December 1, 2011 11:19am 331 Comments Obama: My kids will succeed, even if USA doesn't byJoel Gehrke Commentary Staff Writer Follow on Twitter:Follow @jsgehrkejr President Obama believes that Republican leadership of the country would ruin the United States as a land of opportunity, but he's (justifiably) confident that his daughters will have plenty of opportunities, no matter what.
"Our kids are going to be fine," Obama told supporters at a campaign event last night. "And I always tell Malia and Sasha, look, you guys, I don't worry about you . . . theyre on a path that is going to be successful, even if the country as a whole is not successful. But thats not our vision of America. I don't want an America where my kids are living behind walls and gates, and cant feel a part of a country that is giving everybody a shot."
It is good to be the president.
I don’t like our choices, either. But I’m sure I’ll vote for the R because no matter what their flaws are, and they all have some, we have to get rid of Barry and stop the damage he’s doing.
“is this satire?”
No.
Unless you’re referring to the live-action comedy our country has become.
That's because the POS knows he can rake in lots of money from his mindless followers. His kids will never want for money.
No surprise here. He disses America and in turn Americans on a weekly basis.
I can’t stand this bunch of race baiting, wealth baiting, hate America baiting hypocrites. I just wish we had a better challenger to run against this scum...
Oh we will. It’s going to be a thing of beauty.
A more profound and telling statement of entitlement is hard to imagine. We have to change the course of this nation, or we will become the class-ridden, conflict-ridden, static societies our forefathers fled.
His wife take 4 40 Million dollar vacations a year.
Wonder if they are getting money deposited in some account as a kickback.
He is best friends with George Soros who knows how to hide money worldwide.
But your vision of America is warped, sick, cancerous, decrepit. Your vision of America is anti-Constitutional, indeed anti-American at its core. Your vision of America is European socialist which is dying under its own weight. Your vision of America is opportune for elites such as yourself and your kin, but it is not opportune for the rest of us. OUR VISION OF AMERICA was/IS opportune even for scumbags such as YOURSELF as it is for the rest of us and our kin. You are sick and contagious w/ your cancerous vision for America and in less than a years time we'll extract this cancer to save the country.
Coming from somebody who sends his daughters to the DC public school system every day...oh wait!!!!
I don’t know what path they are on, but I suspect that they will turn out to be tabloid material because of their parents.
As for “successful”, neither one is ever likely to do anything truly significant - start a business that becomes successful, invent or discover something important, or even become a highly competent professional.
Depending on how success is defined, yes they will. A few years of out of office income your family will be supported by your riches longer than the Kennedys. Which is probably why you have no expectations of your kids thriving on their own efforts. An American thing, alien. Sad, though I suppose I’d have been willing to come from a Kennedylike family. Nothing wrong with money, only with viewing it as an end in living a successful life.
But that's not our vision of America. I don't want an America where my kids are living behind walls and gates, and can't feel a part of a country that is giving everybody a shot...."Instead, I want an America where all my enemies are living out the rest of their lives behind walls and gates -- of the gulags."
