Good Grief: Obama Says He Sends Personal Checks in Response to Hardship Letters He Receives — Will He Also Write a Check for OWS? (video)

“It’s not something I should advertise… but, heck, I will!”
Crikey, is there no end to the ego of the Current Occupier of the Oval Office, no end to the audacity?
Not only has he arrogantly destroyed our economy, spent us into near bankruptcy, applauded the radical, vandalizing, law-breaking Flea Party/Occupy Wall Street socialists who want to destroy free market principles yet mocked and chastised the conservative tea party movement for wanting smaller government and fiscal responsibility, but now Pres. Obama proclaims in a new book that he sends personal checks to people who send him letters of hardship. To Americans who have been financially hurt by his failed Marxist Obamanomics.
From his personal stash, of course.
What a swell guy.
Reported by The Hill, Book: Obama sends personal checks in response to mail:
President Obama has occasionally reacted to correspondence by sending constituents a personal check, according to a new book.
“A few times during his presidency, Obama admitted, he had written a personal check or made a phone call on the writer’s behalf, believing that it was his only way to ensure a fast result,” The Washington Post’s Eli Saslow writes in his newly released Ten Letters: The Stories Americans Tell Their President.
“It’s not something I should advertise, but it has happened,” Obama told Saslow, in an excerpt of the book. “Some of these letters you read and you say, ‘Gosh, I really want to help this person, and I may not have the tools to help them right now. And then you start thinking about the fact that for every one person that wrote describing their story, there might be another hundred thousand going through the same thing. So there are times when I’m reading the letters and I feel pained that I can’t do more, faster, to make a difference in their lives.”
[...]
“My staff is very evenhanded, because about half of these letters call me an idiot,” Obama told Saslow.
Only “half”?
Wonder if any of those people received a personal check from POTUS?
Pres. Obama Boasts of Giving Money to Letter Writers from His Own Personal Stash
Panic time for Obama’s reelection.
Video summary from creators Granny Jan & Jihad Kitty:
It’s episodes like these where we take the measure of the man, He comes up lacking in sincerity, honesty and likability.
Obama’s a congenital liar who lies even when he doesn’t have to, He enjoys pulling the wool over the public’s eye whom he sees as his inferiors.
As Maggie’s Notebook details today on America’s disastrous subprime loans, 71 percent were of the government’s doing — Fannie Mae (thank you, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd), Freddie Mac (another thank you, Barney and Chris), FHA, HUD and CRA — not Wall Street. Low interest rates, set by the government, Obama’s grotesque overspending, and other DC/Team Obama shenanigans have added to America’s financial woes. And yet, our president has embraced the filth-encrusted, pooping-on-police-cars, violence-endorsing Zuccotti Park squatters for denigrating the rich and wanting to kill bankers.
Liberal millionaires, elected Democrat leaders like Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi, and wealthy celebrities, like Dear Leader Obama, are jumping on the ludicrous OWS bandwagon.
Has-been comedienne (now an even loonier screeching fruitcake lib than she was before) Roseanne Barr/Arnold/Whatever has embraced the OWS/rob the rich movement. Not financially destitute by any stretch of the imagination, Barr has declared that rich people should be beheaded if they don’t give up their wealth. Rosie, have you emptied your own stuffed-to-the-gills bank accounts? Didn’t think so.
Maybe, as we draw closer to Democrat Bloodbath II (aka November 2012 election) Obama will sit down and write the whiny OWS protestors a personal check. Lord knows Roseanne will be pulling her own millionaire purse strings tightly, as will millionaire singer Kanye West and other liberal hypocrites… from Ben Shapiro:
Watching losers complain about rich people is amusing enough. But adding to the spectacle are members of the entertainment industry, who are mobilizing behind the Occupy Wall Street crowd. It started with Roseanne Barr, who suggested that anyone with a net worth of more than $100 million who insisted on keeping his or her wealth should be beheaded. One wonders what she would say to Marcy Carsey, creator of Roseanne, who is worth approximately $600 million. And why exactly did Roseanne set the bar at $100 million? Maybe because it allows her—net worth reportedly approximately $80 million – to be grandmothered in?
Then there’s Kanye West, who showed up at Occupy Wall Street to tell Taylor Swift that Beyonce should be there – oh, sorry, wrong protest. He showed up to demonstrate support for the protesters who have been turning the place into a toxic waste site with their occupation. At the protest, he wore his patented large gold chains. He was all sympathy, but wasn’t going to give anyone the $355 Givenchy shirt off his back.

Thanks. Isn’t it amazing that the check’s recipients have kept a total silence on Obama’s magnanimous gesture? They just go to the nearest bank and quietly cash the checks. I’d like to see the teller’s face.
Maybe they have to sell the check on eBay for the value of the signature something that one letter recipient from Obama actually did to pay her mortgage.
I’m sure the MSM will be investigating the veracity of his gesture very soon…crickets chirping.
