Obama was there another fund raising trip He went to one dinner party -- Will Smith.

And then another one and Melanie Griffith NN Turk Antonio Banderas is -- It was something need money that badly yeah.

Antonio Banderas is houses and take it up.

President Obama.

And liberal I'll land to raise campaign cash -- bottom to bypass congress on the economy.

Take a listen to a Charles Krauthammer thinks of Obama's latest plan.

Now that the Republicans have prevented any legislative remedy I'm gonna act unilaterally -- and my own.

Through executive action -- own fix housing He knows that this is a farce.

Joining me now Republican strategist Cheri just publisher you first it was a binding obamacare in 2009.

-- it was -- to -- -- -- -- few months ago.

Now he's gonna go ahead and -- congress once again -- this president seems to be I don't He loves the executive order -- signs quite often.

Well when He can't -- -- to their regular channels in dealing with elected officials the people that.

That were elected by is citizens -- to come to Washington to work for the president president just what He just blocks away like a spoiled boy.

As if I'm not playing anymore unless I get my way and that's what he's doing and I don't think that's going to Wear well the American people we've we've seen.

Sort of the negative impact.

On the country when this president just wants to barrel through with this on ideas such as with obamacare and we -- many Democrats lose their jobs their reputations and their careers as a result of that when the voters threw them out.

Sell it a little bit confusing to me.

Why President Obama and his supposedly very smart political advisors would what would would undertake this type of strategy -- clearly it's failed so miserably for him in the past what it.

Is that I'm trying to if you have the strategy here it almost seems like he's we have spends a lot of time on the campaign trail the bus tour the Martha's Vineyard vacation and the other bus -- But but is it that -- he's trying to create a situation where it looks like Republicans are congress.

Held.

By Republicans is the road block to the rule on the road to recovery and it almost exactly what -- He proposes these things knowing very well they're going to fail.

-- Right well the FEE.

Failed many Atlantic responsibility for that I think actually this president's kind of -- an -- So he's trying to lay the blame the Republicans and -- He did add if you stay in town -- in town actually -- to work with Republicans and Democrats who are not necessarily in his pocket.

He doesn't want to do that he'd rather play the blame blame game.

Think on the road but I think voters are a little bit smarter than that I think -- after this last election.

A year ago we see that the voters are very savvy and accountability means more to them than perhaps it has in the recent past.

So that's why they're risky strategy we like is that we've seen that with obamacare.

So for the president to go out and do this to keep running to the safety and the security of the -- of the Hollywood.

Where people aren't hurting you know that it's it's like he's given up.

He does finally Republican if I didn't study shows up my it -- the -- -- -- the highly Gigabeat.

It's show us something -- it shows some of all things going on nine point 1% and employment things are but you know Bolivia's.

Crashing and burning the and He still spans all this time on the campaign trail a couple weeks ago North Carolina.

Virginia now the West Coast it really doesn't matter what's going on in the world the man is going to raise enough money.

So when He He feels I guess.

They can -- the election.

Well I think that we now he's going to be raising a lot of money did last time as well that I I think he's also up there obviously there -- money that He does not want to be in Washington He does not want to face the challenges He wants to violate blame.

I'm Republicans bit but He can't promise benefits not just Republicans -- a lot of Democrats that are distancing themselves.

From him so it's going to become increasingly.

More difficult for him to get that kind of support out on the campaign trail it because in a congressional district after congressional district and the democratic comment somehow you know has to be elsewhere that day.

So it's a very risky strategy from a political standpoint yes He will raise money even in these tough economic times.

We've seen at the left is able to somehow raise money.

But he's in he's got the mixed messages with regard to that occupy a lot street crowd you know he's he's.

Dealing with that very wealthy people in capitalists he's not taking care of business here in Washington.

I just don't think that's going to work for him very well on the long run prison based TS but a lot of people in the -- absolutely not immunize your age analyst thank you very much for joining us think Joseph.
