RNC Sends the DNC a ‘You Didn’t Bake This‘ Cake in Honor of Obama’s Birthday…and the DNC Sends it Back

It‘s President Barack Obama’s birthday, but it seems the Republican National Committee’s efforts to get in on the celebration were rebuffed.
The RNC on Friday sent the Democratic National Committee a birthday cake in the president’s honor, but the DNC sent it back.
The cake’s frosting message? “You didn’t bake this” — a riff on Obama’s “you didn’t build that” remark.
“Since President Obama’s birthday is tomorrow, we actually wish him a happy 50.99726 years with this ‘you didn’t bake that’ cake,” RNC spokesman Tim Miller told Yahoo! News Friday.
The oddly specific number is a knock on the White House’s explanation that “the unemployment rate ticked up to 8.3% in July (or, more precisely, the rate rose from 8.217% in June to 8.254% in July).” The RNC on Friday also rolled out a series of mocking birthday e-cards to help Obama ring in the big 5-1.
“We do know that hard working, smart entrepreneurs across the country join us in wishing the president a happy birthday and hoping that next year he has more time for baking so the country can get back to job creating,” Miller said.
But the DNC didn’t bite.
“This is typical of Mitt Romney’s approach to the middle class,” DNC spokeswoman Melanie Roussell told The Hill. “He wants to ‘Let them eat cake!’ while robbing them blind. We sent the cake back to the RNC, along with a copy of the Tax Center’s report on Mitt Romney’s tax plan.”
The cake was vanilla with vanilla frosting, according to Yahoo! News.

Posted on August 4, 2012 at 11:59amIf Most stupid American’s understood what Obama meant by “You didn’t build this” our Country would be vacated.
Do you know what he meant when he said that? He was labeling you a slave to the Federal Reserve.
Why? Because we have no legal money in circulation, their called Federal Reserve Notes and investments with said notes DO NOT BELONG TO YOU!
Your not spending Sovereign money on Sovereign LAND! Is anyone paying attention?
Moreover:
Since the 2005 restructure, they are printing Fed reserve notes on the traded value of your legal fiction.
Definition? Any SS Card post 2005 has a red 8 digit code on the back which coincides with a Federal Reserve Note floating around in circulation.
Synopsis.. Our FRN’s in circulation right now are printed on your future productivity, so for all intent and purpose, The Federal Reserve is PRINTING BACK YOUR DEBT TO EVERYONE!
Wake up, get educated about the changes that have happened in this country starting as far back as 1871. All the Federal reserve does now is Print Debt and issue credit, THAT‘S IT FOLK’S! So to wrap this up in a bow, YOU DID NOT BUILD THAT! IT WASN’T YOUR MONEY, IT WAS ISSUED TO YOU AS DEBT.
Hopefully Obama will be out in 2012, just don’t pin your “Hopes” on it for change, and BTW, get over the false parigdime and see things for what they are. IT’S NOT THEIR JOB TO REPRESENT YOU. THEY REPRESENT THE CORPORATE STATES OF AMERICA. No man is an island.

Posted on August 4, 2012 at 12:24pmMr. President, you have 1st Amendment Rights, but you also have the consequences of stating what you are thinking. In this case that you are an enemy of our Constitution.
In defense of the 2nd amendment, it is not just about defending yourself against criminals or hunting. It is primarily for throwing off the yoke of tyranny. If the form of tyranny is U.S. soldiers -that have agreed in an obama admin poll- to fire on U.S. Citizens, so be it. That makes assault rifles essential and We should remember the ‘shall not be infringed’ part of the RIGHT.

Posted on August 4, 2012 at 9:44amTypical hypocrisy of the left: Accuse the right of doing what the left has been doing all along and doing blatantly, i.e. “robbing them blind”. The left and their robinhood mentality of stealing from the rich (stealing from anyone who can be forced to pay their exhorbitant taxes, for example: the new Obamacare obscenity and the ongoing battle to let the Bush tax cuts lapse, etc..) and forking it over to the poor although the “poor” anymore is anyone of whom they can buy their vote. But then these “poor” get what’s left after the left continues to rob the federal reserve to fill the pockets of their crooks and cronies (i.e. anything “green”, anyone who can be bought, anything that fits their ideologist agenda, payoffs to contributors and bundlers, etc etc etc).
It’s demented and evil and warped. To avoid continued talk of how warped they really are..they should have just eaten the cake and shut up.
