He and Mooch have already hit the lottery. Why bother?
Hemmer on FoxNews said that the jackpot may reach $600 million due to the frenzy buying today. They showed video of long lines of customers in several locations.
I bought 2 numbers at the local convenience store last evening. I was the only one in the store, except for the clerk. They may get busier today.
I would have asked Carney how fast the administration spends $600 million.
The correct answer would have been less than two hours. Seriously.
What a great idea it would be to let excess food stamps be used to buy lottery tickets.
Seriously.
The money goes straight to the state, and if someone wins despite the long, long, odds against them they’re off the program!
And it would be very popular with the welfare class.
All be great fun except for one fact:
Of the dollars spent, millions and millions will be welfare dollars that WE paid for.
Of course that won’t stop a round of demand for welfare increases because, “we wouldn’t want little kids to go hungry.”
First smart thing he has done in his life. The lottery is an idiot tax. You would have better luck buying $1 of a sub penny stock and hoping for the best (heck, you would have better odds buying a coke with it and hoping you pee gold).
Obama has no reason to buy a lottery ticket when he will now travel the world on the taxpayers tab for the rest of his life while he works to deconstruct the nation that supports him.
Odds are 760,000,000 to 1.
Ya got a better chance of being hit by lightning!
Understandable. This is small change compared to the Global Warming fraud and other deals like Solyndra.
Seriously? The president getting a lottery ticket? I am not a player and if I were able to get a ticket, I wouldn’t play one that has captured the attention of the national media. I’d rather have the 10-20 million dollar payout. It’s still enough money to change my life, but with minimal publicity. I’d still run into the bottom feeders, scam artists and long lost relatives, but my picture, etc. would probably be restricted to the local paper.
Shouldn’t he be forced to buy one, to increase the size of the gambling pool, and raise the jackpot for everyone else?
I bought for the first time in 2 years. Somebody’s got to win. Maybe it’ll be me. Maybe pigs will fly too.
I’m buying one from about 10 different stores.
If I win(Shea ... and monkeys will come flying out of my butt) I’ll end the misery for several relatives and friends.
I’ll start throwing bars of soap away when the letters come off and from now on the house will be 65° year round.
If the boss don’t like it I’ll buy her a home about 20 zip codes away. LOL
States have muscled themselves into the number racket. When are they going to take over the prostitution business?
He likes giving large amounts of OUR money to large campaign contributors for speculative ‘green’ energy - that they then fritter away in a haphazard manner to all their friends and associates - while consuming more energy than ever will be produced by their products.
A half billion here, a half billion there - but who is counting all the money we lost?
Time to “Double Down”!
And the question was asked by whom?
Why the rush by everyone to become an evil rich person? I don’t get it...everyone hates the rich yet they spend money for a chance to become rich.
It’s for US citizens only.
Zero can’t win when his numbers are 0 0 0 0 0 PB 0
