The president finally said something I actually believe:

"You will see me working as hard as I’ve ever worked..."

Hope and change have evolved into fair shots. There's nothing the gov't can do to impose fair shots,people have to do it themselves by some sort of job know how.How does someone staying up all night playing video games ensure themselves a fair shot?

Obama's supporters interpret fair shots as an increase in their handout checks.

It's not fair when Mooch and he eat Kobe beef while I don't. There I said it

For 'everybody', read: the Knucklehead vote.

His story about the waiters sick mother caused me to regurgitate in my mouth.

Whenever a politician says, "It's not about ........," you can bet that it is.

The people "not getting a fair shot" are displaced private sector workers and struggling or former small businesspeople. Obama put them where they are now. I don't think he's referring to them when he talks about "fairness", either.

Power, perks, and winning. That's exactly what it's about. How many other President's have you heard bring up the 'perks' as often as these two? Remember their first 'date'? Took Air Force One on a little ride to New York courtesy of the taxpayer. You can bet they are milking it for all it's worth.

How is it possible for the Unaffordable Care Act to have given the waiter's mother the coverage she needed? It hasn't even taken effect yet. Unless she joined a state's high risk coverage pool prior to her stroke, and THEN received treatment she wasn't eligible to receive under Medicare, this story simply IS NOT POSSIBLE.

A "fair shot" for everyone...hmmm, maybe that's why they have all those recently acquired bullets...so they can enforce their "fair shot" strategy. The sheeple should look at Chavez's Venezuela to see what can happen when someone "spreads the wealth around." Tanks in the street, fixed elections, a government squandering the wealth and resouces of a country and providing the populace with deprivation and untold suffering. A fool's paradise.

"Me and Mooch will only fire up our respective jets 6 or 7 times if I am re-elected". "Let's see. Jay-Z and Beyonce versus trying to resolve the debt crisis...Hey Mooch, we're off to Hollywood again."

He "milks" everything for what it's worth. And he is doing it for the power and the perks and the winning. Nothing more. He is despicable. and he gets distracted because he's afraid of Michelle. Sweet. Just what we need in a fearless leader.

"Obama: This election is not
about ‘clinging on to an office’".

Me thinks thou protesteth too much!

How the heck does he get off saying he wants everyone to have a "fair shot". As far as I know the USA gives everyone a fair shot without his interference. Go to school, graduate, show up to work on time, work hard, and you have a chance to succeed.

Obama needs another 4 years just to shred the documents and erase the hard drives.

H's just given us his number one goal: "it's about can we sustain...the sense that... this country... allows everybody to get a fair shot".
Since he believes it's presently just a "sense" of social justice (and not the real deal), he thinks we need him to lead us to the enlightened country that America could be---where we all start out equal AGAIN through redistribution.
He said exactly what he means and that's what he intends to do. This is the same pattern as "fundamentally change this country."
Some just refuse to listen.

This isn't a news article, it's a press release with a byline. Not one scintilla of journalism happening here.

I do believe everybody has a fair shot. We all have access to education. It's what's inside US that makes the differences in our lives, and no gov't intrusion or mandates can ever equalize that.

The White House
November 5, 2012
81 p. m. EST

The President:

Good evening.

When I assumed office in January 2009, I swore an oath to preserve, protect, and defend my presidency

Unfortunately, Rasmussen has Romney winning 45 states tomorrow, prompting Secretary Napolitano to raise the Republican Takeover Threat Level to ''Vermilion.''

Fortunately, our Living Constitution authorizes the president, with Senate approval, to declare a national emergency and cling to office by postponing elections and declaring martial law.

That resolution passed the Upper Chamber moments ago by what sounded to Senator Reid like a two-thirds voice vote.

The Posse Comitatus Act prohibits American troops from being deployed on American soil. Instead, Homeland Security’s new Civilian National Security Force will assume responsibility for keeping the peace.

Elections will be held when the electorate comes to its senses. At that time, a new FOIA protocol will require citizens to mark and sign their ballots before witnesses, the information becoming part of the public record. Your friends, relatives, neighbors, and union thugs should know if you voted the way they wanted you to or the way you said you would.

In addition, the right of absentee voters to cast ballots in numbers disproportionate to their existence will continue to be protected.

I know things look bleak now, but we can postpone our fiscal reckoning until most of us are dead and gone. However, we must stop gazing longingly at the shore as riptides pull us out to sea

Yesterday, after burgers and fries on the Truman Balcony with Michelle, I thought about Churchill’s ''sunlit uplands'' metaphor. Off in the distance and deep into my second term, I could almost discern the overcast lowlands where our country’s future really lies.

My fellow Americans, I need your apathy if I’m to get us there.

Inshallah, and may God help America.

Sorry. That's 81 p. m. EST

Message to Zippy:

This election is about saving America from YOU, sport!

Obama, the bitterest clinger of them all.
Holdering on with guns and his Marxist religion.

I have an Amen for that, #24.

''Fair shot'' = Reparations. Is, and always has been.

I thought we couln't use phrases like 'fair shot' after Sarah was nearly imprisoned for ' targeted districts'.

We spend more on the Obama Family than England spends on their Royal Family. Billion + a year.

The only fair shot comes when sperm meets egg; from then you're facing uncertainty.

And today, everyone's wearily taking notice that Hugo Chavez somehow, someway pulled his electoral chestnuts out of the fire. Tanks in the streets now, but he did it. If you want it bad enough...

''It's not who votes. It's who counts the votes.''
--- Josef Stalin

No---it is about clinging to the various planes, the vacations, the basketball pick ups with celebs, the ADULATION!

It is truly about "clinging on to an office" for this loser. He's holding on with white knuckles (you'll pardon the pun -- are there black knuckles?).

I realize this article was calculated and crafted to tug at my heartstrings. Instead, it stimulated my gag reflex.

BHO “a loose cannon?” Not quite! More like a loose hydrogen bomb!

4 years later and now barry is th Bitter Clinger.

who's supposed to make sure you get a fair shot? Answer: your parents. Who's supposed to make sure the elderly are taken care of? Answer: their kids. Who's supposed to protect the Constitution and our borders, build infrastructure and otherwise stay out of the way? Answer: The federal government.

Liberalism is all about seizing power by any necessary means. Nothing else. Fairness and social justice are excuses, not objectives.

Sagman, that was just precious. I will not even attempt to add anything.

Obama is right, this election is not about clinging to an office. It is a contest between the vision in which extensive parts of our lives are controlled by government versus a vision in which we have equality before the law and the opportunities that freedom to pursue a chosen career, to pursue business success, to speak freely, and to believe as one sees fit will give citizens. You can guess which vision will give people a fair shot.

I had a friend years ago, married, who told me he had to meet some younger girl for lunch to discuss a graphics art project. His words at the time were "It's not like it's a date".

I replied "Who asked?"

To Obama I have the same reply... "Who asked?".

#28, for more info see this report:

"Obama family 'costs taxpayers $1.4BILLION per year' (that's 20 times more expensive than British Royal Family)"

People were still adding comments, as of yesterday, Oct 7.

I personally take cheer in seeing the dumb Hollywood doters empty their wallets. Come to think of it, Barbara of the Streisand has been awfully quiet this election and where is Ophra the Waddler?

Of course he's clinging. And if he isn't, she sure as heck is. They'll be hanging on for dear life even after the inauguration. Waaaaawaaaaaaawaaaaaa!

Publicly expressing his "clinging" thought is one of the few transparent things this person has ever done. He gives himself away from time to time.

This is Obama's way of saying, "Whatever the results, I will abide by the will of the people."

Clinging to office is always what the left is about. They destroy a society but prepare a cushy bed for the elites. Always. Everywhere. For all time.

Anyone dumb enough to truely believe Obama - that this election isn't about wielding and clinging to power (and soaking up more perks) is too dumb to understand half the words in his teleprompted sentences. One thing you can count on is that Obama either means or will deliver exactly the opposite of what he says.

In a sense obama is correct. It's all the free bennies that go with the office of president.

There's that word again -- "clinging", once derogatorily used for average Americans and their religion and guns.

How about clinging to an empty chair, Barack.

They must realize that the perception is rampant that for The Wun it IS about power, perks, and winning.

Note that the "fair share" has been tidied up to "fair shot." That Freudian slip should in itself cost him the election.

So, buried in this press release/article we find yet another excuse for Obama's dismal debate performance (it was his anniversary) and yet another life miraculously "saved" only because of Obamacare.

How dumb does he think we are?

HEY! How's about a courtesy Barf Alert?

This is a brilliant article by a writer who knows how to slip by his 'editors' (censors.)
Keep in mind that 'the resonant One' is speaking to his backers:

'” In a private room at a restaurant he did not name, Obama said they were served by a “wonderful young waiter,” ...“professional, very unobtrusive,” ...
they were “milking it for all that it was worth....” '

The ideal constituent.

Reminds me of what that Southern Gentleman, Bill Clinton (/s), said about who would have been waiting tables.

He doesn't want the office, he wants the perks!

If you want a view of the next four years, look at what has just taken place in Venezuela.

This run to socialism has to be stopped.

You can't pry this job out of my cold heartless fingers...I swear I'll never leave!

Let's hear more of the story about Obama's "waiter's mother."

No need to identify the alleged waiter. A few numerical details would suffice to help us appreciate how, exactly, "ObamaCare" was the only thing standing between life and death for the alleged mother.

Wow. He's out there grubbing for money in L.A. Could this mean that maybe California is *leaning red*?

In today's world, I'm not sure that sending your children to school to get an education is going to work. Maybe if you find a financial way to send them to private schools. After all, in the public schools all they are going to get is indoctrination, not education.

The Romanoffs, Nicolae Ceaușescu, Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro . . .

This man's personal stories just turn my stomach.

whinerman doth protest too much?

This is all about clinging to power and keeping the perks for Mrs. Mooch! Tell the waiter that the Affordable Care Act will result in his mother's death when the death panel sees she had a stroke - they won't authorize any further treatment.

Whinerman, Spinnerman
Says what nobody else can..

Shut up, Barry. You putz.

Everybody gets a fair shot at WHAT?

How nice of Obie to be so sensitive and touchy feelie about things now. Now hit the road, Obie (Jack).
