Sarah Palin’s reality show scored huge ratings for its premiere, while the guardians of usage at the New Oxford American Dictionary awarded the former Alaska governor the higher-brow distinction of coining 2010′s “word of the year” — “refudiate” — via her Twitter account.
Sarah Palin has minted the word of the year.
The Elite take their pot-shots, they try to besmear.
What it means to refudiate
Is refuse and repudiate.
It’s clear to most folks, not the liberal ear.
Quote from the G20 summit is Seoul, South Korea Nov 11-12 2010. “With little being done to address the concerns presented before the summit, one has to wonder if the problems will be addressed or if the stalemate on these major financial issues will continue. ”
G20 did meet in Seoul, South Korea.
They all give Obama a squirt of urea.
Trade talks – forget it.
He still doesn’t get it
For printing more money is no panacea.
Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is known for sparring with White House reporters, making for what often seems like an antagonistic mood in the briefing room. But during President Obama’s trip to India, Gibbs assumed the role of press advocate and threatened to pull Obama out of bilateral talks with Indian Prime Minister Manmoham Singh because three U.S. reporters were blocked from covering the meeting. Indian officials would only let in five reporters into Hyderabad House in New Delhi instead of the agreed-upon eight. The Washington Post’s Scott Wilson—who was on White House pool duty today and filed the report for the White House press corps—wrote that “Gibbs announced loudly and persistently on steps of Hyderabad House that he would pull” President Obama out of the meeting “unless ‘the White House 8′ as we’ve come to be known, were all allowed in.” As the discussion continued, Gibbs grew more animated. “At one point, Gibbs literally had his foot lodged in the closing front door, asking if the Indian security officials pushing hard to shut it were going to break his foot,” Wilson continued. “More angry words ensued, and after Gibbs convinced them, through high volume and repetition, that he was serious about pulling [President Obama]” the press secretary had the security retinue’s full attention. And Gibbs’ intervention worked; the Indian officials eventually allowed the full American press delegation into the event, along with a larger group of Indian reporters. (Photo: AP)
Gibbs finally did get a foot in the door
that gave his 8 cohorts a seat on the floor.
The Indians were miffed.
Was Robert Gibbs piffed?
He did fight the Indians, It’s been done before.
NEW YORK (CBS) — After suffering a “shellacking” in the midterm elections, President Obama acknowledges what many have seen as his chief weakness – failing to sell the importance of several legislative milestones to the American people. “I think that’s a fair argument. I think that, over the course of two years we were so busy and so focused on getting a bunch of stuff done that, we stopped paying attention to the fact that leadership isn’t just legislation. That it’s a matter of persuading people. And giving them confidence and bringing them together. And setting a tone,” Mr. Obama told 60 Minutes’ Steve Kroft in an exclusive interview set to air Sunday. “Making an argument that people can understand,” Mr. Obama continued, “I think that we haven’t always been successful at that. And I take personal responsibility for that. And it’s something that I’ve got to examine carefully … as I go forward.”
Commander in Chief: “People don’t understand.
I’m trying to do what is best for our land.
I blame and complain
and I fail to explain:
Through the Mexican border comes much contraband.”
Proverbs 11:29 (King James Version) He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
What was President Barack Obama doing after his Democrat Party got a shellacking on Election Day? He got out of the country! 
Nov 5 2010 Obama left for India on a ten-day tour ending in South Korea, costing us taxpayers some $200 Million dollars a day! Obama was bringing an entourage of 3,000 people with him. Obama’s trip to India included a visit to Taj Mahal. A total of 40 jetliners hauled Obama, family, friends and staff. They rented the entire Taj Mahal Palace & Tower Hotel, all 570 rooms! He was even bringing his teleprompters with him!
This calls for a Limerick!
Obama skipped town, went away down to India
to teach those poor folks how to use multimedia.
Teleprompters in tow
prevents gaffes in a row.
With wasting like this we’ll inherit the wind – yeah.
There’re times to give honor, there’re times to salute.
But Obama knows neither, nor is he astute.
For he does not know
to behave, but to bow
and apologize much. Common sense? He’s a brute.
Since Nancy Pelosi took over the gavel
Was our economy quick to unravel.
She is more than bad,
The worst that we had.
We finally stopped contemplating our navel.
Since Nancy Pelosi took over as speaker
Our job situation has gotten much weaker
All jobs that are lost
Since she got the post
And as for advise, shame to all who still seek her.
For Nancy Pelosi, Majority Leader
The Chinese exploiters a life-line did feed her
Our debt load increased
Four trillions at least
We all must this fall go and vote to unseat her.
For Nancy Pelosi, known Tea Party hater
Gets scared when the grandmothers start to berate her
It does go to show
That she doesn’t know
The Tea Party is one great hate dissipater.
One more versse has been added:
One more verse to “Ode to Nancy Pelosi”
When Nancy Pelosi again became speaker,
the ravage of time showed it made her much weaker
and how nervous she looked
for her goose is soon cooked.
The Democrats future is looking much bleaker.
Our “post-racial” and “post-partisan” president insists that Republicans sit in the back of the bus: “We don’t mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.” The Anointed One apparently went off teleprompter for a few unguarded moments.
The Limerick:
Republicans: Ride in the back of the bus.
So that’s how Obama would like to treat us.
But Sarah, she sparks,
She’s our Rosa Parks.
She’ll take over the bus and not cause any fuss.
When members of the Tea Party say that pork is federal money wasted to create jobs, then they know little about the realities of what goes on in Washington, Sen. Harry Reid, (D-Nev.) told CNBC Oct 22 2010.
“Whoever suggests that knows nothing about government, zero,” said Reid.
Reid, the Senate majority leader, who is in a tight race against GOP challenger Sharon Angle—a Tea Party favorite—was taking direct aim at the conservative group, which favors a limited role of government.
Between campaign stops in Nevada, Reid told CNBC that billions of dollars were set aside in the economic recovery bill to promote job growth. In Nevada alone, he said, that includes $1.8 billion for construction jobs in renewable energy and $3 billion in bonds to be sold that puts 2,000 people to work. “I’m sorry the economy is as bad as it is. I didn’t cause this economy to go down. I have worked hard to create jobs in Nevada,” Reid went on to say. “I’ve worked hard to save the education system in Nevada, bringing in $400 million to higher education and about $400 million to K through 12.” “They [the Republicans] are going to find—those people who have gone along with that Tea Party stuff—they’re going to find that it’s not their father’s Republican Party,” he said. And post-midterms, Reid had this prediction: “I don’t think you’ll find as many Tea Party members as you might think.” The Limerick:
“The Tea Party knows not how government works”.
We all get along, though we have our quirks.
As long as there’s pork
out which we can fork,
we squander our wealth like a bunch of berserks.
