Remember Velma Hart? In case you don’t this will bring it back:

“I’ve been told that I voted for a man who said he’s going to change things in a meaningful way for the middle class,” Hart said during the meeting, broadcast on CNBC. “I’m one of those people, and I’m waiting, sir. I’m waiting. I don’t feel it yet.” Hart said her family feels their middle-class lifestyle sliding away as they sink back toward the “hot dogs and beans” era of her life. “I’m exhausted of defending you, defending your administration, defending the mantle of change that I voted for, and deeply disappointed with where we are right now,” Hart said. Hart is the chief financial officer of AMVETS, a veterans’ organization, and her husband is a facilities administrator at the Verizon Center in Washington. They have two kids in private school. Obama responded that times are tough for everyone, and that he understood Hart’s frustration. He called her the “bedrock of America,” saying, “The life you describe–one of responsibility, looking after your family, contributing back to your community–that’s what we want to reward.” But Hart said Obama didn’t answer her most troubling question: whether this economy is “the new reality.”

Velma Hart like Cornell West asked the emperor “where are your clothes?”   Hart  reluctantly pointed out Obama’s short comings and with a lot more respect than I would have allotted him asked,  “is this the new realityl?”  Obama being the double talking double talker that Rev. Wright peg him for danced around  her question, never giving an answer.

I heard Velma lost her job? Anyone know what happen???

After watching Ed Shultz  last night and seeing  Dr. Cornel West marginalized by the two Obama apologist  (Schultz and  Melissa Harris-whats-her-face)  I realized that the mighty corporate media machine seeks to reduce us all to the role of mere  mediocre  spectators:  the little people.
