Obama's sister, Maya said,

"There was always a joke
between my mom and
Barack that he would be
the first black president."

 

Now the joke's on us.

Priorities In the same week that Obama targeted 5.2 billion in taxpayer funds for his buddies at ACORN, he ordered the  military's Joint Chiefs of Staff to cut the Pentagon's budget request for the fiscal year 2010 by more than 10 percent -- about $55 billion -- a senior U.S. defense official tells FOX News.

Last year's defense budget was $512 billion.  Service chiefs and planners will be spending the weekend "burning the midnight oil" looking at ways to cut the budget -- looking especially at weapons programs, the defense official said.

He's just doing what he said he was going to do. (video)
Remember This? During the campaign, Obama said, "We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," Obama said.

"That’s not leadership.  That’s not going to happen."

That was back in May of 2008.  Now?

On his first full day in the White House, President Obama was photographed in the Oval Office without his suit jacket.  There was, however, a logical explanation: Mr. Obama, who hates the cold, had cranked up the thermostat.

"He’s from Hawaii, O.K.?" said Mr. Obama’s senior adviser, David Axelrod, who occupies the small but strategically located office next door to his boss.  "He likes it warm.  You could grow orchids in there."

It's good to be king.
Redistribution "...when I talk about the middle class, I'm talking about folks who are currently on the middle class, but also people who aspire to be in the middle class.  We're not forgetting the poor.  They are going to be front and center, because they, too, share our American Dream.  And we're going to make sure that they can get a piece of that American Dream..."

Obama's plan to punish success is straight from Karl Marx -- "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs."  He has even conflated the middle-class and the poor -- in  Obama's America there are now two classes, the bourgeoisie and proletariat  

Of course, Obama has his book millions in a "quasi-blind trust" -- exempt from his stimulus (tax the rich) plan.
