Steve Jobs Obama Headed For One Term Presidency, Huffington Post, Jobs Biography, Critical of administration policies, Obama not business friendly
“We need an educated citizenry that values hard evidence.”…Barack Obama
From the Huffington Post October 20, 2011.
“Steve Jobs Biography Reveals He Told Obama, ‘You’re Headed For A One-Term Presidency’”
“In one of the most hotly-anticipated biographies of the year, “Steve Jobs,” author Walter Isaacson reveals that the Apple CEO offered to design political ads for President Obama’s 2012 campaign despite being highly critical of the administration’s policies and that Jobs refused potentially life-saving surgery on his pancreatic cancer because he felt it was too invasive. Nine months later, he got the operation but it was too late.
Those are just some of the tidbits about Jobs’ life revealed in the upcoming biography, a copy of which was obtained by The Huffington Post. The publication date of the official biography of the notoriously-secretive Apple co-founder was pushed up after his death in October. “I wanted my kids to know me,” Isaacson quoted Jobs as saying in their final interview. “I wasn’t always there for them and I wanted them to know why and to understand what I did.”
Among other details unearthed in the book on the notoriously-secretive Apple co-founder:
Jobs’ Meeting With Obama
Jobs, who was known for his prickly, stubborn personality, almost missed meeting President Obama in the fall of 2010 because he insisted that the president personally ask him for a meeting. Though his wife told him that Obama “was really psyched to meet with you,” Jobs insisted on the personal invitation, and the standoff lasted for five days. When he finally relented and they met at the Westin San Francisco Airport, Jobs was characteristically blunt. He seemed to have transformed from a liberal into a conservative.
“You’re headed for a one-term presidency,” he told Obama at the start of their meeting, insisting that the administration needed to be more business-friendly. As an example, Jobs described the ease with which companies can build factories in China compared to the United States, where “regulations and unnecessary costs” make it difficult for them.
Jobs also criticized America’s education system, saying it was “crippled by union work rules,” noted Isaacson. “Until the teachers’ unions were broken, there was almost no hope for education reform.” Jobs proposed allowing principals to hire and fire teachers based on merit, that schools stay open until 6 p.m. and that they be open 11 months a year.
Aiding Obama’s Reelection Campaign
Jobs suggested that Obama meet six or seven other CEOs who could express the needs of innovative businesses — but when White House aides added more names to the list, Jobs insisted that it was growing too big and that “he had no intention of coming.” In preparation for the dinner, Jobs exhibited his notorious attention to detail, telling venture capitalist John Doerr that the menu of shrimp, cod and lentil salad was “far too fancy” and objecting to a chocolate truffle dessert. But he was overruled by the White House, which cited the president’s fondness for cream pie.
Though Jobs was not that impressed by Obama, later telling Isaacson that his focus on the reasons that things can’t get done “infuriates” him, they kept in touch and talked by phone a few more times. Jobs even offered to help create Obama’s political ads for the 2012 campaign. “He had made the same offer in 2008, but he’d become annoyed when Obama’s strategist David Axelrod wasn’t totally deferential,” writes Isaacson. Jobs later told the author that he wanted to do for Obama what the legendary “morning in America” ads did for Ronald Reagan.”

Obama’s lofty goals of raising 1 billion dollars for his 2012 campaign and he doesn’t want to pay for his art work??? Really, what a pompas ass, he really thinks he’s king…
On the prior thread Gordo linked to today’s article at The Post & Email, which is an open letter written to Erick Erickson of RedState.com in Jan., 2011. I was reading the comments, also from Jan., 2011, and was especially interested in “Mike” who posted the following link:

The above is also from Jan., 2011, by Anthony Martin of The Examiner and, although it was written about nine months ago, somehow I missed it.
Maybe others here did too. It would be good to refresh our memories as to how much the White House has tried to keep the lid on the birth issues, even to the point of threatening lead news people from the very beginning.
AZ Gov. Brewer’s Case Against Feds Dismissed
The dismissal by U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton comes in a counter-lawsuit filed by Brewer as part of the Justice Department’s challenge to Arizona’s controversial immigration enforcement law.
(snip)
Bolton said Brewer’s claim that Washington has failed to protect Arizona from an “invasion” of illegal immigrants was a political question that isn’t appropriate for the court to decide.

“Why Republicans Will Never Address Obama’s Crimes”
by Lawrence Sellin, ©2011
“I have received information from multiple sources that Congressional Republicans are fully aware that Barack Hussein Obama is a Constitutionally illegal President and has committed felonies both before and after occupying the Oval Office.
…
Republicans are fully intimidated by the Obama campaign and its supporters in the mainstream media with the certainty of being labeled and dismissed as “racists,” “birthers” and right-wing “conspiracy theorists” if they confront Obama regarding his violation of the Constitution and his felonies.
…
What goes unmentioned in the Republicans’ explanation is that, because of their complicity in the cover-up of Obama’s ineligibility and crimes, they are also vulnerable to political criticism and criminal prosecution.”
Obama Natural Born Citizen Issue Has a New Sinister Twist – Supreme court records have been corrupted
JUSTIA.COM SURGICALLY REMOVED “MINOR v HAPPERSETT” FROM 25 SUPREME COURT OPINIONS IN RUN UP TO ’08 ELECTION.
Another “Gate” for the most corrupt, illegal “Presidency” in U.S. history. Case records were altered in the most important legal database in the nation, to cover up hard evidence of what a natural born citizen really is, as cases closed in on “Obama’s” ineligibility for the US Presidency.

In the Navy it is called “DAMAGE CONTROL” AFTER the fact,but beforehand I call it CONSPIRACY to commit treason.
Aristotle…………………
We have a nation which is a Republic,yet it has been STOLEN FROM WE THE PEOPLE, by ILLEGAL CONSPIRATORS all of whom are GUILTY of ATTEMPTING TO EVERTHROW THE US GOVERNMENT……AND ALL PARTIES SHOULD BE HUNG BY THE NECK UNTIL DEAD. This includes all people in positions of elected leadership who KNOWINGLY SUPPORTED the OVERTHROW. This could STILL HAPPEN,but because the American people are so WRAPPED UP in their OWN LITTLE WORLDS, they don’t even GIVE A DAMN about their own country. They think that they are insulated from all of the strife. Boy are they going to hit the deck hard.
………….furthermore there are pathetically few Americans left who even have the gonads to HICCUP out loud. They WHINE AND CRING like schoolyard children from a playground BULLY. If our so called MALE population had any testosterone they would have come together LONG AGO, and put the slimey little creep who is now illegally occupying our WH out in the street,and subsequently in prison where he rightfully belongs. Soon they are going to get to face the reality of their own COWARDICE. Unfortunately for theem it will be TOO LATE. In their cowardly behavior they have taken an entire nation down with them…….now they want the innocent victims to SAVE THEIR ASSES. They will be told to take a long walk on a SHORT PIER.
Aristotle………………
Yesterday there was a comment posted on CW blog which allegedly reflected the words of a piece of HUMAN SH#T who stated that he along with ALL of his BLACK brothers was going to BLOW THE HEADS off of any and all police officers who attempt to arrest Soetoro. Taken literally this means that he and his friends will declare war upon their OWN BLACK BROTHERS who have chosen to be POLICE OFFICERS. Throughout our country there are THOUSANDS of such POLICE OFFICERS. When the HUMPHREY character and his ODOROUS FRIENDS OPEN FIRE UPON even ONE OF our police officers he will face ALL OF THE THOUSANDS OF OFFICERS WHO ARE STILL STANDING……..and he will LOSE, because they will not miss. If he fires upon them first he will emerge from the encounter…..DEAD.
………….SUCH a BLOWHARD is an exact carbon copy of the present occupant of the WH. I do not believe that the comment was posted by a BLACK person,rather it was posted by a MENTALLY IMPAIRED piece of WHITE garbage who is deliberately attempting to create a RACE war. Such people think that everyone else are so stupid that they cannot figure out what is being done and BY WHOM……..then HE/SHE will be the FIRST CASUALTY OF THE ensuing battle.

I hope these same people come together to oust the usurper and remove this criminal regime from office.

Zach – It was Winston Churchill who said “If you are under thirty and not a Liberal, you have no heart, and if you are over thirty and not a Conservative, you have no brains.”
NOW THE BIG QUESTION – Are there more under thirty than over thirty in our country? This will determine the results of the next election.
PS – This is why the Democrats are constantly trying to keep lowering the voting age. There was a time when only landowners were eligible to vote. Their main objective, although, is to have only Democrats legal to vote. Have a nice day.
Bob Strauss………………
Thanks for posting the “Boatlift” video. It tells the story the way it needs to be told. The bastards who perpetrated 9-11 will NEVER be forgotten by ME. Now we have ONE OF THEM illegally occupying the WH, and pieces of HUMAN SHI# threatening to kill any officer who attempts to arrest the USURPER. If that happens it could easily become a MAJOR war…..but not the sort that the HUMAN GARGBAGE tried to instigate. Instead it will become a war against people like the INSTIGATOR.
It’s official,

Americans come together when it is needed, and with a foreigner usurping the presidency, and holding our country ransom, even if our Representatives won’t act to solve the problem, the American people will, with the only method available to them, the vote. So long Soetoro.

Outspoken Napolitano: Impeach Obama for Awlaki Killing
President Barack Obama is shredding the U.S. Constitution faster than any of the 42 men who preceded him in office, according to Fox News judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano. It is so bad he should be impeached over the murder of American terror suspect Anwar al-Awlaki – and if Congress won’t take that action, he should be indicted once he is out of office. In an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV, Napolitano said it doesn’t matter that Awlaki was probably guilty.
In an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV, Napolitano said it doesn’t matter that Awlaki was probably guilty – the fact is he was a U.S. citizen and the Constitution outlaws his killing without due process.

Warning! Progressives’ NPV Plan for White House Control, 2012 & Permanently

Wake Up America
National Popular Vote manifesto, 2004
While the lamestream media holds public attention on GOP candidate rivalries, a “progressive” strategy is underway to eliminate the role of the states in electing a U.S. President. By transferring electoral votes to a “national popular vote” this “Compact” would usurp the role of the states as safeguarded by our Constitution. In doing so, it could also neutralize Obama’s critics — totally.
This may be the most vital – and time sensitive – expose WAM has ever uncovered and shared! And it’s happening now, under the radar, with the general public in the dark. This “ultimate vote fraud” is intentionally complicated to keep it obscure until it’s too late to stop it.
This complete expose on the “National Popular Vote Compact” won’t be found elsewhere. Because of the complexity and urgency of this issue. read it through completely. See who is behind this scheme and what its intended consequences are.

This cartoon strip ran in the local newspaper until recently. It offers a conservative viewpoint with humor. I’ve clipped many of the cartoons and taped them to the wall around my desk. I was able to find Mallard Fillmore on the internet and I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do.

Gordo – NPVI looks like a very dangerous means of destroying The Republic.
Remember Benjamin Franklin said –
“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.”.

I haven’t heard read the book, but heard this guy interviewed on another show. Very interesting.
Might give some insight as to the inaction on b=ho crimes, all of these corruption investigation stalled etc….

Yes Bob the old media is in full spin mode.
Over the many years of my life I have intermittently heard some people say that they wished that the National Elections would be taken from POPULAR vote only. The electoral college in each state is now allegedly corrupt,and could decide to support a candidate who they choose to support,irregardless of the popular vote,or who they are DIRECTED to support. It is not difficult to see through political attempts to change the national voting scheme to POPULAR VOTE ONLY. For this reason all of such people as the ILLEGALS in the country could vote in our national elections. If this happens then there is a real possibility of the National election being stolen for a second time. I personally advocate the issuance of voter PIN numbers being issued to US Citizens only. Even PIN numberissuance isn’t without potential troubles.
The 2012 US National election promises to be one that will be hard fought. That is if the election actually takes place. Remember we have a CRIMINAL gang running the country now, and a very large percentage of America’s younger generation think Soetoro is really…. “cool.” They don’t even give a damn about ELIGIBILITY,or any other factor. They cannot be reiled upon for help if push does in fact come to shove. If the National elections are suspended FOR ANY REASON there WILL BE an UPRISING on a NATIONAL LEVEL.
If MARTIAL LAW is declared it will probably NOT BE FOLLOWED,OR ACCEPTED. The ensuing battle will become a CIVIL WAR which will NOT end UNTIL the ILLEGAL PRESENT GOVERNMENT is OUT OF THE WH,and IN PRISON. This includes the PEOPLE IN CONGRESS, DOJ, TOP ECHELON MILITARY,ETC who all KNOWINGLY SUPPORTED THE SO CALLED ILLEGAL POTUS. Criminal elements who would attempt to intervene will be dispatched,early on. It should be noted that law enforcement entities in EVERY state are PREPARED to follow CONSTITUTIONAL Law. The same goes for RETIRED MILITARY PEOPLE, and ORGANISATIONS. I venture to guess that the total committed so far is far over 50,000,000 people. It is probable that the criminal PERPETRATORS will FIRE THE FIRST SHOT,and the resulting CONFLICT will be EVERYONE IN UNISON RETURNING THE FIRE.
………The return fire will be accurately and intelligently laid down. While every precaution will be observed to keep innocent bystanders from injury,it is possible that a few might become injured……just remember who it was who FIRED THE FIRST SHOT. Then direct your anger at them or help those who are trying to FREE YOU and your FAMILY. It is they who are trying to TAKE YOUR FREEDOM FROM YOU!
Above ALL ELSE, DO NOT FIRE UPON LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS………..YOU WILL LOSE the battle,and the war.
From my dirty little carboard box,along the railroad right of way. BYE BYE. Got rid of my dirty little trailer in slime city,and burned down the little grass shack on Waikiki. Now I live in a PASTEBOARD BOX. Sort of like the SHANTY IRISH IMMIGRANTS did in the early 20th century.
