Memo: Valerie Jarrett Is Awesome (Need Examples)
A soon-to-be-released book by Mark Leibovich reveals in excruciating detail the White House’s efforts to defend longtime Obama friend and adviser Valerie Jarrett in the run-up to a New York Times profile that ran in September 2012.
Leibovich, himself a reporter for the New York Times, got ahold of a White House memo titled “The Magic of Valerie” that included 33 talking points circulated throughout the administration.
Some of the Jarrett talking points are listed:
The magic of Valerie is her intellect and her heart
She is an incredibly kind, caring and thoughtful person with a unique ability to pinpoint the voiceless and shine a light on them and the issues they and the President care about with the ultimate goal of making a difference in people’s lives.
Valerie is the perfect combination of smart, savvy and innovative.
They save the best for the end:
Valerie is someone here who other people inside the building know they can trust. (need examples.)
Remember: your hard-earned taxpayer dollars went towards the creation of this memo.
I sure hope they found some examples.

Why don’t you pass the time by playing a little solitaire?
JayC (1dd9ba) — 7/4/2013 @ 11:01 amValerie Jarrett donated a kidney to a person who didn’t really need it. She’s just that way.

SteveG (794291) — 7/4/2013 @ 1:50 pmBefore Michelle and Berry hit the big time, Valerie Jarrett was Bill Ayres’ bitch, now she doesn’t return his phone calls.
ropelight (a82805) — 7/4/2013 @ 2:52 pmValerie Jarrett is so thoughtful that she never interrupts the president’s golf game. She just makes decisions for him.
daleyrocks (bf33e9) — 7/4/2013 @ 2:55 pmValerie Jarrett is as much of a genius as Peter Gleick is.

Icy (48d2a0) — 7/4/2013 @ 3:04 pmValerie Jarrett: Best muppeteer evah!
Icy (48d2a0) — 7/4/2013 @ 3:06 pmHe!!, has there been a liberal politician who wasn’t special in the eyes of the media. The hagiography the goes on in the make believe media regarding progs is off the hook. zippy, hitlery, the goracle, et al. The list is endless. Just look at what’s written abut any dim presidential candidate. Name one that wasn’t hailed a genius during an election cycle.
Amalgamated Cliff Divers, Local 157 (f7d5ba) — 7/4/2013 @ 3:54 pmValerie Jarrett is so kind, caring, compassionate and thoughtful that she makes Mother Theresa look like Hitler. Valerie is JUST.THAT.AWESOME.

elissa (18e70c) — 7/4/2013 @ 4:09 pmValerie Jarrett thinks people who actually run for office are stupid. Why bother?
elissa (18e70c) — 7/4/2013 @ 4:11 pmValerie Jarrett is so kind that she has helped to make life in the horrible prison of the White House actually bearable for First Lady Michelle Obama.
daleyrocks (bf33e9) — 7/4/2013 @ 4:48 pmWhat a maroon.

—apologies to Richard Thompson, and “Valerie”
Oh Valerie! You got Obama’s ear
Oh Valerie! You control what he hears
Born in Iran with a Communist past
If the public knew about you they’d be aghast
The way you control the President and First Lady
Well they’re wait, wait, waiting on Valerie
Hey Valerie! She was part of a ring
Valerie! That built public housing
Collected immense subsidy sums
For shoddy buildings, instant slums
Lots of poor tenants now living in misery
After en-, en-, enriching Valerie
If you’re in the West Wing, better genuflect
To all of her whims, wherever she directs
If you don’t, never you fear
In a twinkling you’ll find yourself out on your ear
Yes, she’ll have you thrown out on your ear
Oh Valerie! Oh Valerie! Oh Valerie!
Well Valerie! When bin Laden was found
Valerie! You turned the mission down
Three different times you nixed the “gutsy call”
Now Obama runs around spiking that football
Oblivious that he risked popularity
By wait, wait, waiting for Valerie
She is unvetted and uncontrolled
Wields massive power through a personal hold
Isn’t it disturbing that such as she
Can determine the President’s policy?
Foreign and domestic policy?
Oh Valerie! No-one knows what she do
Valerie! She’s paid by me and you
She quietly pulls strings behind the scenes
Nobody knows what’s behind the screen
Except that she’s Obama’s number one crony
We don’t need, need, need any more Valerie
Don’t need, need, need any more Valerie
We don’t need, need, need any more Valerie
Valerie! Oh Valerie! Well! Whooo!
buzzsawmonkey (b3e454) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:17 pmWell played!
daleyrocks (bf33e9) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:23 pmNever heard of Richard Thompson before. Wears a hat like Phil Keaggy and plays the guitar more like Leo Kottke (when not doing slide).
But I wondered if it was the same song as “Valerie” by the Monkees
By what I really want to know is whether there were any official WH replies to:
MD in Philly (3d3f72) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:43 pm(need examples.)
Valerie never did anything illegal… unless you count all those times she sold dope dressed as a nun.
luagha (1de9ec) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:44 pmWas that the same one, Steve Winwood covered.
narciso (3fec35) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:44 pmValerie Jerrett is the power, and the one is her mouthpiece
MD in Philly (3d3f72) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:46 pm?
Steve Winwood covered a Monkees tune??
Being silly, time to go, g’night
MD in Philly (3d3f72) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:47 pmMight have been a different lyric.
narciso (3fec35) — 7/4/2013 @ 5:54 pmValJar must be absolutely frothing at the mouth over this humiliation and being a world wide web laughing stock.
elissa (18e70c) — 7/4/2013 @ 8:56 pmBegin or ebd all of these sentences with “For a communist POS,…”
Bugg (b32862) — 7/4/2013 @ 8:57 pmRichard Thompson!

She shined a light on the voiceless, the helpless? Not funny at all. The only light that I can remember, was the light that that so-called doctor shined in my eyes as he tore me limb from limb from my mommy’s womb!
An aborted baby (127915) — 7/4/2013 @ 10:27 pmShoot Out the Lights is an awesome album.
Jack Klompus (ddf2d4) — 7/4/2013 @ 11:03 pmCannot decide which is more impressive about her-her totuting of fellow commie Van Jones, working for slumlord Rezko or trying to delay the OBL raid until Pannetta and Hilalry freaked out and read The One the riot act to disregard her idiocy.
Bugg (b32862) — 7/5/2013 @ 7:27 amValerie Jarrett is a white house puppet on strings controlled by George Soros.
trav (b74721) — 7/7/2013 @ 1:56 pmIn 2017, we are going to see the most hilarious avalanche of “tell all” memoirs from the Obama administration as the various back stabbing syncophants try to blame the other backstabbing sycophants for the massive failures of Obama’s terms.
