      These "Washington 500" still are not getting it. This problem is much bigger than Obama, but he is a big part of the current problem given his position.

    This president regularly visits Walter Reed. It is a great gesture on the presidents part to find the time to do this on a regular basis.

    The White House says North Korea's government should be focused on the well-being of its citizens, not on "celebrity sporting events" to entertain the country's elite. maybe he should run around with clooney, jay-z etc, what a hypocrite !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You do have to admit, Obama fundraising with celebrities and giving them tax breaks at times (that and NASCAR) is different than Kim Jong Un starving his people while he hangs out with a "star" or "celebrity" (if you can call Rodman that. But I agree, Obama does like to waste time making him self cool campaigning with his celebrity friends
