Deciphering Obama's chemistry with Congress

WASHINGTON – He hardly ever calls. When he does, it's all business.

And that's President Barack Obama's vibe with top Democrats on Capitol Hill.

With Republicans, there's even less chemistry.

But GOP congressional leaders don't show much inclination to buddy up to the president, either.

When the president sits down with eight top legislators -- four from each party -- at the White House on Tuesday, there's little expectation it will usher in a new era of comity and cooperation.

Republican leaders will head to the White House already peeved with the president for his recent veto threats and go-it-alone policy moves. Democratic leaders, now in the minority party in both chambers, will find themselves less relevant.
or lack of it

Quick-Thinking Obama Saves John Boehner’s Life At Hawaiian Luau

Posted by: Julia Iglesias

Posted on December 26, 2014



When President Obama found out that John Boehner and his wife Debbie were also in Hawaii for Christmas, he invited the Speaker of the House to play a round of golf, followed by a traditional Hawaiian luau. The event was a goodwill gesture, no doubt aimed at helping Boehner work on his tan as well as putting the relationship on a better footing.

The press was notified in advance, including a copy of the menu. The main course was what’s to be expected of a luau — a whole, roasted pig. But the pig was not only the centerpiece of the meal, it also provided a dramatic turn of events in the connection between the two men.

According to witnesses who preferred to remain anonymous — in order to avoid Boehner’s famous wrath — the First Family and John and Debbie Boehner were enjoying a huge spread of local foods like poi and pineapple boats when the event veered in a nearly tragic direction. The Congressman had reportedly consumed an unknown quantity of Hawaiian Mai Tais and became more and more animated in his conversation with the President.

After taking a huge bite of roast pork, Boehner suddenly went silent, turned deep red, and was apparently choking on the meat. Obama, seated closest to Boehner, jumped into action. He administered a deft Heimlich maneuver that sent the offending pork shooting across the table, hitting Debbie Boehner in the forehead.

Both Boehners struggled to regain their composure, however the Congressman was visibly upset, embarrassed, and still intensely red-in-the-face. He quickly collected his wife and left — supposedly without even thanking Obama for saving his life.

As they exited the President’s vacation home and entered a waiting limousine, the press corps shouted questions about how the dinner had gone, especially given its unexpectedly abrupt ending. Boehner remained stony-faced and silent as he departed.

Word quickly leaked out, however — apparently by way of amused guests — so press secretary Josh Earnest came out to release a statement:


The President and First Lady regret the near brush with tragedy this evening, and want it to be known that ‘No, Obama did not do it!’ The President and First Lady in no way arranged for Congressman Boehner to choke on his roast pig — although they did participate in selecting the menu. They are very grateful that the incident came to a positive conclusion.

At that point, the President himself appeared behind Earnest and called ‘Merry Christmas’ to the assembled reporters. When asked how he thought the incident would affect his future relationship with Boehner and the GOP’s Congressional delegation, he replied with a sly grin:


Let me be perfectly clear — this should put a stop to any talk that I don’t take action fast enough.

Duly noted, Mr. President.

Obama’s Hawaii vacation is over, now it’s time for taxpayers to pay massive tab

HONOLULU – President Barack Obama and his family just spent their Christmas and New Year’s holidays in Kailua. Now it’s time for taxpayers to pick up the tab.

While the Obamas and friends who accompany them pay for their own private vacation home rentals on or near Kailua Beach, taxpayers foot a multimillion dollar tab for everything from a stand-by ambulance to the fuel for Air Force One.

Local taxpayers pick up the bill for Honolulu Police Department escorts who guard Obama, first lady Michelle and daughters Malia and Sasha around the clock. Figures just released by HPD spokeswoman Michelle Yu show HPD spent $277,000 on overtime costs this year during the president’s 16-day vacation. That’s $16,000 less than in 2013, but $60,000 more than in 2012.

The Emergency Management Services department also dispatches an ambulance to be on call for the president, which annually costs the city about $15,890.

President Obama Vows to Veto New Iran Sanctions

President Obama says he will veto proposed bipartisan legislation to impose new sanctions on Iran so long as diplomatic negotiations over a nuclear deal remain underway.

"I will veto a bill that comes to my desk," Obama said in response to a question from ABC News at a joint news conference with visiting British Prime Minister David Cameron.

"There is no good argument for us to undercut, undermine the negotiations until they play out," Obama said.

"Congress needs to show patience,"

Iran Builds Two New Nuke Plants As Obama Admin Continues Talks With Regime,

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani announced on Tuesday that Iran has broken ground on two new nuclear power plants in the country’s Bushehr province, Iranian state news agencies reported.

“Construction of two new power plants will increase the capacity of Bushehr province’s power generation to 2,000 megawatts,” Rouhani said in an address in Bushehr province.

The expansion of Iran’s nuclear program has been made possible largely due to Russian cooperation. In March, Russia’s State Atomic Energy Corporation (AEOI) agreed to help build the two plants in Bushehr.

I'm sure the left wing nut cases are ok with this.


EXECUTIVE ORDER 13295 Was amended by Obama on July 31st 2014 to say if anyone has a communicable disease they can be detained indefinitely to if anyone is "suspected" of a communicable disease they can be detained indefinitely..
I was NEVER scared of Ebola spreading here. I made it very clear to viewers that Ebola was a tool used to fear you into this executive order..
I stated over and over again the people will willingly start detaining themselves.... lol
Here's your freedom, neighbors.. Your child will now and forever be the government's guinea pig..

Obama To Lock Up ANWR’s Oil

President Obama announced Sunday that his administration plans to lock up the oil-rich 1.5 million acre Arctic National Wildlife Refuge coastal plain and offshore areas in Alaska from oil and gas exploration.

Obama is asking Congress to designate 12 million acres of ANWR as a “wilderness” to keep it off-limits to development, despite widespread Native Alaskan support for drilling in the area. ANWR’s coastal plain alone is estimated to hold 28 billion barrels of oil.

Herein lies the rub, it is the will of the people (ya I know I'm naive) the elected political officials are suppose to represent. Not dictate their agenda. But we all know they are in charge and we submit to their will/power.
I have worked on the North Slope in Alaska, while that doesn't necessarily make me an expert I can tell you, in the past, policies, procedures, funding, facilities, etc. were in place to effectively conduct business in as responsible manner as possible. North Slope production, and corresponding revenues, are in decline, and have been for some time. As that experience edge deteriorates there will be a learning curve price to be paid when they do (and ultimately will) go into ANWAR. $0.02.
