Obama Is Not To Be Played With!!!!

 

 Obama has the "I wish you WOULD say something else" look on his face. 

President Obama explained his administration's decision to allow as many as 800,000 young illegal immigrants to apply for temporary legal status and work permits in a speech this afternoon in the Rose Garden.
The president was interrupted by reporter Neil Munroe twice, who asked him to defend his assertion that the move is the "right thing" for the country. Obama talked over the reporter but later in the speech addressed him, again asserting that the immigration decision is the right one. Munroe again interrupted Obama. "I didn't ask for an argument," the president said sharply, ending the unusual exchange.

"They are Americans in their hearts, in their minds, in every single way but one--on paper," Obama said of the young illegal immigrants who will be affected by his plan. The sweeping proposal allows immigrants without criminal records who are under 30 years old, entered the country as children, have graduated from a U.S. high school, and can prove they've lived in the country for five consecutive years to apply for temporary legal status and then two-year, renewable work permits. It does not provide them a path to citizenship. In his speech, Obama stressed that the move is "not amnesty," and that he thinks Congress should still pass a broader legalization bill.

Maybe Girls Do Run The World......

So this past week was a beautiful one for my ladies. Upon my return from vacation I hit the Internets to push Elisha Jade's co hosting gig with Hot 97's DJ Juanyto on the Monday Night Action.

Then Tuesday it was a lil socializing as Raven returned to the party scene at a new venue for her Off the Wall party. Great music, set the tone for a mixture of hip hop lovers, insiders and dancers to mingle and enjoy.

Humpday, then marked the 1st special edition of Menage a Talks that featured the T.Dot to UK(via NY) link up of Goddess I and Elisha Jade. In the meanwhile everyone's favorite world traveler Evita Robinson was on the grind preparing to serve up so much international favor that I may be almost as excited as she is to see it reach the masses.

Lou looking for an Office Seat?.......Damn

Truthfully I never hated Lou but in recent yrs his views have touched a few nerves with me. And it wasn't an unusual thing for me to wonder what he would do if in office.We may get to find out.

PHOENIX (Reuters) – A week after abruptly quitting his longtime job as a CNN television news host and commentator, Lou Dobbs said on Thursday he is considering career options including possible runs for the White House or U.S. Senate.

"Right now I feel exhilaration at the wide range of choices before me as to what I do next," Dobbs, whose outspoken views on immigration and other topics often angered liberals, told Reuters in a telephone interview from New York on Thursday.

Dobbs, 64, a veteran CNN anchor who had become one of the most divisive figures in U.S. broadcast journalism, announced last Wednesday he was leaving CNN after spending the better part of 30 years at the 24-hour cable news network.
