Too busy for Wisconsin or Finland - Mark Steyn "Our Celebrity President": "There are monarchies and republics aplenty, but there’s only one 24/7 celebrity fundraising presidency. If it’s Tuesday, it must be Kim Cattrall, or Hootie and the Blowfish, or Laverne and Shirley, or the ShamWow guy . . . I wonder if the Queen ever marvels at the transformation of the American presidency since her time with Truman. Ah, well. If you can’t stand the klieg-light heat of Obama’s celebrity, stay out of the Beverly Wilshire kitchen."

Sorry, Mr. Prime Minister!

OH NOES! The President raises money! He goes on vacations! He uses a teleprompter! His Christmas card has the wrong wording! He flies in a plane for free! He eats with a fork! His shoes point in slightly different directions! He doesn't pay rent!

EVERYTHING IS ALL DIFFERENT NOW
OBAMA RUINS EVERYTHING
WHY CAN'T WE HAVE A NON-CELEBRITY PRESIDENT, LIKE RONALD REAGAN?

I was unfair when I said he did nothing in Wisconsin.

Obama sent a tweet.

The Supreme Court has determined that meaningful campaign finance reform is unconstitutional.

As a result, an incumbent who isn't out raising the dough risks being buried by a challenger who is being super-funded by those with bank accounts full of bonus First Amendment rights.

The Supreme Court has seen to it that this will be the reality going forward.
