THE GIRLS ARE BEAUTIFUL…I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME THEY APPEARED WITH THEN SENATOR OBAMA…OUR FIRST COUPLE HAS TAKEN EVERY MOMENT TO ENJOY THEM…THEY GROW UP SO QUICKLY!
Whoever they are, they are despicable! I am absolutely certain that they do not speak for the vast majority of Black people they supposedly claim to lead.
They can’t claim to be Christian. Wonder how many pieces of silver trump paid them. No wonder young people don’t want to belong to organized churches.
Trump doesn’t even have 100 black folks in his crowds at his rallies. If it is true, that does not mean that he will get the black vote. By the way Trump better ask his racists supporters about that.
THE EVANGELICALS ARE BOUND BY THEIR CONSPIRACY THEORIES AND AFRAID OF THEIR OWN SHADOWS. THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT PERSECUTE OUR PRESIDENT AND DEGRADE MUSLIMS NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE…THIS REMINDS ME OF COLONIALISM…THE NATIVE AMERICANS AND THE JAPANESE DURING THE WAR. FRANKLY…SELF CONSUMED INDIVIDUALS CANNOT PRETEND TO BE CHRISTIANS IF THEY DON’T PUT ALL OF THEIR FAITH AND TRUST IN THE POWER OF GOD. I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED AT THESE ENDORSEMENTS DUE TO ONE FOUR LETTER WORD…’FEAR!’

That Baby Blue shirt POTUS was wearing while in South East Asia, last Weekend, as Lester Holt was reporting about the trip, I saw that on Nightly News. I thought POTUS looked great. I came back here at TOD and I didn’t see any photograph like that. Then I convinced myself that perhaps, I had imagined it. I did check out Google seeking past South East Asian Trips by Pres Obama and I couldn’t find what I was looking for. I searched again the next day. I couldn’t find it. Then I gave up. So Thank you Pete Souza. My eyes are very thankful to Mr. Souza.
Gorgeous daughters!! Thanks for sharing the pics, Chips, and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I’ll be forever grateful to you for sustaining TOD all these years and to NW for partnering with you to make this an even more special place - DAILY!!!

Pres Obama issues signing statement on Defense Bill. Calls Gitmo transfer restrictions unwarranted and a breach of separation of powers.

How many of We The People are knowledgeable on all the restrictive, destructive wicked activities by Congress since Jan 20th, 2009? My constant only beef.
So long as the GOPers are never made to own their destructive ways, they will Never stop these tactical political gamesmanship. Their actions Harm America.
Obama: Like many Americans, I was deeply disturbed by the footage of the fatal shooting of 17-yo Laquan McDonald. https://t.co/b97NYUrl7o

Like many Americans, I was deeply disturbed by the footage of the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald. This Thanksgiving, I ask everybody to keep those who’ve suffered tragic loss in our thoughts and prayers, and to be thankful for the overwhelming majority of men and women in uniform who protect our communities with honor. And I’m personally grateful to the people of my hometown for keeping protests peaceful.
Thanks Chips and Nerdy W. for all of the wonderful things that you both have put into this wonderful space for all of us in this beautiful TOD family to enjoy. May this eve of Thanksgiving be a joyful and blessed one for all of my TOD family.
Thanks to Pete Souza for covering our wonderful President. May Pete be so blessed in coming years to enjoy the joys of covering this great President and our First Family. We give thankfulness to All of the wonderful people who have worked so closely and faithfully for POTUS.
There are so many things that I will give thanks for, but I certainly want to give thanks for my Chips and TOD family. You all have been here when I needed an uplifting moment and goodness into my space. (((((((((((((Chips and my TOD Family))))))))))))))) HZ

Your thoughts?😡
What black religious leader in his or her right mind would endorse this monster?
NOONE WHO SINCERELY LOVES OR KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT JESUS CHRIST WOULD SUPPORT THIS RACIST…I GUESS YOU COULD CALL HIM OUR ‘LAST TRUMPET!
Whoever they are, they are despicable! I am absolutely certain that they do not speak for the vast majority of Black people they supposedly claim to lead.
They can’t claim to be Christian. Wonder how many pieces of silver trump paid them. No wonder young people don’t want to belong to organized churches.
Maybe he means religious leaders in black-face.
Perfect!
do you mind if I borrow yr phrase for a tweet?
Whoa! Be my guest!
Thanks. Tweet reply has been sent :)
I do not believe it. It maybe true, we will have to wait to see Monday.
Trump doesn’t even have 100 black folks in his crowds at his rallies. If it is true, that does not mean that he will get the black vote. By the way Trump better ask his racists supporters about that.
Trump knows the kkk don’t like black folks.
I am still waiting on the blockbuster info he got in HI about PBO’s birth certificate.
Items like this are purely designed to stir up controversy. Posting this is equivalent to posting a story about a three-headed man.
I think the posting on Rawanda was a chilling reminder of what hate and corruption can unleash in the fearful human soul. Those are my thoughts.

SUCH WONDERFUL EXAMPLES OF LOVE AND COMPASSION WE HAVE IN THE WHITEHOUSE!…:)

The food expert can smell what POTUS and Family are serving……. ;)
How magnanimous of this Greedy bast*rd.
At least with 19 separate complaints against this man. Seriously?
Chicago, seriously? When will this City clean Corruption out of their Gov?
So Trump and all the GOP christian candidates is were. Somewhere feeding the poor, the sick, the hungry.
The First Family serving dinner to the homeless and veterans. They have done so every year.
Thanks Roger Simon.
