you betcha! do you like her better with her hair up or down? I saw her with her hair down, wearing her Neiman Marcus outfit with high boots and I was like woof woof.... then she spoke and I woke up from my stupor and realized.. she is still looking for Putin's head over Alaska somewhere.. the bulldog was just repackaged a little bit more expensively

The truth is that he IS A MUSLIM, he swore in on the koran, not the christian bible. Even athiests would use the bible before using the koran, its just a fact that the islamic beliefs do NOT create good people. Christians belive in doing whats right and being a good person, muslims believe in limiting rights of women and killing ALL who do not agree with them. And dont mention the inquisition, that was the roman catholic church...the very people who KILLED JESUS. I wouldnt even consider them to be christians . But anyway, If you believe that Obama is a christian, then i guess you also believe that he had no idea of reverend wrights hate for american and what it stands for. He wasnt going to that church as a christian, he was going as a fellow hater of america.Open your eyes before you vote for that traitorous demon!

I pay taxes just like you, I am a helpful citizen to this country, I pay my rent, I pay my bills on time, I follow the laws, and even do community service that is not court orderd.

Hey, my wife works for an AE firm and is thinking about going for her LEED Accreditation (she works in Marketing/Communications). Is it pretty tough?

(sorry, off topic)

We are enveloped in an idealistic power struggle, neither of which follows what our founding fathers laid out for us.
HOLY CRAP! A freaking voice of reason here! I can't believe it. If you were in front of me, I'd have to shake your hand. For now, though, I can only give you a rep point.

Default press having second thoughts about President Obama

News organizations concerned about access issues at the Obama White House - Los Angeles Times (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/wire/sns-ap-obama-news-access,1,6232068.story - broken link)
NEW YORK (AP) — News organizations that cover the White House sparred with the Obama administration on Thursday over access issues for photographers and rules for briefings.
The Associated Press, Reuters and Agence France-Presse refused to distribute photos taken by the White House of the new president on his first day in the Oval Office because of the dispute. Still photographers were also not given access to Obama's do-over oath of office administered Wednesday night by Chief Justice John Roberts and an economics meeting on Thursday.


Wonder if this is the start of "Commrade Obama" instead of President Obama?

Might I also add, that on the SECOND do-over, Obama did NOT swear on the Bible.

Obama flashes irritation in press room - Jonathan Martin and Carrie Budoff Brown - Politico.com
President Obama made a surprise visit to the White House press corps Thursday night, but got agitated when he was faced with a substantive question.

Asked how he could reconcile a strict ban on lobbyists in his administration with a Deputy Defense Secretary nominee who lobbied for Raytheon, Obama interrupted with a knowing smile on his face.

"Ahh, see," he said, "I came down here to visit. See this is what happens. I can't end up visiting with you guys and shaking hands if I'm going to get grilled every time I come down here."

Pressed further by the Politico reporter about his Pentagon nominee, William J. Lynn III, Obama turned more serious, putting his hand on the reporter's shoulder and staring him in the eye.

"Alright, come on" he said, with obvious irritation in his voice. "We will be having a press conference at which time you can feel free to [ask] questions. Right now, I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself to you guys - that's all I was trying to do."

Media frustration spills into briefing - Michael Calderone - Politico.com
A growing media frustration with Barack Obama’s team spilled into the open at Thursday’s briefing, with reporters accusing the White House of stifling access to his oath re-do and giving Obama’s first interview as president to a multi-million dollar inauguration sponsor.

Veteran CBS newsman Bill Plante was one of the most vocal critics, questioning the White House’s handling of Wednesday night’s second swearing in – which was covered by just a four-reporter print pool that didn’t include a news photographer or TV correspondent.

He also asked new press secretary Robert Gibbs why ABC, which paid millions to host the DC Neighborhood Ball, was granted the only inauguration day interview with President Obama – a move he equated to “pay to play.”

O please, the press will continue to be all over Obamas nuts just like the rest of the country. That was just a story hungry reporter not knowing the time and place to interview a president. Rookie move if you ask me. I wonder what Bush did to **** off the media so much, other than being a royal screw up.
