That’s exactly why liberals and their “tax the rich” argument can go to hell. Tax the rich for what? So schmucks like this guy can blow through $1.4 billion instead of that money being used to invest in companies to create JOBS? Can you imagine how many jobs that money could create? What kind of company could be created with that kind of money invested?

I saw that movie Lincoln the other night with my Dad, very good movie if you haven’t seen it yet. What struck me about it was how Lincoln although he was President lived as just another ordinary citizen. He would hang out in the telegraph office like any other employee, or go for walks by himself or ride in a carriage with his wife and nobody else. None of this royalty BS. No closing down 300 city blocks with a 500 people entourage so he can party with Jay-Z, no mega-concerts celebrating how great he is. To me what seems to have happened is todays politicians have taken advantage of the threat of assassination, used it as an excuse to blow through wads of money and to me this Obama is the worst out of all of them.

Back in the day a politician did his term then went back to being an ordinary citizen. Now most are self serving.

Agree 100%. It really is disturbing how much money they’re spending on frivolous stuff for themselves and this is just what we know about.
