"You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college."

[screaminsunshine]

How about the struggling boating industry?

[knittnmom]

Well, he’s right. Wish he’d quit buying boats and blowing wads on his Vegas (Stimulus) with our money.

[CSM]

Dear Mr. President,

You don’t go funding ACORN when you can’t pay your debts.

[NowApproachingMidnight]

What an A** Clown!
Thank you, sir!

[Question Liberal Authority]

You could load Scott Brown’s pickup truck with $500 casino chips and still not blow as much money as Obama’s federal budget.

[240B]

This chucklehead, man, hahalol, he’s just making friends all over the place. LOL ;^>

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

A total BUTT WART!
That’ll help reid a whole bunch!

[Above My Pay Grade]

In fairness, I wouldn’t say he was bashing Vegas, by saying a struggling family shouldn’t blow a bunch of cash there. That is simply common sense.

The real issue is hypocrisy. He is 100% correct that the huge deficits not only threaten our childrens’ future, but the economy, right now. That being the case, why is he proposing a budget with “unprecedented” spending and deficits? He is doing exactly what he says responsible families don’t do.

He might as well get up there and say, “Drugs are bad, they are dangerous and can kill you. Responsible people don’t do drugs!”, then pull out a crack pipe and a heroin needle and take a hit and shoot up, right in front of the crowd.

In a free society, you do what you wish, as long as it’s lawful - soooooooo let’s pass a law limiting what one can and can’t do (or what Zero doesn’t want us to do...)

Socialism? Fascism ? You tell me...

""You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college." "

Ya know, I'm getting a little tired of this clown lecturing the rest of us on HOW TO SPEND MONEY. He's like a drunk telling us about the evils of alcohol.

He and michelle-mahbell didn't have a pot to piss in a few years ago, and had to pull in "favors" to get a house bought for them...and now he's trying to be our financial advisor.

Maybe some of those folk are in Vegas to try and recoup some of the 401K money obama's policies have cost us...some folks are up against the wall financially, and have nothing left to lose by at least trying to win some money.

Their quest for money is just following obama mantra of "HOPE"...because all they've got left, is "CHANGE".

He can put his lectures where the sun don't shine.

[BIOCHEMKY]

Thank you Mr. Obama for again criticising spending money in Las Vegas in the great state of Nevada.

Voters in Nevada would lie to repay you for the negative effects you have had on their tourism industry during a deep recession.

So...here’s what they have come up with...

Come November, goodbye Senate Majority Leader Harry Mason Reid (D-NV) and good riddance!

Whadda ya think, Zero?

Does THAT meet with your approval?

[PORD]

Mr. Obumble, What about Pelosi’s extravagant forays with taxpayer’s money do you not understand?

[mkjessup]

"You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college"

Translation = "Harry Reid? You're expendable pal."

What an effin' asshat 0bama is, but we knew that didn't we?

Except for John McStain, who told us "we have nothing to fear" from an 0bama Administration, how's that workin' out for ya Johnny Mac?

Ya putz.

[NEMDF]

You don't go flying off to Indonesia to rediscover your roots. You don't fly fake Air Force One planes over the Hudson river.... you don't pay for Nancy Pelosi to take every long-lost relative and 3 planes to Copenhagen. You don't spend $800 million on having a terrorist trial in NYC that could be held in Guantanamo for barely any expense. I am sure there are hundreds of these examples.

I thought this guy was supposed to be a good lawyer. One of the first rules of public speaking is avoid analogies, they can easily be turned against you. Unless you have really, really thought it through and can see no way it can rebound and even then it's best just to avoid them.

I'd really like to see this putz's college transcripts.

[texmexis best]

Is Obama working for Karl Rove?

Hairy Reid is probably not too kenn on this line of argument.

what a putz.

[just me]

Like most Democrats, do as I say, not as I do...

“You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college.” Obama said that.

“You don't quadruple your debt by spending money on nonproductive programs, stifle business activity with higher taxes and new regulations, and give away money to dictators, when you are already in the middle of a recession.” I said that.
