President Barack Obama rolled up his sleeves to help paint bookshelves at a run-down Washington school today to mark a National Day of Service, as Chelsea Clinton helped kick off his three-day inauguration celebration. The former first daughter spoke at a summit on the National Mall to urge people to participate in volunteer projects, saying there´s a chain of service that links generations of Americans from all across the country. Meanwhile, Obama, First Lady, Michelle Obama, and their daughters Malia and Sasha, joined 500 volunteers to spruce up Burrville Elementary School.

Michelle is wearing what looks like welder´s gloves and Barry in all his goofiness is wearing thin exam gloves.
He didn´t dare get paint on his hands lest he ruin his manicure.

Those gloves only had to be worn for about four camera clicks. Meanwhile did anybody actually listen to what Chelsea Gardiner had to say??

Three words: Colossally. Stoopit.

1. I know he´s in no way "up to" his day job, but sheesh, that is what he should spend his time on.

2. You can bet his deigning to appear [read: making a campaign stop to keep the LoFos on board] resulted in a huge net loss of productive volunteer hours. a. shut the place down for a Secret Service sweep; b. turn everything upside down for the day for a half-hour photo-op for Stinky; c. make a bunch of real volunteers stand around pointlessly wasting their time.

3. Waitaminnit: how is it that a D elementary school got all run down? With all the "it´s for the children" miasma in the air? With the $20,000-a-year per pupil spending in DC? With the superlative social milieu of DC´s residents?

4. FTA: The former first daughter spoke at a summit on the National Mall to urge people to participate in volunteer projects, saying there´s a chain of service that links generations of Americans from all across the country.

We at Shloss Veritas are wholly disgusted by and fed up with the Leftist collectivist myth of and lust for "the commune." Real achievement is individual, for the individual´s goals.

Run down Elementary school in DC? I don´t believe a word of it. Not one word.

How do you get your hands dirty from a proctologist glove except maybe from putting them on inside out after use. I think that guy needs to go get hisself a shot of bacteriolidgy eliminator..... Them rundown schools in DC has to be a hotbed of aids and bacteriologicalally enhanced black light evading evil twin flu viruses. He needs some Geritol quick!

National Day of Service has such a communist ring to it.

the average spending per student in DC is now around $30,000/year (getting close to the cost of going to Yale minus the room/board). The average pay per teacher is $90,000/year, and has gone up 5%.

hard to understand with those numbers how a school in DC can be described as "run-down". More apt phrase might have been "mismanaged", or "plundered"


Reply 14 - Posted by: heartsurgeon, 1/19/2013 3:22:41 PM     (No. 9126817)

you gotta read through this to believe it..
this is from the census bureau, and contains all sort of info about school expenditures

http://www2.census.gov/govs/school/10f33pub.pdf

if you read the DC school website, they basically don´t tell y ou the true about how much money they spend per student.

In actuality, the per student expenditures, and the teacher pay per student, is the highest in the country by a mile.

I know when I paint a cabinet I always wear a pair of Dockers and a dress shirt....../s

I`m sure this event now qualifies Chelsea to be a senator from New York. Let`s see, she `earned` a degree from Stanford in something or other, which is weird since she was hardly ever there - then she immediately got hired on Wall St. and paid 6-figures for a job she didn`t know how to do - then NBC hired her to do interviews, which mostly consisted of asking her parents `in depth` questions. Yah, I`d say she`s ready to be a senator.

Even as reports break about the size and scope of the National Security Agency’s vast data storage center in Utah, new details are emerging about a second massive NSA center in San Antonio, Texas. According to the Houston Chronicle, “Satellite and aerial imagery show that massive air conditioning units and backup generators have been added to the facility, which is now ringed by barbed-wire fencing. City permits and property tax records show that the complex has been dramatically expanded.” According to sources, the plant will supposedly translate intercepted communications from the NSA; the communications are then forwarded to Maryland

They may have headed to the ´Land of the Free´ for a better life, but a set of poignant black and white pictures illustrate the brutal hardships endured by immigrant families in 19th century New York. The images captured by Jacob A. Riis provide a window into the squalor, deprivation and poverty of a bygone age. The stark photos of sweat shops, shanty towns and slums provide an image of an unrecognisable city. For many immigrants the new life was a tough one- some of the streets where they had made their home

Issa subpoenas ObamaCare files

House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) subpoenaed documents from a controversial ObamaCare program on Friday after charging that the Obama administration had denied his request several times. Issa is seeking information on a federal attempt to boost nonprofit health plans, known as CO-OPs (consumer oriented and operated plans), which compete with traditional health insurance. The Affordable Care Act created a $3.4 billion federal loan program for CO-OPs that Republicans say might never be repaid because of some applicants´ financial troubles.

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:
