Vc is not playing by the same rules…she is leaning on the door with one toe in…
And as soon as I turn my head, Chips posted a new thread and places vc’s prize at the top of the thread! Not fair! I’m going to complain to PBO about this…
Wait a minute there, Hf, I have done nothing, NO-THING illegal! *I* am not to be blamed for following the rules as (not) written. I’m not afraid of PBO ‘about this’ because he knows all the rules….so there!
Phew! (wiping sweat from brow) He’s probably already planning to address the rules BEFORE the election, so I suspect my days leaning on the door are numbered. Well, it was great while it lasted.
See, that’s why you shouldn’t swear? Seriously I cheated multitasked by opening two browsers. Like Mitt, I didn’t break any laws, just used the available loopholes.
Hey, CK, I notice you’ve been trying to keep the special date in my mind’s eye so I’ll have no excuse not to remember! Did you receive your phone call, or is Mr. Pres saving it for your present?
No I haven’t got the call yet. I don’t know when it will be. OFA says they sent it to the WH. I’m trying not to think about it because it’s been 5 months.
Hello ck, I saw you enjoying the men’s bb game immensely…can’t wait for the final matches. By the way I heard that Chips is baking a delicious special birthday cake…I wonder for whom…PBO? Willard? Miss Ann?
Mark knoller got us all started on this food scene with his pork and rice and beans tweet! I think that’s when he loves PBO the most, watching him eat.
HUGE & STUPID Mistake for Liar ROmoney to respond to Mr. Leader aka Harry Reid. Now Harry will have to respond. Who advises this guy? Thanks Chips for the pictures.
Romney was a bully, is still a bully. Ann Romney thinks the Presidency is owed them. Remember how Willard dismissed pres Obama when asked by Diane Sawyer if he had a massage for the president? Romney said, Start Packing. The expression on Diane Sawyer’s face was priceless. In the same interview, her Majesty, Ann, told Diane Sawyer that “it’s Mitt’s Turn. It is our Turn”. Then with Robin Roberts, we became, YOU PEOPLE.
President Obama has selected Colin Powell to lead a presidential delegation to Jamaica to attend a celebration marking the 50th anniversary of the country’s independence.
Powell, who served as secretary of state during the Bush administration, is the child of Jamaican immigrants. He endorsed Obama in 2008 but has yet to support him in 2012. He said in May that he has known Mitt Romney “for many years, good man.”
Other members named to the delegation to Jamaica are Pamela Bridgewater, U.S. ambassador to Jamaica; and Rep. Yvette D. Clarke, (D-N.Y.). The anniversary celebration will be held in Kingston on Monday.
Anyone who can still call Mitt a “good man” after witnessing his mendacity, bullying, ugliness, has to be seriously lacking in judgement. And given the fact that Powell was a member of the Bush Admin, is still a proud member of today’s Republican party after the attacked him and have attacked the man who had the guts to run for President (after Powell wimped out) – that’s not someone I can still respect.
In this election season, the Democrats have become something they haven’t been in decades: disciplined. Harry Reid does nothing without careful thought. His bringing up the idea that Romney didn’t pay taxes for ten years wasn’t done cavalierly. Barack Obama, obviously, does nothing without careful consideration. You have to be pretty talented to defeat both Hillary Clinton and John McCain, all while being black. His campaign’s attacks have unfolded methodically, at times of his choosing, dealing the most severe blows. The pundits and Democratic “insiders” like James Carville may whine; but they do so because they’re no longer insiders. This is Obama’s show now, and he gets to choose the cast. And the show’s synopsis is neutering the GOP for a generation.
I have no doubt about it. Yes, money is important and keeps thousands of advertising people in their jobs but it is not everything. The crowds are a BIG clue. PBO draws huge, ecstatic crowds. Mittens makes very, very few public appearances — or at least appearances that aren’t heavily scripted. So far, PBO’s people are running a campaign that will be studied in future poly sci classes. The timing is exquisite. The announcing of the keynote speaker at the DNC, just when Mittens was making teeny-tiny appeals to hispanics. I look forward to whatever they still have up their sleeves.
There isn’t one there that will tell you they don’t know and trust him. especially those that have touched him or looked into his eyes. Each one is prepared to be a “Little John” to his “Robin of Lochsley”!(Sorry, I’m an incurable romantic.- )
Definitely! i believe there’s enough love to power him to November and through his second term. I’ve always believed there are more people who love him than hate him. It’s the love that’s so puzzling (and frightening) to his opponents.
Rafalca is into liberal politics!!! Wonder if they know about this, the Romneys. Love the slogan “Dancing for Romney so you don’t have to”
And this riotous link that Rafalca provides
Tweety just had two ardent teabaggers on and they are some real scary fools. They were perched on their chairs like birds-o-prey, with unblinking eyes and penetrating stares.
Man Dad once said, “Son, if it doesn’t blink;it doesn’t think.” I never understood that until now. The teabaggers are like hungry owls!
I fast-forward through tea partiers when Tweety has them on.
I know what they’re going to say, not worth the aggravation. Especially tonight, when I’m looking forward to Go Gabby, Go. (I’m on west coast, and imagine most of her performance will be aired on NBC in about 5 hours from now.)
I was loving the photos—-the cutie pie baby with the huge red flower headband—–and the wildly enthusiastic crowd—-familiar but still pretty amazing and reassuring. Until I got to the New Beginnings camp identifier. Then I was just sad. You can read about the “miracles” (trickery) happening there—–how on one of the first days after this church opened its doors the paralyzed guy got our of his wheelchair and walked for the first time!—–and right in front of the TV cameras!!! You can learn the secrets of how this church promises to heal “all infirmities and sicknesses”—-for the bargain price of $12.95 for the good pastor’s book, drastically reduced from reg. price of $24.95——-or the CD set for $29.95, reduced from $49.95. Or if these aren’t sufficient, there’s a long, long list of CD selections which promises to cure what ails you—-and take your money. Taking advantage of people. http://www.jonathanmillerministries.com/
Yes, dotster, I thought that baby girl looks just edible! You know the kind of baby you just can’t stop kissing on those gorgeous cheeks! And when they laugh, you kiss them more!
Okay, this is one of the cutest Rally Babies yet. What a chunky, smiley, happy little cherub! I see parents are acting very strategically now — they’re putting the biggest bows/flowers/hats on their babies’ heads that they can in order to get PBO’s attention. Too cute!
I ‘love’ her, PJ! My first reaction when I saw her was ‘I could take that little sweetie home anytime’. Of course as soon as I thought it I realized it wasn’t the thing to say aloud in today’s climate when we have to be so careful of our children.
Let’s bombard Romney : ‘YOU put up or shut up. Release the taxes’. Romney is an idiot to have issued the challenge in those terms – too easy to hit back at him.
The President seems to be rolling along in a natural ‘professorial’ way. I love it. Nobody listening will leave without understanding what the choices are going into this election.
I hope I am wrong but am starting to worry that Mitt Romney is a SICK man that needs professional help for his lying. When I watched Rachel Maddow last night & she pointed out how long he’s been lying, about the same things regarding his taxes, I was shocked.
Yup. She did a good job. But neither she nor the dem guy she had on explain how the MA dems lost their case to the elections board about his residency. How did the fucker get away with it after openly admitting that he lied ? Was the elections board stacked with rethugs ?
Woohooooooo! That was a FIRED UP speech and a FIRED UP crowd!

You know what? Methinks since Dana divorced John King, her views seem to be changing….perhaps that was a huge source of tension in the marriage for all you know. Check this out:
I was just reading that. Hmmmmm. So John King and David Gergen have paired up to defend Bain and Willard/Bain, as if their lives depended on it. And now King’s divorced wife, Dana, has a “credible source” on the Reid accusation. I’m wondering if her source was an unwilling, unwitting ex-spouse, something he told her once upon a time. And she’s making a power play, in more ways than one. Inter-esting. We shall see. I don’t think she’d blab that she had a credible source unless she could name him/her if need be.
And unbelievable of CNN to allow Gergen to defend Bain to the death, giving his supposed objective opinion, when he is admittedly on the payroll of Bain enterprises.
They’ve been divorced for a year or longer. The marital bliss did not last long. And —–not surprising. Who in their right mind would want to be married to race-obsessed John King???
Yes he is! I will never, ever forget that interview he did with Dick Cheney shortly after the inauguration, on his new show on Sunday mornings. Cheney sat there spitting out lie after lie about our President and King just half-smiled and nodded in agreement. I turned the tv off before the interview ended; I have not watched CNN since – 3+ years. I don’t miss it. I have been active on several blogs before and since then and have read and seen how others have slowly but persistently started calling CNN out for what they really are, especially people like John King.
at the end of there, there was an older gentleman in a blue baseball cap signing to PBO on the rope line. the guy was signing away and PBO was nodding, then I think he briefly signed back.

The plot thickens. Don’t mess with Harry Reid. He speaks softly but does not condone BS. I notice the Romney camp isn’t pushing back hard and McCain has been silent.
I believe that the source is either McCain’s 08 vetting team (who probably revealed that info to someone at that time, 4 yrs ago), or John King of CNN to his then wife Dana (unwittingly).
Yo @MittRomney among the things you didn't learn in Law School that @SenatorReid definitely did – never ask a ? if you don't know the answer— Bobfr (@Our4thEstate) August 03, 2012
MSNBC (is that still their name? didn’t they drop the “MS” affiliation?) is virtually alone in covering the voter “poll-tax” suppression outrage.
Congress is out for 5 weeks, Romney is a disaster of his own making, etc.; the MSM really has no excuse for not investigating who will be eligible to vote in November.
Today I stumbled upon @NABJdigital (National Association of Black Journalists) which was live-tweeting from the UNITY Convention
(UNITY: Journalists, Inc. is a coalition of the four alliances, the Asian American Journalists Association, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, the Native American Journalists Association and the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association) being held in Las Vegas now, and was alarmed by the situation facing our First Citizens (Native Americans):

(I don’t know who the Trahant is that the tweeter referenced, but assume it’s someone with first hand experience of Native Americans in Idaho).

Reid not backing down, releases statement: "There is only one thing he can do to clear this up, and that’s release his tax returns.”— Sam Stein (@samsteinhp) August 03, 2012
Obama’s app — a grassroots organizing tool and voting rights guide rolled into a sleek new app — is currently the 21st most downloaded app. Mitt Romney’s app — which notifies users as soon as he picks a running mate is also among the top apps, clocking in at 54th.
It’s like those empty olympics seats and the fake twitter followers, jovie. Wanna bet mittbot’s corporate buddies are buying up his app by tons just to prop him up.
And yet he is still losing to ‘plebes’. Hilarious.
Did anyone beside me catch Michael Dyson on the Ed were he was talking about what some black people were saying about Gabby Douglas hair. I can not believe what I was hearing, here this young black girl have accomplish something great and all black people can talk about is Gabby’s hair. What the hell is wrong with some people? I see nothing wrong with her hair. As a black American I am dam proud of Miss Douglas and the idiots on tweeter complaining about Douglas hair can go kiss a donkey behind.
Dyson should not give these ignorant folks national attention. The majority of Black people are thrilled and very supportive of Gabby and don’t give two farts about her hair. There are ALWAYS ignorant people who will make stupid comments, regardless, which is why I’m surprised that Dyson featured those ignoramuses (who should be ignored) on his show .
What exactly was wrong with Gabby Douglas’ hair? What does her hair have to do with sports? What’s happened to Michael Dyson? He should be ashamed to stoop this low by giving shallow black folks a megaphone to trivialize Gabby’s historic achievements at the Olympics.
THIS Anniebella. She is only 16. I would not care if she hadany hair at all. She has accomplished something major that none of the folks who are criticizing her could ever accomplish. She will have enough money to do whatever she want with her hair if she chooses to do so after this. I am soooo proud of her.
wow, small people for sure. I think attacking a teen age girl ought to be off limits period.. but to attack her for such nonsense after she’s accomplished so much- is the epitomy of small mean people.
I missed it. What are they saying about her hair? And why are they talking about her hair?????? Wow—-missing the point—–by a huge margin. Her hair is exactly like all the other 100′s of gymnasts’ hair——pulled back in a pony tail with multiple barrettes and—-do they still call them bobby pins?—-holding every hair in place as they twist and turn in the wind. Some people are too shallow, can’t see the forest for the trees.
I would like to see who is talking about her hair. No one gives a rats ass. She is an amazing young lady, is talented and has a personality that could light up a room.
I am glad I missed that segment. Somethings are not worth giving a voice and this was one of them. That is why I can hardly wait for Ed to come back. And that says a lot because I couldn’t stand Ed given his history telling folks not to vote in 2010.
Dana Bash, Sam Stein and Howard Fineman have Sources, credible Witnesses and Dogs and Ponies, that say Reid has Credible Sources that says Robney is a Liar about His taxes.
Romney demands Reid produce Romney tax returns. RT @mikememoli: Romney: "It's time for Harry to put up or shut up." Tax claims are "wrong."— David Corn (@DavidCornDC) August 02, 2012
Jovie, I would not put Harry Reid in the same category as Howard Fineman and Sam Stein.
Does Reid habitually spread rumors citing “sources?” No he doesn’t. I believe he DOES have a credible source, and that source is John McCain’s vetting team (accountants and tax lawyers from 2008).

Just saw on twitter that President Obama and I are exactly alike. We both worked at Dairy Queen in high school! Footlongs and hot fudge sundaes were big at my Queen. And I found out recently that I have not lost my talent for placing that little curly q at the top of the cones! Impressive! Wonder if President Obama has also retained that special skill! Bet he has!
I agree that this should not become the “story” NOW. The child has won a hard earned and historic victory on so many levels (not just as a first AA, but as first US medalist in women’s individual all around AND Team), and that should be the story, not what some ignorant folks are saying about her hair.
I do recall some unkind and ignorant remarks being made about gymnast Shaun Johnson being “too thick” or “too fat” during the 2008 Olympics, so there are always a bunch of resentful and ignorant folks making comments. These folks should be dismissed.
For pete’s sake what was wrong with Gabby Douglas hair. These people who have nothing better to do then criticize that young girl are all a bunch of S.O.B. Forgive my English. Bravo to Gabby
My daughter was at the campaign in Orlando today. This event was scheduled prior to the Colorado shooting which was cancelled. She was waited a little over three hours before she got in. While waiting she kept texting me.
She had a wonderful time and was close enough to see the President and take pictures. Unfortunately she did not get a chance to shake his hand as everyone wanted to.
About the baby above, she said she saw this baby being passed overhead and people was actually lifting the baby toward the President. The parents were two to three feet behind her and they were shouting “pass the baby to the President” . . . it was hilarious.
She said the President is very handsome and that smile really is addictive!
Taxing question for @MittRomney is now are you hiding a felony in your tax returns? @TheLastWord at 10pm.— Lawrence O'Donnell (@Lawrence) August 03, 2012
After his speech, he surveyed the scene, couldn’t find a way down and then just hopped off the runway. Cute to see a line of Secret Service agents hopping down after him. He’s never at a loss to solve problems.
OMG, that little baby is SUPER DUPER CUTE!!! Phone banked tonight and had an old man say that the only thing PBO has done was save some cars with messed up batteries. I laughed at him!! Right in his ear! He was nice though and he ended the call by saying we have different opinions and it was nice talking to you. I was still laughing when I said bye.
Willard hired a PR firm to clean up his Bain Mess. the woman is the one who worked with BP in attempts to recover it’s image after the oil spill. she also worked for Bush in PR with her buddy Dan Senor. Willard is such a fucking shit. {{SMH}} why is he such a loser?
Mitt obviously sees his campaign as a disaster akin to the BP oil spill. Hires BP's lead spin doctor. #p2— Steve Weinstein (@steveweinstein) August 03, 2012
I know right?! his campaign is like Painting By Numbers. No talent, no soul. that’s how he acts, like ’1+1=2, so why the fuck isn’t everything going the way I want?!’ robotic toolbag!!!
what a great enthusiastic crowd. mittbot can never have one like this.
I am glad that harry reid is sticking the shiv into willard’s lying guts making him go still crazier. I am shocked that this guy got away with his tax-return bs for so long. It took a gutsy black man finally to expose this unethical money grabber.

there is something deeply wrong with republicans and these changes in voting laws. how can they look themselves in the mirror? they don’t care how they win, whether by hook or by crook. dirty bastards. I’m telling you, these are the last dying gasps of the GOP. They will not stand to fight another day. they’ve gone too far. it’s like they’ve lost their humanity. now they are just crass, greedy, base, core-less bastards.
Couldn’t agree more, Lisa. At today’s summary hearing in the PA Commonwealth Court, it was obvious the Republicans aren’t even trying anymore. The argument comes down to ” we’re making life difficult for voters because we can.” Too bad if it hurts people.
who knew I could learn something from The Cow?! “poll watchers”? say what now? people hired to intimidate voters so they don’t vote at the polls? Fricking repukes. disgusting creatures.
Lisa: Orange Julius aka Limp Boner has never been sober a day in his life. ………. fuck off Bonehead! PBO works harder than you do, any day. Didn’t you just start your 5 week vacation? Vacation from what? Not passing any bills? Not providing legislation for any jobs? Vacation from what? your one week on, one week off schedule? Go screw yourself, you nasty old orange freak!
He will not release them, because the People who give Him Dough, are doing the same evading, or worse. And they also want their tax cuts… This would foil everything, so – here 10 million more dollars, now shut up Willard. LOL!

Hey Chipstar! Did you know you’re at the top of the list for a Gold Medal in the OFA Summer Grassroots Challenge?! Donna is 3rd!! And i’m in the Silver category.
I know, and I see a few fellow TODObots who need to come on over at least to silver, then all of us on to Gold! But I just read through the official rules, and am kinda sad, coz I don’t have Twitter and it says PBO will send out 3 Tweets to 3 people on Twitter… Then it goes on to say how the final winners will be picked, and notified. But I read it all 2x, and still don’t see what the prize is! Am I just too tired or something? (I don’t really care, actually, what the prize is, but it would be cool to have my image used in the campaign if they want!)
So, how fun! OFA just launched a medal placing for FR pages, and I am delighted to see TOD (YOU CHIPSTICKS) is leading by a wide margin with 29 gold, not far behind her is our own DD4O, with 17 gold… Very proud to say, I have placed (lower) in silver, with 4 donations, but we all know that will change, right?! I only need three more to get into the Gold Medal winners column! Anyone like to give me a hand up!? WooHoo!
Now Sam stein of HP, and Anderson Cooper are all super outraged that Reid could make a wild accusation without first proving anything….Sam Stein that has pushed so many nasty and false rumors about our President from “unnamed sources” or “anonymous WH officials” in the course of the last 3 years…now he’s so concerned about Reid’s statement?
So, what’re we discussing in this thread? Anybody has a ‘nice’ ‘grassrooty’ story to share?
So it is possible for a person to be in two places at one time. I could have sworn you’re commenting on both threads. Congrats!
Vc is not playing by the same rules…she is leaning on the door with one toe in…
And as soon as I turn my head, Chips posted a new thread and places vc’s prize at the top of the thread! Not fair! I’m going to complain to PBO about this…
Wait a minute there, Hf, I have done nothing, NO-THING illegal! *I* am not to be blamed for following the rules as (not) written. I’m not afraid of PBO ‘about this’ because he knows all the rules….so there!
LOL! My President just sent a text saying that all is well with vc.
Phew! (wiping sweat from brow) He’s probably already planning to address the rules BEFORE the election, so I suspect my days leaning on the door are numbered. Well, it was great while it lasted.
You can always change the rules…retroactively.

Nope. He said he “values his privacy”

President Obama has selected Colin Powell to lead a presidential delegation to Jamaica to attend a celebration marking the 50th anniversary of the country’s independence.
Powell, who served as secretary of state during the Bush administration, is the child of Jamaican immigrants. He endorsed Obama in 2008 but has yet to support him in 2012. He said in May that he has known Mitt Romney “for many years, good man.”
Other members named to the delegation to Jamaica are Pamela Bridgewater, U.S. ambassador to Jamaica; and Rep. Yvette D. Clarke, (D-N.Y.). The anniversary celebration will be held in Kingston on Monday.

That’s cool!
Of course, Donovan Slack had to ruin this information, with that tidbit about Robney!
She’s on a roll these days Jovie, literally endless anti-PBO pieces and links at Politico, she actually makes Byron Tau seem impartial.
Anyone who can still call Mitt a “good man” after witnessing his mendacity, bullying, ugliness, has to be seriously lacking in judgement. And given the fact that Powell was a member of the Bush Admin, is still a proud member of today’s Republican party after the attacked him and have attacked the man who had the guts to run for President (after Powell wimped out) – that’s not someone I can still respect.
where is he ?

I don’t know about anyone else but when I see the photos above, I see LOVE. Sheer and unadulterated!
Let’s just hope that love transfers into votes in November.
No if ands or buts about it.
I have no doubt about it. Yes, money is important and keeps thousands of advertising people in their jobs but it is not everything. The crowds are a BIG clue. PBO draws huge, ecstatic crowds. Mittens makes very, very few public appearances — or at least appearances that aren’t heavily scripted. So far, PBO’s people are running a campaign that will be studied in future poly sci classes. The timing is exquisite. The announcing of the keynote speaker at the DNC, just when Mittens was making teeny-tiny appeals to hispanics. I look forward to whatever they still have up their sleeves.
+ 1,000,000,000 Yardarm, it leaps from the photos, these people will fight to the end for him, inspirational!
There isn’t one there that will tell you they don’t know and trust him. especially those that have touched him or looked into his eyes. Each one is prepared to be a “Little John” to his “Robin of Lochsley”!(Sorry, I’m an incurable romantic.-
)
It’s not your imagination yardarm. We all see the same thing!
Sorry, I was a bit foolish I guess, eh?
Not silly at all. We all feel the same. ☺
Yardarm, you are never foolish.
Thanks for not laughing at my ‘hard shell’.
Definitely! i believe there’s enough love to power him to November and through his second term. I’ve always believed there are more people who love him than hate him. It’s the love that’s so puzzling (and frightening) to his opponents.
oh me too yardarm- its the real deal- the love & admiration in the faces of these crowds for POTUS.
And as Love Is All There Is, we are in synch with the right man at a most fascinating time in history!
Rafalca Romney has a twitter account: https://twitter.com/RafalcaRomney
Flippin’ hilarous!!
We follow each other!
LL, I’ve been followed by some strange things in my life …. but never a horse
Rafalca is into liberal politics!!! Wonder if they know about this, the Romneys. Love the slogan “Dancing for Romney so you don’t have to”
And this riotous link that Rafalca provides

Crowd now chanting “Obama!”
Tweety just had two ardent teabaggers on and they are some real scary fools. They were perched on their chairs like birds-o-prey, with unblinking eyes and penetrating stares.
Man Dad once said, “Son, if it doesn’t blink;it doesn’t think.” I never understood that until now. The teabaggers are like hungry owls!
I fast-forward through tea partiers when Tweety has them on.
I know what they’re going to say, not worth the aggravation. Especially tonight, when I’m looking forward to Go Gabby, Go. (I’m on west coast, and imagine most of her performance will be aired on NBC in about 5 hours from now.)
Owls look gorgeous ya, hungry or not. For me these scums look like hyenas with their snarling faces and their mean natures.
Okay. I ain’t mad at owls. Predatory natures of some animals are a bit off-putting, eh?
This teacher introducing POTUS is doing a fine job of hitting the President’s many successes. OH heres he comes!! yay
I just love how he always says ” Its good to be in…..” He always sounds genuine and just the tone of his voice is so pitch perfect when he says it.
Gabby Douglas won the all around competition!
Why is Pew interviewing 13% more Democrats, per Greg Sergent!
it would be helpful if you completed this sentence. what are you talking about?
The Pew poll had a D+11 spread. Accurate? Hard to say.
I was thinking, maybe it was because of OFA biter registration efforts, it next month they will switch the Party ID Percentage to favor GOP!
I’m going to have to read the Pew poll and see if there’s a rationale for the high Dem ID. hell, I might email them.
I was loving the photos—-the cutie pie baby with the huge red flower headband—–and the wildly enthusiastic crowd—-familiar but still pretty amazing and reassuring. Until I got to the New Beginnings camp identifier. Then I was just sad. You can read about the “miracles” (trickery) happening there—–how on one of the first days after this church opened its doors the paralyzed guy got our of his wheelchair and walked for the first time!—–and right in front of the TV cameras!!! You can learn the secrets of how this church promises to heal “all infirmities and sicknesses”—-for the bargain price of $12.95 for the good pastor’s book, drastically reduced from reg. price of $24.95——-or the CD set for $29.95, reduced from $49.95. Or if these aren’t sufficient, there’s a long, long list of CD selections which promises to cure what ails you—-and take your money. Taking advantage of people.

I prefer the ACA dotster. I don’t pray for miracles. I pray for good doctors!
Yes, dotster, I thought that baby girl looks just edible! You know the kind of baby you just can’t stop kissing on those gorgeous cheeks! And when they laugh, you kiss them more!
Okay, this is one of the cutest Rally Babies yet. What a chunky, smiley, happy little cherub! I see parents are acting very strategically now — they’re putting the biggest bows/flowers/hats on their babies’ heads that they can in order to get PBO’s attention. Too cute!
I ‘love’ her, PJ! My first reaction when I saw her was ‘I could take that little sweetie home anytime’. Of course as soon as I thought it I realized it wasn’t the thing to say aloud in today’s climate when we have to be so careful of our children.
I know! Just cute as a button, and we know your heart is in the right place.
Let’s bombard Romney : ‘YOU put up or shut up. Release the taxes’. Romney is an idiot to have issued the challenge in those terms – too easy to hit back at him.
The President seems to be rolling along in a natural ‘professorial’ way.
I love it. Nobody listening will leave without understanding what the choices are going into this election.
ohhhhh myyyyy…that first pic….what an adorable baby could just kisssssss all over her fat cheeks….i loveeeee it,,,
I hope I am wrong but am starting to worry that Mitt Romney is a SICK man that needs professional help for his lying. When I watched Rachel Maddow last night & she pointed out how long he’s been lying, about the same things regarding his taxes, I was shocked.
Yup. She did a good job. But neither she nor the dem guy she had on explain how the MA dems lost their case to the elections board about his residency. How did the fucker get away with it after openly admitting that he lied ? Was the elections board stacked with rethugs ?
OMG, look at that beautiful little chubby cheeked baby! No website does it better with these pictures. Please keep it up.
DAMN!
God bless you, Leesburg. God bless you, Mr. President! Suh-weet!
Woohooooooo! That was a FIRED UP speech and a FIRED UP crowd!
favorite phrase in this speech: “The Romney Middle Class Tax Hike!!” hahahahahahhahahahhahhahhahahhhahaha!!! pin it on him PBO! pin it on that sucka!!!!
the trickle-down-fairy-dust tax cut plan–perfect take down!
hahahahaha…Fairy Dust tax cut plan…..love love that
UH-OH…SHIT…
JUST IN: @DanaBashCNN receives a new statement from @SenatorReid’s office, saying Senator #Reid has a “credible source.” #Romney
Oh Mittens, Mittens. You can’t even participate in your wife’s “sport”. Harry was a boxer.
Getting “interestinger” and “interestinger”.
You know what? Methinks since Dana divorced John King, her views seem to be changing….perhaps that was a huge source of tension in the marriage for all you know. Check this out:
I was just reading that. Hmmmmm. So John King and David Gergen have paired up to defend Bain and Willard/Bain, as if their lives depended on it. And now King’s divorced wife, Dana, has a “credible source” on the Reid accusation. I’m wondering if her source was an unwilling, unwitting ex-spouse, something he told her once upon a time. And she’s making a power play, in more ways than one. Inter-esting. We shall see. I don’t think she’d blab that she had a credible source unless she could name him/her if need be.
And unbelievable of CNN to allow Gergen to defend Bain to the death, giving his supposed objective opinion, when he is admittedly on the payroll of Bain enterprises.
Wow, Hopefruit, you mean Dana divorced John King already??? They have a young baby don’t they?
They’ve been divorced for a year or longer. The marital bliss did not last long. And —–not surprising. Who in their right mind would want to be married to race-obsessed John King???
Hmmm I didn’t think they were married that long! But not surprised – John King is pretentious little shit
Yes he is! I will never, ever forget that interview he did with Dick Cheney shortly after the inauguration, on his new show on Sunday mornings. Cheney sat there spitting out lie after lie about our President and King just half-smiled and nodded in agreement. I turned the tv off before the interview ended; I have not watched CNN since – 3+ years. I don’t miss it. I have been active on several blogs before and since then and have read and seen how others have slowly but persistently started calling CNN out for what they really are, especially people like John King.
Talk about media-walltstreet corrupt nepotism. No wonder these guyz kiss mittbot’s a$$ so vigorously.
Willard ain’t ready for this.
And every little piece of this story WILL be covered because this is all our media is good for: he said, she said, anonymous sources, etc.
at the end of there, there was an older gentleman in a blue baseball cap signing to PBO on the rope line. the guy was signing away and PBO was nodding, then I think he briefly signed back.
That baby looks like she’ll grow up to have a huge personality!! Right now she’s very huggable!
Totally agree – I had this overwhelming urge to reach out and hug her!
You’re on fire ut. RT’ing every one of them. I am going to land up in twitter jail.
The plot thickens. Don’t mess with Harry Reid. He speaks softly but does not condone BS. I notice the Romney camp isn’t pushing back hard and McCain has been silent.
I believe that the source is either McCain’s 08 vetting team (who probably revealed that info to someone at that time, 4 yrs ago), or John King of CNN to his then wife Dana (unwittingly).
Interesting, df. Both, likely.
O-B-AMA–Barack Obama ALL THE WAY!!!!
B-I-DEN–Joe Biden and he are GOING TO WIN!!!!
MSNBC (is that still their name? didn’t they drop the “MS” affiliation?) is virtually alone in covering the voter “poll-tax” suppression outrage.
Congress is out for 5 weeks, Romney is a disaster of his own making, etc.; the MSM really has no excuse for not investigating who will be eligible to vote in November.
Today I stumbled upon @NABJdigital (National Association of Black Journalists) which was live-tweeting from the UNITY Convention
(UNITY: Journalists, Inc. is a coalition of the four alliances, the Asian American Journalists Association, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, the Native American Journalists Association and the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association) being held in Las Vegas now, and was alarmed by the situation facing our First Citizens (Native Americans):
(I don’t know who the Trahant is that the tweeter referenced, but assume it’s someone with first hand experience of Native Americans in Idaho).
I hope the President and DOJ calls out the national guard to enforce voting rights and prevent the disenfranchisement of people trying to vote.
I also think Fridays jobs report ain’t going to be that bad. Otherwise, the FED would have acted!
He’ll have better luck running through hell wearing gasoline soaked skivvies!
Damn straight, sailor!!!!
Aye. Mark it well, Lootenant.
Still laughing 2 hours later!!!!
But Dana Bash has a credible source that says Reid has a credible source.
Ohhh!
Obama’s app — a grassroots organizing tool and voting rights guide rolled into a sleek new app — is currently the 21st most downloaded app. Mitt Romney’s app — which notifies users as soon as he picks a running mate is also among the top apps, clocking in at 54th.
54th???
It’s like those empty olympics seats and the fake twitter followers, jovie. Wanna bet mittbot’s corporate buddies are buying up his app by tons just to prop him up.
And yet he is still losing to ‘plebes’. Hilarious.
Did anyone beside me catch Michael Dyson on the Ed were he was talking about what some black people were saying about Gabby Douglas hair. I can not believe what I was hearing, here this young black girl have accomplish something great and all black people can talk about is Gabby’s hair. What the hell is wrong with some people? I see nothing wrong with her hair. As a black American I am dam proud of Miss Douglas and the idiots on tweeter complaining about Douglas hair can go kiss a donkey behind.
Dyson should not give these ignorant folks national attention. The majority of Black people are thrilled and very supportive of Gabby and don’t give two farts about her hair. There are ALWAYS ignorant people who will make stupid comments, regardless, which is why I’m surprised that Dyson featured those ignoramuses (who should be ignored) on his show .
What exactly was wrong with Gabby Douglas’ hair? What does her hair have to do with sports? What’s happened to Michael Dyson? He should be ashamed to stoop this low by giving shallow black folks a megaphone to trivialize Gabby’s historic achievements at the Olympics.
Exactly, by focusing on some random tweets or postings on anonymous blogs, what does he really think he’s accomplishing here?
I agree. He shouldn’t have discussed it. Sometimes tweets are given more attention than is needed. Many people should be ignored not retweeted.
Only have so much time for TV, and usually don’t catch the Ed Show. (And won’t tonight, for sure, since Gabby and team will be on.)
But, WTF? You look at the impossible feats that world-class gymnasts perform, and you want to criticize their *hair*?
Plus, she’s a teenager, for God’s sake. How many of us would like our high school photos up for ridicule?
What are they commenting that is wrong with her hair?
Plus, she’s a teenager, for God’s sake. How many of us would like our high school photos up for ridicule?
THIS!!! Some people are just petty and shallow. Haters gonna hate!
Gabby is beautiful, her hair is beautiful. That is all.
THIS Anniebella. She is only 16. I would not care if she hadany hair at all. She has accomplished something major that none of the folks who are criticizing her could ever accomplish. She will have enough money to do whatever she want with her hair if she chooses to do so after this. I am soooo proud of her.
wow, small people for sure. I think attacking a teen age girl ought to be off limits period.. but to attack her for such nonsense after she’s accomplished so much- is the epitomy of small mean people.
I missed it. What are they saying about her hair? And why are they talking about her hair?????? Wow—-missing the point—–by a huge margin. Her hair is exactly like all the other 100′s of gymnasts’ hair——pulled back in a pony tail with multiple barrettes and—-do they still call them bobby pins?—-holding every hair in place as they twist and turn in the wind. Some people are too shallow, can’t see the forest for the trees.
Unbelievable. I caught some of her acts here via some sports channel and she was fantastic.
Peeps from US should hammer dyson for such stupidity. Call his office and complain directly.
I would like to see who is talking about her hair. No one gives a rats ass. She is an amazing young lady, is talented and has a personality that could light up a room.
I am glad I missed that segment. Somethings are not worth giving a voice and this was one of them. That is why I can hardly wait for Ed to come back. And that says a lot because I couldn’t stand Ed given his history telling folks not to vote in 2010.
Dana Bash, Sam Stein and Howard Fineman have Sources, credible Witnesses and Dogs and Ponies, that say Reid has Credible Sources that says Robney is a Liar about His taxes.
And this took that long to INVESTIGATE?
Huh? On what level does this make any sense? Does R-money think this makes him look like a tough guy, when he actually looks like a total idiot.
Corn is snarking here, jackie.
What willard is TRYING to say is…”It’s Time for me TO PUT UP OR SHUTHEFUCKUP.”
Jovie, I would not put Harry Reid in the same category as Howard Fineman and Sam Stein.
Does Reid habitually spread rumors citing “sources?” No he doesn’t. I believe he DOES have a credible source, and that source is John McCain’s vetting team (accountants and tax lawyers from 2008).
Luckily, it was a Joke, sarcasm, Satire etc.
LOL!
Thanks for clarifying. LOL!
Also, this:
I am waiting for a F-35 to Strafe Robneys sorry ass!
As I just informed the dude ….
lolol wait. . . did that really happen?
Just saw on twitter that President Obama and I are exactly alike. We both worked at Dairy Queen in high school! Footlongs and hot fudge sundaes were big at my Queen. And I found out recently that I have not lost my talent for placing that little curly q at the top of the cones! Impressive! Wonder if President Obama has also retained that special skill! Bet he has!
He worked at Baskin Robbins. But I worked at Dairy Queen but I think you were better at it than me.
Sherri Shepherd tweeted about it yesterday. Her followers begged her not to give it any air time on The View.
I agree that this should not become the “story” NOW. The child has won a hard earned and historic victory on so many levels (not just as a first AA, but as first US medalist in women’s individual all around AND Team), and that should be the story, not what some ignorant folks are saying about her hair.
I do recall some unkind and ignorant remarks being made about gymnast Shaun Johnson being “too thick” or “too fat” during the 2008 Olympics, so there are always a bunch of resentful and ignorant folks making comments. These folks should be dismissed.
For pete’s sake what was wrong with Gabby Douglas hair. These people who have nothing better to do then criticize that young girl are all a bunch of S.O.B. Forgive my English. Bravo to Gabby
My daughter was at the campaign in Orlando today. This event was scheduled prior to the Colorado shooting which was cancelled. She was waited a little over three hours before she got in. While waiting she kept texting me.
She had a wonderful time and was close enough to see the President and take pictures. Unfortunately she did not get a chance to shake his hand as everyone wanted to.
About the baby above, she said she saw this baby being passed overhead and people was actually lifting the baby toward the President. The parents were two to three feet behind her and they were shouting “pass the baby to the President” . . . it was hilarious.
She said the President is very handsome and that smile really is addictive!
Very cool!
That is the cutest baby – that smile! She knows she’s in the middle of something great and exciting. What a doll!
Oh dear…Lawrence is not playing tonight either.
After his speech, he surveyed the scene, couldn’t find a way down and then just hopped off the runway. Cute to see a line of Secret Service agents hopping down after him. He’s never at a loss to solve problems.
OMG, that little baby is SUPER DUPER CUTE!!! Phone banked tonight and had an old man say that the only thing PBO has done was save some cars with messed up batteries. I laughed at him!! Right in his ear! He was nice though and he ended the call by saying we have different opinions and it was nice talking to you. I was still laughing when I said bye.
Sorry folks computer misfire. this remark was about Gabby’s hair.
Willard hired a PR firm to clean up his Bain Mess. the woman is the one who worked with BP in attempts to recover it’s image after the oil spill. she also worked for Bush in PR with her buddy Dan Senor.
Willard is such a fucking shit. {{SMH}} why is he such a loser?
that’s a beaut, Bobfr!!!!
thanks!!
That that worked so well with BP, didn’t it Lisa? Hercules himself can’t clean up R-money’s mess.
I know right?! his campaign is like Painting By Numbers. No talent, no soul. that’s how he acts, like ’1+1=2, so why the fuck isn’t everything going the way I want?!’ robotic toolbag!!!
not sure how a PR firm can help. Either Romney was the CEO and was paid for the work he performed or he wasn’t and deliberately lied to the SEC.
what a great enthusiastic crowd. mittbot can never have one like this.
I am glad that harry reid is sticking the shiv into willard’s lying guts making him go still crazier. I am shocked that this guy got away with his tax-return bs for so long. It took a gutsy black man finally to expose this unethical money grabber.

there is something deeply wrong with republicans and these changes in voting laws. how can they look themselves in the mirror? they don’t care how they win, whether by hook or by crook. dirty bastards. I’m telling you, these are the last dying gasps of the GOP. They will not stand to fight another day. they’ve gone too far. it’s like they’ve lost their humanity. now they are just crass, greedy, base, core-less bastards.
Couldn’t agree more, Lisa. At today’s summary hearing in the PA Commonwealth Court, it was obvious the Republicans aren’t even trying anymore. The argument comes down to ” we’re making life difficult for voters because we can.” Too bad if it hurts people.
Same thing in Florida, the smoking gun is Jim Greer firmer GOP chair in Florida said, that the voter I’d law was to disenfranchise AA!
Jackie, have you seen this? ACLU’s blog about Voter ID Day 7: Summing it up
http://www.aclupa.blogspot.com/
The plot thickens.
who knew I could learn something from The Cow?! “poll watchers”? say what now? people hired to intimidate voters so they don’t vote at the polls? Fricking repukes. disgusting creatures.
Now, folks are just clowning Willard on the tax returns. Folks are going all in on the ‘ I don’t know if he beats his wife’ accusation.
Lawrence O just said in the first minute of his show:
IS MITT ROMNEY HIDING A FELONY ON HIS TAX RETURNS?
bwa ha ha ha ha ha
there’s no way to answer these type of questions…UNLESS HE RELEASES THE TAX RETURNS.
hee hee hee
HI Everyone!
Kal Penn was on Lawry. he’s very smart, very good spokesperson. loved it!
Kalpenkumar, will you marry me? I am in love with your brains.
Ummmmm?
Speaker Boner: Obama has never had a real Job, for Christ sakes!
First of all, that is a Canard, and B, is Boner going to start crying again?
Lisa: Orange Julius aka Limp Boner has never been sober a day in his life. ………. fuck off Bonehead! PBO works harder than you do, any day. Didn’t you just start your 5 week vacation? Vacation from what? Not passing any bills? Not providing legislation for any jobs? Vacation from what? your one week on, one week off schedule? Go screw yourself, you nasty old orange freak!
Lol! That would be a lively email!
So a job in congress in not a real job.? That would explain the useless waste of space Boehner has been as speaker.
It’s clear John Boehner’s brain has been fried from those tans.
Mr. Tax Evasion is so dumb. {{SMH}}
He will not release them, because the People who give Him Dough, are doing the same evading, or worse. And they also want their tax cuts… This would foil everything, so – here 10 million more dollars, now shut up Willard. LOL!
have I said how very much i despise WIllard Bitch Romney and the repukes who pull his strings.
No, but it’s evident. I told my mom I dislike Him more than Palin!

I sooooo want McCain to crash and burn with Mitt. We all know he can’t stand Mitt. He’s such a hypocrite.
Agree, meta!
Can just imagine what Senator Reid could do to McCain on this one ….
Hey Chipstar! Did you know you’re at the top of the list for a Gold Medal in the OFA Summer Grassroots Challenge?! Donna is 3rd!! And i’m in the Silver category.
http://www.barackobama.com/Summer-Grassroots-Challenge
Wooohooooot!!
META! me and YOU, just posted the same thing at the same time stamp! WE should get a medal for that!
HA! We must have both checked our email at the same time. Glad to see you’re in the heat with us!
I know, and I see a few fellow TODObots who need to come on over at least to silver, then all of us on to Gold! But I just read through the official rules, and am kinda sad, coz I don’t have Twitter and it says PBO will send out 3 Tweets to 3 people on Twitter… Then it goes on to say how the final winners will be picked, and notified. But I read it all 2x, and still don’t see what the prize is! Am I just too tired or something? (I don’t really care, actually, what the prize is, but it would be cool to have my image used in the campaign if they want!)
I think the prize is a signed tweet from PBO! LOLz.
Go Chica!!
Go Donna!!
Go Meta!!
EVERYONE who has grassroots fundraisers. I’m sorry I don’t have any extra this week. But I volunteer, make calls and do voter registration.
YAY TODTeam!
woohoo. Go chips. Go meta. Go donna.
So, how fun! OFA just launched a medal placing for FR pages, and I am delighted to see TOD (YOU CHIPSTICKS) is leading by a wide margin with 29 gold, not far behind her is our own DD4O, with 17 gold… Very proud to say, I have placed (lower) in silver, with 4 donations, but we all know that will change, right?! I only need three more to get into the Gold Medal winners column! Anyone like to give me a hand up!? WooHoo!
Go Pamela.
Now Sam stein of HP, and Anderson Cooper are all super outraged that Reid could make a wild accusation without first proving anything….Sam Stein that has pushed so many nasty and false rumors about our President from “unnamed sources” or “anonymous WH officials” in the course of the last 3 years…now he’s so concerned about Reid’s statement?
What’s so wild about the accusation? It’s perfectly credible! The fact that they’d rather shoot the messenger speaks to their own crass commitments.
They are reading their Blackberry Emails again, from RNC!
Seriously.
