Keeping what you earned is not a subsidy; i.e. it isn't "Obama money."

You don't use search engines? Dude, I don't believe that for a minute.

I do but I always consider the source.

So if you don't approve of the source then it didn't actually happen? The only reality is yours? Nice.

I never said that. But in this case I absolutely doubt that the story is true.

You never learn.

People line up for pre-paid debit cards that don't work

Even The Goracle's Current website reported it on their page.

Wait a minute, someone sets up a scam and you think it's Obama's fault? That's a reach LOL.

You have a weird sense of humor Speech.

Who should pay for the bridges that are no longer as safe?

I'll be more than happy to allow you to note where I said the scam was "Obama's fault." But you can't, all you have are red herrings.

What, you don't think it's the least bit funny, sad or telling that some idiots not once, but twice lined up for some "Obama money?"

Now that was a question out of left field. I haven't got the foggiest idea what the relevance of that question is to what I've said, but if you must know if the Democrats would stop wasting our tax dollars on speculating in the green energy market, high speed rails and spa tubs in fancy hotels that the 99 percent could never enjoy, we might be able to fix our bridges and potholes.

And this has to do with oil prices, or the president how?

Or we could eliminate corporate welfare, and loopholes to oil companies that are making profits at a record pace.

We could use his favorite expression: "red herring". Just like the propensity to show a half-naked man in a bathtub.

That photo is of a top level official from the "Obama GSA " having a great time on the taxpayer's dime. I believe the last word we heard from him is "I plea the 5th amendment" .

Because he's in a hotel room? Have you never travelled on business? I have. Lots, as a civil servant. Stayed in some nice places too because they were the only convenient hotels in the city centre I was at. It's jealous and petty to be outraged at that. Obviously that administration is doing quite well if you have to stoop that low to find fault.

No ,in fact it is well documented that the GSA did a whole lot of partying on the taxpayer's dime. That is why he is invoking his 5th amendment protections in testimony.

I take it from your response that you are OK with such abuses ?

Follow the posts, Tal, had to do the subject of subsidies which was raised by someone else.

I'm not exactly sure me pointing out how government waste could be better used to fix the bridges Tal referred to is a red herring, but I'm sure you'll think of something irrelevant to say.

By the way, this is receiving bipartisan criticism. Do you not follow anything outside of your reality?

Bipartisan anger burns over officials’ parties, trips

Wait for it, The Durango Herald is bound to be an unapproved news source.

Hello again, Steve:

Nobody like their government to waste their money. But, to blame Obama for it STRETCHES reality.
