President Obama appeared on the Los Angeles-based “Piolin Por La Mañana” Show on Univision Radio hosted by Eddie “Piolin” Sotelo Wednesday and made a bold prediction about his re-election, vowing that his presidency was not over and if fact he had ‘another five years coming up’
The term length of the Presidency is generally accepted as being only four years.
================
TRANSCRIPT:
PIOLIN: Thank you Mr. President for receiving my phone call.
OBAMA: Piolin, it’s good to talk to you my friend.
PIOLIN: We’re going to start right away because this is what our community wants to know. During your presidency, you have not delivered the immigration reform that we were hoping for. Thousands of families have been separated by deportation, leaving their children behind, alone in this country. Do you think that you still have the support of the Latino community?
OBAMA: Well, first of all Piolin, my presidency is not over, I’ve got another five years coming up. We’re going to get this done. And — and absolutely we have strong support in the Latino community because they have seen something we are working on. First of all, strengthening the economy, we were able to get the payroll tax done that provides 25 million Latinos with an extra 40 dollars in every paycheck and is going to strengthen the economy. We made sure unemployment insurance got extended because the Latino community has been so hard hit. A million Latinos are going to be benefiting from that. The housing settlement that we just passed, which will help Latino families all across the country who were taken advantage of by subprime lenders to be able to stay in their homes. The work we have done on education, to make sure millions of students — many Latino students are still getting Pell Grants and other scholarships and financial aid so that they can go to college. So, there are a lot of issues that we have worked on that have directly benefited millions of Latino families.
You’re right though, immigration reform is something we still have to get done and as I’ve told you since before I was elected president, the only way we are going to get this done fully is by getting Congress to do its job.
What we’ve been able to do is, administratively, we’ve said, let’s reemphasize our focus when it comes to enforcement on criminals and at the borders and let’s not be focusing our attention on hard-working families who are just trying to make ends meet. We’ve administratively proposed to reform the “three and 10” program so that families aren’t separated when they’re applying to stay here in this country.
So we are trying to do a lot to soften the effects of immigration, but ultimately, the only way we are going to do this is to get something passed through Congress, and that’s why we have to keep the pressure up.
Unfortunately, the Republican side, which used to at least give lip service to immigration reform, now they’ve gone completely to a different place and have shown themselves unwilling to talk at all about any sensible solutions to this issue and we are just going to have to keep up the pressure until they act.”
Dear Leader will say and do anything to pander for votes…anywhere, anytime!
We have gas prices going sky-high and he blames the republicans for this today in Miami…here’s the transcript here, if you can stand to read all of his lying blather he spewed today. I do recommend you read it though, even though your hair will be on fire after doing so!
Here’s one of his favorite spokesman on the campaign trail with him, the wonderful DNC Chief ‘Debbie Downer‘ on the House Floor five days ago.
Here’s some of what she said today:
Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said Thursday that GOP White House hopefuls will do nothing to help consumers at the gasoline pump.
The Florida congresswoman’s comments come hours before President Obama is slated to give an energy speech in Miami aimed partly at rebutting GOP political attacks over rising gasoline prices. She said the GOP plans would keep the U.S. dependent on oil.
“The Republican field, like Mitt Romney, thinks that we just need to remain tethered and dependent on foreign oil because all they would do is more and more drilling, which is a very shortsighted approach and it would do nothing to prevent people who are struggling to put $80 into their gas tanks to be able to make sure that that’s more affordable,” Wasserman Schultz said on MSNBC.
“And that is another example of how they are economically out of touch.”
She said that on good ol’ msDNC, one hour before she was to attend the speech Obama gave today regarding gas prices, drilling etc in Miami. Of course at the the beginning of his speech this morning Obama gave her a great big shout-out!
Last but not least, we have Dear Leader’s Not-so-Smart advisor Valerie Jarret telling all that would listen that unemployment benefits were ‘good‘ for the economy at another University in North Carolina. She also stated that these checks were a ‘safety-net’ for all.
So you tell me friends…why in the world would anyone think we cannot defeat leftist-loons like these ‘Three Stooges‘ come election time?
It would do the ‘Master-of-Disaster‘ well to look up what the meaning of ‘Putting the Cart Before the Horse‘ is. What say you?

No Dear Leader is not delusional!
They ran the McCain/Palin ticket as a dead duck. They did not want the hot potato(e) of the financial meltdown in their lap.
According to Michael Savage, it’s an 8 year trade off.
These debates have sealed the deal.
Memorable Movie Death #3: Vizzini From Princess Bride
The only five yr. term I’d want for Barry would be in Leavenworth. Any moron should be able to defeat him, but we’re searching 24/7 for a moron who’ll give us a second Obama term. Our only hope at survival is keeping the House and getting a majority in the Senate.
Want a good laugh? 15 questions the MSM would ask Skidmark if he was a Republican:
I went to the link at TH to read them all…it’s been despicable that none of the those obvious questions have been asked by the msm…yet we all know why.
Nothing like the ‘Double Standards’ and the hypocrisy when it comes to the msms…and they think we don’t know…hell, the msm of all venues is despised by the majority…and they don’t care one little bit, as long as they fulfill their agenda for their messiah…or whatever dem is in office of any kind.
I have an edition of the AJC that show’s Carter crying when Regan cleaned his clock, hope to have an edition of obama with his lips all pouted out, mooshel on the other hand will be mad as hell.
On a side note rino mccaine voted for a new federal judge that plans to take our guns away.
I hope to see that picture too…Klennex will run out of stock when we kick O’s ass to the curb! The msm will be using it the most.
Glad I didn’t see the vote regarding the judge McRINO voted for…along with any of his other cohorts. I have kept the TV mute since early this morning. Hubby’s home and watching it now though. (there are times I just can’t take the Boob-Tube…and today has been one of them.)
OSlimeball is counting on people in this country being as stupid as he believes they are. We conservatives need to vote in overwhelming numbers to defeat him, while at the same time doing and saying everything possible to demoralize his base. And if all of my Mexican friends are an indication, he is going to have a hard time convincing Hispanics that he will do any better at improving their lives in the second term. They only voted for him in 2008 as a sort of protest to the Gringo political machine. After three years of struggling to exist, Hispanics are not going to reelect this disaster. Hispanic Americans are family oriented and industrious…polar opposites to Obamao’s base which is largely made up of tax parasites.
The fact that he chose to appear on PioWetback’s radio program is a miscalculation on the presidDunce’s part…unless he is going after the illegal alien vote. Oh yeah! He is!
BigTimer:
Having lived on both sides of the border for most of my life I am very aware of the real facts about illegal immigration. And this administration has been lying 100% of the time to the American people about border security and illegal immigration. The fact is that apprehensions are down because the flow of illegals, who came here before to do $25/hour jobs that Americans wouldn’t do, is due to the lousy economy. And under this administration deportations of non-criminal illegal aliens stopped when ODingDong was sworn in. Now, he will stop deporting even criminal aliens to gain favor with Hispanics.
And the key to really stopping illegal immigration is to go after companies that employ illegals, however no president except Reagan has had the cajones to do so.
OSaviour is merely attempting to curry favor with Hispanic voters by this latest abrogation of his duty. Like most East Coast elites he has no idea what is really going on at the border or with Hispanic AMERICAN voters. Over the last three years I have spoken with dozens of Mexican AMERICAN friends about the job ODumbkoff has been doing. And these friends are working stiffs with families who own their homes. And guess what? They almost all believe that this guy is a complete disaster for them financially. And these AMERICAN Mexicans consider OLoser to be directly working against their interests by allowing illegals to remain in the country. That is due to the fact that the illegals, who will work for less than the prevailing wage are taking Hispanic AMERICANS’ jobs away. Hispanic AMERICANS have suffered ever increasing financial distress under this president.
So, I think the presiDunce has made a huge miscalculation of the level of support he can expect to receive from Hispanic AMERICANS in November.
I’ve read where O/Soros is now down 22 pts. when it comes to the hispanic voters…what you’ve written so succinctly is a major reason why…just like the rest of all americans in many respects.
Btw…we can’t forget what O has done when it comes to religion as well, that weighs a lot as well with the hispanics as well as the rest of us.
You said it in one word when it comes to the O-Team- ‘MISCALCULATION!’
See Bush only concerned himself with presiding over 50 states so he only needed 4 years. But Barack Hussein Obama needs that extra year added to his term limit because he is managing those extra 7 states in the union.
What would really happen if President Obama just said “I’m not leaving till I’m ready”
Besides Chris Matthews getting some more tingles, and the New York Times praising the historic event.
Maybe some Generals would apologize somewhere.
OWS would poop on something and some Islamist somewhere would blow something up.
You have to check this out.. a guy is attacked because he dresses like Muhammed in a halloween parade, and the Pennsylvania judge aquits the Muslim and scoriates the victim!!!
The report says this isn’t Iraq’s WMD’s…hell if it isn’t! Russia took them therem we have pictures of the convoy we say of them trucking then there…plus what was that pilot for Saddams’s name (Dada or something, heck I have links to all this and posted about it over time too) that was ordered to fly much of this too Syria as well.
…and now we’re supposed to act surprised because the likes of the state dept. and the msm tells us to be…hells bells, they can kiss my a$$!
Btw..when Bush backed down (because of msm pressure, his wife, advise from Rove and ilk) about all of this, when he knew danged well what was stored there via info he gets daily…it really disappointed me…I waited and waited for him to stand tall over this…to no avail.
Oh well, you get my drift I hope, even though it is in rushed jumble here.
Btw…truly appreciate link, will be clicking on the inside link to where this story originated and read all later or tomorrow.
look up “wasserman reaction”
it was named after Debbies father, who was known for his extramarital relations with SHEEP. Cant blame him thoigh, Debbies mom looked a lot like her !!!
As Ron Paul said,”America has descended into fascism, ” the merger of State and Corporation”
Make NO MISTAKE: The Government Media Complex will decide this election.
Color me the same furious shade of flaming red! I was just getting ready to post and say that our country would cease to exist for five more years if Oblammo is re-elected, and then saw your comment. I’m not sure the “Repubicans” will do anything of substance. They’re all too content with making nice-nice with “their friends across the aisle.” (barf) Note to GOP: the Dems are NOT our friends. We are headed for tyranny, and we need a miracle to stop the descent into the abyss.
Glad you’re here and share my anger too…I tell ya what, we have nothing but chicken-sh!t cowards as leaders on our side ot the aisle, they should be in front of news like this on the BOOB-TUBE and radio and internet screaming at the top of their lungs in UNISON!
Threatening Impeachment Hearings…we cannot take this another 11 months….at all! There is major marxist damage to come if this is not stopped NOW! This is UNCONSTITUTIONAL!
Firstly, If the President were to be re-elected, He would remain in office until January 20th 2017 (Inauguration Day). This being, of course, if he get’s re-elected. I am under the assumption that none of you will be voting for the President, but I think that it would be important for you to know that as a student lobbyist I lobbied multiple Republican Congresspeople and the parties public stance on immigration is firm. The party will not agree to any immigration legislation that does not encompass the entire issue (i.e. no DREAM Act on its own, it would have to be rolled into and omnibus immigration bill addressing education, transportation, healthcare, visa issues etc.). This bill is nearly impossible to get passed in the current congress and as such the party (Republican) has essentially given up on solving any issues having to due with immigration.
This is not true because of an inability of parties to work together but because of a very real split in the American populace on what to do. On one hand there are people that know immigrants and don’t want to see them be treated like criminals (i.e. harassed, profiled, etc.) and on the other are people that for whatever reason (may it be economic reasons or other. I’m sure one of you can fill in your own blank) feel that the flow of illegal immigrants must be stemmed if not stopped and if in the end a whole group of legal Americans need to have their rights violated to get this done then so be it. People that don’t want all immigrants to be treated like criminals aren’t willing to do what is needed to enforce the laws of the United States, and people that don’t care what has to be done to enforce the laws aren’t willing to respect the rights of legal Americans. The issue isn’t the Obama administration or with either party. It is that immigration is a difficult and complex issue that neither party can solve all at once and in the end Republicans won’t go for solving it piece by piece (which might not work any way) and neither party can come up with an omnibus that would pass.
Here’s some of what Dear Leader said today in Miami via video…you will see what I mean about how infuriating this so-called man is!

I’m sure one of you can fill in your own blank) feel that the flow of illegal immigrants must be stemmed if not stopped and if in the end a whole group of legal Americans need to have their rights violated to get this done then so be it. People that don’t want all immigrants to be treated like criminals aren’t willing to do what is needed to enforce the laws of the United States, and people that don’t care what has to be done to enforce the laws aren’t willing to respect the rights of legal Americans. The issue isn’t the Obama administration or with either party. It is that immigration is a difficult and complex issue that neither party can solve all at once and in the end Republicans won’t go for solving it piece by piece (which might not work any way) and neither party can come up with an omnibus that would pass.
