Why should the widows and orphans of 9-11 get free tickets to the Olympics? Didn’t they already get sizable settlements from the government? What’s wrong with them paying for their own tickets, since they have the money? Why should we have more sympathy for these people than for the thousands of other victims of violent crime who get nothing from the government?
It made sense to give the tickets to the Utah politicians. The games were in UTAH, for crying out loud, not NYC.
Oh, really? Whats wrong with those politicians paying for their own tickets, since they have the money?
Look, if Romney wanted to pay for these politicians' tickets out of his own personal funds, then I have no problem with that. But those "free" tickets were paid by someone, and guess who that was -- we taxpayers!
