Oh, how times have changed. The man who used to fill stadiums is now having trouble filling community college recreation centers.
Cleveland.com has the story of the empty suit who now faces seats as empty as his promises:
With less than an hour before President Obama’s scheduled speech, 75 seats remained empty in the recreation center at Cuyahoga Community College’s Western Campus.
So organizers went around campus and recruited more students to fill the seats.
Student Jennifer Rahal, of Parma Heights, whose class was canceled today, was working on her art work in the coffee shop in the basement of the building when the call went out for more guests.
After dropping off their stuff at a bag check, the newly invited guests cleared security and filed into the gym.
The math on this one is pretty simple: Empty suit plus empty promises equals empty seats.

I wonder if Malik Sahbaz (spelling) New Black Panthers, knows Obumer is "half-cracker" as he has said "I want to kill every iota of a cracker"!
Think someone ought to tell him? ;-)
I think the old saying "if you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything" line is in play big time with Obama. His biggest supporters believe in nothing & if they do believe in something, they can't tell you why. They might say they "feel good" about it, but only tell me what I knew already, that libs are ruled by emotion, not by reason & logic.
Our beloved (?) Half-Cracker™ president might want to heed some advice from Bob Dylan:
"You'd better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone
For the times, they are a'changing."
Wasn't it PT Barnum who said "You can bull shit all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can't bull shit all of the people all of the time"? Perhaps Obombie-the-commie should pay attention.
No, I believe that is a spin off of a Lincoln quote.
Barnum said "There's a sucker born every minute"....and unfortunately everyone of them voted for Captain Zero!
I thought it was Mrs. P.T.Barnum who said that, just before she invented the baby bottle. ;-)
dammit USN-R! It's like you always have jusssst the right humor to punch giant holes in the sky with hardly a few syllables. Always a pleasure!
Thank you for your kind words.
Though raised in rather serious surroundings, I later rebelled and, by-passing the halls of academia, chose rather the halls of Macademia where I studied barbed repartee with Groucho Marx and song parody with Allan Sherman. Plus I'm not adverse to stealing,.....uhh. recycling good material. ;-)
I wouldn't walk across the street to see him for free.
I would cross the street to get away from him, in order to avoid the urge to coldcock him in the back of the cranium once passed, had I remained.
You couldn't pay me to waste my time listening to this empty suit.
Only if I get to ask him questions.
Maybe this time they are not offering college credits to attend.
Even air head college punks get it eventually. Obama is the master of speaking for hours and saying nothing at all.

I was saying that before he was elected. No one would listen.
