Obama is already spending (blowing) our tax dollars!
Inauguration price tag: $150 million
It is going be some party. When Barack Obama comes to Washington to be sworn into office, the entire nation will be watching – and paying for – the celebration.
Why not just a simple swearing in on the White House steps and coverage by the press?
Why is our new President allowing over $150 million dollars to be spent on a party when our country is almost bankrupt?
He should have been the first President to set an example and not allowed this kind of tax payer money on a party. And everyone complains about all the other corrupt companies getting bail out money and throwing lavish parties. It all starts with the leader of the country. Once that person sets an example others will follow. There goes $150 million tax dollars of yours and mine. Thank you so much for caring about our tax dollars Mr. Obama, you have shown me that you are just like all the others.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
But…I guess one way to boost an economy is to increase spending–because that’s what makes money go ’round right??
Hey Randy–I’m sorry I haven’t replied to your message yet.
I did read it though and will respond soon!
It breaks my heart.
Like a heard a conservative commentator say today on the radio: “Its just like a wedding! It doesn’t matter if you spend millions or just go to the Justice of the Peace. You still end up married both ways.”
Especially with our economy the way it is, you would think that he would have the decency to try to be practical. But nope… and surprise, surprise, to those who think they are getting those tax cuts he promised. This is only just the beginning…
It is so heartbreaking to me to even think of what will take place tomorrow, I don’t think I have the gumption to watch. *tear* All I can say is that we must be on our knees begging God to have mercy on our nation.
If Washington, Adams and Jefferson could see us now…
