Obama Cancels Cleveland Visit

Instead of campaigning at Luke Easter Park, the president will visit Louisiana in the wake of Tropical Storm Isaac

 

President Barack Obama's appearance in Cleveland has been canceled, according to the office of U.S. Rep. Marcia Fudge.

Obama planned to speak at an 11th Congressional District Labor Day event Monday morning, but has since decided to go to Louisiana in the wake of Tropical Storm Isaac.

"The president is making an abrupt change in his travel schedule," said Belinda Prinz, a spokeswoman for Fudge's office. "What plans he may have to come back to Northeast Ohio, we don't know yet. It's way too early to say."

White House spokesman Jay Carney announced the trip Friday aboard Air Force One as Obama flew to Texas to speak to U.S. service members and their families, The Huffington Post reported.

The president plans on examining damage caused by Isaac this week, seven years after Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans.

ABC News 9:35AM: "The White House has not announced any plans to visit the storm area."

Then at 1PM: "The announcement came hours after Mitt Romney's campaign announced the GOP presidential nominee was canceling a trip to Virginia Friday in order to fly to Louisiana and survey the storm damage... "

Do you know Obama has not been working for over 50% of his 4 years?
He is always "OUT". What a Joke!.
But expected from a person who never worked anywhere a day of his life.
Take off your blinders.
Tell us all One major accomplishment of Obama before he became Senator of Illinois.

Have you ever seen a picture of him anywhere at a previous Job?
NO!
Well he has ZERO experience for you to even suggest He is Working at the Office.

@PaulRevere- Do you believe that if Romney should win the election and run again in 2016 that he won't spend the same amount of time on the road campaigning? What politician isn't compelled to do the same in order to win an election. Perhaps making laws where any person running for office is limited to time campaigning would alleviate that problem.

Also, this is the digital age. Obama's physical presence is not needed in the "office" to be able to work.

Janet:

Don't know your business experiences. Don't know your age.
But, every company (Business) Government operation NEEDS daily owner presence.

If an "OFFICE" of employees does not have their head Executive present to handle decision making, it crumbles.

Digital age does not suggest the "EXECUTIVE office of President" is exempted from tending to his Duties.

His duties include dealing with "People" congress and Washington based employees.
This President does not know what Administration of an Executive entails.
He never had one Job where he managed people. Ignorance of what an executive office involves is NOT AN EXCUSE.

Romney has tons of Executive experience, (if you saw all of his jobs and accomplishments on TV, you should know that.)
No one could operate the USA office with thousands of employees by being absent from daily contact. Do you know this President has not had one CABINET meeting for over 5 months?
THE EMPTY-CHAIR says it all. I cannot believe there are people like you who see any hope in this country , with a MOCKING President, who has talked his way into the highest office in the nation.
You could not even name ONE accomplishment of Obama before he became Senator.
But, you would be so gullible to accept the Digital age trumps all "intelligence.
Get the facts-Obama has been out of the office more times than "IN The office"
His vacations and campaigning have not addressed USA problems.
FAILED!

He has golfed four times as much in four years as Bush did in eight. That is known to the average citizen, as you can't golf without being out there. And that still begs the question as to why he changed his schedule right after Romney announced he was going to the Gulf coast. Is he now neglecting "all the duties of his office" to chase Romney? Fact: if Romney had not announced a trip to the Gulf, Obama would be campaigning in Cleveland right now.

On the ranch GWB sold the minute he left the White House, since he didn't need the photo ops any more.

Not one person or Journalist (I like how you don't include MSM in the "person" pool!) has asked him about his personal records because he won't let them. All of his interviews are staged, like his campaign stops. Scripted, if you will. The WH Press Pool has to submit their questions in advance so Obama has a "ready" answer for them, or so he can ignore them completely.

With all your snide remarks, you are making yourselves look ignorant..Congress' pledge to block everything Obama did and to bring him down was the main objection of these 4 years. Nothing of importance got passed that affected the middleclass.
Their sole aim was to make him look bad and not pass important issues. If congress had done it's job, and served their constituents , we wouldn't be in the mess we are in today. The only thing the GOPees want is to support their buddies in big business and to lower their taxes and raise the people's taxes. They still can't stand that a intelligent black man won the presidency. Get over it and grow up.

Laurie, you have it all wrong. The voter ID issue right now is in Pennsylvania. President Obama is not involved in it at all. Even the people pushing the issue have admitted that the fraud they're attempting to correct is virtually non-existent. However a Republican leader in PA said that this law will result in Romney winning Pennsylvania. Enough said. Please get your facts straight before you post. And before you accuse someone of being 12, consider that calling President Obama by the name Obummer is probably something that a pre-adolescent might resort to.

May I suggest that those of you who keep referring to the words "You didn't build that", go back and read the full text of what the president said. It's easy to take something out of context and run with it. I'm thinking that perhaps if you have any comprehension skills at all, you will understand the full meaning. This is an example of the false campaign ads the republicans are running. One of the worst (and even some Republicans have admitted it's wrong) is the ad saying Obama has scrapped welfare to work. When I first heard the GOP ad, I looked up the issue. What the Repubicans are saying couldn't be further from the truth. What Obama has done is actually improve and strengthen the law. He said states could waive the law if they can guarantee a proram that will put 20% MORE people from welfare to work than the Feds. Sounds good to me. I thought Republicans liked states' rights.

Grace: woops! hold it "horse'
Well Grace, I suggest you actually "SEE" the President saying the whole clip.
If you saw it, then you would not have to Readit, would you?
The only place you would see it , is on "FOX CABLE"
Listen to FOX and CNN where you will actually SEE the President in all his quite ignorant talks. ( did you See him call a navy "corpseman" ---"Corpse" man (like in a dead body?) He said it 3 times not even knowing what he was saying.
So rest assured every bit of 7mil people know exactly what President said.
Only reading could take it out of context.

Alienating the smart American Businessmen (YOUR EMPLOYER) is ignorant of how this country is moved.
He has indeed offended the American worker-owner-employee throughout America.
And you , for some reason continue to tell US that we don't understand!
SEE -IT SEE HIM say what you claim he did not say.
Mockery of his country is what he has been doing in every campaign stop.
Do yourself a favor in November, Don't admit you voted for "ineptness"

First off, Paul, I'm not sure what the first line of your response to me means. Care to explain it. Secondly I did see the whole clip and listened to it too. Obviously you SAW the clip but didn't LISTEN. And what does mispronouncing corps have to do with what I wrote about? Would you like me to make a list of all George Bush's mispronunciations? Anyone who does as much public speaking as a president is bound to mispronounce now and then. I even gave Bush a pass on that. I am the employer of the Big American businessman as you put it. So are you and millions of others. He wouldn't be where he is if I didn't purchase his product or pay for his service. YOU offend American workers by denying their part in making that American Businessman successful. And if you think that government has no role in making American Businessmen successful, you better do your homework. Tax breaks, infrastructure, etc, etc. Maybe you should read more in depth than watch edited "clips" on FOX.

Grace: If you did not understand that "PaulRevere" rode a Horse, than I certainly am not going to assume you understand what you read.
A mispronunciation is not the same as "Ignorance"
Obama said it 3 times in one speech the same day.
He obviously has no clue how to say the word "corpsemen"
He also said he visited 57 states.

So , if we all took the "build-it" out of context, why did you not SEE the video rather than read the speech.
I don't have to read it. May I say "YOU" should see the whole speech and come back here and tell us that he was NOT MOCKING the millions of people who immigrated and started businesses from scratch. I am convinced you do not want to hear the truth.
Who do you think Built the railroads?
Who do you think built Hoover Dam?

I am sure you only listen to commentary.

SEEING THE VIDEO can only be done if you watch FOX, because no other

He mispronounced it twice not three times as you claim..It still doesn't come close to the number of times Bush mispronounced words repeatedly. You can find many internet links to back that up. You say Obama has no clue how to say it and that makes him ignorant. What about you? YOU have no clue how to SPELL it. I let it slide on your first post, but you misspelled it again on your second comment. I guess that makes you ignorant. It's spelled corpsmen. Not corpsemen as you keep spelling it. I'm glad that you agree with me that Big Businessmen owe their success to the people, the workers,the taxpayers as you say. But you're wrong to claim it only came from taxpayers who work in private industry. Tens of thousands of public employees would be surprised to know that the money they pay in taxes isn't included in your rant.

Moral of "Corpse" comment.
You never even knew it.
The major media is keeping you much in the dark about this President.
You owe your self a favor.
Listen to Fox Cable and at least "SEE". Than you can go listen to your favored media. Just do it for 1 week.
Force yourself to hear the differences.
You could then , with your mind, really see who is telling the truth. Videos cannot lie.
Obama is not as intelligent as YOU are hearing. (GM factory in Janesville Wisconsin Did close down on Bush's watch, BUT you should see the VIDEO of Obama in early 2008 showing Obama telling that plant-"If HE were elected President That plant would be open for 100 years")

Listen to the Democratic convention, but turn on FOX for the VIDEO responses to what was said. Many of Fox's commentators ARE indeed conservative, but they actually show videos to back up their comments.
That should be important to you.
Obama MOCKS this country. He MOCKS you . Only avideo would show that.
He mocked the lifeblood of How this country was "BUILT"

What's all this nonsense about who's going to visit the hurricane disaster area first? What really counts is who's going to HELP the people in need. Romney who told a man who lost his home to call 211 and whose running mate voted to cut funding to disaster victims? Or Obama who wants to aid those in need? Maybe the victims can answer that.

Just an FYI. 211 is the number you dial for Hurricane assistance in Louisiana. Next time you may want to educate yourself before you comment. Romney was absolutely correct in telling that person to call 211.

Mitt Romney to Homeless Issac Flood Victim: "GO HOME AND CALL 211!

by luckyguyjoe

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney launched the final leg of his quest for the White House by visiting storm-battered Louisiana on Friday.

Romney and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) spent close to an hour meeting with first responders and local officials. Romney shook hands with National Guardsmen outside the U.S. Post Office and talked with a local resident, Jodie Chiarello, 42, who lost her home in Isaac's flooding.

"He just told me to, um, there's assistance out there," Chiarello said of her conversation with Romney. "He said, go home and call 211." That's a public service number offered in many states.

WHAT? HE TOLD THE HOMELESS INDIVIDUAL WHAT? THEY LOST THEIR HOME AND
MITT TELLS THEM TO GO HOME AND CALL 211? ARE YOU SERIOUS? WHAT?

Willard just came off the republican convention where they TRIED to portray him
as a caring human being. Where they tried to show his softer side and put an end to
his image as a robot. They spent 3 days using every possible angle to make Willard
seem like just another guy.
And when he meets one of homeless victims from the recent hurricane he merely
brushes them off and says "go home...call 211"! Willard...their home is gone!
They have no home. Its been flooded. Go home? To where Willard? They don't
have 4 or 5 homes like you do. They've got one home that was destroyed and they
need help..

Also anita try to use the correct quote from Jodie Chiarello
"He just told me to, um, there's assistance out there," Chiarello said of her conversation with Romney. "He said, go home and call 211." That's a public service number offered in many states.
He said that he was going to do the best that he could for us.” Chiarello, a Republican who declined to say who she was voting for, said she was pleased Romney visited to be “supportive.”

“He’s good, he’ll do the best for us, he has our best interests at heart,” she said of the candidate, adding that he was different than she’d expected.

“I thought he’d be more like a politician, but it was more understanding and caring,” she said. “He was caring.”

Romney told the women that FEMA could point them in the direction of shelters.

To PaulRevere, or should I call you Mr. Know It All. I am well aware of what 211 means. You don't need to educate me as I am already highly educated. Why do you assume when one refers to a term in their comments they need you to give them an FYi? I guess you need that opportunity to make nasty comments. Insecure?
Telling the man who lost his home in a disaster to call 211 is like telling everyone to call a certain number and you'll win a million dollars. Think they'll have an easy time getting their call through? Do you understand my analogy? Do you even know what analogy means? Also your joke about gulf/golf falls flat because gulf and golf are pronounced differently. I know how important pronunciation is to you, so I'm surprised you don't know the difference between the two.
