Obama Ocean Drilling Gesture Sounds Fishy
The Obama administration announced today that it is going to allow exploration for oil off the Atlantic Coast, but no drilling until at least 2017.SO NOW, the White House is going to tout the big move – the gutsy move – the president made. But no oil comes up out of the ground for at least five years, until after his – planned – second term is up.The oil guys all say this is political posturing, since there’s no guarantee there will even be drilling after the government gets a better idea of how much oil is down there. What’s more, this comes after President Obama nixed the planned 2011 start of lease-granting for drilling off the Virginia coast.Which makes this whole exercise a little bit like burning down a forest and then patting yourself on the back for planting trees.The [...]

Video || Obama’s Health Care Etch-a Sketch
During the presidential campaign, most people have forgotten, President Obama was opposed to the individual health insurance mandate, using the idea in particular to trash Hillary, who supported it. Just a month after being elected, he started signaling that well, on second thought, he might support it too.The video below was produced by Crossroads, which is the group founded by Karl Rove that will pump millions into the presidential race for things like this, As well as massive TV advertising to support Republican candidates. It’s partisan, but the thrust of the video is accurate.What it leaves out, of course, is that the mandate was originally a Republican idea, and still was considered such when Mitt Romney created Romneycare just six years ago.The thinking was that you could marshal [...]

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 [...]
