WaPo has an article today with a video of people from NH saying the same thing — they are befuddled because they were accused of voting for the ‘wrong person’ and they hate the backlash.. So they may just ‘stay home’.

GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, even if there is something big on Obama, you don’t think there may also be something big against Bush/Cheney, Newt, Bohner, etc. Time will tell, maybe not all.

Please, if there was the smallest drop of anything on Bush/Cheney it has already been dumped out there by the democrats. There hatred knows no bounds...no way they sit on it this long.

If The Powers That Be decide that Obama has to go, they will find or make up stuff pretty fast. Barry will never know what hit him.

“He’s not admitted to the Illinois Bar now. Anyone know specifically why? Neither, BTW, is America’s favorite linebacker, Michelle.”

Interesting, but could easily be completely innocuous. To be a member of the bar in most states (all that I know of anyway) one must pay basic annual bar dues, which may go to more than one agency within the bar association, and must stay current with Continuing Legal Education (CLE) requirements.

Some states bar associations also allow for voluntary inactive status for whatever reason - sabbaticals, being assigned or working overseas, pursuing additional degrees, whatever.

Anyway, if a barred attorney quits paying dues or taking CLE courses, or applies for inactive status, that attorney’s name disappears off of the bar roll, which represents active, qualified attorneys.

Again, I have NO IDEA if this is the status with these two or not, but their absence from the bar roll may be insignificant. USUALLY, anyone can call and find out in general how someone became inactive, especially if they were disbarred for some bad acts. I have little doubt with these two an inquirer would hit an institutional stone wall.
Perhaps not, if they went inactive in order to “sacrifice” for “public service”.

OK, I have a question. When part 1 of this interview was posted, the insider repeatedly said ‘Democrat Party’. It was poined out that that Dems consider that to be a slur. Someone questioned it and the thread disappeared. Now when I go back and re-read part 1, all references to the party now say ‘Democratic’.

What is up with *that*?

Best buddies. :)
It was in the Russia newspapers four days before the inauguration. Around that time, the UK and Israel also were mentioned as having some intel, too.

I’m very skeptical of this. It reminds me of the Quidnunc days, if you were around then in FR, which I doubt.

Oh, yeah. Sorry. Did you read any of these articles? What are your impressions? Some of the info in these articles is very disturbing and feels right, but I don’t want to fall into the same kind of hysteria as many of us did then.

Yes, I did. I believe its open to interpretation whether there is a "White House Insider" or not. Conceivably, the whole thing is a fabrication. But, conceivably, it's not.

In any event, are the reports and conclusions a revelation to us? I'd say no. Perhaps, it's just BS re-affirming what we already suspect. Perhaps, it's a total fabrication.

But, in either event, does that deny or alter what we already suspect? No. Not really.

This is a White House in very inexperienced, largely incompentent and likely perilous hands. And the staff around him does appear to be abandoning ship. And Hillary does, indeed, lurk in the background.

We don't need "White House Insider" to tell us any of this.

Makes for a good read, though...

I agree that these are interesting reads. (I read much more than 1 or 2:>) You are right that it probably doesn’t matter if it’s a construct or direct observation.
I think what is most disturbing is that much of it rings true, particularly the part about his giggling distraction during a meeting about Afghanistan. It fits perfectly with other information we have gleaned through Rolling Stone and such. There have been a number of truly disturbing events that support this idea of serious dysfunction in the White House, not the least of which are
1) the repeated use of the stupid car metaphor which reveals a complete tin ear and a drifting away from his vaunted rhetorical skills
2) the rumored use of a teleprompter even in private meetings with 6 people present
3) the aggressive and vile posture toward those he perceives as enemies, like, half the country or more
4) the race baiting
5) the reference the other day to Republicans riding in the back seat, a clear allusion to racial animus in this country years ago. It was payback, imho.
6) repeated references to violent acts to get what he wants, like bringing a gun to a fight, toward citizens of this country.
7) the odd mannerisms he’s developing, like the southern drawl, the dropping of the final consonants, the “hoody” beleagured hoarse diction that he’s adopted
8) the absolute obsession with appearing on as many venues as possible and the seemingly never ending need for narcissistic adoration. He doesn’t seem to be hiding the messiah complex anymore. He’s nurturing it.
Just sayin.’ Somethin’ bad goin’ on there.

Does this mean “Hillary VS Palin” 2012?

This would be the doomsday scenario for us. The ugly Hillabitch and her letch hubbie will pull the centralist card and beat us. I like our chances better with the idiot in charge now.

Respectfully, re-posts are often the only way I and others become aware of a news story or article. Sometimes, the more recent post may be from another source and contain better or different aspects.
