Obama Flying to LA to
Reassure Hollywood Donors

Hollywood Reporter, by Tina Daunt

The president arrives for a star-studded concert and high-roller dinner on Sunday amid "shock" in Hollywood over his Denver debate performance. President Barack Obama returns to Los Angeles Sunday for a star-bedecked celebrity concert and fundraising dinner. In the wake of his Denver debate troubles, however, the long scheduled visit has acquired another, equally urgent purpose—reassuring his Hollywood supporters that he's fighting to win the race and he's poised for a comeback in the next televised forum with former Gov. Mitt Romney. From the now iconic dinner at George Clooney’s house

Is the Hollywood crowd paying for this trip?

SNL mocked him pretty good last night with their debate sketch. They showed him drifting off from the altitude, worrying about what to get Michelle for their anniversary from the gift shop while Romney was going over his ''40 points to grow the economy.'' Then, Romney took credit for killing Bin Laden.

Aren't all his Hollywood pals in Venezuela campaigning for Chavez? Maybe he should divert to Caracas.

An interesting side to the 181 milliom in donations to Obama is no matter what happens in the election he gets to keep eighty percent for his own. A multi milliomair just like most of the poor democrats.

I'm puzzled. A huge industry has been built to make a small group of people look convincingly like they have abilities and accomplishments they'll never have. It templates perfectly not only with Obama's campaign, but with his whole life.

So why the agita, Hollywood?

#2: Why doesn't Stinky do joint appearances before general audiences with Dogg? Or have him make TV ads?

#11: Stinky pays a full airline-ticket price when he does campaign travel [read: the part of a trip his campaign can't manage to paint as "official business"]. Well, yeah, he gets a whole 747, crew, stewards, and so on, but hey, he works hard for us. Ahem.

Obama, you're looking for love in all the wrong places
Where your walk it's always shadow
Conversation always shallow
When you're looking for reaction
When you're searching for direction
When you're scared of rejection
Or attack
You need the warmth of loving
When you're growing tired of seeing
A colourless reflection
Looking back

I wonder if any of the usual Hollywood suspects are having second thoughts on Obama's non existent debating skills yet? Clooney and the rest of the actor klan's will still faun over this Obama phony till hell freezes over?

Hollywood paying for his trip? Surely you jest.

We be paying for his trip.

As for that meeting in BH, only 30 or so minutes are allowed for that if you go by the published street closings. Otherwise he'd be shredded before he got to his psychofans at the theater.

Street closures revealed he is probably spending the night in Century City.

These events were all sold out BEFORE the debate.
In Beverly Hills after debate- Obama voters were turning.
$5 a gallon gas and shuttered stations abound in the Land of the Car.
People are getting sick and tired of not being able to go out because the Huckster in Chief is sucking up more funds from his sychophants.

No bama has been exposed as the BernieMadoff of politics. Like Clint Eastwood said, he's the biggest hoax ever perpetrated on America. Madoff's investors disappeared overnight. Maybe, no bama is worried that his will too.

Turkey as the trip-wire for NATO engagement with Syria, foreign drones flying into Israel, PM fizzling in Libya and Zero's focus is flying to LA to reassure some Hollywood flakes...what about assuring our allies in Europe, Israel, and the the Middle Eastern/NoAfrican countries we are dealing with, that the US is engaged...one flare up and gas prices will top $6 nation-wide...

The First Lady Michelle Obama told graduates from Nashville´s Martin Luther King Jr High School to carve their own path, work hard and show grit and determination at her commencement speech today. But little did she know that teachers and students at the Tennessee school, have shown more grit than most in dealing with the school´s run-down conditions. The school was honored to host Mrs Obama in the only high school graduation speech she will give this year. But it was no surprise the event was held off campus given the state of the school buildings

Obama admits he’s a socialist

You may be forgiven if you missed it during last week’s tsunami of scandals, but President Obama finally let slip that he is a socialist. Buried in the 17th paragraph of one of those mewling New York Times pieces on the woes of Obama — can we start calling him Woe-bama yet? — appeared these two words: “going Bulworth.” Obama himself, the Times explained, has been “longingly” telling his inner circle that what he’d really like to do is what Sen. Jay Bulworth, played by Warren Beatty in his 1998 movie “Bulworth,” did: to go public as

"Can you see in your mind´s eye a way that this might not have been political, that this was a misguided stupid way to sort, but that they didn´t intend it to be some kind of political attempt to harass the Tea Party?"

Appearing on Sunday morning on ABC News’ This Week, White House Senior Adviser Dan Pfeiffer told a credulous George Stephanopoulos that the IRS’ targeting of conservative groups was “inexcusable,” and that the law with regard to the activity was “irrelevant.” “I can’t speak to the law here,” he said. “The law is irrelevant. The activity was outrageous and inexcusable, and it was stopped and it needs to be fixed so we ensure it never happens again.” When asked for clarification, Pfeiffer expounded: “What I mean is, whether it’s legal or illegal is not important to the fact

Appearing on CBS’ Face the Nation, White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said that it was “largely irrelevant” who edited the talking points the Obama administration trotted out in the aftermath of the terrorist attack in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. Host Bob Schieffer asked, “That was just a PR plan, to send out somebody who didn’t know anything about what had happened. Why did you do that? Why didn’t the Secretary of State come and tell us what they knew, and if they knew nothing, say ‘We don’t know yet?’ …. Why are you here today?

On Fox News Sunday this morning, White House spokesman Dan Pfeiffer was asked by Chris Wallace where in the White House President Obama was during the September 11, 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi that killed four Americans. “Question,” asked Wallace. “What did the President do the rest of that night to pursue Benghazi?” Pfeiffer answered, “Look, the President was kept up to date on this as it was happening the entire night, from the moment it started until the very end …. I recognize that there’s a series of conspiracy theories Republicans have been spinning about it

Non-deportation rate
drops — to 99.2 percent

The Homeland Security Department has granted legal status to 99.2 percent of all illegal immigrants who have applied under President Obama’s new non-deportation policy for young adults, according to the latest numbers released Friday. That’s a slight drop from the 99.5 percent approval rate reported last month. The policy, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, grants legal status to most illegal immigrants under the age of 31 who came to the U.S. before age 16 — usually brought by their parents. They are allowed to remain in the U.S. without fear of deportation, and are given work

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

Washington – Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-MO, issued a video statement Friday in response to reports that the Internal Revenue Service unfairly targeted conservative nonprofit groups. (Snip) “There’s a reason Lady Justice wears a blindfold in America. That is because in America, we don’t apply the law based on who you are, who you know, or what you believe. We apply the law equally.” “We should not only fire the head of the IRS, which has occurred, but we’ve got to go down the line and find every single person who had anything to do with this and make sure
