THE WHITE HOUSE

Office of the Press Secretary

THE PRESIDENT:  Please have a seat, everybody.  Good morning.  I thought it might make sense to take some questions this week, as my first term comes to an end.

It’s been a busy and productive four years.  And I expect the same for the next four years.  I intend to carry…

Politics made for strange bedfellows in those taking swipes at President Obama’s white guy appointees. Staunch GOP conservative Mike Huckabee took the first hard whack. He screamed that Obama was a hypocrite on diversity in that he used the issue of the war on women during the presidential campaign to pound the GOP and then turned around and stacked his cabinet with white males. The swing then went over the political spectrum…

There were two telling moments in the Second debate that passed under the media spin radar scope but pointed to something troubling for President Obama. GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney evoked God and defense of gun ownership. That was a subtle unstated reaffirmation of a political chit that Romney banks on. And that’s a wipeout of Obama with the rural vote. Then Democratic presidential candidate Barack…

GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney’s was hectored and battered mercilessly for his 47 percent don’t pay taxes slur, and shoot from the lip attack on President Obama’s alleged weak kneed kowtow to Islamic radicals in Libya and Cairo. But there are a lot of white guys that agree with him. They strongly believe that there are lot of deadbeats and freeloaders on the dole and that America is being pushed and bullied all…

The terrifying prospect that GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney would put George W. Bush back in the White House, if elected, came a step closer to reality with the public unveiling of his transition team. Bush won’t literally return to the White House under a Romney regime, but it’s close. The names of the transition team read like a who’s who of the Bush administration.

A tip off that Bush’s imprint…

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush, GOP political guru Karl Rove, and the parade of Hispanic and black speakers at the Republican National Convention either said or were testament to one belief and that’s GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney can’t win with just white votes. The rationale is simple he doesn’t have enough of them. The supposed standard break point for GOP presidential candidates to bag the White House is…

On August 3, 1980 then GOP Presidential contender Ronald Reagan picked his campaign starting point and his audience deliberately. The spot was the Neshoba County Fair, near Meridian Mississippi. The virtually lily-white, wildly enthusiastic throng that lined Reagan’s motorcade route waved Confederate and American flags.…

The word from GOP insiders close to presumptive GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney is that he will pick “a boring white guy” as his Vice Presidential running mate. That’s true for one obvious reason and…

A hanging effigy that looked suspiciously like President Obama on a flatbed truck in New York City  and the sign on the Peach Oyster Bar in Unincorporated Draketown, Georgia “I do not support the N… in the White House” normally could be chalked off as the by now pro forma crackpot bigotry of the…

Accused murderer of Trayvon Martin George Zimmerman almost certainly will eventually face a jury. And what if that jury is all white? A recent Duke University study showed that all white juries in Florida were more likely to convict a black defendant than mixed ethnic juries. Though Zimmerman isn’t…
