In his quest to appear to relate to the commoners, Obama takes a page from Bloomberg
“The president does not get paid that much. He is on a budget, too.”.
and joins the common complaint
Obama: Our finances have suffered, too
Forget the fact that Bloomberg also defended poor pharma and BP Obama relates tu us thusly
He says he and first lady Michelle Obama took a hit like everybody else when the economy nearly collapsed, telling ABC that a college fund for daughters Malia and Sasha has gone “up and down” with the stock market.
How endearing! Losing investments on Wall Street is indeed Everyman’s plight!
And on the other hand, how does he know the value of his investments? Shouldn’t those be placed in a blind trust to insure he wouldn’t be too invested in Wall Street?
Silly me, I am talking about the good ol’days when appearances of propriety counted.
That also explains his vested interest in Wall Street.
And don’t forget his humble beginings, please!
“it was just a few years ago that we had high credit card balances, we had two kids, thinking about college. We had our own retirement accounts, wondering if we were going to be able to get enough assets in there.”
Geez, being a Senator is hard! . And arugula prices had gone through the roof!
Oh, the humanity!
But relax, people. Obama is one of us! Assets, college funds – WTF are those?
Aren’t you feeling better now financing his lavish parties and vacations with your taxes?
But I get it now. Goldman Sachs, AIG, Lehman Brothers BP – they are not the only ones losing on Wall Street. Obama is too.
And once the cat food commission gets its hands on our social security, you too will know the agony of being an investor – though not by choice I’m afraid.

Boston Herald gives good John God tested me Kerry yet another shot at page one
in the oil-kill news blockade, storm abated
and so did the BP funds to pay the victims
and it’s from a local Florida paper we find out about the war casualties
Obama Times has a SCOTUS report
and on a lighter note, Mad Men returns!
.
I tried explaining with words earlier.
This is way easier
Former GOP House Speaker Newt Gingrich – who appeared in the same Fox News Sunday segment – retorted, “If the Obama administration is this afraid of Glenn Beck, how do they deal with the Iranians?”
helps the story along
and a new cartoon..
Yesterday fun stories continue: John Florida doesn’t count Kerry has no defense for tax evasion
Boston Globe last year issues continue to be posted by Newseum – was the media’s fault then too?
On the more serious side, it was revealed BP kept the alarms off on rigs so the workers can sleep
and in the oil-kill news blockade, worries persist on Bonnie
and check those underwater oil clouds
in LA they think it’s still possible for the storm to pick up
while here, on the East Coast – we bake again.
