Get Ready To #AskObama Why The Country's Credit Card Is Maxed Out

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The biggest farce of the day is about to unfold as Obama holds a "twitter hall" meeting in which he will accept questions, pre-cleared and moderated by Twitter itself, which means congratulations, about the economy and jobs. The town hall can be accessed by using the #AskJobs hash tag or at the website below. As usual, this will be merely another PR debacle in which everyone participating will see the questions which are not being answered, and ignore the softballs lobbed at the teleprompter in chief.

The live streaming is beginning:

The townhall site:

Some more details on the format:

While questions must be asked in the 140 character limit imposed by Twitter, the president will have free range in his answers. Shortened summaries of Obama’s responses will be posted to @townhall.

Twitter co-founder and Executive Chairman Jack Dorsey will read the questions and the president will offer his responses to an audience of 140 in the East Room of the White House, although the majority of the questions will come from Twitter users across the country, not from within the room.

Roughly 30 members of the audience will be Twitter followers from across the nation picked through the White House’s “Tweetup” page.  The VIPs will live tweet the event and get a chance to meet with senior policy officials afterwards, according to the White House.

shouldn't he be ending a war of opportunity somewhere?
or heading up a list of war criminals, treasonous profiteers,
incarcerating some neo-cons; rather than campaigning and
bullshitting with his base on twitter? i want to know how
wtc-7 collapsed and the complete failure of its structure was
covered up in plain view of the idiot justice department and
others? and why do we have to live in crime syndicate nation
when we have a potentially viable legal system and government
if it were not for politicians like himself being in the
pocket of the international fiat financiers who arb the destruction
of culture to pocket nearly nothing? and, did his mama raise
a fool?

i think we lost our country right after the civil war. there was further degradation during the subsequent years and then came the FED act in 1913,  that kind of sealed the deal. FDR continued the damage. JFK wanted to stop the damage and he wasn't around long.

yeah the War of Northern Agression started the destruction of "that damn piece of paper" as the former clown in chief called it. The Fed and 'patriot act' have all but made it a 'barborous relic'...can't fix it at the ballot box, fix it with the ammo box!

i agree. but i must have help. i am not going alone. at least i want a fighting chance. maybe 50/50 would work for me. i will not burn myself or fly my plane into a irs building. my life must be given for a good cause and for a purpose and if it must be given, then many must help out in this great cause. this is the only way. lone wolves are easy prey. the time for talking is over now. the system is broken and cannot be fixed. in the history of rebellion in this country, that is so rightfully ours, as it is in no other place in this world, we must do what others have done before in this country. the enemy is within the gates. he must be dealt with here, not on some foreign land where the innocent are slaughtered for nothing, by soldiers who volunteered because they couldn't find a real job and who are mislead by lies, by a corrupt and immoral government. my God what would Jefferson do under these circumstances? what we have become is a international embarrassement and a embarrassment to ourselves and to our posterity. May God in His infinite Wisdom give us His Grace in this terrible hour.

exactly...what few people realize is that statesmanship is dead...it was alive during the war of Northern Agression (it was not a civil war the union had been dissolved). The likes of Robert E. Lee, say what you want, he was a statesman. We need men like Lee, Jefferson, Sam Adams. I don't believe that any number of lone wolf attacks will do anything but discourage the masses to organize after they see the example that leviathan makes out of them. I would only orphan my children for a cause worthy of them to remember why they lost their father... so that they could lead a better life. After all, that is all we really want is a better life for our children. That is what it all boils down to in the end. The fact our children will be worse off than we are speaks volumes about the predicament we find ourselves in. A good story that even gives me a spark of hope in my god forsaken neck of the woods is this story here...remember the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. I pray god has mercy on our souls as this seems to be shades of things to come as times grow worse.

Tell you what Doyle. I am 60 years old. I have a history of physical fitness. Always have. I try and stay in shape for the day when it will be needed. I am veteran. I know what I need to do. There are many like me. Waiting. The young people of this country must understand something. This world is their world, not mine. It was mine at one time and I , like my fathers before me , fell asleep while on watch on the walls of fortress America. To this I plead guilty. I am sorry for this. I cannot make it go away , as if it is some dream when you wake up. What has been done  has been done. What has been neglected, has been neglected. What citizenship that was supposed to be there and wasn't, has been lost forever. I cannot change this. But what I can do is offer my life for the young people as a payment for this national sin that I , myself, hold myself , accountable for. This I intend on doing when the time comes. But the time must come. The young people of this country must understand. The days of the their fathers are over. Their world will not be as it was in my world. I hope they understand this. With the internet and the movement of information at the speed of light, yes, perhaps, there is hope now as no other time in my known memory. I myself, have always been about 80 percent woke up , so to speak, and have always had a healthy distrust of government. Yes I long to be like Samuel Adams. He almost single handedly got that party started up on Boston that time. What a man he was. He was a old man like me, but still had his fire in his belly , a fire, that was not the fire in the minds of men, as in the French revolution, but a fire that was intrinsically American in nature, a fire for liberty and freedom, something we Americans have taken for granted for so long, a fire that cannot be extinguished. I have had the fire, a fire that burns inside of me for many years now, as I woke up one day in late 2004, and the blinders fell off of my eyes and I had that moment in my life like so many others have had, when the truth hit me square in the face that everthing I ever thought I knew, everything that I have thought i understood, was all one big freakin lie. I know this now. I understand it. I realize what must be done. The task before us is not a simple one. But it must be done. The task before us will require much killing and death and destruction, but it must be done. The task before us, will require much work beyond the immiginations of any generation that has ever come before us.But this task must be done. So many have said yes to the few shekels thrown their way and remain silent when they should stand up for God and country but refuse to do so. There is no honor and no integrity. The young people of this country must understand that this land is their land now, from sea to shining sea. They as well as we all must be willing to do what is necessary to redeem her in her hour of need. If we do nothing, I can promise you all, you will not like what is coming. If you do not see it , then you must remove your rose colored glasses and see it as it is. The days are short and the time is short for this land, a land that my fathers fought for and died for. There was much death in the HPD family for this land. But for me, I give my life for her, with only one stipulation. That it means something. Where is George now and Samuel now and Thomas now, in this dark hour? I know they are out there. It is in the blood. It is part of your heritage.  When good men do nothing evil flourishes. This is your world. This is your land. This is your country. What say you ?  During the days of the Revolution , George Washington refused to allow older men to join his little rag tag army. I guess he figured they would get in the way.  But i am here to tell you that they also, gave it all in ways that are not talked about much in history. Like the old man who stood his ground at Lexington green that cold winter morning in 1775, jonas parker. He stood his ground and when told to disburse, while everyone else started backing off, he told the brits to fuck off and refused to move and was shot and run through with the bayonet for his trouble. The older men also participated in guerilla attacks on enemy supply columns, etc. So yes, when the time comes now, many of us shall be ready. But the weight of the battle must be born by the younger men and women. It is their world now. There is much to gain and much to lose. I sure hope they understand this. i apologize for the lack of citizenship on my part and the lack of citizenship on the parts of my fathers and their fathers before them. But this time, these problems cannot be passed to the next generation as so many have done before. They must be dealt with now, in this time. Either they are dealt with now, or we shall cease being a country. They are, to put it mildly, just that damn serious.

I too am a veteran , Drifter (by the way loved that movie, filmed at Mono Lake). I am in generation x though. My father and a good friend of mine, both 65 and both Vietnam Vets, are both of the mind much like yourself. They both are of the mindset hey we have lived long lives are children are grown, and should the need arise they are prepared to give their life and take as many assholes with them as they have to. One of the greatest miscalculations of the the powers that be was to send us to fight their wars. It is very difficult for them to put in place their oppression with so much of the populace being of a military background and armed to the teeth. I woke up after leaving service on disability in 2003. I had a lot of time on my hands and like you the blinders were stripped from my eyes. I started reading of liberty, and of tyranny. I found out what we had here was slaves willingly handing the executioner a rope to hang them while all the while spouting how 'free' they really were. i wish we had someone with the fortitude of the Founders, and perhaps the closest we have is Ron Paul and the writings of Murray Rothbard. I have done my best to properly educate my children despite the public school system and the me, me , me hippies that overran the system when those boomers came of age and put their useless degrees to work to take the socialist revolution to the classrooms and universities of America. As a collective I do blame the baby boomers for our problems because they sold us down the river. They were/are the most self centered if it feels good do it generation ever (of course the current generation will have that title for sure before it is all done). That being said people like yourself, my father, my friend, and countless others who went on fought the corporate wars for the powers that be understand what America is and what it should be. I pray that it doesn't end in bloodshed and death, I mean no one ever wants that. The system has grown too unsustainable and become too oppressive to bear though, and we are past the ballot box remedy at this time. So we either have to organize under the guise and cover of like minded people or we have to stand in line and wait to be sent to Auschwitz. Those are our choices. There are no longer any other alternatives. The who, when, and how will happen soon enough. I appreciate yopur honesty Drifter, and I would be proud to stand beside you when the time comes.

i'm in. thinking and connecting dots. the only way as it is
a group thing as you say. the consciousness of the group need be
elevated on a foundation. the money is the foundation and it is
in the hands of the enemy. the group has to deal with this cause
money is a conceptual thing buried in the subconscious mind of the
group. so we are tasked with bringing it up to the conscious level
and taking control of its value. i'm in.
end the fed. they work for people outside of the effects of
their mandate. treason at the top !
end the fed. and their debt ! and notes ! stop their music !

Never thought I would say this...the fed is doing a good job of destroying itself with all the worthless paper they have, all the back door liquidity deals. I agree the fed has no place in the long term scheme of things and that it should be ended willingly rather than by default. That being said, the point now is to get as many usable resources into the hands of like minded people so when the fed does end be it voluntarily or by collapse enough people of our minds are in possession of the tools to step in and fill the vacuum with a sound currency and enough resources to where we cannot be starved out, those include firepower, rations, and most of all knowledge in both tactics and liberty. Remember the Continental Congress had no authority to do what it did, yet they became the law of the land. Actual people supporting the revolt were less than 30% of the population. The right people came together and were in the lead. It can happen again.

I can understand the criminals at the top of the crime syndicate doing this, but my question is how can the douche bags at Twitter et al do this with a straight face?  I mean, I know that most people that work at places like "twitter" are homo's, peace niks, basically, losers, but how can they participate in such a farce and keep a straight face?    Who do these homo's think they are kidding?  Seriously?  Is the majority of the population really that stupid? 

What we need people is a real civil war-----one that puts all these nerdy liars back where they belong!  Honestly, I think "god" created wars to "weed out" or "thin out" the losers from time to time.  The problem is we have gotten so politically correct and so protective of the "weak" that they have "inherited the earth".  Pretty soon we will all be wearing white clothes and talking "fag"---aka, twitter.  It is time for real men to stand up and take this country back from the losers, misfits, and homos!  Thin, weak, girly sounding men that play on computers all day should be lined up and shot-----its time for the truth tellers to take control of this country ---- take it back from the weak, homos like that thin faggot moderating this dog and pony show.  People of America should be ashamed if this is the best we can do!

Dear President Soetoro,

What advice would you give on starting my own scam?  You seem to be an expert at con-jobs.

Love,

Your secret admirer

Dear Feckless Leader:

Do you have any idea how ridiculous this charade looks? And, part 2, have you no shame ?

What a f*cking joke.  The founder(s) of twitter are all big time democrat fundraisers.  I bet you won't hear about that at this "event", nor in the press reports of it.

Hey Mr. President.   Just where does all the money that Mr. Bernanke has come from? 

If he can create infinite money, why is your IRS shaking me down for half of every dollar that I make?

I grew up in new england where they still do town meetings. This farce is to actual town meetings what mcdonalds is to health food; i.e. friggin antithetical. Pre-screened questions? Twitter? Am I living on Jupiter?

in between working on your jump shot and your golf score, as Senator, why did you say that raising the debt ceiling was just admitting and allowing for failed financial policies.....and why call it a ceiling , if the roof is always open

I prefer Himbo-in-Chief over The Teleprompter. The latter is too soft an insult.

Too bad the Tweeters won't be giving the answers.  That would be far more worthwhile.
