Barack Obama drove a car that was “rusted out" and found his furniture in a dumpster

He's about to find a chair or two in a dumpster come November.

Let’s see...

10 million on non-stop vacations, a 32 million dollar estate in Kailua waiting, golf and more golf, lavish weekly parties at the White House...

If this is payback for just scraping by, just where can I sign up?

It’s been my understanding that people who TRULY come from humble backgrounds, keep a modest lifestyle the remainder of their life. Sam Walton, one of the richest men in the USA (Walmart) - drove a beat up truck, and lived in a nice, but modest home. It’s a fundamental part of who they are, they know their roots - and feel uncomfortable in lavish homes and servants.

Obama doesn’t think twice about taking his private 747 on a vacation, so he can meet up with his wife who took her private jet out a few hours previously. They flew separately out to gather his Nobel Peace Prize (for doing nothing, on the pretext he would do ‘something’). And that is just typical behavior for the Obama’s.

They seem to enjoy lavish living, flaunting designer wardrobes to do menial tasks, like shopping at Target, working in a “Garden”, or other things like the “little people”. There is nothing humble about them, that would suggest that any portion of her story has a shred of truth.

Butterflies, blue skies, green leaves on the trees, soft breeze, rosebud petals under your feet.....ladeeda-da.

All feel good talk - no understanding of reality and how prosperity is created. It’s gimme gimme gimme I’m so wonderful, he’s wonderful....barf.

I love it that the DNC held their convention in a Right To Work State. Is that why they told their busloads of Obama’s army/union workers to stay home? I hope Clinton gives them a slap down with his unvetted speech.

The thing is, the rusted out car and rescued furniture probably are not lies. The impression they give is false, but the bare assertions are probably true. All they reflect is that the Obamas were once students and that their families were not so wealthy as to lavish them with sizable allowances while in college and law school. Except for the scions of actual wealth, students at top schools generally don’t have much disposable income and will drive clunkers (unless they got a car as a HS or college graduation present as is the custom in some parts of the American middle class) and scrounge used furniture.

I went to a good private liberal arts college and still have a cast iron frying pan I reclaimed from a trash-heap while a student there (the town where the college was located had a one-day-a-year clean up day when the municipal trash service would haul away anything, and the nanny-state had not yet decided that trash has an owner, so under the Lockean theory of appropriation from common, the students would trawl the trash-heaps looking for finds — students living off campus often reclaimed furniture from common as the Obamas did). I was a grad student at an Ivy League school (Penn) and would have been driving a rusted out car had not the bizarre nanny-state inspection regime in PA made me perpetually fix the holes with screen and body-putty. So?

The notion that this is indicative of hardship is a lie. These were just the normal experience of students, who generally have it pretty good but can’t afford to buy new cars or furniture.

Brit Hume said of the Dem speeches last evening that they had a “destitution derby” going on, meaning that the speakers were supposedly trying to outdo each other with tales of humble beginnings. [Source link]

He chuckled this morning on FoxNews at Obama 'dumpster diving' for furniture.

I heard a portion of Michelle's speech. She pulled [white] granny out from under the bus to tie granny's tenacity to Barak.

Barack and Michelle dated for three years before they were married. They met in 1989 at a downtown Chicago law firm where Michelle was working as an attorney. She was assigned to be an advisor to a summer associate from Harvard named Barack Obama. Barack wore a black suit with a white rose boutonniere. His best man was his half-brother, Malik Obama, who lives in Kenya. In keeping with Barack’s Kenyan roots, some of the guests, including Malik, wore traditional African dress. The couple was married by Reverend Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. in a traditional Christian ceremony. Following the vows, a reception was held at the South Shore Cultural Center, a run-down formerly all-white Country Club. The couple left on their honeymoon along the coast of California in the days that followed. ************* Doesn't seem so derelict to me.

Dear American Taxpayer,

For only the second time in my adult life, I am not ashamed of my country. I love being America’s First Lady.

I want to thank the hard working American people for paying for my many trips and vacations. I have been so busy with my food policing that I was only able to take one big trip a month. My daughter Sasha, several long-time family friends, my personal staff of 75 and various guests had a wonderful time in Spain.

Honestly, you just haven’t lived ‘til you’ve stayed in a private 3-story villa at a 5-Star luxury hotel, the Villa Padierna.

It only cost $95,000, and I was able to hold the total bill under $500,000.for the week. What a bargain!

Thank you also for the use of Air Force Two and the 70 Secret Service personnel who tagged along to be sure we were safe and cared for at all times.
Air Force Two (which costs $11,351 per hour to operate according to Government Accounting Office reports) only used 47,500 gallons of jet fuel for this trip and carbon emissions were a mere 1,031 tons of CO2.

That’s quite a carbon footprint as my good friend Al Gore would say, so we must ask the American citizens to drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars and drive less too, so we can lessen our combined carbon footprint.

But hey, Barack’s Air Force One costs about $200,000. per hour to operate and with his many trips, he spent almost half a billion dollars on flights alone last year. Yeah, that’s with a B… $500,000,000.
By the way, if you happen to be visiting the Costa del Sol,
I highly recommend the Buenaventura Plaza restaurant in Marbella; great lobster with rice and oysters!

I’m ashamed to admit the lobsters we ate in Martha’s Vineyard were not quite as tasty,
but what can you do if you’re not in Europe, you have to just grin and bear it.
I know times are hard and millions of you are struggling to put food on the table and trying to make ends meet.
So I do appreciate your sacrifices and do hope you find work soon.
I was really exhausted after Barack took our family on a luxury vacation in Maine a few weeks ago.
I just had to get away for a few days.

Cordially,
Michelle Obama

P.S. Thank you as well for the $2 BILLION dollar trip to India from which we just returned! P.SS. Thank you, too, for that vacation trip to Martha’s Vineyard - It was fabulous!
And thanks for that second smaller jet that took our dog Bo to Martha’s Vineyard so we and the children could have him with us while we were away from the White House for eleven days. P.SSS. Oh, I almost forgot to say thanks also for our two-week trip to Hawaii at Christmas.
That 7,000 square foot house was great and we could use the front door this time!

All this while Barack plays golf and campaigns to keep my trips coming for the next 4 years!

Thanks America!
But you owe it to me!
Love ya!
Remember, we all have to share the pain of these hard economic times equally!
We love to redistribute and share the wealth.

Her fairy tale--however well-delivered--was one great, big, colorful lie

Both of them have lived a life of ease and privileged. They have no idea what it means to struggle. That the media allows them to spin this fable is sickening
