Did I Mention ObamaCare Is Dead?

How ironic is it that the Democrats have effectively slammed the coffin on ObamaCare on the eve of U.S. president Barack Obama’s State of the Union Address, which airs tonight?

These are the same Democrats who cried that “1000 people” would die daily if healthcare reform wasn’t passed. Now they’re saying they no longer feel pressured to move quickly on a health bill. Hmmmm…

With no clear path forward on major health care legislation, Democratic leaders in Congress effectively slammed the brakes on President Obama’s top domestic priority on Tuesday, saying that they no longer felt pressure to move quickly on a health bill after eight months of setting deadlines and missing them.

The Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, Democrat of Nevada, deflected questions about health care. “We’re not on health care now,” he said. “We’ve talked a lot about it in the past.” He added, “There is no rush,” Read More…

Reid went on to say they would take their time to work on the health bills that were passed in the House and Senate in December, thus hinting at a reconciliation. But Senator Judd Gregg has vowed to make it an “extraordinarily difficult exercise” for Dems to pass the Senate bill through the House while getting the Senate to fix the bill with a “sidecar” through reconciliation…

And a GOP aide said, “If you bring a reconciliation bill to the Senate, it’s a free for all of amendments,” suggesting that ObamaCare will be stalled until the mid-term elections in November when Congress is expected to hemorrhage Democrats as angry voters take to the polls again.

Thad over at ExclusiveAccess.net sent over this video containing behind the scenes footage of local rapper Shawty Lo’s “WTF” shoot featuring Lil Wayne that took place yesterday right here in the A.

Now I can see why the tricks and groupies give Shawty Lo’s lady Ecreia such a hard time. After dropping a bundle on dermatologists and skin treatments last year, Shawty Lo is turning out to be that dude, isn’t he? Go on admit it, you’re feelin’ his swag, right?

Time For Obama To Start Panicking?

U.S. President Barack Obama suffered a humiliating defeat last Tuesday when Massachusetts voters elected a Republican to a Senate seat that was held by the Democrats since the late 1960s.

It was a crushing blow to Obama’s personal agenda to socialize America by passing sweeping healthcare reform, and at the same time one-up former president Bill Clinton who was unable to get the job done back in 1994.

During the campaign, Obama repeated his top priorities to withdraw from Iraq and fix the economy. He promised to move quickly and assured worried Americans that he understood their concerns about losing their jobs and homes due to the nation’s financial mess.

“I want to ensure that we hit the ground running on Jan. 20 because we don’t have a moment to lose,” he said back in November.

But it was a different Obama who took office on Jan. 20. It was an arrogant Obama who quickly forgot the promises he made to the American people. His agenda was more important than saving jobs or fixing the economy.

And so for the past nine months, Mr. Obama remained doggedly determined to sign his $3 trillion healthcare reform bill into law despite the fact that his popularity was waning in the polls.

Narcissists like Obama have an annoying tendency to ignore reality if it conflicts with their inflated egos. This is why other socialist dictators like Hitler and Stalin failed so brilliantly.

Tomorrow, a thoroughly humiliated Obama will go before the nation and make more promises, such as a 3-year spending freeze that will ultimately result in even more job losses. What he won’t be able to boast about are his many accomplishments since he has none.

In short, Mr Obama’s nightmare January could easily slip into a nightmare February. “Unless and until the president changes the way his White House, works, things are going to continue to go badly for him,” says the head of a Democratic think-tank. “Heads still have to roll.” Read More…




 

Not So Blind Item

Which smooth R&B singer accompanied his boys to a local strip club last week but refused any attention from the strippers?

According to my spy, the singer and his entourage hit up Club Onyx last Wednesday night. My spy says the singer and another man sat quietly and watched while his boys frolicked with the amply endowed strippers in VIP.

The crooner, who recently secured a divorce from his psycho ex-wife, waved away strippers who attempted to approach him. One stripper approached the singer anyway, put her hand on his shoulder and tried to engage him in conversation. But the singer asked her to remove her hand and told her, “No thank you. I’m good.”

Which prompts the question: why was he in a strip club in the first place?

The stripper told friends that when she put her hand on the singer’s shoulder, the man sitting next to him glared at her disapprovingly. She said the guy looked at her as if to say, ‘why are you touching my man?’

Misa Hylton and Sarah Chapman Shun Kim Porter

Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs has quite an interesting history with females. He’s pursued more women over the years than anyone can count. The ones who let him catch them — and impregnate them — are set for life unless he loses his fortune in a banking collapse or the worsening recession.

Sean’s first baby mama, Misa Hylton, spoke to Power 105 radio jock Cherry Martinez about her relationship with Sean’s other baby mamas, Kim Porter and Sarah Chapman. She’s right about Sarah Chapman being the sweet levelheaded one. Sarah says Misa is sweet and she attended Justin’s birthday party on Saturday with Chance who loves Justin to death.

Kim Porter used to be nice way back in the day. But now she’s just a bitter old hag who feels she’s entitled to treat people like dirt.

I’ll never forget shooting an event for her for free back in 2007, and the next day she called me. I thought she was going to thank me. Instead, she ranted and raged because I didn’t put the pictures up on my site quickly enough. My entire perception of her changed in that one phone call. That ghetto personality that she works so hard to conceal came out of her. The next time she tried to call me I refused to answer my phone.

Isn’t it ironic that Kim and Sarah are about the same age but Sarah is aging beautifully while Kim isn’t? That’s because Kim has no inner peace and it shows.

“Sarah is really sweet but Sarah and Kim don’t get along. I get along with everyone. With both of them. Kim and I go back for years now. We were friends at one point. I was like “you wanted him, you got him now baby“. So she’s gotta go through all the bs I had to go through back in the day.

Sarah has been around as long as Kim, alot of people don’t know that. Puffy was cheating on me with both of them. This is over 15-16 years ago so we’ve all been around a long time. I joke around sometimes and say “They are like my sister-wives.” I try to keep everything good and we want Kim to accept Chance but she’s not ready yet . . . but I accepted Christian.

Misa on why she took Puff to court to increase her child support:

The money is relative to him. People say, “oh it doesn’t take that much”, you don’t know how much tuition is. You don’t know what the lifestyle is everyday. Our children (Thank God!!!) are able to have different extracurricular activities, they have tutors, they have programs that they are in. They have to have security which is very expensive on a weekly basis. There are alot of things that people don’t take in consideration that this money goes to. We don’t sit and get a check and throw it up in the air and say “yea what am I going to do with this today”.

Misa also goes on to say she thinks Puffy is still bitter and wants her (I doubt that):
Yes, he still is bitter. It’s like can I live. I have love for him and he’s my family and I’m going to always support him and have his back. But, when you can have everything sometimes and you can’t have that one little thing, you are not use to that. That’s so over. I’m not saying he’s actively trying to pursue me but I get a hard time sometimes. It’s like “what’s the problem”? You’d think I’d be the one acting like that. I stay out of your way.

What wasn’t going to happen to me before I went to court, is because I’m not with you or sleeping with you. Kim’s son is not going to get more than my son because of that. That was some bitchassness. Because if you could come and stay here and pop in and out when you wanted to then it wouldn’t be a problem. So you are not going to put me at a disadvantage because we are really broken up and I’ve moved on.
