WH’s Valerie Jarrett Asks Uniformed Officer to Top Off Her Drink
Did someone have a few too many?
According to the Daily Caller, White House senior advisor Valerie Jarrett asked a uniformed military officer to refresh her drink during an exclusive D.C. dinner party Monday evening, apparently mistaking him for a member of the wait staff:
According to our tipster, Jarrett was seated at the head table along with several other big-name politicians and a handful of high-ranking military officials. As an officer sporting several stars walked past Jarrett, she signaled for his attention and said, “I’d like another glass of wine.”…
White House economic adviser Austan Goolsbee, who was seated next to Jarret, began “cracking up nervously,” our tipster said, but no one pointed out to Jarrett that the man sporting a chestful of medals was not her waiter.
“The guy dutifully went up and got her a glass of wine, and then came back and gave it to her and took a seat at the table,” our tipster said. “Everyone is in tuxedos and gowns at this thing, but the military people are in full dress uniform.”

Posted on February 1, 2011 at 10:32pmLast eveing, I took my daughter to a professional career interview at a Dr.’s office. A female patient, obviouly my senior, had just completed a visit with a member of the Dr.s’ staff and retrieved her coat from the coat rack. With NO prompting, I asked, :May I help you with that?” She was BEAMING that someone still knew how to ask to help a lady on with her coat. My only response was, “My father taught me well.” I doffered her up snug against the cold night air and watched as she walked with her head held high that such a courteous gesture had been offered.

As an aside, I was able to fit into my 27yr old ORIGINAL CrackerJacks last month to serve as a pall bearer for my late fathers’ cousin who was a decorated Vietnam Vet (CAPT, USMC). Damned if I didn’t smile with pride at the reflection in the mirror. Great trim of BROWN ****, a fit and presentable uniform, a soanking new Dixie cap that I had purchased only a few months ago, all worn with pride and respect. I looked as sharp as the Marine Reservists who presented the flag to his wife of 44 years.

In humility and “service” the officer said nothing but came to Ms. Jarrett’s assistance. I pray she recognized his help and honors the servicemen in WH policy.
What is sad is that the, obviously aware, guest who laughed did not intervene and apologize to the officer on her behalf. Is no one brave enough to say “The Queen has no clothes”?

Posted on February 1, 2011 at 9:25pmI agree but something more interesting happened yesterday on O’Reilly that EVERYONE has overlooked. When Marc Lamont Hill was on with O he said he spoke with Jarrett earlier in the day before the ruling on Obamacare. Exactly why/ what about we dont know and this should be a a red flag to folks.
He is a hardcore radical progressive professor but nothing special to be speaking to someone so high up the food chain in govt. I dont recall any other prof’s, radical or not, being in contact with the Pres’s adviser. Was Ward Churchill in direct contact with the WH, more importantly the Pres’s senior advisor? Doesnt anyone find this odd for the run of the mill college professor? I do not think I am blowing this out of proprtion or making something out of nothing..
Some might consider Hill harmless but I do not agree I make no distinction btwn how radical of a progressive he is compared to say oh I dunno Van Jones! Why is he in contact with HER in the first place?
Someone needs to do some digging as to what this hardcore progressive is up to…. he is teaching your children at Columbia!

Anyone with any humility knows to recognize all others – including their wait-staff as people worthy of respect. She should have looked him in the eye when making the request and again when thanking him. She probably didn’t even thank him. Like her White House crony-phonies, the lady has no real class because she lacks integrity.
If I’d been the uniformed officer, I’d have done the same thing. He showed true class!.

Do y’all remember, back a hundred years or so ago, when the women’s movement hadn’t started yet when chivalry WASN’T dead? Of course you don’t, because even though you see yourselves as “correct thinkers” all you can do is look for the “D” or “R” and immediately have your cookie-cutter responses already cut and pasted before you have time to think.
On this story, i am ashamed of my fellow blazers who knee-jerked to respond to this.

It wasn’t uncommon for WH staffers to tell high-ranking officers (LT Col and above) to get them coffee. The leftists are threatened by military officers. They take an oath to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic and many of them believe in this. I did, and I do.

Lol, seriously, i see your point, and i believe she mistook the Officer for a waiter which was bad form, nothing more and nothing less, but the integrity of that General? was outstanding, never saying a word in rebuttal but instead serving her as if it was a party thrown during the Civil War, when then officers still saw themselves as the servants to any civilian.
Although, back then, the ladies at LEAST respected those officers/gentlemen.

Could the officer kindly looked at her and told her otherwise, of course he could of but instead he acted as a gentleman in spite of her and retrieved her another drink. However what is in question here is her maybe ineptness, her audacity possibly, her hubris would be accurate also. She was very much so disrespectful not only of his rank (while I realize the article never gave a specific rank, it is uncommon for lower ranking commissioned officers to attend such events, such is usually set for O-6′s and above) but it sounds as if she was rather boorish to him as a person. Her actions however seem to be right in step with the rest of this rather narcissistic and disrespectful administration, and walks in step with the level of regard or lack there of to be more precise that they give to not just the citizens of this nation but also my brothers and sisters in arms.
To that I stand by my words here, someone like her deserves no less than a letter of dismissal.

Posted on February 1, 2011 at 11:40pmI have to leave a slight retractment, in my slightly impaired state due to some rather potent pain killers I did miss where the article pointed out that it was indeed a General. so I would like to make that correction to my statement.

Posted on February 1, 2011 at 11:45pmThis story, from an anonymous “tipster”, isn’t worthy of a paragraph in the National Enquirer. If there’s any truth at all, I imagine everyone involved, including the “uniformed officer” had a good laugh (he did, evidently, get her the drink after all).
Geez how pathetic can the bait for low brow insults of the Obama administration get.

Posted on February 2, 2011 at 12:27amJZS it’s about as pathetic as the attempts at logical discourse used by people just like you. As a former military member what she did was no less then an insult to military personnel. Sorry but the time for excuses for their actions are over. Widen up quick because the useful idiots are the first to go, and things are looking Grimm for you so far.

No, i can definately dig all that, but as a former Marine, and a Georgia boy, I ignored all that as it doesn’t matter in the face of duty. Did he later laugh about it and say to his (officer) buddy “can you BELIEVE what this &^%$ had me do??” You are damn right he did! And now he has a story to tell everyone always, which as a former military member, that is all we do. Collect stories.
My point was to mearly deflect the headline and topic from one that feeds the nacassistic meanderings of the typical poster here to one of Honor and Duty, to have them respect those serving in uniform as they deserve.
My bad.

“I think it is contempt.”
Unfortunately I have to agree with you. Nothing against you, I’m just sick and tired of reading about how the left has an attitude of “We are living Gods”… sent here to protect you savages from yourselves.
This savage would like a chance to send all of our progressives back to Mother Russia or maybe to the Mid-East where they parctice that so-called “Religion of PEACE”.

Posted on February 2, 2011 at 6:22amYou know what makes me sad? YOU DO!!! And when I say You, I have to include myself. For so many years we have allowed these kind of criminal element to rise to the seat of power in the greatest nation the world has ever seen. The war is just beginning, we must fight them in our schools and in our local, state and federal government and judiciary. We must get them out of every position of power and influence we must never go back to sleep again. We need to stop funding them with our tax payer money with groups like ACORN, Plan Parenthood and UNO in Chicago. Don’t know who UNO is check it out some of the scams help many politicians like Obama and other achieve their political aspiration. These monies were supposed to go into help the poor in Chicago find jobs.

She glared at the man and said, “You opened that door cuz I’m a woman!” The man said, “No, I opened that door because I am a gentleman.”
This officer had a lot of class and Jerret is a moron.

Posted on February 2, 2011 at 11:09amThe article appears to be cut off. It doesn’t finish the story.
After sipping the wine, Jarrett spit it out in the officers face and screamed, “You expect a guest of the king to drink this cheap swill? Now go back to the kitchen, you commoner, and fetch me a wine fitting of a woman of my honor and prestige.”
She then turned to the table and muttered, “I detest these hillbillies. Tea-baggers, the lot of them.”
Jarrett later slapped her hands together, turned her nose up, and wondered aloud, “Now, which of these peasants is the shoe shine boy?”

Posted on February 2, 2011 at 12:38pmIt could just be that she doesn’t honestly know the difference between a waiter’s uniform and a highly decorated Officer’s uniform. Seriously, it’s not like Obama’s people have spent much (or any) time defending their country. In fact the opposite of that would be a more accurate statement!

Posted on February 3, 2011 at 3:02pmBut to me what is truly awesome in this story is this guy who is a 4 star general from what it sounds like in the article didnt say a word and went and got her drink. He showed the respect and demeanor of a true military man. Even though this chick wouldnt be fit to kiss his boots. All this does is show how honorable even 4 star generals are and how crappy politicians are.
