Michelle Hosts ‘Biggest Loser’ Workout in the East Room

Michelle Hosts ‘Biggest Loser’ Workout in the East Room

A newly found photo that appears to have been taken by the White House itself shows that Michelle Obama last month conducted a sweaty workout session in the East Room as part of an appearance she will make on TV’s “The Biggest Loser.”The ornate and historic East Room is a national treasure that has been used for events like presidential press conferences, command performances by the world’s greatest musicians, the signing of historic legislation like the 1964 Civil Rights Act, shimmering White House parties, presidential awards of military and civilian honors, and the funeral of Abraham Lincoln.And this.The White House may be trying to quash the photo, either because officials realized the it might look like Michelle was trivializing the White House or because they don’t want [...]

Obama’s Trayvon Comments Could Inflame Situation

President Obama’s emotional siding with Trayvon Martin in the Rose Garden Friday, hailed by some as a moment of leadership on race relations, is an egregious abnegation of duty that could help lead to race riots and further deaths.Obama Friday expressed sympathy for Trayvon and said if he had a son “he’d look like Trayvon.” Obama’s comments gave the highest official imprimatur possible to a variety of people who are attempting to create mass protest in response to the tragedy.Speaking just as the 20th anniversary of the Rodney King riots approaches, Obama has now aligned himself with these forces.And yet the facts of the case are not clear and, as our readers have pointed out, local reports currently being ignored by the media indicated that Martin’s shooter, George [...]

Obama’s Irresponsible Entry Into the Trayvon Case

President Obama, under pressure from black leaders who represent his most important political base, reversed course today after days of staying out and waded into the Trayvon Martin killing.In doing so, he probably satisfied is own need to express outrage and appeased a growing clamor for him to say something. But in doing so he has prejudiced the case and allowed political and personal considerations to trump his solemn duty as leader of the nation and chief enforcer of its laws.There are many issues that need to be resolved with respect to the Trayvon case. It’s early, and we don’t have all the facts, and unexpected twists always occur in cases like this.Law enforcement authorities must investigate whether an innocent unarmed African American boy was killed because of racial [...]

President Obama’s Hall of Blame

President Obama has passed the buck to others – mainly George W. Bush – for no less than 13 problems that characterize his presidency, suggesting time and again that his own policies are not to blame for his difficulties and he is simply doing the best that can be done with the cards he was dealt.Even so, Obama is aggressively staking a claim for successes for which Bush shares significant or nearly all responsibility, including increased drilling for oil and natural gas, the end of the Iraq War, and the killing of Osama Bin Laden.What follows is a roster of Obama’s efforts to assign blame for 13 problems that prevail or have faced him during his presidency. In several cases, the quotes here are just one or two of many that show Obama passing the buck on a particular issue.Oil [...]
