Everyone Must Sacrifice, Except the Obama’s … First lady Michelle Obama Enjoys a Ski Weekend in Vail

THE SACRIFICE FROM THE OBAMA’S …

Remember when President Barack Obama told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos everyone must sacrifice? It was 2009 and Obama just signed the worthless $787 billion stimulus plan that was supposed to fund “shovel ready” jobs. Only to later admit there were no such thing shovel ready projects.

It would appear the first lady Michelle is doing her part of sacrifice … she is in Vail, CO this weekend. Keep up the sacrifice Michelle and all that you do. Maybe she will tell the folks at Vail what to properly eat? Who knew that skin in the game meant that bruised or chaffed while on a ski weekend?

First lady Michelle Obama is among the Presidents Day weekend crowd.

Obama arrived Friday night for a weekend of skiing in Vail and Beaver Creek, according to local sources.

“Everyone must sacrifice for the greater good… Everyone must have some skin in the game.”
 

Remember when Obama said the following, from the White House Presser, Feb 15, 2011.So what vacations are the Obama’s sacrificing, skipping going out to dinners or putting off saving for their children’s education like ”We the People”? The Obama’s have no idea what people are going through, nor do they even seem to care to try to by setting an example.

Just like every family in America, the federal government has to do two things at once. It has to live within its means while still investing in the future. If you’re a family trying to cut back, you might skip going out to dinner, you might put off a vacation. But you wouldn’t want to sacrifice saving for your kids’ college education or making key repairs in your house. So you cut back on what you can’t afford to focus on what you can’t do without.     

UPDATE I:More White House sacrifice, VP Joe Biden style … Joe Biden and wife spending holiday weekend in Florida Keys.

Joan Rivers Reveals She Ditched a Joke from Stand Up Routine Calling First Lady Michelle Obama … “Blackie O”

File this one under, Joan Rivers might have wanted to have kept this one quiet …

In an interview with Howard Stern, comedian Joan Rivers revealed that she wanted to do a joke about first lady Michelle Obama; however, she backed off because she did nit want to be perceived as being a racist. She was going to refer to Michelle Obama as “Blackie – O” in comparison to Jackie O and the former first lady’s sense of style and fashion.

YIKES, the audio can be hear at Radar On Line. Stern asked Joan Rivers if having to hold back on such a joke was one of the things wrong with this country. Rivers responded, “yes”. One really has to wonder the fear of being called a racists if someone like Joan Rivers who has never been afraid of pushing the envelop would have kept quiet. Rivers has never silenced herself, even when she made fun of herself.

One has to wonder why if Joan Rivers dicthed the joke in fear of being labeled a racists, why she would even want to discuss it for still being called a racist. Just a note to Joan Rivers, she was correct, she would have not only been called a racist, she would have been labeled a member of the Tea Party.

One side note to Joan Rivers, sorry, but when it comes to style and fashion … Michelle Obama does not even begin to hold a candle to to former first lady and dearly deaparted Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

Barack Obama Attends Church in DC this Sunday … Churchgoers on Obama’s Attendance, “We’ve Been Waiting Two Years For This”

Hell just froze over … President Barack Obama attends church.

As reported at the Washington Post, one church goer stated “We have been waiting to see this for two years.” Maybe Barack Obama does not attend church on a regular basis because he misses the good old days of Rev. Jeremiah Wright and his inspiring sermons on love, togetherness and peaceful discourse. As the Gateway Pundit states, Obama has not been able to find a pastor who can match his former mentor’s spirit and insight.

Metroplian AME was filled with people who are waiting to see the Obama family.

“We have been waiting to see this for two years,” said one church member as he passed through a line of metal detectors.

President Obama and the first family will join D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray to worship at the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church in Northwest during a service that will reflect on the spiritual fervor of Martin Luther King Jr.

Last year the president delivered a major address the Sunday before Martin Luther King Jr. Day at the Districts Vermont Avenue Baptist Church where King spoke when he was alive.

Reverend Wright, he is a wonderful man … so says Barack Obama

One of the church members above stated, “we have been waiting to see this for two years.”  Funny, the unemployed in America have been saying the same thing about getting a job under this president.

An Open Letter to Parents from Michelle Obama Following the Tragedy in Tucson Targeting Tolerance

First Lady exploits Tucson tragedy to target McDonald’s Happy Meals, tolerance.

First lady Michelle Obama took the opportunity to send an open letter to parents in the aftermath of the Tucson, AZ shooting “targeting” how we deal with one another and tolerance. Huh? Let us rephrase that, Michelle Obama exploits the Arizona massacre. As stated by the Gateway Pundit, Jared Loughner, a deranged mental case, who was booted out of his college for his bizarre behavior, goes on a shooting spree in an attempt to assassinate US Rep. Gabby Giffords (AZ-D) after years of fixating on her a Michelle Obama want to teach children about tolerance? Didn’t her own husband, President Barack Obama, state at the Tucson Memorial/Pep Rally that the shootings had nothing to do with the political discourse in the country? Yes, he did.

In the days and weeks ahead, as we struggle with these issues ourselves, many of us will find that our children are struggling with them as well.  The questions my daughters have asked are the same ones that many of your children will have – and they don’t lend themselves to easy answers.  But they will provide an opportunity for us as parents to teach some valuable lessons – about the character of our country, about the values we hold dear, and about finding hope at a time when it seems far away.

We can teach our children that here in America, we embrace each other, and support each other, in times of crisis.  And we can help them do that in their own small way – whether it’s by sending a letter, or saying a prayer, or just keeping the victims and their families in their thoughts.

We can teach them the value of tolerance – the practice of assuming the best, rather than the worst, about those around us.  We can teach them to give others the benefit of the doubt, particularly those with whom they disagree.

What on earth does what happened in Tucson, AZ have to do with tolerance? Maybe you would like to tell children that there are some mentally disturbed people in this country and there is sometimes no explanation why they do, what they do. That some people need to be committed for their bizarre behavior is all others around them feel threatened. Gee, why didn’t the first lady also take the opportunity to tell children to stop going to McDonald’s and getting Happy Meals while she was at it?

More Lack of Presidential Sacrifice: Barack Obama Takes 20 Man, 10 Car Motorcade to visit childhood friend in Hawaii

Sacrifice?

President Barack Obama once again shows Americans what it means to sacrifice, NOT!  How is any one supposed to follow this president when he does not sacrifice himself? If one cannot lead by example, they cannot lead.

I wonder what the little people are doing

Once again Barack Obama shows a lack of leadership and failure to set an example for the American people. The do as I say, not as I do president thought it perfectly ok to spend “The People’s money” and have a 10 vehicle, 20 man motorcade, across highways cleared of traffic to reach his childhood friend Bobby Titcomb’sbeachfront house. What? Who does this? How does a president in the midst of a terrible economy who tells others to sacrifice continue to fail to set an example and just tell the people to “eat cake”.  Then again, who spends $1.4 million on a vacation in a recession? Obama learned so much from last year. Face it America, he just does not care.

Obama tells Stephanopoulos everyone must sacrifice … “everyone is going to have to sacrifice and have skin in the game” 

Far be it from this president to sacrifice and think about not spending the tax payers money and just have invited his friend to where Obama was staying. Because that would just make too much sense. If that occurred Obama could not inconvenience every one with his motorcade and waste tax payers dollars, After all, he’s not spending his money.

President Obama provoked fresh outrage today after taking a 20-man motorcade to visit a childhood friend during his lavish Christmas holiday in Hawaii.
