It's We the People Not Me the President

The majority of Americans do not want a Muslim cultural center near Ground Zero. President Obama doesn't care what we want.

The majority of Americans agree with Arizona's Senate Bill 1070 regarding illegal immigrants. President Obama doesn't care what we want.

The majority of Americans do not want his Health Care bill. President Obama doesn't care what we want.

President Obama made history as the first sitting president on a daytime talk show when he visited with the ladies of "The View." (1) Sadly he missed out on another historic occasion -- the Boy Scouts' Jamboree marking the group's 100th anniversary. But given a choice between celebrating we the people, he decided to showcase Me the President.

This is the most "Me the President" we have ever elected.





There are numerous websites now selling bumper stickers, fridge magnets, t-shirts and other items with the phrase "It's We the People, NOT Me the President!" and even a few Facebook pages. Hopefully we will all wake up and realize that this experiment in socialism is just not good for our way of life.

FoxNews, 27 Jul 2010, Obama Missing Historic Boy Scout Jamboree for Fundraisers, 'View' Taping

The Jamboree kicked off this week at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia, where organizers had invited the president to speak to the 45,000 scouts in attendance. All three of Obama's predecessors have made it to one Jamboree while in office.

But the president will instead be traveling Wednesday to New York for a taping of the ABC show, as well as Democratic fundraisers and a stop in New Jersey. The talk show appearance comes as campaign season moves into full swing, but also amid efforts to cap the Gulf oil spill for good, contain the damage from an unprecedented leak of Afghanistan war documents and battle Arizona over its immigration law -- set to go into effect Thursday. Obama also has an out-of-town event planned for Friday in Detroit.

But while the Jamboree lasts until next Tuesday, the president is sending his regards via a videotaped message.

Boy Scouts of America spokesman Deron Smith said the organization knew Obama's invitation would hinge on his schedule and found out two months ago that he would not be able to attend.

"It just depends on his schedule," he said, adding that "there's always a spot" available for the president during the Jamboree. Obama also serves as honorary president of the Boy Scouts of America.

The White House said Tuesday that the fundraisers, not the TV appearance, prevented the president from attending.

"We were always going to be out of town that day," Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer told FoxNews.com in an e-mail. "It was never canceled."
