Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman had the best response whan asked how he would respond to a visit by obama,
“I’ll do everything I can to give him the boot,” Goodman said. “This president is a real slow learner.”

Why should we save for college at all? Didn’t he tell us in his State of the Union that if we borrowed for college we would only have to pay 10 years of payments equal to 10 percent of our annual income if we went to work for the government?

I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but I agree.
I don’t disagree with the fact that broke people shouldn’t piss money away in vegas or buy boats.
But, we are free to do with our money, or lack thereof.

The President is only stating common sense. So it really doesn't need to be said. And those Vegasites that whine about “oh, the president hurt our business”, gimme a break. I'm sure folks were all set to go to Vegas then thought: “Well, the president said we shouldn't go so we shouldn't”.
You base your existence on tourism, then prepare to suffer the consequences when times are tough. It's a fact of life.

He will never get it! We would all rather take our chances in Vegas than send our hard-earned money to him. At least we would have a chance of seeing some of it again.

So what about those of us who aren’t “broke”, but would rather do what we wish with money WE have earned, rather than have it confiscated by the government?

Perhaps Obozo should lead by example then?

I was making the simple point that families use vacation dollars, not college tuition money when they go to Vegas.... What are vacation dollars?
