Obama Visits The View

With poll numbers plummeting and his presidency becoming a very unpopular one, U.S. President Obama, has taken to the airwaves, in an attempt to charm the nation. Obama is also undertaking a summer tour of U.S. cities, to gain support for his floundering presidency that went from 60MPH to 0MPH over the course of one year. The honeymoon certainly didn't last long, but this is squarely Obama's fault.

Rather than assume office and make sensible, prudent financial cuts, eliminate wasteful programs and dedicate a small set of funds to those that truly needed it, Obama essentially threw money out the window, hoping it would land in the right places and 90% of the time it did not.

The Judiciary Report endorsed financial assistance for companies like GM in the auto sector and it paid off, as they regained some footing and repaid the loan. The Judiciary Report endorsed financial assistance for AIG, as they are such a large company, with so many tentacles in a number of U.S. and foreign sectors, to have denied them help, would have meant a massive collapse, bearing a domino effect.

While they have returned to profitability, the Obama Administration did not have proper controls on how the money was distributed and excessive bonuses were issued out of taxpayer money.

The Obama Administration and it's predecessor, also threw money at a number of financial companies that did not need the assistance, essentially hording taxpayer money at their respective corporations, running up the national deficit.

The Judiciary Report has endorsed scaling back on FBI, CIA and NSA spying activities, being conducted against millions of Americans, as not only is it illegal, it is costing the nation tens of billions of dollars. There are a number of other wasteful programs that need to be revised and reined in as well.

Rather than wasting time on a number of vacations and publicity tours, Obama should be at the White House, feverishly working to correct the number of wrongs that have occurred and seeking and implementing ways to improve America, after the massive damage it has sustained.

There is a fine line in pruning and prepping a government for success and the Obama Administration has crossed that line and landed on the wrong side of it. Not to mention, the wrong side of world history.

Obama To Embark On Summer Tour

U.S. President Obama, First Lady Michelle and daughters, Malia and Sasha

Still adhering to an unsound Hollywood style presidency that is not working, U.S. President Barack Obama, has announced he is to take to the road this summer, on a tour of American cities, to shore up support for his administration's failing policies.

In other news, his wife, First Lady Michelle Obama, is set to vacation in Spain with her daughters, Malia and Sasha, sans the President and on his birthday, which he will be left to celebrate with Bo, the First Dog. Marital trouble, anyone.

American Idol Tour Goes Bust

The American Idol tour, which takes karaoke contestants from the show on a series of concerts, is imploding, as ticket sales have been very poor, forcing the cancellation of several dates.

The show's ratings have plummeted as well, with accompanying record sales in the toilet. The phony show, produced and promoted by, Simon Fuller and Simon Cowell, has hit the skids. Reach for the stars (sarcasm).

"American Idol" Joins List of Shortened Summer Tours

Post a Comment July 7, 2010 - LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The "American Idol" U.S. tour was cut short by two weeks on Wednesday, less than a week after it kicked off, joining artists ranging from the Jonas Brothers to the Eagles who have pulled out of summer dates.

Eight scheduled shows by the Top 10 "Idol" finalists, including winner Lee DeWyze and runner-up Crystal Bowersox , were dropped and others dates re-scheduled, according to concert promoters Live Nation.

The tour, which started on July 1, will now end on August 31 instead of September 16. "American Idol" publicists declined to comment on the reasons.

The move follows what was considered a lackluster season of the Fox television singing contest, which lost about nine percent of its audience this year. So far only DeWyze and Bowersox have signed record deals...

Rihanna's Ride Is Over

Rihanna and boyfriend Matt Kemp

Fake singer, Rihanna, was spotted looking like a gloomy gus, accompanied by boyfriend, Los Angeles Dodger, Matt Kemp, while stomping around town. She continues to miss abusive ex-boyfriend, Chris Brown, who she got into a fight with, resulting in charges against him and the decline of their careers.

Her career is also on a massive downward spiral with failed sales in the music department and a world tour that has been anything but, as it has flopped, only selling 1/5th of the tickets.

Writers and bloggers are now claiming she has proven a distraction to Kemp and it is tanking his career as a baseball player as well. Dodger crowds are not happy.

Rihanna Cancels More Tour Dates


Rihanna

Fallen faux-singer, Rihanna, has been canceling concert dates left, right and center. It was initially reported only 20% of the tickets to her latest tour had been sold, which really was reason enough not to put gas in the tour bus. However, she pressed on with the endeavor anyway and now faces the embarrassment of having to cancel her opening date and several concerts on the U.S. leg of the tour.

This is after the world tour fell to pieces with poor sales. In short, people have moved on from her. However, that's not stopping Rihanna from rushing out another CD, which is sure to be ram packed with garbage, as past efforts have been. Her CDs are frequent and lack quality. A vocal coach wouldn't hurt her audience's ears either. Most of it contains copyrights she has stolen from others and deteriorated. Her fall from grace has been appropriate, as she is nothing but a fake with nothing new to bring to the musical table.

Chris Brown Tour Cancelled As Visa Denied


Chris Brown and new Rihanna look-alike girlfriend, but she is an upgrade

Convicted woman beating Sony Music R&B crooner, Chris Brown, just had cold water thrown on his tour by the British government, as they denied him entry into the U.K. for a series of concerts, whose tickets have already been sold.

After Brown's legal troubles, regarding beating girlfriend and fellow singer, Rihanna, for attacking him in a rented Lamborghini, culminated into his arrest and guilty plea, he became ineligible to visit many countries that bar people with criminal records, as a precaution to their own citizens and residents.

Brown expected to flout this international rule, by placing tickets on sale, hoping it would force world governments' hands on the issue, but it failed. As a result, the concert promoter and insurance company are out large sums of money on a gamble gone wrong.

Message To Bret Michaels

Bret Michaels

Poison frontman and reality TV star, Bret Michaels, suffered a relapse in his health, after a brain hemorrhage (aneurysm) that occurred last month. Last week, he suffered a stroke, which is a different type of brain bleed.

As some of you know, I sustained an unprecedented brain hemorrhage in October 2008. I have not incurred a repeat aneurysm since and would like to offer Michaels some friendly advice.

First of all, you should take it easy. I've read of your tour and television plans and it will jeopardize your health. You've already been doing stressful interviews since being released from the hospital and have actively been planning a comeback, slated to launch in a matter of days, which is ill-advised.

For two weeks after I had the aneurysm, centered in a part of the occipital lobe that doctors had no precedent for, not even in the Mayo Clinic database, I could not even see straight, as the phrase goes. Literally. Things were blurry and I couldn't even read the text on television shows.

I even struggled to read items on my computer screen, as two lines of text, would merge into one line, due to the aneurysm. My 20/20 vision was gone, but after constant prayer, my vision returned in two weeks.

Vitamins And Iron Supplements

The things that helped me were quite simple and I believe they will help you as well. Take a good, reputable multi-vitamin. Take iron tablets as well (if your doctor says it is okay for you), as it helps with the blood and can ward off anemia, which I experienced. Anemia can contribute to and intensify the dizziness brain bleeds create. You should also drink plenty of sugarless fluids.

Depression

After a hemorrhage, the probability of depression is pretty high, due to the trauma one has sustain. Your mind begins to process the fact your brain was bleeding, which can become unsettling. Most medical journals indicate, one can become depressed and tearful without warning, after said event. It's also a physical reaction in the brain that will affect your emotions for a time.

Comedy

Watching funny, light hearted shows, even some from your childhood that made you happy, will lift your mood. I rediscovered old sitcoms and movies that made me laugh and it cheered me up.

Music Therapy

Music therapy is also good. Many underestimate the positive effects of music therapy on people's cognition, emotions, well being, will to survive and mood. Soothing and inspirational music helps the brain and boosts serotonin levels. It also has a calming effect, which relieves involuntary and unwanted anxiety and depression brought on by hemorrhages.

Headaches And Head Pains

After brain bleeds, one will experience a new breed of headaches and head pains. It is almost as though the diametric of the brain has changed for some, making one prone to more severe head aches and potential repeat hemorrhages.

Medication

Be careful regarding the medicine doctors will prescribe, as some such as Topamax, will do more harm than good and you can develop other terrible maladies such as metabolic acidosis, which can turn deadly if not treated in time. In short, watch what they give you for the headaches and head pains, as it can deteriorate your health even further.

Nausea

Nausea will be another problem, which can get pretty bad, constantly provoking your gag reflexes, before, during and after meals. Green tea or ginger tea helps with the nausea that becomes persistent for many. Deep breathing and holding your head back for a short period of time, helps suppress your gag reflexes urge, to make you conduct an involuntary regurgitating session with the toilet bowl.

Bret, that's green tea, not weed. I know you're a musician, so I have to be specific

Once again, touring and constant air travel is not a good idea for you right now. Changes in altitude and cabin pressure will wreak havoc on your head, creating intense headaches and head pains.

The stress of traveling on tour, long lines, flying, tour buses, checking into hotels after retrieving your luggage, sound checks (another serious headache source) is not good for you at this time.

You need to give yourself a chance to heal, as the blood from the initial hemorrhage and separately the stroke, most likely have not reabsorbed into the brain yet. Significant stress can cause another aneurysm or stroke, decreasing your probability of survival, which is very serious. Best wishes on your recovery.

Whitney Houston On The Brink


Whitney Houston
Pop singer, Whitney Houston, is on the brink of collapse. Her comeback tour continues to be panned all over the world, while Houston spirals further into addiction. Contrary to what her label Sony is telling you, all is not well with Whitney. If she does not regain control of her life, she could overdose.

Step back from that ledge, Whitney. Life is too important to jeopardize it over a career, addiction and bad influences.
