A major national organization has invited the president to speak. This organization was a major supporter during the presidential campaign. Look how they got jerked around.

The NAACP invites the president to speak to the group July 16, the last day of its six-day convention at the Hilton in New York.

The White House's response: Absolutely, he's coming.

Then the Secret Service comes and says, "No," the Hilton is not suitable.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg says, "Why don't I give you Yankee Stadium?" It would be the president's biggest event since his inauguration.

A couple of days later comes the answer from someone in Obama's operation: We don't want to project that kind of image. We want something bigger than the Hilton, but not as big as Yankee Stadium.

The NAACP people have to bust their ass to come up with another place - and they do, finally, finding an armory in Harlem. There's no air conditioning, however, and we are talking New York in July here. The governor steps in and says he'll provide temporary air conditioning.

The White House then says, "OK, but we want to change the time - 2 p.m. for the president's speech is not acceptable anymore. We want 5 o'clock."

Unfortunately, the new White House demand conflicts with the black-tie dinner that the NAACP holds on the last day of the convention and would create a logistical nightmare.. Their message to the White House -- the speech is at 2:00, we hope he shows.

And to imagine that this is how the Obama Regime treats the president's supporters -- what do the rest of us have to expect?
