Obama’s America – Episode 182 – Back On The Plane Again And Again

“Yes I’m Having Fun .. Got To Go See Ya”

By Arthur Piccolo

News Americas, NEW YORK, NY, Fri. July 24, 2014:  Yes we’re back on Air Force One again. Why?

Because President Barack Obama can’t stay off it! It does not matter what is happens in the United Sates or the world; you can almost always find Barack Obama flying here there and everywhere. Like right now!

Let me take you along for the ride again at Obama’s America even if you don’t get to eat all the tantalizing food on board that we detailed recently.

Air Force One might as well be renamed Campaign One because Obama does more of it than anything else raising the Big Bucks  for the Democratic Party plus his “stealth” purpose we will reveal yet again in his travels.

President Obama mostly does not bother with big room campaign fund raising no, no, no. Having to deal with all those only modestly well off Democrats with their $1,000 and $5,000 checks. Please give The Man a break.

Why not have some fun instead as he does, house hoping from one home to another of the Super Rich where The People’s President can enjoy himself in intimate luxurious settings with a small group of “friends” who pay $30,000 – $60,000 for some face time with THEIR President.

THEIRS indeed! Barack Obama certainly is not OUR President.

So where is President Obama off to this week? I will tell you.

I’ll bring in our “partners” at The New York Times, and this week The Wall Street Journal too. We only use the best to entertain you dear readers. I am indebted to the major media for lightening my load with the less than meager wages and no expense account at all that I must endure. If only I had studied harder or better and had wealthy influential parents. Woo is me!

Special thanks here to Times reporter Michael Shear for his Times story titled “Obama Goes to West Coast for 3 Days With Donors.”  Here we go …

“President Obama will spend the next three days helping to fill the coffers of his party’s campaign committees and working to lift the fortunes of two “super PACs” created to help House and Senate candidates in the midterm elections.”

“Mr. Obama left Tuesday afternoon for a West Coast swing that was to include five fund-raisers in three cities: Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles.”

“White House officials made one change to the president’s schedule this week, canceling an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on ABC. While the appearance was never formally announced, Mr. Earnest said the cancellation was a result “in part” of concerns about Mr. Obama’s appearing on a comedy show amid the global crises.”

Come on. Why do that. The Obama Presidency is a Comedy Show!

Here is a list of the stops President Obama is making …

In Seattle …..

Dinner for the Senate Majority PAC at the home of the former Costco chief executive James D. Sinegal, as well as a fund-raiser for the Democratic National Committee

And …. After dinner off to the home of Bruce and Ann Blume, who raised money for Mr. Obama’s 2012 campaign. That’s nice.

Then back on Air Force One to San  Francisco.

And the home of  George Marcus a real state investor for fund raising.

And after that on to Los Angeles …

To the home of Shonda Rhimes, creator of ABC’s “Scandal,” Yes indeed.

And finally ending his exhaustive week of fun for Barack Obama ..

Off to the home of Michael Rapino, the chief executive of Live Nation.

So now you know what the REAL job of President Barack Obama is raising the Big Bucks among the Wealthy Elite for the Democratic Party. Did you think it was something else? Where have you been these last 5 years?

Don’t let me forget my promise to include my friends and colleagues at The Wall Street Journal in this week’s episode I so rarely include them. Granted the Journal is owned by a Right Wing Whacko who also owns FOX still …

And guess who wrote this article yes Karl Rove but it fits in with the theme of this week’s episode and Obamas endless travels …

Yes the title of Rove’s piece is “ The Fundraiser in Chief.”

This about one of Obama’s other recent trips …

“After raising money at an event for Sen. Mark Udall in Colorado Tuesday – Mr. Udall bailed at the last minute -Mr. Obama is now completing a two-day fundraising swing through Texas. On Wednesday he attended a barbecue at the palatial Dallas home of plaintiff attorney Marc Stanley. Tickets cost as much as $32,400, with the money going to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. Then the president flew to Austin for a fundraiser at the home of director Robert Rodriquez, whose family-unfriendly films include “Machete,” “Sin City” and “Planet Terror.”

“Fundraisers are a priority for this president—he has attended 393 fundraisers since taking office, according to CBS White House correspondent Mark Knoller, compared with George W. Bush’s 216 at the same point in his presidency. What is not a priority is visiting South Texas to see the tragedy unfolding from a wave of illegal immigrants, many unaccompanied children.”

“White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest says he doesn’t need to visit the border “simply because the president is very aware of the situation.” Mr. Obama is mistaken if he thinks he would not benefit from meeting with state and local officials and community leaders there.”

Enough Karl Rove. I don’t want to catch whatever he has even if his piece about Obama contains some good sense. Don’t expect to see Karl Rove again here in Obama’s America. Although stranger things have happened!

Let’s close this week with our real subject.

What is the STEALTH purpose of all this wealthy house hopping which allows Obama to spend time with the Super Wealthy in private? He is doing what he and Michelle have been doing since the day thy arrived in The White House since January 20, 2009, and more and more as they get closer to leaving The Big House.

The Obamas’ are setting the stage for hat will be their very lucrative and luxurious “retirement,” Lining up a very long list of Super Wealthy “friends” who they can count on to make sure the Obamas’ become very, very rich themselves beginning in 2017 and join the ranks of the Super Rich.

Being a Former President pays very well if you prefer for it.

Just ask Bill and Hillary. They wrote the book.
