the list is getting long isn't it?

Obamacare.......

Food Stamps and Unemployment check as economic stimulus...

Global Warming/Climate Change....

O would improve our image abroad....

O would cut the deficit in half......

fun to go back and read/listen to the promises and statements made that by this guy and apply them today....4 more years....


heard on the way home yesterday that the Prez has taken the incredible step of reducing his salary by 5% in a show of solidarity with furloughed workers.....you only do something like this if you truly believe that those that support you are either dazed idol worshippers or complete idiots...

I don't think the furloughed workers, for the most part, have the type of salary the O has to begin with, they're probably not enjoying multi-million dollar vacations on a routine basis at the tax payers expense, probably don't have a large expense account to go with their salary(The president also gets a cool $50,000 expense account $100,000 for travel expenses. In addition, there's $19,000 allotted for official entertaining. Although the salary is taxable, these other benefits aren't.), probably don't have all of their daily activities paid for by the taxpayer or a massive campaign warchest, their wives probably don't have a massive spending allowance and staff like the First Lady costing in the millions, don't think the Prez has a car payment or a helicopter payment or a Air Force 1 payment, electric bill, and on and on....

so lopping 5% off of his salary means exactly what again????????
