Obama punts on Birnbaum exit

It was a remarkable moment in President Barack Obama’s press conference Thursday: just hours before, the head of the Minerals Management Service had left the top post at the agency that oversees offshore oil drilling.

And yet, the president said he didn’t know whether Liz Birnbaum had resigned or been fired.

“Now, with respect to Ms. Birnbaum, I found out about her resignation today,” Obama said. “So I don't know the circumstances in which this occurred.”

That explanation flummoxed reporters in the room, who seemed surprised to learn that the president wouldn’t know exactly what had happened to one of the key figures in an ongoing federal emergency – the one he was holding a news conference on at that very moment.

The news of Birnbaum’s departure broke publicly more than two hours before Obama stepped into the East Room.

The New York Times’ Jackie Calmes pressed for an answer.

“I'm also curious as how it is that you didn't know about Ms. Birnbaum's resignation/firing before,” Calmes said.

“Well, you're assuming it was a firing,” the president responded. “If it was a resignation, then she would have submitted a letter to Mr. Salazar this morning at a time when I had a whole bunch of other stuff going on.”

“So you rule out that she was fired?” Calmes asked.

“I'm — come on, I don't know,” Obama replied. “I'm telling you the — I found out about it this morning. So I don't yet know the circumstances, and Ken Salazar has been in testimony on the Hill.”

An administration official explained after the press conference that Salazar told the President Wednesday night that he had decided to replace Birnbaum at the Minerals Management Service after the President told the Secretary to make sure that every person under him was “capable of doing the job he or she had.”

“The President had not spoken with Secretary Salazar to discuss how the replacement was carried out by the time of the press conference,” the official said.

Officials have portrayed Birnbaum’s resignation decision as a voluntary move by the MMS director, who has held the job only since July 2009. It also comes at a time when the White House has felt increased pressure over its response to the oil spill.

Birnbaum was scheduled to testify Thursday alongside Interior Secretary Ken Salazar before a subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee. But she was not present as Salazar began speaking, and her written, prepared remarks weren’t distributed to the public.

Perhaps they should make sure everyone they hire can do the job they are hired for.

The President can't even do the job. What difference does it make if anyone else can?

The Amazing Links Between Barack Obama and Goldman Sachs
Christopher Jon Bjerknes
http://www.jewishracism.com
http://www.jewishracism.blogspot.com
Political commentators ranging from David Duke to Lou Dobbs have noted the connections of such men as Henry Paulson, Neel Kashkari, Warren Buffet, Robert Rubin, and others to Goldman Sachs, Barack Obama and the banker bailouts. I find that the connections go further back between Obama and Goldman Sachs than the Presidential race and banker bailouts, which theft Obama supported.
For quite some time, I have been writing about the truly bizarre Illinois race to fill Fitzgerald's US Senate seat, which after many twists and turns ultimately resulted in Barack Obama's Senatorial victory. I predicted that Obama had skeletons in his closet and pointed out that there was much to be learned from the Senate race which catapulted Barack Obama to fame and made him the darling of media Jews like Larry King long before he announced that he would run for President, in among others, the following blogs:

Call for a Live Debate: Barack Obama Versus John J. Mearsheimer and Stephen M. Walt: September 12, 2007
Beating Barack: January 08, 2008
As I noted long ago, the Republicans and Democrats appeared to make a concerted and coordinated effort to put Obama into office. I will now elaborate on the many ties between Obama and Goldman Sachs, his amazing victories against all odds, his financing, the collapse of his rivals' campaigns, etc.
Obama first ran in the Democratic primary of the US Senate seat vacated by Peter Fitzgerald, the son of a wealthy banker, who inexplicably decided not to run for reelection, perhaps to make way for Obama. The front runner in the Democratic primary race was the fabulously wealthy Blair Hull. Hull had a substantial lead over Obama in the polls.
Blair Hull sold his interest in The Hull Group to Goldman, Sachs & Co. in 1999. Hull's campaign fell apart when the press learned that there might be issues involving his former wife in their divorce proceedings which would embarrass Hull. The New York Times reports that,
"Axelrod is known for operating in this gray area, part idealist, part hired muscle. It is difficult to discuss Axelrod in certain circles in Chicago without the matter of the Blair Hull divorce papers coming up. As the 2004 Senate primary neared, it was clear that it was a contest between two people: the millionaire liberal, Hull, who was leading in the polls, and Obama, who had built an impressive grass-roots campaign. About a month before the vote, The Chicago Tribune revealed, near the bottom of a long profile of Hull, that during a divorce proceeding, Hull's second wife filed for an order of protection. In the following few days, the matter erupted into a full-fledged scandal that ended up destroying the Hull campaign and handing Obama an easy primary victory. The Tribune reporter who wrote the original piece later acknowledged in print that the Obama camp had 'worked aggressively behind the scenes' to push the story. But there are those in Chicago who believe that Axelrod had an even more significant role — that he leaked the initial story. They note that before signing on with Obama, Axelrod interviewed with Hull. They also point out that Obama's TV ad campaign started at almost the same time. Axelrod swears up and down that 'we had nothing to do with it' and that the campaign's television ad schedule was long planned. 'An aura grows up around you, and people assume everything emanates from you,' he told Me."--Ben Wallace-Wells, "Obama's Narrator", The New York Times Magazine, (1 April 2007),
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/01/magazine/01axelrod.t.html?pagewanted=4&_r=1&ei=5070&en=765f1fc42884f6d3&ex=1177905600.
David Axelrod is a Zionist Jew. He helped Obama defeat Hillary Clinton, who is now being talked about as Obama's likely pick for Secretary of State. Bill Richardson has been appointed as Obama's Commerce Secretary. It is interesting that both ran against Obama in the Presidential Primary and in effect helped Obama beat John Edwards, and are now going to be in Obama's cabinet. I believe the Jews did not want Hillary to win, because she would make an unpopular and divisive President, and that they wanted a popular President in order to win support for more Jewish wars.
So we find that Obama's competition for the Democratic primary in the Senate race, Blair Hull was taken out of the race by a scandal appearing on the pages of The Chicago Tribune. Blair Hull sold his interest in his company to Goldman Sachs. The scandal involved divorce proceedings. Make note of these facts, because almost exactly the same thing happened with Obama's next competitor, Jack Ryan.
Jack Ryan won the Republican primary for US Senate in Illinois. The Chicago Tribune pushed to gain access to his divorce proceedings, which allegedly contained scandalous information that would ruin Ryan's campaign. Jack Ryan was at one time a partner at Goldman Sachs. He dropped out of the race. Note the parallels between Ryan's rise and demise and the rise and demise of Blair Hull in the Senate race.
When Ryan dropped out of the race, the Republican Party abandoned all of the Illinois candidates for Senate, there were quite a few who petitioned to replace Ryan, and instead flew in the known loser and flake Alan Keyes, an old friend of the Zionist Jew William Kristol, to take Ryan's place as the Republican opposition to Obama. Keyes missed few opportunities to make an ass of himself, and Obama won handily.
In the Presidential primaries, John Edwards lost in a crowded field. Having a crowded field made the black block vote a decisive factor for Obama's win. The press jumped on Edwards and Clinton, but never laid a hand on Obama. They ensured Obama victory, as did the cluttered field. Those who helped Obama defeat Edwards are now receiving cabinet posts.
In the Republican Presidential Primary, the press and Mike Huckabee took out Mitt Romney, the candidate most likely to defeat Obama, and greased the way for John McCain, an old and deranged fool. Huckabee, like William Kristol, now appears on FOX News. William Kristol set up Sarah Palin to run with McCain as his Vice Presidential running mate. Like Kristol's old friend Alan Keyes, Palin promptly and perpetually made an ass of herself, ensuring Obama the victory.
I have only just scratched the surface of the interconnections and parallels between races. For example, Zionist Jew George Soros funded Obama's Senatorial campaign.
Obama's otherwise impossible rise to the Oval Office can only be understood by examining his Senatorial race and his connections to Jewry, in particular to the Jewish financiers who recently richly rewarded themselves at taxpayer expense with Obama's help. Obama is a lying, deceitful puppet of the Jews. He is not qualified to be President, and does not know what to do as President other than what his Jewish advisors tell him to do. He is an actor who pretends to be authoritative and confident, but it is just an act and a script. Alone, he is nothing. In the public realm, he is an actor placed on the stage to read off the Jewish script for our ruin.
The question naturally arises, why did the Jews invest so heavily in Obama and go to such tortuous lengths to get him elected President? I believe it is because they know that he is a psychopath who will push the button on command and start a nuclear Third World War.

What a novel and brilliant idea! Seriously, what a doof.

I was driving during some of his speech and everything he said had me gripping the steering wheel tighter. He seems so disingenuous to me.
