President Obama's Normandy trip, 'Obama beach,' and Sarkozy snub?

'I would love nothing more than to have a leisurely week in Paris, stroll down the Seine, take my wife out to a nice meal, have a picnic. ... Those days are over, for the moment.' - Come January of 2013 you will have plenty of time once you're out of office my friend.

I doubt very seriously that President Obama's ego is that fragile.

If, however, he did snub Sarko, I imagine it was purely political– to get Sarko to keep his big mouth shut.

(Nothing personal, of course.)

Obama is going to be a one term president. You are only kidding yourself if you think the majority of Americans are going to tolerate $4 trillion in deficit spending, over 10% unemployment (which he said would never get over 9%) (ok so he lied) and with huge inflation looming big just over the horizon. HAHA He is going to be just like Jimmy Carter. Just another has been president who made the economy even worse than when he got it. He said he did not want to run an auto company but now he is. (ok so he lied again) Now he wants to bail out all those dead beat students who took out college loans and decided not to pay them back. I had to pay back my college loan why shouldn't they?

Demecrats are all about spending money that is not theirs. Ask them why they don't pay for all this themselves and they stammer, ho hum, then call you a racist. A typical tactic when you can't argue facts.

Hey Hayden...maybe if Obama screws up worse than Bush he might not be re-elected which is a long shot. However since the Republican party has been so self fracturing it would not be able to take advantage of said new record setting level of incompetence so I'm afraid it'll never happen. You must live in a happy place.

Parading in NYC and Paris for a nice stroll and dinner are bad choices even for a totus in these hard economic times. Do your business and go home - the White House is not a bad place to be. When things get better, then slowly spend on luxury, out of your own pocket.
