   Maybe Barbra was stuck in yesterday’s nightmarish LA traffic jam, which, given the cause, would be sweet irony.

   His ego demands that traffic everywhere be stopped for hours for no good reason.

   Anybody who would pay thirty-grand to watch Nancy Pelosi eat can’t possibly have the ability to understand the size and scope of government waste

   I suppose 30K is pocket change to these people. The pupose is two-fold probably. Funds their “fighting for the little people” dem party heroes and keeps them in good standing with the LA-Hollywierd leftists. And of course they don’t understand the size and scope of government waste – many of them are tax evaders and do everything they can to make sure as little of their own cash as possible ends up in IRS coffers for the government to waste. If there is any money wasting to do, this crowd will do it themselves.

   And from this link cited by Doug: “…another disgruntled elitist limo-lib”

   “If you’re asking if the United States is about to become a socialist state, I’d say it’s actually about to become a European state, with the expansiveness of the welfare system and the progressive tax system like what we’ve already experienced in Western Europe,” Harvard business and history professor Niall Ferguson declared during Monday’s kickoff session, offering a withering critique of Obama’s economic policies, which he claimed were encouraging laziness.

   “The curse of longterm unemployment is that if you pay people to do nothing, they’ll find themselves doing nothing for very long periods of time,” Ferguson said. “Long-term unemployment is at an all-time high in the United States, and it is a direct consequence of a misconceived public policy.”
   [Niall Ferguson]

    Since there has been extensive discussion of John McCain on another thread and Babs Streisand on this thread, it reminded me of this video clip:

    Ms. Streisand may have taken the evening to scrape up enough cash to cover her electric bill. And it ought to be a beaut after cap-and-trade. That’s a whale of a carbon footprint she’s got going out there.

    The problem with doing nothing is that you never know when you’re done. I guess now days, it’s when you run out of benefits.

    I read something about Babs being upset with Obama a couple months ago at some libfest in Aspen or Vail. Now that she’s figured out how much taking care of the little people is going to cost her, she’s moving a little closer to the right.

    Actually I’m surprised she wasn’t vacationing in Spain with Mo and Sasha. She seems like the “Let them eat cake” type.

    Yeah, at least Clinton was getting a haircut on AF1 when he tied up traffic at that one airport. Who can pass up a decent haircut?!

    Political animals like Streisand and Katzenburg both know when it’s time to exit center right….no pun intended. If they are even, in the least tiny little bit, true to their heritage or religion they know they really should not be there after the Obama Mosque Meltdown. Political animals, yea. After the movie limelight what’s left but to stick your nose in politics and tell the world how to live.

    I think she bites the heads off those liberal children she occasionally uses as human shields.

    Hey, John Wells, how does it feel to do one big F-U to the entire city of Los Angeles? Makes you feel like a big, important man?

    Now, multiply this by all the places he has visited and the vacations he has been on in the past few months. His carbon footprint has to be enormous, and he has p.o’d a LOT of people!! And for what? To put his ugly mug out there and campaign for his next run for King of the World. Yeah, Obama, keep telling us how we can’t drive our SUV’s while you “destroy the planet” with AF One and all the limos you ride around in. Truly an example…of what a POTUS should NOT do. He needs to end up in a 10×10 cell with Bad Bart as his roomie.
    Oh, and I just heard he is packing to leave for his “summer vacation” at Martha’s Vineyard. Summer vacation? As opposed to his June vacations? And his July vacations? Are the American people waking up yet??? Apparently, 49% of them are still snoring away.
