A source close to Barbra Streisand has said she will not perform at a fundraiser for President Obama next month in Los Angeles.

This can’t be music to the ears of the Obama re-election campaign. Especially considering the recent announcements by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Oprah Winfrey that they will not be joining Obama on the campaign trail.

While I am sure he wouldn’t admit it publicly, I am sure Obama wishes it was 2008 when he, Hillary, Oprah and Babs were the way they were.

Streisand sang for Clinton early and often. Hmmm...

On a totally unrelated note ... Tigers Win! Tigers Win!

Obama to Streisand: "Don't Rain on My Parade".

Well that's the best news Obama's gotten in years!! Is he supposed to be upset by her decision? Seriously, there's no way in hell he could listen to Barbara without earplugs in, and a stupid phony smile on his face, pretending he actually likes listening to her howling!! It nice to raise some easy money now and then, but raising it and selling your soul at the same time, pretending to like Streisand's singing is asking just a bit too much!!

you do realize that Obama had to ask for her to sing for her to turn him down, right? I mean celebrities and singers don't usually get to say "I'm going to sing for the president" he has to want to hear them perform.

Babs is not an antisemite. She does not hate her own people; like Ed Koch would say, enough is enough.

Romney's VP list:
1. Pat Toomey
Pros: PA is a swing state, former Club for Growth leader.
2. Marco Rubio
Pros: FL is a swing state, the Latino votes.
3. Mitch Daniel
Pros: a great "fiscal conservative", helped passed the "Right-to-Work" law.
4. Kelly Ayotte
Pros: a Catholic, former AG, and the women votes.
5. Chris Christie
Pros: NJ will turn red, former litigator, a fiscal hawk governor.
6. Paul Ryan
Pros: WI will turn red,a fiscal hawk legislator.
7. Bob McDonald
Pros: a fiscal and social conservative, southern heritage.
8. Pam Bandi
Pros: "photogenic" AG of FL, the women and Italian-American votes, and chief litigator on the multi-state lawsuit against Obamacare.
Cons: Single-lady

My pick: Gov. Chris Christie
Obama will be forced to campaign in a "safe" blue state, NJ, while Gov. Christie will be favorite to deliver NJ for GOP. Gov. Christie will help fix the economy and never surrender to the big-labors or bureaucrats. He vetoed the same-sex marriage bill. Recently, he traveled Israel and vowed to thwart Iran's fascist regime and its nuclear threat.

President: Mitt Romney
VP: Chris Christie

Why don't you start your own blog instead of posting this same comment on many threads here? We get it, you want CC, many of us don't

Wow. Looks like Judge Jerry Smith is giving Obama and the DOJ the fish slapping dance. (Monty Python's invention---quite amusing---a 3 page letter single spaced.)

Who cares who this tired old hag sings for?

...and?
file this story under "DILLIGAF"

What, Babs doesn't like The One constantly harping on higher taxes for the wealthy? How about his really nifty wealth tax? Or his really bad treatment of Bibi? You knew who Barack was the first time, but you still supported him. Stupid is as stupid does.
