if he doesn't ween the pols off their mother's teet, a little at a time they'll chew him to pieces! of course he can't change everything overnight. but that is what's expected of him. it's gonna take a long time to fix what's wrong with this country, and it may not be finished during his tenure. let's just hope he can get us started.

Coming from the man who spent "how much money?" on his trip to Chicago to lobby for the Olympics. If he wants people to cut back on spending he needs to lead a better example.

he's a pol. but, if he has any integrety (spelling) because i'm just bein' lazy, he can't be expected to get this for us, NOW. no one likes us, and it's not his fault. myself, i'm a chicago fan, but would i wanna go there, or RIO? duh!
who wants to come to the US? or,...worse yet, chicago?
am i wrong?

Hey, I didn't want the Olympics to be back here in the states yet. I was just mentioning that he spent a helluva lot of money for that little trip to Chicago. He is spending money like it's plentiful but he asks for everyone else to cut back. I'm just saying he needs to lead by example. Not "Do as I say, not as I do"

Money is very plentiful when its just printed and handed out.

you're absolutely right, AND you said somethin' my Pop always used to say, Don't Do As I Do, Do As I Say, I know it's different, a little bit, but he was against the same thing. Leadership by example is so much more motivatin'
