Remarks of President Barack Obama
Weekly Address
July 9, 2011
Washington, DC
President Obama calls on both parties to come together to find a balanced approach to deficit reduction that lets us live within our means without hurting investments our economy needs to grow and create jobs.
Is it just me, or does this sound like a summer re-run to you too? I could have sworn Big Guy delivered this exact same weekly radio address a few months ago. And then again, a few weeks back. I think in politics that’s what’s known as staying on message.
And that’s why we “cancelled” our vacay to Montana - in order to “stay of message” regarding fiscal responsibility. And to meet with Congressional leaders for 75 minutes on Sunday night. For some photo ops.
5 people meet to discuss serious issues.
No one wants to be on the wrong side of the table (the one without a camera lens pointing their way)
Butt I don’t think we’re making much progress. Big Guy says he won’t take “no” for an answer, and Harry says the R-words won’t take “yes” for an answer. Sounds like ‘heads I win and tails, you lose’ situation. For both sides. What fun!
Taxes seem to be a sticking point. Big Guy wants more of them from the filthy rich, and will explain why, yet again to you numbskulls, in a presser at 11:00. Don’t worry this is still just the courtship. The wedding isn’t until July 22, or August 2. Or some future date mutually agreed on. And since neither the bride or groom is the least bit interested in sending their gifts back, expect to see a sham of a wedding ceremony.
Oh wait! We invited more people! There’s Tiny Tim!
I’m just glad everyone went home last night because I was afraid Big Guy was going to pull an all-nighter like he used to in college (sans the doobies of course). But apparently there weren’t enough munchies stocked in the Big White’s healthy, organic, locally grown food pantry. Lady M beat him to the strategic reserve of sugary, salty snacks. That may be the real reason everyone went home early... for dinner.
Anyway, since Lady M is squirrelled away in her burrow, I decided to catch up on my email.

As you know, I haven’t had a chance to break out the MOTUS mailbag for quite awhile. Butt today my pal Abby (you may know her: she writes advice columns for Liberals who can’t figure out what to do?) forwarded an email she received last week that she thought my readers might enjoy. And she thought even Big Guy may be able to learn something from it.
Dear Abby,
My husband has a long record of money problems. He runs up huge credit-card bills and at the end of the month, if I try to pay them off, he shouts at me, saying I am stealing his money. He says pay the minimum and lets our kids worry about the rest, but already we can hardly keep up with the interest.Also he has been so arrogant and abusive toward our neighbors that most of them no longer speak to us. The few that do are an odd bunch, to whom he has been giving a lot of expensive gifts, running up our bills even more.
Also, he has gotten religious. One week he hangs out with Catholics and the next with people who say the Pope is the Anti-Christ, and the next he's hanging with Muslims.
Finally, the last straw. He's demanding that before anyone can be in the same room with him, they must sign a loyalty oath.
It's just so horribly creepy! Can you help?
Signed, Lost in DC
To which Abby responded:
Dear Lost:
Stop whining, Michelle. You get to live in the White House for free, eat like a Queen, run your vanity/fantasy “No Child’s Fat Behind” program and travel the world on our dime.You can divorce the jerk any time you want. The rest of us are stuck with the son of a bitch for the next year and a half!
Signed, Abby
Well, if your husband had saved “about a billion jobs” and created a couple dozen, you could afford to live large too.
Just too bad all billion of those jobs are in China.
H/T GABPANTHER
Larwyn’s Linx on DougRoss@Journal, Thanks!

I'm beyond being sick and tired of all this craptasticity that has been going on under this administration. All I ask is that we, the People, survive this national disasters called "O-Baka" and "MOO".
ReplyDeleteOh, and how narcisstic can you get? "I saved...", "I created...", "I'm such a great guy..." As if Big Guy is Atlas, singlehandedly holding all the weight of the world on his scrawny shoulders. *Barf*
ReplyDeleteWhen you look at yesterday's side-by-side comparison of Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, and MOO, the Queen of Tart, you just can't help butt feel embarassed because we have such a cheap-looking FL.
Love the 'dear Abby' thing.. very creative.
ReplyDeleteOne of the best Dear Abbys I've seen in a lonnnnnnnnng time! ;)
ReplyDeleteBabs more "regal" than Will & Kate?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/prince-william/8628712/Barbra-Streisand-is-more-regal-than-William-and-Kate.html
<span>When I look at these two I'm convinced she does it standing up and he sits down.
ReplyDeleteSo much for that iconic image the noozies squirt out.</span>
Thanks for the link to Tom Hanks' ridiculous, ill-informed remark about saving a billion jobs. Tom - there are about 330 million people in the US and your wife's boobs are fake. I'm thrilled that your movie is an epic fail.
ReplyDeleteOT - I was thinking about that press conference when the Won left Clinton in charge because MEMEMEchelle was waiting for him and Billy made a comment about not wanting to make her mad. Mr CCG constantly has vacations interrupted by calls, etc., as I did when I was in the Biz world. I would never have bailed out of a meeting because my husband was expecting me. And we are not the leaders of the free world! What a p.whipped little fairy - she must have some major goods on him. OT again - as far as Kate's derriere? is concerned - as someone stated yesterday -that will become a screen saver whereas her FFA would be burned immediately as a scream saver.
"I hereby sentence Obama to life without the possibility of a TelePromTer, podium or microphone."
ReplyDeleteNot even Tom Hanks could save a Jennifer Anniston film.
ReplyDeleteIt's always the same ole crap with the bs'er in chief. I tortured myself for a time this morning, to watch the latest gab fest, he's SO desperate now, so he had to nag and lecture us once again.
ReplyDeleteTelling us to "eat our peas". WTF, you know what he can go eat, and it sure ain't "peas". I hope we don't get subjected to a nonsensical presser every day until he pressures Boehner to fold, I can't take it. >:o
Is he finished talking yet?????????
ReplyDeleteEwww! Just Ewwww! Babs "regal"??? I'm not even going to read that one.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch TV or read newspapers anymore, and from the things I read or see online I get the impression of a whiny, egotistical, narcisstic, harping, and nagging bully. He's just daring the R-words to go against him, commanding them to cave and crumble in front of his fabulosity. There were commentors in that Tom Hanks article who actually thought he was right and that they'd vote for O-Baka again. Mios Dios!
ReplyDeleteExcellent MOTUS, as usual.
ReplyDelete<span>The rest of us are stuck with the son of a bitch for the next year and a half! </span>
Won't it be fun! Whatever will MOO do for an encore to living life like trailer trash on steriods in front of the entire nation? Hopefully move to Kenya. With her deluded little bastard.
PatAZ - take a deepbreath. A more realistic title for the article would be, "Streisand Takes Herself Far Too Seriously," or "Barbra Shows her Diva Ass...Again."
ReplyDeleteI guess I am more cruel than you, CR. I sentence Bo to 6 lifetimes of Moochelle.
ReplyDeleteI can guaran-damn-tee you that Barry never read Atlas Shrugged.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU!! Why the hell does she keep getting work? She plays the same character in everything, and every single one of them is a plain-flavored gummy.
ReplyDeleteYes, do go read it; if you're not a Babs fan, you'll be pleasantly surprised.
ReplyDeleteOufff, you ask too much of a guy. The book is soooooooooo thick, thicker than 2000-pages Obamacare bill that we still have to read to find out what's in it.
ReplyDeleteExcept this part, which made me want to scream:
ReplyDeleteTalulah Riley, the 25-year-old star of the St Trinian's films, has a bone to pick with the Duchess of Cambridge.
After being given a sapphire and diamond engagement ring by Elon Musk, the space entrepreneur who is now her husband, he presented her with a wedding ring with the same stones in reverse.
As a result, she complains that she is routinely accused of copying the Duchess's ring. "I got there first. We were engaged three years ago and we got married last September, so it's not fair."
Um, hello? She is old enough to have heard of Princess Diana, right? Who had the ring first.
"Eat your peas while Michelle and I go eat lobster."
ReplyDeleteI would love to take credit, or even give credit where credit is due, butt since it was reflected into my email box by my cousin George, Lord only knows where he picked it. He's hangin' with a cracked-mirror crowd these days.
ReplyDelete<span>"President Obama calls on both parties to come together to find a balanced approach to deficit reduction that lets us live within our means without hurting investments our economy needs to grow and create jobs."</span><span></span><span>Just make sure all wolves are well fed and all lambs are alive and accounted for.</span>
ReplyDeleteMost people these days are eating legumes. Beans and franks as I recall.
ReplyDeleteOwwwwwwwwwwwww! So sorry Talulah. Didn't your mommy tell you that life wasn't fair? No? I didn't think so. Many mommies these day seem to have forgotten that essential lesson. That would explain the age of "social justice."
ReplyDeleteOr beans and rice for the Hispanic crowd.
ReplyDeleteProbably because she's got a good agent? Notoriety as Brad's ex? Former "Friends" star? I don't know. Nowadays most actors are two dimensional, without depth, without talent - can't act their way out of a paper bag.
ReplyDeleteBabs has always been over-rated and self-important. Why anyone puts up with her incessant posturing and pompous ridiculosity is a mystery.
ReplyDeletebaraka hussein abu-oumama's presser today was filled with verbal stumbles and incoherent sentences - not to mention lies and half-truths. It was practically unintelligible. R-words need to keep pressure on barry - he is not far from total implosion. Maybe we can see him removed from office on the basis of his mental health problems and addictions. Think of the bonus! We get rid of the first cow too!
ReplyDeleteBarbra Streisand...B.S. - "Bitch Supreme"
ReplyDeleteI notice she is up on the latest way to keep a clean jawline well into her nineties...duct tape those extra chins down to the neck. Works like a champ! (Hint to Babs: A little Goo-Gone will get rid of any sticky residue.)
"Pull off the band-aid!"
MOO doesn't eat like a queen; she eats like a pig.
ReplyDeleteWhat he reminds me of is a middle schooler with a really bad case of ADHD.
ReplyDeleteMan, being forced to rusticate at Camp David TWO weekends in a row AND NO GOLF A-TALL this weekend must be really chapping his ass. No wonder he's got a terminal case of PMS and is REALLY bitchy this week.
At the risk of confirming myself as totally uncool, I had never heard of Talula Riley before reading that. So there!
ReplyDeleteButt whoa, what a diva Streisand is! She has a gorgeous voice. If only she'd confine the use of her voice to singing. (She is the original "shut up and sing" celebrity, to coin a phrase.) In a way, we can be glad she doesn't do red carpets and poses only for carefully selected photographers. It means there are far fewer opportunities for us common people to see her arrogant mug.
I've read that Streisand never had singing lessons. Perhaps she's simply a natural talent; perhaps she couldn't stand the thought of anyone else giving her instruction.
Same reason Sarah Jessica Parker keeps being talked up as a fashion icon.
ReplyDeleteI was listening to some fill-in radio host subbing for Glenn Beck the other day, on my lunch break, and it was hilarious how he was spoofing our "articulate" President's speech pattern. He said it was like a whole other language, like Barry was speaking in tongues.
ReplyDeleteHot off the presses!!!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.politico.com/blogs/click/0711/Michelle_Obama_spotted_at_Shake_Shack.html#
Spotted: First lady Michelle Obama at the Shake Shack in Dupont Circle on Monday afternoon. Known for its cheeseburgers and milkshakes, the fast food joint opened its Washington location in May.
Ok, changed my mind and read it. You all were right. Showed exactly what she is ... a bioytch. A good and proper one. I think she like her big crooked nose to be properly positioned in any photos.
ReplyDeleteAnd that Tarantino is kind of a queer duck, isn't he? A British friend of mine used that saying and I always liked it.
Well, ya know, ugly is the new gawjus...ain't it?
ReplyDeleteAnglos eat beans and rice too, below the Mason-Dixon line anyway :) Red beans and rice is a New Orleans staple; hopping john (blackeyed peas and rice) is traditionally served on New Year's Day in Southern homes and delicious any time. And fortunately, given the wonderful recovery we're experiencing, both are cheap!
ReplyDeleteMichelle Obama - mmmmmmmm - mmmmmmm - mmmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteShake Shack??
ReplyDeleteno peas???
(MOTUS, make ready the containment system.)
filled with verbal stumbles and incoherent sentences - not to mention lies and half-truths
ReplyDeleteIn other words, a typical 0bummer performance.
For us Thais the cheapest food would be rice and fish sauce.
ReplyDeleteMooch will be trying to upstage the mourners at Betty Ford's funeral in Calif tomorrow. So that will be fun for you,MOTUS.
ReplyDeleteMake sure she wears the black squirt-flower boutonniere she wore at the Shriver funeral last year. So tasteful.
I'm just waiting for the year when her (JA's) mug won't be on every magazing front when I'm in the checkout line at the grocery store. It's been a long time coming.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite saying: Zippy gets the pork and we get the beans. Or whoever you want to slide in the first spot.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's the other mystery. I don't think Jennifer is unattractive, just...boring. Yet the tabloids seem to dedicate much of their time to trying so desperately to convince us that she's interesting.
ReplyDeleteFrom a recent email:
ReplyDeleteLast I heard...because of her partnership with Brad Pitt in "Plan B" (a Hollywood movie production company), makes Anniston BEAU-COUP rich. It was part of the divorce agreement.
ReplyDeleteShe can hire all the fawning publicity she wants.
Since the owns the movie studio, she can star in movies, and hire the BIGGEST stars.
She can buy everything she wants but style; reminds me of someone else we know...
Ooh, Weavingbug, yesterday hubby and I went to one of his favorite stores (Harbor Freight Tools) and then one of my favorite stores (the Asian supermarket that's almost right next door). We usually stay out of the fish and meat section, because Mr. Kittenpants has a low tolerance for fish smell (he blames too many bad fishing trips in his youth), but this time we found ourselves perusing the um, parts. Interesting. Very interesting. Definitely making use of all parts of the animal (pork rectums? pork uteri? beef "pizzles?"). Then there were the testicular conjoined Indian eggplants I found. Hubby got embarrassed because I took a photo of those.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I bought red bean mochi. Yum!!
ReplyDeleteShe pays for those magazine covers, y'know...
ReplyDeleteOkay - fully agree that Babs is a total bitch. However, one of my all-time favorite movies is The Way We Were and when she sings it I get chills. The funny thing is that I was about 8 years old when my mother took me. And Robert Redford was so smokin hot in that - ooh, la, la.
ReplyDeleteAnybody who does not like Jennifer Aniston might like the Tyler Durbin blog. He is very snarky and can't stand her.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.wwtdd.com/
The comments over there are unreal. Those people are delusional. She works out all the time and can afford those 1700 calories, she is so toned, she gets up before dawn and works out and then takes care of her girls, etc. :-$ :-$ :-$ . Unbelievable that people are still so taken by this farce of a FL.
ReplyDeleteha ha ha. :-D
ReplyDeleteNBK: I forgot where you live, I was in Seattle several weekends ago and went to Uwajimaya. Try some fresh daifuku (mochi cakes filled with red bean, the one I got were rolled in green tea powder - YUMMY!, the mochi was so tender) Personally I refuse to eat any type of offal. I will pick out tendon, tripe, don't care for chicken feet, pig feet, etc. Back in the olden days you gotta eat what there was to eat.
ReplyDeleteI give up.
ReplyDeleteWhat's a "Talula Riley"? Another euphemism for something obscene?
/s/Confused
Mooch probably knows exactly where he was born and when - and assorted other tales. She has an "arrangement". Just how does she explain that Plan for Success to those young black girls she pretends to mentor?
ReplyDeleteAnd Moochie is off to Palm Desert on Taxpayer One to attend Betty Ford's funeral. Wait till she tells him about all those golf courses!!!!
ReplyDeleteIf she's so dam buff, then why'd she order a Diet Coke with her gutbuster meal?
ReplyDeleteHysterically funny that the WaPo reporters, of all people, are chasing her down and exposing her hypocrisy!
ReplyDeleteRemember PIAPS (Pig In A Pants Suit)?
Someone over at Lucianne has come up with PIABB (Pig In A Boob Belt).
She'll fry if she tries to wear that pleather-trimmed jumper with the black T underneath. Maybe her Meet-the-Pope getup? That black organza Big Bow Blouse has to be kicking around somewhere on the closet floor. Oh, there it is - hidden under that hideous black veil.
ReplyDelete"Perfect."
Sort of, butt a Talula Riley is also this:
ReplyDeleteOMG: cruel & unusual punishment...well, at least unusual. :-D

<span></span>
<span>First lady Michelle Obama ordered a whopper of a meal at the newly opened Washington diner Shake Shack during lunch on Monday. A Washington Post journalist on the scene confirmed the first lady, who’s made a cause out of child nutrition, ordered a ShackBurger, fries, chocolate shake and a Diet Coke while the street and sidewalk in front of the usually-packed Shake Shack were closed by security during her visit. According to nutritional information on Shake Shack’s Web site, the meal amounted to 1,700 calories.</span>
Redford looks unbelievable in that movie, in his Navy white. I swooned. But he is another liberal and he hasn't aged so well. But neither have I. lol
ReplyDeleteJennifer is the eternal "That Girl" character, always single, always with a new boyfriend. I wonder if she is really happy that way. Money buys lots of things, but still doesn't buy true love.
ReplyDeleteQuote from article: "He confirmed that the Oscar-winning star [Babs} had entered the theatre by a back door. Streisand tends, too, to pose only for selected cameramen, who show her their pictures for approval before wiring them to their news agencies."
ReplyDeleteSounds like she and MoochMORE have a lot in common. Delusions of grandeur.
I rarely listen to BOo, but when I try to, he is very difficult for me to understand. It's like I am a couple of words behind him, still trying to decipher what he just said. He speaks English as though it were a second language.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe she will wear the red flowered dress she wore to the MOH award ceremony. Why not? It's only a funeral for an R-word.
ReplyDeleteI guess this explains why the First Caboose is growing faster than the national debt.
ReplyDeleteSo glad they pointed out the calories. Of course she had a diet coke, but after a chocolate shake, what else would you have. And anyway, she spent 2 weekends out there in the boondocks of MD. She needed something to make her feel good.
ReplyDeleteDumb-butt MoochMORE should have learned from what happened to Oprah -- make your weight or anyone's weight an issue and people are going to pay attention to what you eat! Remember when Oprah was whining that people were looking at what she ordered for dinner -- she was regaining all the fat as she complained.
ReplyDeleteWB, I'm in the Dallas, Texas area.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet all those other people who came to eat lunch appreciated being turned out.
ReplyDeleteNah, I think it's more cruel than anything else, if Big Guy's proclivities run true to rumors.
ReplyDeleteNBK: Lucky! You got a nice choice of Asian stuff down there. If you like Vietnamese, find a restaurant that makes Banh Cuong (freshly steamed rice sheet stuff with ground pork and served with Vietnamese sausage on the side) In the States it's supposedly tme consuming to make, but it's delish!
ReplyDeleteOne question here - If I had a PERSONAL chef(s) I would ask that taxpayer paid persona to make me a burger, fries and a shake. How hard can that be? Millions of us do that on the 4th and other holidays, summer nights, etc. She is one rude pig to take away lunch and the sidewalk and street from real, deserving people. George and Laura would never have done that - or any other POTUS or MOTUS I can think of. When will they GO AWAY???? **Afterwards she probably stuck a silver feather down her throat to prepare for dinner.
ReplyDeleteWhen french fries are outlawed only the outlaw m00seHell will have french fries.
ReplyDeleteYou got it, Pink. My grandmother, long deceased and born 2 centuries ago, used to dismiss Babs as "a screamer".
ReplyDeleteThey even went back and updated the calories from 1556 or so to 1700. Too funny
ReplyDeleteApparently they checked the Shake Shack's website where the calorie count was dutifully posted - per Mooch's fiat.
You can't make this stuff up.
Butt, she really like french fries.
ReplyDeleteShe plays her self. No acting talent required.
ReplyDeleteShe just exudes her vapid non personality.
Seems to me she ends up boffing every male co-star in every lousy movie she makes.
ReplyDeleteShe's a situational slut. :-D
Argggggg! Even steel reinforced miracle lycra has it's limitations. I suspect it's obvious that we are in the danger zone.
ReplyDeleteTotally OT: While reading the July issue of Canadian Business magazine I came across an article regarding personalized urns, where you can have an urn made into your likeness <yes> What was 'creepier' was the photo with the article!

Well Schatzi, as Lady M has explained: "It's all cumulative!"
ReplyDeleteTake That Kate!
ReplyDeleteShe's copying the name of my Tallulah, and not spelling it correctly, who is named after the real Tallulah Bankhead. I don't suppose she's ever heard of her either.
ReplyDeletePS, I've never heard of her before and haven't seen any of her films. Pride and Prejudice? Which one? Little theater?
ReplyDeleteTogether in obscurity.
ReplyDeleteMac and Cheese for their dairy serving.
ReplyDeleteWell how very bitchin of her to cause this business to lose their lunch crowd because her fat head wanted publicity. She could have sent one of her 26 flunkies to pick it up. God, I hate those two selfish nitwits.
ReplyDeleteStop the SECRET meetings at the White House an in Congress! Put on CSPAN like the dumb bastard promised!
ReplyDeleteRobert REdford looks like BABS now! Poor thing
ReplyDeleteStuff another 2 ton ball of ice cream whole into your gullet for the next photo op --- dumb bastard Obummer EAT YOUR OWN PEAS! The Sugar Daddy out of Sugar!!!
ReplyDeleteI see...the wardrobe from Stepford Wives.
ReplyDeletePerfect! The woman who never gardened until 3 years ago and has never actually served healthy food to her own family. Yes, we can!
ReplyDeleteSomeone got her into a dress that covers her upper thighs and shows no Bermuda Triangle. Check. Beehive (conehead?) hairdo. Check. Sasha's cardigan. Check. Boob Belt. Check. No gaudy shoes. Check. And some brave soul taught her to position her legs like a lady.
ReplyDeleteBut inside all that photoshopping we know it's the same obnoxious Mooch.

Which begs the question:
ReplyDeleteDo you think Moochelle Antoinette pays taxpayer money to get all that space in Vanity Fair and Good Housekeeping, et al?
Just when I was starting to breathe normally...
Oh, I've long since learned to distinguish between the person and the talent, ever since I became a fan of Ozzy Osbourne when I was a teenager and everyone just had to tell me about the dove-biting incident.
ReplyDeleteOne of my good friends is a girl I went to high school with, but didn't know very well back then. I've gotten to know her since through Facebook. She grew up in Singapore (her mom is Indonesian and her dad Anglo but he worked for some oil company) and when she was a teenager he moved them to my hometown. She initially thought she'd gone to hell from the culture shock, but now she's back in that same town with her husband and daughters and very happy living small-town life.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I went to a party for her daughter's First Communion last year, and she and her mom put on a FEAST. Stuff I don't even know the name of, but it was delicious. She's always saying she's going to take me to Dallas and we'll go to a "real" Asian restaurant. I look forward to the experience, butt will pack Zantac just in case. :)
Maybe those scars indicate his speech center has been compromised.
