Mr. Daley??? ..What is that big HOLE in the ground behind you in the picture above????

Is that the "Ground Zero" DEMOLISHMENT at the center of World Trade??

..or is that the economic sink-hole created for America by Barack Obama during his first term in office???

It looks VERY deep!!

Hey! ..I guess you are happy that YOU are not in it!!

My suggestion to all venture philanthropists is to participate in ''The Rolling Jubilee'' movement.

Buy 1 Million Dollars worth of debt for 50,000 Dollars and abolish it. Imagine what Bill Gates and Warren Buffett could do if they each donate 1 billion Dollars to this cause. With 2 billion Dollars 40 billion Dollars of debt could be immediately wiped out.

Charlie, the next four years?

Obama had to fight just to save the last four years.

Stephen Colbert took in all of Mitt's "day one" promises and whipped out his day planner to see just how much the candidate could really fit into one day.

Hurricane Sandy was the October surprise because it lifted the President and completely overshadowed Benghazi.

The President was transformed from the man to "Hail To The Chief".

Charlie, when you mentioned that he was there for the Grand Bargain you did not ask about what Nancy Pelosi had told you.

So what is the truth about the revenue request? Can he confirm Nancy's story?

Charlie, you asked how he would reach out and he said more activities at Camp David.

In June of last year that weekend marked Obama's 17th visit to Camp David since taking office.

President George W. Bush made use of Camp David far more often. At that same point in his presidency, he had been to the heavily-guarded mountaintop hideaway 62 times.

By the end of his 8 years in office, Bush's visits totaled 149 and spanned all or part of 487 days, that's well over a year.

So Malia and Sasha are known to have school & sporting events in town but perhaps they can take them to Camp David this term and save America. Of course, the President will have to invite along all the usual suspects to make it work.

Charlie asks if Obama has enough BUSINESS people around him.

We are told it is very difficult to get people to serve based upon what they have to give up. Now is the time to say he is our President. Work with the President and let’s get things done.

Charlie, the answer is "Yes" from "The Economist":

"And for all his shortcomings, Mr Obama has dragged America’s economy back from the brink of disaster, and has made a decent fist of foreign policy. So this newspaper would stick with the devil it knows, and re-elect him."

On Bill Clinton we are told that he played an enormous role and had a successful eight years. They did impeach him but they still got things done.

WOW! And he was our first Black President too.

Ken Starr, who is now President of Baylor, spent $70M on trying to get Bill. That alone is too difficult to let go even if "they still got things done".

Mr Daley makes the vitriol, demonization and outright hate that was spewed out by the Democrat machine in the service of Barrack Obama seem like just another day at the office. As one has said before Mr Daley is an amoral purveyor of situational ethics who was standing at the shoulder of Al Gore when he called foul after the fact to the election process in 2000.

In NAZI Germany evil liked to paint its face with the normalacy of the ordinary Mr Daley.

Well, both candidates made concessions to the other side, but it remains to be seen whether it means anything. Daley, however, seems to understand nothing except machine politics.

Typically, the Dems are making this an ad hominem deal. Can't seem to understand that personalities don't matter, or that no one hates them the way they hate others, since they've been conditioned from birth to consider acceptance more important than self-reliance. The president ran a vicious campaign to fan class, race and gender resentment, and he ought to reconsider any future remarks about Hugo Chavez, or "purple" nationhood. Talk about hypocrisy. As The Post, itself, remarked, he ran a partisan campaign to buy more time for bi-partisanship. Makes a lot of sense.

As four years ago it won't matter who's president if ppl cannot comport themselves any better than this. But, like a kindergarten crybaby, I imagine he is trying to set himself up as the victim in expected clashes over budgets. Nevertheless, nearly all the result can be explained by those voting for his re-election's involvement in the govt's boom and bust policies, and the need for still more help. The majority simply followed the money.

I read someone complaining that Romney's ordering a Quarter Pounder in Wendy's showed how out-of-touch with common humanity he was, but what can you say about a Southside Chicago community organizer who nearly never left his Hyde Park abode, and has rarely condescended to talk to the press or meet with Congressppl? Or, in fact, a mayor, who, we've read, was up to his eyeballs in Obama's corrupt real estate deals?

A lot of Dems complain about campaign spending but that pales in comparison with the unlimited vote-buying of our fiat money and budget-less administration. The fact is that the red states are those which have done fairly well on their own the past few decades, while the blue states have become govt dependencies in one way or other. It would appear the economic prediction models erred because they underestimated the extent of the dependency, not due to the facts. This was probably true in 1936 as well. The country is in recession already, never mind fiscal cliffs. And it will make no difference, certainly no positive difference, to soak the wealthier among us.

Altho unacknowledged by the press, this contest was much closer than last time, belied by the electoral college vote actually, because of population concentrations favoring the Dems. The GOP won by much greater margins in the red states, than the Dems in the blue ones. And the only demographics trending Democratic are 30-44-yr-olds and Hispanics. Blacks, whites, males, females, youth and older ppl all going Republican. Netanyahu is no less disappointed than the NYT and WP, which would like more guns, as well as, butter.

Clinton's convention oratory IMHO was one of the most disingenuous and/or stupid productions I've ever witnessed.
