Obama’s $25B Bank Deal May Result in Banks Seizing Homes

President Obama gave homeowners some hope when he announced a one year moratorium on home foreclosures while he negotiated with the greedy bankers late last year.

But yesterdays announcement of a new $25 billion dollar settlement with the banks over fraudulent home foreclosures may result in homeowners losing their homes immediately.

Come on, did you really think President Obama was going to bail out homeowners the way he bailed out the bankers?

According to Bloomberg.com, the new settlement will result in an increase in home seizures that will inflict “short-term pain on delinquent U.S. borrowers while making a long-term housing recovery more likely.”

“With yesterday’s agreement,” Bloomberg notes, “banks are likely to resume property seizures.”

Rapper Angry at Mitt Romney for Using His Song

According to the Huffington Post, Rapper K’Naan is angry with Republican presidential frontrunner Mitt Romney for using his song “Wavin’ Flag” during his Florida primary victory speech on Tuesday.

In a statement Wednesday, K’naan says Romney’s campaign didn’t seek approval to use the song and that he would not have granted permission if it had.

The Somali-born, Canadian-based rapper says he would happily grant President Barack Obama’s campaign the use of the song.

But Romney’s camp defends the usage of the song under a blanket copyright license that covers songs performed by candidates or played over public address systems.

It seems odd that K’naan — also known as the Dusty Foot Philosopher — offered his song free of charge to the Obama administration. I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama didn’t have a hand in this. I never heard of K’naan or “Wavin’ Flag” until today. K’naan should be grateful that Romney gave his song free pub.

Listen to the song after the break.

Poll Predicts Huge Obama Losses

According to a new Gallop poll out yesterday, President Obama will suffer huge losses in red states no matter who the GOP candidate is.

From the Washington Examiner:

Gallup released their annual state-by-state presidential approval numbers yesterday, and the results should have 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue very worried. If President Obama carries only those states where he had a net positive approval rating in 2011 (e.g. Michigan where he is up 48 percent to 44 percent), Obama would lose the 2012 election to the Republican nominee 323 electoral votes to 215.




 

Mitt Romney Wins Big in Florida; What This Means for Obama

GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney won a decisive victory over the struggling Newt Gingrich in the Florida primary last night.

A victorious Romney urged his Republican supporters to focus on defeating President Obama, declaring, “I stand ready to lead this party and to lead our nation.”

Romney’s ecstatic supporters included Blacks and Hispanics — the same demographic that helped President Obama seal his historic victory in 2008. Many of Obama’s former supporters have switched parties due to their lack of confidence in the Democrats.

So what does this mean for Mr. and Mrs. Obama? Well, let’s be realistic here: it means they should start packing the small things first.

The president and the first lady have accumulated a lot more possessions than they had when they originally moved into the White House 4 years ago, i.e. gifts from world leaders and such.

According to Goodhousekeeping.com, they should see moving “as an opportunity to organize and purge.” They should consider donating or selling items that they don’t want or need — rather than dragging all that stuff back to their home in Chicago.

Roseanne Barr Calls Jay Z and Beyonce ‘Arrogant’ in Twitter Rant

Yesterday, one of my Twitter.com followers informed me that comedienne Roseanne Barr went IN on Beyonce and President Obama for disrespecting Etta James while she was alive. It seems Miss Barr took offense to Obama giving Beyonce the honor of performing Etta’s classic “At Last” for his first dance.

Miss James herself expressed outrage at the snub. Particularly since Beyonce did such a horrible job of singing. Everyone agreed that Miss James would have done the song more justice than fame whore Beyonce.

But Roseanne Barr settled the score for Etta on Saturday when she tweeted:

“i have not listened to anything beyonce or jay z has said or recorded since they did that to Etta. Their arrogance was disgusting.”

Roseanne also dissed Beyonce’s singing, her lacefronts and her fake azz all in one classic tweet!

Naturally, Beyonce’s deranged Stans, who have nothing else to do with their boring lives, came for Miss Barr on Twitter with all the ferocity and venom of a pitbull with rabies.

And Roseanne pushed back!

She didn’t mince her words either! She let those fools have it with blasts from both barrels of her B*tch Be Gone shotgun! I wish I could have gotten in on the fun on Saturday. But it’s never too late to show Beyonce’s Stans for the desperate, lonely, psycho losers that they all are.

After the break, I have compiled more of my favorite Roseanne Barr tweets for your entertainment pleasure. Enjoy! :D

CURL: Obama doesn’t want a second term in office

According to Washington Post political analyst, Joseph Curl, U.S. President Barack Obama doesn’t want a second term in office. With less than a year to go before the 2012 presidential elections, Mr. Obama’s re-election campaign efforts have been virtually silent.

Curl writes:

There are only two ways to look at the Obama re-election campaign right now: Either the upstart candidate who stunned the world when he defeated the Clinton machine to capture the Democratic nomination three years ago has lost every bit of that massive mojo, or the bruised and battered president, after three years in office, just doesn’t want another spin in the Oval Office.

It’s obvious from Obama’s words and actions over the past two years that Obama is ready to throw the towel in and return to the private sector along with his wife and children.

From the day he was elected, Mr. Obama has made it clear to the American public that all he really wanted was to make history. Obama, who is considered by many to be a narcissist, didn’t sign up to work hard or to put up with disgruntled Americans seeking jobs and a stimulated economy.

Democratic strategists Patrick H. Caddell and Douglas Schoen don’t want to see Obama run for re-election. “He should step aside,” they wrote, “for the one candidate who would become, by acclamation, the nominee of the Democratic Party: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.”




 

Cain Accuser Works for the Obama Administration

One of the women who accused presidential candidate Herman Cain of sexual harassment in the 1990s now works for U.S. President Obama.

You scoffed when I mentioned in this post, dated Oct. 31, that Obama was behind these scandalous allegations.

“Obama???? what makes you think its not his own party???” wrote loyal reader Carmez79 in the comment section. Another loyal reader, Jessie, commented, “I don’t believe for one minute that this revelation came from the Obama camp.”

According to the NY Post, Karen Kraushaar, a 55-year-old former journalist who currently works for the Obama administration, was outed yesterday as one of the three women who had filed sexual harassment complaints against Cain.

But wait it gets better.

According to the AP, after she settled her claim against Cain for $35K, Kraushaar then moved on to her next job where she promptly filed yet another complaint with the help of the same lawyer!
