    ^If your that … ^If your that dramatic to my comment, I see how you were able to take Obama’s so far out of context. He compared Vegas/Superbowl/corp jets all as luxury’s and inappropriate spending for companies being bailed out. I think most reasonable people wouldn’t have a problem with that statement. The only immorality behind the trip is if the tax payer is paying for it. That quote was a month after his inauguration. It doesn’t take a blind apologist to see that the decline was already there.

  3. seanseanseanseansean says:

    Obama wasn’t … Obama wasn’t comparing Vegas with the Super Bowl, you completely blind Obama apologist! He was holding up Vegas as an example of wasteful and distasteful travel destinations. He was trying to make a trip to Vegas socially unacceptable, something immoral to be scorned by all! He *is* responsible for decline!

  4. Cameronx says:

    I just looked up … I just looked up the ‘dis’. You are not going to be able to give out these big bonuses until you pay taxpayers back. You can’t get corporate jets. You can’t go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayers’ dime.” I find it funny that a comparison between Vegas and the Super Bowl is a dis.

  5. seanseanseanseansean says:

    You forgot to point … You forgot to point out that Obama publicly put down the city. That led to even worse decline.

    Women = time * money
    Time = Money
    Women = Money * Money
    Money = root of all evil
    Women = (root of all evil)*(root of all evil)
    and we simplify
    Women = Evil
    Women are evil :D
