Obama Used Meeting with 9-11 Families to Film a Campaign Commercial (Vanity)
05/05/11

Posted on 05/05/2011 12:57:19 PM PDT by MissesBush

Oh my heavens--Debra Burlingame who lost her brother on 9-11 and met with Obama today at Ground Zero is on Hannity's show and she says he was being trailed by a videographer with a still and video camera while meeting and hugging the 9-11 victims families today. No press cameras were allowed, but Obama had his own cameras there. This whole thing was nothing but the filming of a campaign commercial for Obama. That's why he did this, to tape a campaign spot. Can you imagine anything more disgusting and craven?

If it was not a public event, and it sounds like it was not since the media was barred, then the invitees have a right to privacy and the video should be destroyed or else the invitees can and should sue.

IANAL.

Obama to America:

Meet you’re neo-communist, muslim occultus, left-wing liberal, utopian society, marxist-leninist, novus ordus seclorum, affirmative action summate, elusive, clandestine, Soros-plant, old school Ayer’s absconditus, Alinskian disciple and-then-some infiltrate president!

That may have been a fire fighter. The fire fighters union has been taking the lead on the public union fight for continued collective bargaining rights. The police can’t really do the job and the teachers are already viewed as adversaries of the tax payers. The fire fighters can make threats that the tax payers have a difficult time dealing with.

Remember the campaign to nationalize all the first responder unions under a single union that was hidden in the 9/11 first responder health care bill? It didn’t make it through Congress, but it wasn’t because Obama didn’t try to push it.

Nothing new here-it’s all for the glory of our Dear Leader. It’s a characterisic shared by all despots, even the wannabes. Their egos place them in the center of the universe.
Look at their memoirs: Bush-”Decision Points” (he told Bill O’Reilly that people didn’t want to read about him.); Obama-”Dreams from MY Father”; Reagan-”An American Life”; Clinton-”My Life”. They can’t help it, they’re cripled by their narcissm.

“I feel sorry for the families who allowed Barry to use them as part of his “end zone celebration” while he “spiked the ball”. Shame.”

Is it racist to use a football metaphor since so many black men play football or is it OK since Obama used it first? I’m so confused.

The Democrats raised hell for a week when Bush used a photo of him looking out the window of AF1 on 9/11 ... I wonder if their hypocrisy meter will even register Obama using Ground Zero and families of 9/11 victims as a photo op.

Obozo is a very busy man, spiking the ball on the heads of the families of 9/11 victims.

He turned his back on on woman and walked away

Now if she had worn a burka and had a proper escort, the conversation may have gone a bit differently.

It will backfire when paired against Democrat howls of George Bush "politicizing 9-11."

No it won't because the MSM will make sure that it won't.

” he really disliked talking to people that he regarded as conservatives.”

That’s because he knows we can see right through him, and won’t be dissuaded!

we have to remember the American media sets the issues and conversations.

They will in no way ever let any issue hurt their messiah, they are already trying to hide the face that obama ordered OBL get a respectful religious sending off.
That CIA members are still facing charges when it is they who got the info which led to the seal team to kill OBL.

Seem the media will always cover for him and lie for him because they got him there and want to keep him there.

Now the media will keep doing this and get worse until the GOP get some balls and keep calling them out every day , a hundred times a day on every interview a republican gives...

If they don’t then expect obama to get another 4 years and if you think this 4 years has been bad just wait till he won’t have anything to lose in those 4 years

That's why the MSM hates Talk Radio, FoxNews, Drudge, etc.

He can be filming the event for his private use later when out of office. Though I doubt it.

However, I dare the Obama team to use it for their tv ad. In fact I triple dog dare them.

It is my understanding tht every president is filmed at all times he is in public.

I was just going to post that very same thing. It is really quite an honor among photojournalists to be chosen white house photographer. Some of them get unbelievable access to world changing events. Most of the the time they take pictures of handshakes.

In this day and age, I would think the videographers are right behind the White House Staff Photographer.
