Since they told us it’s a ‘different’ William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright and Michael Jordan, I guess it’s a different Malik Shabazz than this one:

#####

Because as a sophisticated progressive, he needs to assuage his white guilt, and confirm his self-worth and enlightened perspective by showing support for the...wait for it...first black President

Gates is the greediest capitalist pig in the history of the world. Obama and his communist buddies will make quick work of him and his fortune after the communists gain total control. Maybe he was seeking favorable treatment?

Unbelievable.

Excerpt:

The log chronicles 481 visits to the White House from individuals ranging from Jay-Z to Bill Gates from January through July.

The list includes William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Michael Moore, Robert Kelly (R. Kelly), Malik Shabazz, and Michael Jordan.

-snip-

One thing is clear: Service Employees International Union President Andrew Stern holds sway at the White House, where he’s listed for 22 visits—the top number on the logs. Visitors in the top 10 also include former Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta, former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, National Organization for Women President Kim Gandy, and NARAL Pro-Choice America President Nancy Keenan...

Lighten up, folks. I’m sure all these visitors went through the Congress critter to score the public visiting tickets. There’s nothing nefarious about having this rogues gallery of anti-American commies traipsing through the people’s house. They’re just on the public tour.

I noticed there are a lot of “Group Tours” with these visitors including Stern.

“Group Tour” must be code for something.

you don't understand communism.....communism has a elite rich class....they remain in power and grow in power....

communism is about controlling the middle class and taking away any chance to move up in the world, except if you are a party faithful....

prosperity not by merits, or genius, or ambition, or talent, or even luck....prosperity by being a party hack...

communism if nothing else leaves the ultra rich to their ultra rich ways...they just prevent the other people from ever getting there.....

“Andy Stern talks health care with Obama”

At 1:00 mark:

*******************************************

“Union President Stern the Hand in Obama’s Puppet?”

The L.A. Times had a very interesting piece last week on the unusually close relationship between Service Employees International Union President Andy Stern and President Obama. The story revealed how Stern “enjoys unusual access to the White House,” and how often Stern is invited to attend meetings the administration holds on policy even as other union heads are left out of the loop.

The piece does cast some doubt on just how much clout Stern might have with Obama as several of the initiatives he has pushed hard for have yet to come to fruition — but it should also be remembered that this administration is only 6 months old. There is plenty of time, here.

Though it does not develop the theme, here is where the Times piece shows the danger that Andy Stern’s close connection with Obama presents to the country and its various governments, federal and state both.

The SEIU’s access to the White House also has left California officials unsettled. Earlier this year, the Obama administration invited the SEIU to take part in a conference call centering on a dispute over pay cuts to home healthcare workers represented by the union. State officials said the union’s involvement in a government-to-government conference seemed inappropriate.
Inappropriate? You bet. But Obama indulged his buddy Stern anyway.

So, where is the danger? Andy Stern’s SEIU is the biggest union in the country that represents government workers of all sorts. If Stern can translate his close relationship to the administration into cajoling and strongarming more and more government workers into his union, Stern will (and already has to a great extent) become an unelected, fourth branch of government in every state of the union as well as Congress.

Before any government budget is decided, before any responsible cut in spending is considered, government officials all across the land have to go to Andy Stern, hat in hand, to ask him if they are allowed to cut costs. This is a check on government power that the voters have absolutely no say whatever in affecting. This is a power that is illegitimately in the hands of a self-interested union thug that could not care less what “good government” means nor what is best for the tax payers. In fact, his interest is to screw the tax payers as much as possible, yet he is being handed almost total veto power on state and federal budgetary concerns. The closer to Obama he gets, the more his clout grows and the more powerful he becomes, legitimate or not.

This man is a danger to the whole country.

“Obama’s curiously close labor friendship”

SEIU chief Andy Stern enjoys unusual access to the White House, but some in the fractious labor movement question its value.

“...But the moment was a victory, as well, for another man invited to the event that morning in May. Andy Stern heads the SEIU, the union that helped corral the industry groups, and his presence at the White House was a fresh sign of his formidable clout with Obama.

When the president met privately with the health industry leaders that day, Stern and a second Service Employees International Union official were the only labor representatives in the room...”

The problem is, traditionally, communist leaders tended to live “proletarian” lives. Mao initiated the “squatty” which still dominated public buildings today. The Soviets were scared to death to be seen as rich. The bad guys are not the communists. They are the Armand Hammers, the George Soroses and the other Uber Riche who control these monsters. By the way, Armand Hammer's best friend in Washington was a US Senator by the name of Al Gore, Sr. Mr. Hammer, it turns out, was a soviet spy. He also owned the Pepsi franchise in the USSR. Double agent...Money is money and politics is politics. They are not the same.

“Since they told us it’s a ‘different’ William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright and Michael Jordan, I guess it’s a different Malik Shabazz than this one”

Also while they’re on their transparency mode, pehaps they can ask these “different” William Ayres and Jeremiah Wrights and George Soros to step forward.

How did all those terrorists get clearance to be in the White House? Ayers is a bomb making, cop killer. His first girlfriend even blew up in one of Ayers’ bombs, didn’t she? Then he met Bernadine? Anyway, one of their groupies blew up in the townhouse explosion.

I was gonna ask if there’s any correlation between the date of one of the SEIU visits and the date the guy was attacked in St Louis. How’s he doing BTW? Is there going to be a lawsuit?
