We are supposed to be broke [as a nation]....
No excuse. I would never boo any POTUS. The office carries respect regardless. He is our President.
....why is he spending the money for Secret Service, and all the other amenities [accorded to a sitting president for activities] to be at a game that he could have easily watched on 100 inch television in the WH; while in turn, SAVING ALL OF US HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS.
Obama continues to say to us, "Do as I say, NOT as I do!"
We are sequestered, shouldn't that sequester begin with the man leading our nation???
There have been cuts across the board in this country, and I think he should be setting the standard by saving money, not throwing it away on a meaningless game, just because he could be there. Maybe some of those furloughed government workers would have enjoyed being at that game too!
Instead,
he spends it like a man with no limit on how much he can spend.
Good for the
boobirds. They got it right...he deserved every boo and then some. :thumbs:
And as for your comment about him deserving the respect because of the position he holds. You must remember:
Respect is earned. When he does things right, he gets the praise and applause. So why shouldn't he get the proper response when it is warranted???
He is not God...he is no better than any other American. He puts his pants on the same as us, one leg at a time. He is merely a man, voted into the office, and if he does a poor job, he should expect to hear what others think. Maybe he'll be a little more humble, but I doubt it!
