| Students waiting outside the Carmichael Auditorium at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill early in the morning yesterday to see the President. |
Update: The President stops by The Sink in Boulder, Colorado, last night and makes some young people's day.
Our President connects with REAL people in a way Plastic Romney never will be able to. Romney feels that he is entitled to the office, President Obama still feels he is honored to be in the office. President Obama is REAL, Romney is PHONY. Mrs. Romney can not hold a candle to Michelle, as far as connecting to people young, old and in between. Ann should go back to her expensive horses where she belongs.
ReplyDeleteLove this.

The president dropped by a The Sink, a popular bar and pizza joint in Boulder earlier tonight. Excitement ensued, yogurt was spilled
Thanks for the link. Those pictures are great. The President is such a natural. Could you imagine Rmoney doing that?

Just remember, you kids, the rallies are fun but don't forget to cast your ballot on election day. Otherwise, that Rmoney will mess you up bad.
ReplyDeleteRock the Vote and 23 Skidoo, also, too!!
True enough. The first time Bristol Palin was eligible to vote, she couldn't be bothered to cast it for her own Mama.
DeleteRegister to vote. Remember to vote. Vote.
Bristol, always the role model you want shoved in your face.
DeleteI hear you, Beldar! I've had to double down and call back people because my state (Pennsylvania under Gov Tom Corbutt (Republican) just adopted the "Voter I.D. Laws, so the elderly who don't drive, need rides to get their official photo id's ready before the election, or they'll simply be turned away.
DeleteEvery vote matters!
It's just the Aryan Youth vote that he's losing. The rest of the kids love him.
ReplyDeleteHe's not losing any youth vote - those that love him come in all shapes sizes colors ethnic groups and every other description.
DeleteTS, do you even know what the Aryan Youth Movement is? Obviously not, or you would have gotten the joke.
DeleteAhh - sorry about that - I was so annoyed with the Huff Po report on the President losing the youth vote I jumped on your remark - equating aryan youth to white young folks - my bad.
DeleteThat's just the "liberal media" (yeah, right) in their support of Romney. Even my in-laws, who voted for Obama, take everything they read and hear to heart. My father-in-law told me last weekend that the Hilary Rozen flap has cost President Obama the womens' vote. I wonder where he heard that.
ReplyDeleteI told him to stop watching Faux News.......
Tell him President Obama cannot control what individuals say. Geez, people can be so ignorant.
DeleteThe kids make me optimistic for our future.
ReplyDeleteMe too! They are very energizing.
Delete-Alicat
But didn't you know? Romney is so "youthful" the kids are flocking to him. *snark*

Yeah, especially after he told them to go to a cheaper college in order to afford it, even if it did not meet their chosen career requirements. What an asshat that Rmoney is.
DeleteAnn RMoney on how to pay for college: (hint- it helps to marry into a family where your father in law is running one of the big 4 car companies.)
Delete"When the couple was living in a basement apartment ($62/month) at Brigham Young, "We were happy, studying hard. Neither one of us had a job, because Mitt had enough of an investment from stock that we could sell off a little at a time. The stock came from Mitt's father. When he took over American Motors, the stock was worth nothing. But he invested Mitt's birthday money year to year -- it wasn't much, a few thousand, but he put it into American Motors because he believed in himself. Five years later, stock that had been $6 a share was $96 and Mitt cashed it so we could live and pay for education."

Gee, I kind of thought Ann Romeny was one of those rich women who didn't have a clue about suffering and making ends meet.
DeleteReading that made me think I was too harsh on her, I mean, struggling to pay 96 bucks a month, while getting manicures, brasillian waxes, riding therapeutic dressage horses while being married to a mannequin had to be hard.
And having to clip investment coupons from their bonds and Mitt's birthday money shows me she's a normal woman
She's one of us! lmao
In case you missed it Gryphen, our president was his usual awesome self! He knocked it out of the park last night, and yesterday.

I loved it! :)
DeleteRomney looks as though he will be contaminated if he shakes hands with people who do not own sports franchises or Nascar race cars. Our President LOVES meeting and greeting regular people, and it shows. The Obama family personifies "family values" and decency. No offshore bank accounts to avoid taxes. What you see is what you get with the entire Obama family. The Romneys lie, about taxes, raising kids with no help (yeah, right!) Nothing truly genuine about the ulta rich Rmoneys.
ReplyDeleteRmoney reminds me of Bush on steroids and Obama reminds me of Bill Clinton with out the sexual baggage
DeleteRemember how President Bush use to clean his hands after meeting with folks? You never see President Obama do that! He is so much more open to people - Romney will NEVER compare to him!
DeleteSo true. Have you noticed how Rmoney walks? It's like he has a stick up his butt. I can't believe how he acted about the cookies! Not only does he have bad manners but I think when he is around regular people it creeps him out. Listen up Rmoney...you creep me out!
DeleteRomney's got three months to "pivot", but the problem is President Obama, without having to mention him at all, can show by example how out of touch and all over the map Romeny truly is.
DeleteThat entire cookie clip was a royal disaster. He didn't answer ONE of their questions.
LOVE. THIS. MAN. PERIOD!
ReplyDeleteCheck out the welcome they gave him in Colorado:

That last photo is priceless!
ReplyDeleteYes it is :)
Delete'Rmoney'
ReplyDeleteIt feels so applicable ~ just like '$arah' and 'Bri$tol'.
Some other names for the "unemployed" millionaire:
DeleteMeh Romney
Etch-a-Sketch
Thurston Howell III (but less lovable)
Willard is trying to get the youth vote by flip flopping on the college tuition issue. He will not get the respect of the female youth with his anti choice stand, nor will he get the respect of the gay youth with his anti gay stand.
ReplyDeleteThe only youths that will vote for him, are the ones that are bigots, and the self righteous Christians. Funny thing about those Christians, is that Willard is a Mormon, and they are the heretics of all the "Christians". They preach more from the Book of Mormon than they do from the Bible.
I watched the speeches he gave in NC and CO and he was on fire! It's very fun to watch him with the college kids. I was hootin' hollerin' and saying AMEN and right along with them.
ReplyDeleteI love the President!
Let's stay together!

Starstruck Obama Fangirl Hilariously Dishes About Her Viral Presidential Photo-Op
ReplyDeleteUniversity of Colorado student Madalyn Starkey, whose star-struck photo with President Obama went viral on Twitter, dished to Al Sharpton about her fateful encounter, which it turns out was a genuine surprise — and “sweeeeet!”
“I just went on a date with my boyfriend before the Michael Franti concert (editor’s note: where else?!). We couldn’t decide which restaurant to go to, we’ve been to The Sink like three times that previous week, so we were like ‘ah whatever, we’ll go again,’ so we sit down, order our drinks, and literally like three minutes later the security guards come in and said ‘attention, attention, the president is is coming, if you don’t want to meet him, come to this back room so we can metal detect you.’” Starkey explained. “So we were like ‘Sweeeeet! The president! Let’s go!’ So they took away all of our silverware, forks, knives, and we just sat there and waited, and we were not allowed to stand up, I don’t know what the situation was on that, so yeah, it was incredible, it was the anticipation.”
Sharpton asked Starkey what was going through her mind when President Obama walked in.
“It just like didn’t even seem real, I have seen him on tv, and now he is at the same restaurant with me with only 30 other people? And we called him ‘the casual Obama’ because he took off his jacket, and was just being all the charismatic guy he is. It was incredible.”
“What was the exchange like?” questioned Sharpton.
“That was a bit awkward,” Starkey revealed. “He went over to everyone’s table first off, and finally the paparazzi like cleared out of the way and he got to our table, and the only thing I said to him was ‘Can I get a picture,’ and he said ‘stand up,’ we took the picture, and then literally all I said was, ‘you smell good’ — and that was the end of the conversation. Because I just get so starstruck that I was just like –ahhh! — I couldn’t say anything.”
Starkey explained that once she took the picture with Obama, she posted it on Twitter to her 50 followers and “and it got retweeted and retweeted, and my phone has not stopped blowing up. I ruined the whole date with my boyfriend.”
