What do you say that we have a little fun with Moochelle and her ability to take vacations while she doesn't even have a job.
Normally, Americans must have a job and then work at that job for an extended amount of time before they are eligible to take a vacation.
Normally, Americans must pay for their own vacation and any expense associated with the trip including air fare, travel, hotels and food plus any entertainment.
But these are not normal times. We are being asked by the elite politicians, including Moochelle's husband, to tighten our belt and try to ride this recession out. Hoping also that we do not double dip.
We are also being asked to disregard any extravagant trips and vacations taken by the elite and say nothing nor do anything about their jet setting around the globe on our dime.
Moochelle has spent an estimated 10 million dollars through August on vacations for herself independent of BO. When do we say STOP. When do we call our Representative and say "If you wish to get your favor-ability rating over 10% then get your lazy butt to work and put a stop to this madness".
If she would just stay tucked away in the White House every American (309,000,000) could have saved .32 cents. That is not a lot when you break it down that way but have you ever thought about how many times this goes on across the board. After all, If everyone pitched in 32 cents for my vacations I could have a real blow out vacation of all vacations. I could retire on the vacation. But how can I have a vacation when I don't have a job?
I have concluded that I must pick up her new book "Vacations for Dummies" and figure out how I can get 10 million for vacations without even being employed.
Bo said it best when he said "You can't beat the fringe benefits" YES, WE ARE THE DUMMIES!

How's that Gun Control working for you?
Today, I was reading the August issue of American Rifleman and came across an article on page 88 from their March 1969 issue.
Intelligent people, which might include a couple inside the D.C. Beltway and a few Elites, can read history and learn something from it. So, lets see what we can learn about strict government gun control.
To make it more interesting let us do it in a form of a test. The answers are at the bottom after more of my commentary and history lesson.
REMEMBER THIS IS FROM MARCH 1969
1. This country's gun laws were almost perfect for anti-gun enthusiasts. The mere possession of an illegal firearm could send the violator to prison for life, without appeal. This country had the whole oppressive might of the world's largest police state.
A. Canada
B. Soviet Union
C. United States
D. Mexico
2. This country's gun control was administered by the Army. Private firearms were subject to registration. In 1969 the head of this country's hunting federation requested to have 7 guns registered. He was told that the Army had a 4 gun limit. After he objected he was told he could not have any guns.
A. Mexico
B. United States
C. Soviet Union
D. Turkey
3. After reviewing the homicide rates per 100,000 of population below, Select the country that the rate represents.
1965----13.6 per 100,000
2009----14 per 100,000
A. Turkey
B. Soviet Union ( No, they weren't around in 2009)That didn't work out well.
C. United States
D. Mexico
Surprisingly the gun control laws in the U.S. have gained strength over this time period thanks to hardworking people dedicated to retain our 2nd amendment rights.
So how has history taught us anything? Consider this:
Homicide rate per 100,000
Mexico United States
1965 13.6 5.14
2009 14 4.96
If it ain't broke don't fix it. What is broken, and history bears that out, is strict gun control laws. The phrase " if guns are outlawed only criminals will have guns" is used about as often as "kicking the can down the road". The sad fact is, both are correct.
