Here’s the latest example of why we love the “Wheel of Fortune” host: No Wallenda for me tonite, but enjoying other high wire act: Dems who support POTUS pretending they don't know him. — Pat Sajak (@patsajak) November 2, 2014 Perfect.

Amanda Carpenter, others disgusted by Obama’s latest threat to bypass Congress

General

http://twitter.com/#!/Thelmavrh/status/423128745570889729 As Twitchy reported, President Obama has predicted that this year will be “a year of action in which to maximize the economic recovery.” http://twitter.com/#!/JimAcostaCNN/status/423129541867884544 But all that recovering won’t be easy. He may have to take some extra action. You know, take matters into his own hands.

Arts & Entertainment

http://twitter.com/#!/markknoller/status/406852639658217472 CBS News correspondent Mark Knoller took to Twitter to report on President Obama’s Small Business Saturday shopping trip. http://twitter.com/#!/markknoller/status/406854107891503104 http://twitter.com/#!/markknoller/status/406856112130899968 Obama picked up over a dozen books, but Knoller noticed something glaringly absent from the list provided by the White House. http://twitter.com/#!/markknoller/status/406857550416445440 Funny ’cause it’s oh-so-true! Obama can always borrow “Web Sites for Dummies” from his pal Kathleen Sebelius, but he’s got other books to get to first. http://twitter.com/#!/SamLitzinger/status/406860587054804992 Read more: http://twitchy.com/2013/11/30/oh-snap-cbs-news-mark-knoller-zings-obamas-book-purchases/
