Thread: White House Insider: A timeline of an imploding executive?

This is kind of interesting stuff!

A timeline of leaks coming from somebody who is either inside the White House, or connected to staffers there.

And Valerie Jarrett is now the "acting" President with Obama either depressed or distracted.

June or earlier is the date that will herald the end of Obama. You heard it here...

I sure hope you did not get this hunch from a "fortune cookie" or from reading "tea leaves."

Relationship with President Obama

In 1991 Ms. Jarrett, as Deputy Chief of Staff to Mayor Richard Daley, interviewed Michelle Robinson for an opening in the mayor’s office, and offered her the job immediately.[15] Ms. Robinson asked for time to think and also asked Jarrett to meet her fiancé, Barack Obama. The three ended up meeting for dinner. After the dinner, Michelle took the job with the mayor's office, and Valerie Jarrett reportedly took the couple under her wing, “introduc[ing] them to a wealthier and better-connected Chicago than their own,â€

No doubt about who the Presidential Spokesperson In Chief is these days!

During an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday, White House Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett suggested that President Obama's quest for reelection in 2012 will look a bit different than the operation he ran in 2008 to win the White House.

"Because he's the President of the United States, he's not out there running the way he was before when he was the U.S. Senator," she explained. "The American people expect him to lead. He's their President. He's everybody's President regardless of party affiliation."

Jarrett went on to elaborate, "That doesn't mean that at some point he's not going to get out there and launch a campaign, but the most important thing that he can do for the American people is think of them every single day and let them guide his actions."

According to Jarrett, a priority for Obama heading into the new year will be to step outside of Washington, DC more frequently with the goal of engaging more readily with the American people. "It's really what gives him his energy and his strength, and so we're determined in the new year to make sure that his schedule reflects that priority," she said.

Can't wait to find out what the "Big Scandal" is going to be ...

Just tell me about this scandal.
(Leans back, folds arms across chest. Looks outside – then back to me) Ok then – I’ll point your nose in the right direction. Enough people are sniffing in the same garbage pile anyways, including the Times. Though I suspect they are burying it at the moment, or trying to. They are still heavily invested in Obama, but that may change soon… Go back to Chicago. That is the key. There is other crap around the White House, other things that could trip them up, but Chicago is where the real heavy deal is that could bring the administration down. Go back and review Blagojevich. Go back and review Rezko, Barton, Stern, Giordano, Carothers, Jarret. It’s one and the same. It’s all connected, and it’s big. And people know. The White House is -expletive- itself over this stuff. Pelosi has it. Clintons have it – more of it than they had in 2008.


[b](Interrupts) What do you mean “have itâ€

"Well boys and girls there we have it, start in Chicago and work our way out to the DOJ!" The Riddler has offered us a challenge!"
And there are a lot of smart people here! "Dig, Damn it Dig!"

Any thoughts on this?

From expletive deleted to executive deleted?

I know alot of data entry clerks who could write that insider stuff - lots of underemployed writers. As far as this White House being scandalous - that has been every White House for decades - it's part of the degradation & paralysis

Executive Action was a good film that still failed to capture the horror of the young people working in the JFK White House. They synopsis states that it is about the assassination of JFK but the film that I saw was about all the mysterious deaths of employees who might have known something critical to exposing the wrong parties. Since I knew young idealistic people who were basically in hiding for their very lives, having once been on top of the world, full of hope working for the administration in any capacity - that was the part of the film that really stuck with me - how many were murdered. How we eat our own. How we consistently kill our best and our brightest. We are truly a flawed species.

Hmmm ... DOJ. Must be sitting on something. To avoid Senate confirmation process which had been held up by opponents of who he wanted to appoint back in May, BHO used the recess period to finally appoint a new Deputy AG while he's been vacationing in Hawaii.

The guy and his law firm raked in $20 million supposedly "overseeing" AIG in the years leading up to the financial meltdown. Guess their oversight never caught on to the high-stakes gambles AIG was getting into, insuring all those exotic synthetic securities and CDOs and swaps that eventually melted down?

Wonder why David Ogden didn't last even a year in that post?

He was one of three Obama legal people to leave after just one year in their positions. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1209/30175.html
