The bath house, Man’s Country, caters to older white men and it has been in business for some 30 years and is known as one of uptown Chicago’s “grand old bathhouses.” WMR was told by sources who are familiar with the bath house that it provides lifetime memberships to paying customers and that the club’s computerized files and pre-computer paper files, include membership information for both Obama and Emanuel. However, sources close to “Man’s Country” believe the U.S. Secret Service has purged the computer and filing cabinet files of the membership data on Obama and Emanuel.

Members of Man’s Country are also issued club identification cards. WMR learned that Obama and Emanuel possessed the ID cards, which were required for entry.

Obama began frequenting Man’s Country in the mid-1990s, during the time he transitioned from a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School to his election as an Illinois State Senator in 1996. Emanuel, reportedly joined Man’s Country after he left the Clinton White Hosue and moved back to Chicago in 1998, joining the investment firm of Wasserstein Perella and maintaining his membership during his 2002 campaign for the U.S. 5th District House seat vacated by Rod Blagojevich, who was elected governor.

Man’s Country appears to be a “one stop shopping” center for gay men. The club’s website advertises steam rooms, “fantasy rooms,” bed rooms, male strippers, adult movies, and lockers.

However, Man’s Country was not the only location for Obama’s predatory gay sex activities. The Chicago gay community is aware that Obama often made contacts with younger men at his famous “pick-up basketball” games. It was at these “pick up” matches where Obama first met Emanuel and a young Democratic campaign worker and senior bank vice president named Alexi Giannoulias. Currently running for Obama’s old U.S. Senate seat now occupied by Roland Burris, Giannoulias successfully ran for Illinois Treasurer in 2006 after being drafted for the run by Chicago’s Democratic machine.

"Obama chief of staff invites Netanyahu to White House

JERUSALEM — President Obama’s chief of staff yesterday invited Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel to the White House next week, in a sign that strained relations between the allies are beginning to thaw.

Rahm Emanuel, who was in Israel for a private visit, extended the invitation during a meeting with Netanyahu.

Did he go to a BATH HOUSE?

Officials in Netanyahu’s office said the White House meeting would take place next Tuesday, after the Israeli leader wraps up a previously scheduled trip to Canada. Emanuel told reporters the talks would focus on security issues, a likely reference to the Iranian nuclear program, as well as the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

So WHEN is America's security going to enter the conversation, Obomber!

What a tool!!!

The president is “asking to extend an invitation to you to come visit him at the White House for a working meeting to discuss both our shared security interests as well as our close cooperation in seeking peace between Israel and its neighbors.’’

Well, if USrael wanted peace.... sigh.
