‘WE DID BUILD IT’: SMALL BUSINESS OWNER TAUNTS OBAMA MOTORCADE

• Here's some food for thought. Why are we paying for Obama's campaign. Literally. In the open and no one cares. He is using taxpayer money, transpotation, security, goods, services etc to mount his campaign and its all on our dime. No one is paying the transportation costs ofor Romney or Ryan. Yet the President makes campaign stops everywhere and WE are paying. I know he has campaign money. Does he get to keep that, since he isn't using it? Just asking.

  • !!! Excellent point !!!

    Not to mention the fact that he is not exactly working for us when he is campaigning. Of course, he is used to this. His wife hauled in a huge paycheck for working "part-time", so it probably never even occurs to him that no other job in the world would accept this behavior.

    • Probably not, since he's never HAD a job.

    • I remember the frantic search for a qualified highly educated replacement for that indispensable position too. Didn't the whole organization (hospital?) grind to a complete standstill until that slot was refilled?

      • It was sort of like that. If I remember correctly, they cheered as she left, folded the position and never looked back. It must have been because they just KNEW that no one would ever be a bright star like MO, no one could ever fill her (huge) shoes, so they didn't even try.

• I HAVE fought fires on my own, you arrogant kenyan!

  • I've fought fires on my own, and worked shoulder to shoulder with the pros, fighting to save the canyon I lived in. These freaks always pull the "cut fire, police, schools," crap. No, we want to cut the waste.

    • It's infuriating, and so simple that it defies logic that some people can't comprehend it. When we pool our funds, the number one expense should be for those things that WE collectively use. Roads. Schools. Public services. Libraries. Courts. Even community health facilities, though that is stretching it a bit.

      Instead, the libs beeline to those things, so they can keep their larded projects - the ones that usually have so little oversight that they provide plenty of skim-ability for their cronies, who then feed it right back to them.

• n0Bama 2012. You Bet We Can!

• The Prez doesn't like ungrateful businessmen. Mr. Letizio better get ready for visits from the IRS, the EPA, OSHA and the Dept. of Labor. Sniffing around, finding problems, assessing additional taxes, imposing fines, sanctions and cease and desist orders...you pull a knife, Obama pulls a gun, it's the Chicago way.

  • EH - Seems you edited while I was writing the following, So I scratched the No at the start. If not, I miss read it the first time.

    The 'Chicago Way': go in bust the place up (literally!), kill everyone involved, blame the other side, arrest some dupe, get a confession, convict/execute or suicide him/her, start a mirror business - under proper controls - and steal as much as possible while 'The Gettin' is Good', all the while touting yourself as the 'Hero'.
    Yup, the 'Government' doing what it does best......extortion, graft and coverups!

• I hope more businesses follow the lead of this guy and the one with the sign that says Obama can kiss my ass....., all those people out there who built up a business, worked hard, gave up everything and Obama tells them "you didn't build that"...What Obama has is a presidency where we can all say.."you didn't build that Mr. Obama, you just leaned on the backs of others to do your dirty work"....

  • If I ever see a sign like that, I am going to find a reason to stop in and buy something. Unfortunately there are only 2 Chick-Fil-A's anywhere near me and the closest one is 15 heavy traffic city miles away...but if I'm ever close I'm stopping in.

• I loved one of the comments to the original story:

  Hoax and chains you can believe in.

  BTW, thanks for making logging in to IHTM so much easier.

• "Dear Leader" had better get ready for a lot more signs like this where ever he goes, wasting taxpayer dollars the whole time.

• Another example of self reliance and self motivation and in your face for barry. That statement above all else is defining of what this administration things of the small businesses in this country.
