i believe most of america is screaming...
I happen to know a few people who LOVE LOVE Obama. They keep telling me the country is in the best shape ever and the stock market is at it's highest ever.....hard to believe they are so brainwashed to still Love Obama. Liberals!!!!
Who has and, in my opinion, is squandering all that money for a piece of art?
Good for them for being successful but come on.
It's their money and they can do what they want with it but I just find it a little ...insulting, for lack of a better word, that someone would waste, again my opinion, that much money with no real benefit to anything or anybody other than their personal vulgar display of wealth.
I mean, it would take the government a whole hour to spend $120 million dollars. Or go further into debt I should say.
1249, sadly, I have to agree with you. You bring our government's waste of money to a new light!
