At Hillbuzz, Obama’s chosen venue is described as being much smaller and more private than the big, 2008 election night rally held in Grant Park, Chicago. Kevin DuJan says that the place is not good for pedestrian traffic or lines of buses. The meeting places in McCormick Place, are entirely indoors, and will not fit the throngs of people who would be attracted to a winning candidate’s victory party. This event is definitely downsized. This convention center is a good place to make a concession speech, and then take a very short drive back to the Obama-Rezko mansion afterwards.
Obama expects to lose.
Is this the communication from a presidential administration or from a middle school boy?
During the second presidential debate with Romney, Obama told us his solution to work place issues for women: Birth Control.
Romney’s answer was more substantive, telling of his efforts to recruit competent female advisors and staffers into his admininistration while governor of Massachusetts.
The snippy little Obama Tweet made an issue of Romney’s referral to the applicant data presented to him during the recruitment process.
Are women going to be impressed by Obama’s suggestion of birth control to make women a more secure place in the work world, or Romney’s practice of offering flex-time benefits to recruit the best female workers?
The Weekly Standard Blog reviews articles from the Washington Post and Time Magazine, reminding us that Obama’s own administration is a Boys Club. (No, they did not say Man’s Country).
Over and above bad feelings experienced by the women in the Obama administration, hard data reigns supreme. Obama signed a bill regarding women’s pay in the work place, but he’s never been able to provide parity in pay or representation for women, whether in his own senate staff, or his own white house administration.
Obama waged another battle in his war on women during the October 16 Town Hall debate against Romney.
“There are millions of women all across the country who rely on Planned Parenthood for mammograms, for cervical cancer screenings,” Obama lied.
He said the same thing in an interview with Glamour magazine. The problem is that no Planned Parenthood facilities do mammograms. Life News has assembled links to some of the evidence and admissions from Planned Parenthood that they do NOT have mammography equipment at any one of their facilities, and are not certified for such procedures. Komen Foundation had sought to cancel grants to Planned Parenthood, on this basis, but backed down due to a media assault from the abortion giant.
The tax payer funded, non-profit Planned Parenthood has allocated six million dollars for ads to reelect Obama and the democrats. There’s another half million dollar ad dump in Ohio and Virginia, and another quarter million going for ads in Colorado, newly announced by America’s largest abortion provider.
In answer to a question on jobs for women, Obama reiterated his plan to force employers to cover birth control, abortion and sterilization, otherwise known as the HHS mandate. To help women in their jobs, Romney suggested flexible hours and a shot in the arm for employers and the economy, to allow opportunity for unemployed women. Obama spoke of his mandate to force employers to provide for preventing or aborting pregnancies.
Suspicious Package Found at Planned Parenthood.
The Planned Parenthood in Albemarle County had their access road closed off for two hours on Monday morning as a result of a “suspicious package found at the facility. Employees spotted a box at their front entrance which sent them into a panic. Albemarle and Virginia State police were called to the scene.
Inside the box were a Bible and candles.
During tonight’s presidential Townhall debate, the issue of jobs and equal pay for women came up. Romney discussed his own approach in recruiting women into his administration while governor of Massachusetts, and addressing their need for flexible hours in the workplace, and that bringing relief to employers would bring more opportunities for women.
Obama added another answer for the issue of jobs for women, and that involved tax funding for planned unparenthood and the need for free
Maybe this could prevent the need for flexible work hours.
Clinton: I’m responsible for diplomats’ security – CNN.com.
Hillary is taking the blame for the death of U.S. ambassador to Libya in Benghazi, saying that the diplomats’ security is the job of the state department.
This is in tune with Biden and Obama’s attempt to absolve themselves from blame for removing U.S. security from the Libyan embassy, and for refusals to heed requests from ambassador Chris Stevens, who was killed there.
Prior reports that Stevens was raped before he was killed came from Tayyar.org (Lebanon news) which credited the AFP. The AFP complained to Tayyar and the news page in Arabic, as well as video claims have been scrubbed from the internet. No one wants credit for initial reports that Stevens was raped before, during or after he was murdered.
The Washington Times is keeping this view of the Google Translated Tayyar.org article. If this link disappears, notify the Pharmer in comments, because it can be restored.
Sarah Palin’s Hollywood Makeover – The Daily Beast.
The latest in hilarity comes from Fashion Beast which carries the latest lie that Palin has become “scary thin” or anorexic.
Palin, shown in the article in skinny jeans, is small boned, and has appropriate body mass. She’s at or near the medically ideal body weight.
Middle aged, Beastie leftists are envying Sarah Palin for having almost a teenage figure (which due to her outdoor lifestyle and attention to physical fitness).
Maybe Pharmer will take a look at Palin’s fitness program, to be available in an upcoming book, but likely won’t follow it closely. Doing martial arts is fun, but running is NOT.
There is an entire Palin photo montage at A Time for Choosing, for those who would like to envy Palin’s fitness from a friendy point of view.
Future accountant or card shark?
The little gurl from Iowa comes with her own set of “lucky” lotto numbers. Laila’s birth weight is 8lb, 9oz, and she was born on 10/11/12 at 13:14 (1:14 pm)
FUN!
