The day before Halloween, the White House released a partial list of visitors since Jan. 20 of this year. The list is fascinating and highlights exactly what kind of house the Obamas are running.
Topping the visitor chart is Andy Stern, president of the far-left Service Employees International Union. Stern has been received by the Obamas 22 times. Wow. He must be quite a guy. In fact, shouldn't he be getting frequent stayer points like they give in hotels?
Kim Gandy, president of the National Organization for Women, clocks in with 14 visits. This has to be a Michelle Obama play. I know the president is a sensitive guy, but hanging around with Gandy that much is incomprehensible unless she plays basketball, which I believe she does not.
John Podesta has visited 17 times. He used to advise Bill Clinton and now runs some wacky far-left organization that specializes in vile personal attacks against conservative Americans. Podesta is one mean motor scooter. I hope he's not scaring the Obama kids.
Showing up for six visits while keeping hope alive was Jesse Jackson. I'm not sure what the reverend is offering the Obamas, but they seem to like him more than Al Sharpton, who's visited the White House twice.
The late Sen. Ted Kennedy chalked up seven visits. You have to assume they were about health care. The liberal lion was a prime backer of Obamacare, which is shaping up to be an absolute disaster. Read On |
