I already put this up as a headline: after Romney announced he was visiting New Orleans, Obama announced plans to visit on Monday.
When the story got around, Jay Carney announced that really, it had been planned all along. They thought of it first.
The only problem? In the story linked above, Politco notes that …
Obama campaign spokeswoman Jennifer Psaki told POLITICO earlier Friday that the president had no plans yet to visit the Gulf state and review damage from Hurricane Isaac, even though Mitt Romney announced plans to visit Friday.
Obama was planning to visit Louisiana all along… he was just waiting for the FEMA checks to clear so that it would be a worth his while fund raising trip.
LOL. You may not be far from the truth.
It’s a waste of time for him. He can’t win Louisiana. That’s why he had to be dragged there.
Gulf coasters remember what Obama did to offshore drilling after the BP blowout.BP was a rogue company that didn’t follow accepted industry safe procedures- is is not mere coincidence that BP’s Texas City refinery had a big accident and loss of life in 2005.Obama punishes the whole offshore drilling industry for the misbehavior of one company. If BP- a big Obama contributor – can’t drill offshore, then no one can drill offshore.
Even if Obama had camped out in New Orleans all this week, there is no way he would carry Louisiana in November.
It sounded a bit too Jewish for him.
So, he was against it before he was for it?
Obama has a lot of trouble differentiating between past, present and future tense.
He leads Romney from behind.
He deliberately restricts the size of the crowds for a more cozy effect.
He gives out free tickets in a tavern so the drinking folks can see him talk thru their haze. (http://dunwoody.patch.com/articles/dems-giving-away-tickets-to-obamas-speech-9af17d66?ncid=newsltuspatc00000001)
He helps the needy billionaires with the taxpayers’ money for he knows how humiliating multi-billionaire bundlers must feel for losing millions of their own money.
He takes away the Catholics’ religious freedom to give Sandra Fluke free condoms.
He is the man who leads you FORWARD off the cliff.
