Whether or not he's on the hill. Guess he's used to having to deal with a round table discussion full of children.
That genuinely made me laugh. And true. Thank you!
These kids would do a better job than the GOP clowns on the hill. They can't get over somebody taking their candy. What a bunch of jerks. And just think, we pay them??????
Nope, those GOP folks you are talking about work for ME. I voted for them because they believe in the same things I do. We happen to believe that your pResident is the jerk!
@KLuib, you summed it up right. The Dems would steal candy from the kids and give to the lazy kids that don't want too earn it.
Why can't he be for this? Why spend our country into oblivion claiming victories over economic calamity without even a budget?
Does anyone here balance their checkbook every month before paying their bills? Well do you? How could you even remotely out of a possibility think you have things economically under control without knowing what your budget is?
Please by all means tell me that. How do you do it? Not knowing your income. Not knowing your expenses. How can you possibly even think your moving in the right direction without knowing these things? But just keep coming up with more things to blow your wallet out with without any regard for what is in your wallet? Keep coming up with more and more programs to throw money at, not knowing if you can afford them?
I sincerely don't understand why you keep attacking with disdain, anyone that asks you to seriously consider what your doing to your country? Do you really want it to die? Are you relishing it's death? Are you attempting it's demise? Are you so pissed off at your own countries sins of 200 years ago that you desire it's destruction?
What is driving you to desire an economic collapse? Don't you understand that if your government continues this path in spending, the entire thing will collapse and noone gets paid a cent and your money is worthless?
Where will your preschool and Kindergarteners be then, when there are no public schools after the collapse?
Maybe, Rodney, just maybe managing a household of 300+ million is a wee bit more complicated than managing one of four or five. And maybe, just maybe the man you revile so much - our duly elected president - isn't entirely responsible for our economic doldrums OR for guiding us out of them.
But it's sure convenient to have a scapegoat, isn't it, especially a black one. . .
I'm wondering why he had to spend millions and millions of our dollars coming to Georgia to tout his newest spending spree?
Has anybody told this idiot we are broke?????
Wonder how much the C-17 loaded with cars and a helicopter then AF1 flying in with Hisdumbness on it cost us for this little show?
He just don't get it!
Dude if ya ask me; it seems the person who doesnt get it is you, he's the president of the United States, and you are just a plumber....the headache? He's having to deal with people like you, who to be honest are full of sh*t
Great pic!! I love the expression on both faces. I would hope that our president would never lose the fact that our public education system means so much for the continuation of our society and the betterment thereof. Thanks to the photographer who captured this precious moment.
Great that our President is in touch with and cares about education and children. Great Pics!!!!
GREAT PICS!!! Thank You Mr, President for caring bout kids and education.
Great pics!
Ditto to your comment Sifu Davis. I agree.
Nice that those kids will have these memories the rest of their lives.
Regardless of agreement with the man (I don't on sooo many topics), he is still the president. The same people who cried "Treason!" when folks insulted and disparaged President GW Bush are the same who level personal insults at President Obama. Also, the same ones who made horrid and disrepectful statements about President Bush are now crying racism and such on the people who... Well, I think you get it.
Let me set this out for everyone: The Democrats are not going to halve their outrageous salary to "pay their fair share", and the Republicans won't eliminate their incomparable benefits to lower the deficit. If you think any politician is on "your" side, even the "outsiders", then you are delusional and haven't learned anything from our country's history.
Please, wake up and quit fighting each other, and realize you're all part of the biggest con ever.
Let your representatives know what you want from them, make sure they do what they say, and vote them out if they don't! If even half of the country did this, there wouldn't be octogenarians in the House or Senate. Quit blaming someone else for your own laziness.
How did this cushy piece about The Prez with the kids illicit so much bile and poison. GOP you never cease to amaze me.
