Amid all the hate mail I received in my inbox yesterday, one loyal reader, Millie Smith, emailed to inform me that the young lady whispering into Barack Obama’s ear in my earlier post on presidential jump-offs, is apparently an Obama employee and close friend.
Her name is Desiree Rogers and she was appointed the position of party planner for the Obama administration. Her exact job title is: White House Social Secretary/ Special Assistant to the President.
I hollered when I read the last sentence in Millie’s email. She wrote: “Sorry she’s not the President’s jump off….”
And just how would Millie know that?
I’m sure one of Clinton’s friends said the same thing about Monica Lewinsky after the whispers started — and we know how that story ended.
I mean, let’s get real here:
Look at Desiree…
Now look at Michelle Obama…
Now look at Desiree again…
I mean, it’s a no-brainer. Well, maybe “brainer” wasn’t the proper choice of wording….
As I’ve said many times in the past, as long as a man is living and breathing — and I might add, able to stand upright — he’s fair game for a shrewd, social climbing jump-off.
The race is on to see who will capture the title of “First Jump-off.” My money is on Desiree since she’s already got the inside track.
Even blogger Sister Toldja agrees with me, and she and I rarely see eye to eye on anything concerning men.
This is going to be a fun 4 years!
Aww auntie come on. I thought u said u were going 2 be good
I am too tired to comment on this.
It is once again cold here and I am going to bed to snuggle up to hubby’s body heat.
Ok I changed my mind. This woman is what makes it happen. She is a party planner. Her job is to stir up the “powers” that be and have them in the same room to make the best decisions for “us”. She is the Party Planner and yes she is cute and so is her hair cut but we all know our First Lady don’t play that.
Do you think if we stop commenting on this bogus ish that maybe these types of posts wll go away??
Let’s try…no more commenting on Obama bashing posts!!
Now where’s the “fight the power” smiley???????
i doubt the posts will go away if we stop commenting . i think they will come full blast if we stop commenting .
anyway i don’t believe it . both women are beautiful. obama would be a fool to give up michelle. you pick a bad picture of michelle and compare it to some nice pictures of the other broad and that’s not fair. why not posts nice pics of both ?
Sandra Rose-?????????????????????????????
Ok I’m going to need a lesson in reaching today because I don’t see where Sister Toldja agreed with you at. She said they should invent a special position to keep sneaky women from Obama.I didn’t read anything about his special planner being his jump off. It also seemed more like a joke than rather than a negative prediction of a beautiful marriage failing. Some people don’t need negativity to make their world go round.

That’s what I’m hoping. Out.
Hello all. For what it’s worth, I believe Obama has too much love for his wife, his beautiful children and his fellow man to succumb to some “new pu$$y.” Plus, he’s wayyyyyyy to smart to make such a foolish mistake. I’m just saying……I was there yesterday on the mall with the millions and millions and I’m still giddy with love and excitment. This is a spiritual awakening for us all, especially for people of color. Peace.
I thought the coverage was good, but at one point I felt okay, I don’t want to see another hollywood CELEBRITY, I am celebritied out! They kind of took over the inauguration, I want to see BARACK and MICHELE that’s it.
Valid point, she is a pretty girl, that is provided that Barack is so shallow to rely on looks in the first place! Obviously Michelle was/is cute enough, after all she is wifey! Michelle would Superman her arse, as long as she knows that…………
she looks like that lady that was messing w/kwame kilpatrick. my fiancee has been saying it’s gonna be some drama w/the ladies. he says barack is going to have to insulate himself against most females and he’d better be really careful. it’s not so much what he would or wouldn’t do but the appearance of it.
And just for the record…
How smart do you think a Black man would have to be to make sure he lived his life…from darn near in-utero to position himself to be the first Black President?
Hint…smart enough to make sure he travelled the world before he picked the woman he wanted to marry…smart enough to make sure he sowed his wild oats before he did…smart enough to pick someone who is smart, gorgeous and elegant to boot…
And decent enough to know that he DOSEN’T want to make the same mistakes that his FATHER DID TO HIS MOTHER…
Which is why Auntie’s today, the President of the United States is….BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA!!!
HAIL TO THE CHIEF!!!

Thank you!!!…. lata
Is this supposed to be entertaining????
I figured today you would do better, but you haven’t.
This site sucks!
Yall have a good day!
OK… Flesh is weak. I am not going to say with any certainty whether I think a man/woman will cheat or not. I am not psychic and I do not claim to be.
Barack Obama seems to be very calculating and appears to be in control of the things in life. I don’t think he will risk anything with a random “jump-off” as there is too much at stake. If he is they type to cheat, believe me he has probably done it already and since we haven’t heard anything…he has done it well. I expect this trent to continue.
And that is all I have to say about that!!!
I really do wish you all would stop commenting on Sandra’s foolishness.
Sandra!!! You know this woman is the most powerful woman in Washington now next to Michelle. She is the secretary of “parties”. All the world leaders coming to town are catered for by her. She’s a single mom of a grown adult and a Chicago socialite.
Pls don’t call Sandra “Foolish.” This is nothing but an entertainment blog. No need for insults!!!
I really thought that Sandra was not going to be so negative this year! I understand that this is an entertainment blog but give please give President Obama a chance before you tear him down. We have a lot of work to do as a country. He needs our support not criticism. Just my opinion.
MSN had a feature on her yesterday. She happens to be a beautiful intelligent black woman… so that makes something wrong with her and unworthy of having a high position. Read her credentials before you judge. If she wanted to screw the man, she’s been having access to him for years (being that they are friends). Furthermore, she’ll really be working closer to Michelle than Barack. With the being sooo fuked up, I doubt he’s worrying about what color linens to use at the dinner table.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
“Rogers, 49, will be the first African-American to serve in the full-time position, one responsible for organizing and overseeing all White House functions and ceremonies.
Rogers is a longtime friend of the Obama family, worked on the campaign’s fundraising team and is especially close to Valerie Jarrett, another Obama confidant and someone who will be a senior adviser at the White House.
The former president of Peoples Gas and North Shore Gas is also on the board of trustees for both the Lincoln Park Zoo and the Museum of Science and Industry. She is part of Chicago’s effort to woo the 2016 Olympics and is a former director of the Illinois Lottery.
Rogers has a Harvard MBA and was once married to millionaire Chicago financier John Rogers.”
^^correction…
With the economy being so fuked up…
Even blogger Sister Toldja agrees with me, and she and I rarely see eye to eye on anything concerning men.
and….yourself and her have a right to you all’s opinion…because that’s all it is.
@#18.”This is nothing but an entertainment blog”….
Really? Good have fooled me, thought this was a political site!
michelle introduced them!!
quit hatin
This is isn’t entertainment..it’s slanderous, destructive, unfounded gossip. And I’m sick of it. Sandra, you have succeeded in giving me my first headache of the new administration. I do like the commentary between the bloggers, but I have seriously had enough of your negativity. I know you don’t care, but please know that what you put out into the universe you get back.
I’m so out of this site. So tired of a BLACK woman downing a smart,intelligent black man who happens to be my PRESIDENT. Please Sandra, do us all a favor and go back to London, oops I forgot they don’t want your ass either. If you don’t like it go the F—- home!!!!
Sandra DAMN I thought I would come on here and see actual entertainment subjects but here we are again with this Obama obsession of yours taking over the blog. First of all you are disrespecting our First Lady trying to say she isn’t prettier than Desiree Rogers. You then take it even further by basically calling Desiree the POTUS jump off.
Did you even Goggle Desiree Rogers? (@Mississippi Thanks because I was going to post the same info about Desiree)
She isn’t a socialite, she has held down HUGE jobs in Illinois and is on the board of several major companies. Did you bother to Google the position of Social Secretary? You try to make it like this was a position that was just made up for Desiree when in fact this position has been in the cabinet since before you or I was born. Desiree Rogers is a well respected high profile business woman in Chicago and it just pisses me off that here we have this lovely Black woman as the first woman of color to be appointed to this position and you just disrespect her as basically a tramp that’s there to have an affair because she’s attractive.
You are always quick to point the finger and judge stupid woman and thug immature men yet here we have intelligent, educated, attractive, well spoken, Ivy League women (Michelle and Desiree) and of course our POTUS and you find every reason in the world to try and clown them.
Did you question or compare the looks to Clinton’s social secretary? How about either Bushes? Carter? Nixon? Kennedy? Roosevelt? They all have had Social Secretaries too. Damn, we are always so quick to hate on our own. First the inaugaration was going to be “ghetto”, then the Social Secretary is a jump off. It’s getting just like a sickness with you at the length you will go to hate your own.
Auntie is so skeptical about these people because they aren’t her reality.
The concept of Ivy League, Successful, Beautiful, Black people running the world is a such a foriegn concept that it makes her angry. She feel like it’s a fraud.
On the other, black people who invest ALL of their wealth in a bunch of logos and weave and have the vocabulary of my 3 year old can get better review and posts that our President.
My wish for you in 09 is lots and lots of
. Be it male, female or battery operated.
Sorry Sandra, but I think your “Loyal Reader” was wrong. That picture is of Bernice King, daughter of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., talking to President Obama.

*************************************************
Sorry, but you’re wrong. That photo was taken off the AP website and it is not Bernice King. First of all, Bernice King does not wear her hair like that and secondly, she is not light skin.
The picture looks like Angela Bassett to me.
Peace
Look a Michelle Obama. Now, look at Sandra Rose.
It’s a no brainer.
I see same blog..same sh*t in the ’09. Sandra, your hatred and “knowledge” (and I use that word very loosely) about Obama and his inner circle would be perhaps a tiny bit credible if you had some REAL info. All you keep putting on your blog is speculation and your own opinions and beliefs about what you think MAY happen.
Report facts or keep it to yourself. Until Obama does creep (and I doubt he does) then let’s keep all the
speculation to a minimum.
I have never seen someone tear someone apart with such a mean-spirit and hate (and no proof of anything) than I have seen with you and Obama. It’s really sad.
Sandra you are really beginning to repulse me. Its unbelievable as old as you are and I do mean OLD you tend to act like a 5th grade boy! You go off on Beyonce and now the Obama’s the more venom you spew the more you show your ignorance!!!
How would YOU know that she IS a jump off?
Barack, Michelle, Michelle, Barack….NEXT!
oh sandra………*sigh* u can be so ridiculous sometimes.
I’m not gonna front, Sandra u do have a point. MSN.com posted an article on her yesterday and I compared the pic u had on your site (of her whispering in Barack’s ear) w/the ones on msn and yeah that’s indeed her. In the article it stated that she is a divorced mother of one child and she’s in her forties. I’m very optimistic about Barack resisting temptation to cheat but there’s still this little feeling that I have…well, I’m not going there. Anyway, Sister Toldja’s article was on point, I’m w/her 100%.
OK I don’t comment much but I for one am officially through with this website. So full of hate and ignorance. It’s a shame. I used to really love coming here for entertainment but it’s beginning to piss me off. I pray that everyone will not be lead by Ms. Rose’s ignorance. I’m sure to be banned now to God bless you all and Peace.
Annnnnd also, You better watch out Sandy. You are borderline slandering which can get you put out darling.
Blog: an online DIARY; a PERSONAL chronological log of thoughts published on a Web page (dictionary.com); usually maintained by an INDIVIDUAL with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events (Wikipedia)
I’ve been reading this BLOG for a while and it never ceases to amaze me at the comments that are made about Sandra’s postings. First yall crying and hollering at Sandra’s comments about Obama and the next minute yall pooting and pitching a fit when she turns the comments off.
I don’t agree with everything that is posted but why get your blood pressure up and judge someone saying they are hateful when they state their OPINION about a particular person (e.g., Obama or Beyonce)or topic?
A blog is not meant to report FACTS. If you want facts 24/7 and if you want to read stories that are held to a higher standard of reporting that may agree with YOUR opinion, please visit CNN, MSNBC or FOXNews.
So many of you talk about hatred but yet you spew hate when Sandra talks about Obama. I for one am soooo shocked that we (blacks) have put this man on a pedestal as if he can’t do any wrong. He’s a man…not God. Yes, he’s educated and has achieved what the world thought was impossible. But until he walks on water, turns water to wine or save me from sinful nature…I’m gonna stick with worshiping Jesus!
Sandra’s opinion is just that…HER opinion. If you don’t like it…change the channel.
Oh…I almost forget to write my comment for this posting: I sure hope that the black community’s worshiping of Obama doesn’t lead him to think that he can do no wrong. Look at Clinton…”we” labeled him our first black president all the while he was getting head from an intern (side note: his lying about it resulted in his impeachment)! Oh wait…we had a surplus budget…forget vows and morals! Desiree is cute, educated and obviously passed the background check…she has a lot going for her…what man could resist? LOL!
Sandra, you really have some serious issues. You are so doggone negative. It’s fine you don’t like Obama, ok we get it! However, why must you constantly dog the man and his family out? Yet, you consider Monica classy?? C’mon! She walks around looking like a man by the arms with her thuggish tatoos, but you want to talk about Barack and Michelle. Something is seriously wrong with you, I think.
Lol Sandra you are so wrong to use that picture of Michelle Obama. lol
Although I don’t believe your post, I don’t know why so many people are so shocked about it. It is no secret that you do not like the Obamas. To each his/her own.
I am in Chicago and Ms. Rogers is very respected here for all of her accomplishments and grace, she is well qualified for her job and I wish her the best.
Although I don’t think that Ms. Rogers is a threat and will not be a jump-off for anybody, including Mr. President, I do agree that some women are going to throw themselves at President Obama.
Women are drawn to men of power, but I don’t think Michelle would have to worry. Not to say that President Obama is perfect, he’s made up of flesh, blood and bones like the rest of us, but I do think that even if he is tempted, he would not do it. He has too much to lose and what would hurt him more is if he lose the respect of those two beautiful little girls.
Please continue to pray for our first family, our country and for President Obama’s safety. Have a blessed day, everyone!
