Like any proud American, I too, realize that we as a nation have a moral responsibility to stop doing things that are wasteful that run contrary to the principles that we are taught in not throwing good money after bad.
Now lets see if I have this right, it was our president who lamented to the nation in his state of the union address to do some belt tighten by all of us as citizens to overcome the deficit.
I don’t claim to be the brightest light bulb in the box, but even this back woods, hayseed “Georgia hick” knows a hypocrite when I see one.
Lets look at some “belt tighten” by President Obama and his “for the first time, I’m proud of my country”, wife.
Recently, in separate vacations, President Obama went to Florida as reported by NBC to pretend that he was on a Pro Golf Association (PGA) tour and played with pro golfer Tiger Woods for the sum of $74,000.00 a week, and the first lady took 40 of her best friends to Colorado on Air Force #2 staying at a lavish five star hotel and restaurants for a week in the sum total for both, over a million dollars and incidentally, you, the tax payer paid for this little jaunt.
On money being sent to foreign aid, we, the taxpayer duty fully pay out 1.3 billion in arms to a country, Egypt, that burns our embassy, assails the elimination of the Jewish race and us too.
“Belt tighten” as you, Mr. Obama implicitly lecture the nation on?
Could it be to do as I say and not do as I do?
Come on President Obama, it’s time to put your BIG BOY pants on and grow up and join the rest of the working class, even some of your voting block are on to you now, but hey, all is not lost, you still have the main stream media who is your lap dog.
But time will tell on that as well.
That’s my opinion,
