Pathetic! Never stays in D.C. to govern. Hasn’t had any discussions with the Congress on the looming Cliff, according to ValJar. He’s going to accomplish great things at a pre-Kindergarten!
Julie, Julie, Julie. His most Arrogance will fit right in with the children since he has a behavioral deficiency. A four year old has an attention span of maybe 10 minutes. I as a father of three and grand-father of seven would know from experience. Apparently our most Arrogant One knows little about kids except to use them for his benefit.
LOL but you speak the truth.
Too bad he couldn’t combine this trip with his vacay to Florida on Friday ? Could have saved us a little money, even if he slept on AF1 Thursday night?
The Campaigner in Chief never governs. He campaigns and promotes.
He is not an administrator. He does not look out for us.
Once again he is using children for propaganda.
Wasn’t he in North Carolina yesterday?
DC to NC, Back to DC then to GA today, back to DC and to FL on Friday? Why does he have to sleep in the WH each night?
So Thursday Obama flies down to Georgia to deliver a ‘propaganda speech’… then flies back to DC-White House… then flies off Friday on a 3 day luxury vacation in Palm Beach, FLA.
WTF?
I think he has a side trip to Chicago to visit the Hyde Park Academy planned for Friday before Florida. Rack up those flyer miles as we criss cross America before vaca.
He didn’t want to take his telepromters with him on vacation, silly. After the pre-school visit, he must fly back to the White House to drop them off before moving on to Florida. He doesn’t like using the teleprompters on the golf course.
…and wasn’t he just in Ashville, NC yesterday? Another WTF????
Pre-kinder agitprop? Sheesh…

Heck, I thought MrK was funnin’ us here. But, the POTUS is going to really visit a learning center for children 6weeks old to pre-kindergarden age.
C’mon, what can someone teach a 2 month old baby?
How embarrassing for the Leader of the Free World reduced to visiting what has to be little more than a day-care center.
It’s called campaigning for future voters.
It needs to be said-Head Start is a FAILURE and now he wants to expand the program to everyone. That is what this bit of agitprop is about.
Of course, you can’t attack Head Start. Because it’s a program For The Children ™
Sounds as if he’s working so hard as putative president!
I smell a skunk in the room and a what a more appropriate place than the “Roosevelt room”.
Sounds like he’s gonna give a lecture to the diaper brigade on gun control. Say it isn’t so!
“Fireside Hangout’??? For Choomers only!
Nothing against places like Decatur GA or Asheville, NC, but who the heck picks the cities/towns he visits?
I know he is trying to keep in touch with the “common man” but it seems that he is visiting some very obscure places, and reaching a very limited audience. Perhaps he is afraid to reach out to the “every man” in larger cities because he knows that his vision of America will be rejected. Lord knows Obama cannot handle rejection.
There’s no telling what this petty, egotistical dilettante is up to. One thing for sure, it’s not the work he was elected to do. He has the gravitas of a flea. Every day is a play day for him!
Just FYI, Decatur is very populated city and about 6 miles from downtown Atlanta….definitely not an “obscure place.”
There is more to this visit then meets the eye.
Fireside Hangout? Is this supposed to be hip? Do people say hip anymore? Never mind. My mal.
It’s a rip-off of FDR’s ‘fireside chats’. How about groovy, keen, or totally rad? Guess I’m showing my age…
You would think that today being Valentines Day, he would want to spend the day with his wife. I know if I wasn’t working I would be with my wife.
Airforce one should be grounded until the economy recovers. There is need for this man to reduce the amount his is costing us taxpayers. The administration has been blatent about abusing their position. His actions says he does not feel obligated to work for the good of the nation. HE WORKS FOR US, not the way he acts. We are not the suppliers of his waste.
