Obama can't do a thing right these days, and that doesn't exclude his lastest move-- flying to Los Angeles yesterday (via Airforce 1), for a set of fundraisers organized to help Sen. Barbara Boxer raise campaign funds. Per the L.A. Times, these fundraisers were expected to raise $3.5 million for the 3-term Senator (pictured above with Obama).
Of course, the haters will allllways have their 2 cents! This time they complain that Obama is using taxpayer's money to fly back and forth via Airforce 1 yet won't take the time to talk to the residents. Or, in other words, Obama won't come kick it with he regular folk, and that's messed up 'cause we got you in. With the economy in the crapper, the haters are saying that it's the regular folk, not the rich, who really need him right now.
Sounds like a valid point but people need to consider that what he is doing (he feels) is for the regular folk. He's a big picture guy, I'm sure. And, the big picture is that his helping with the fundraising for Boxer is what's best for CA in the longrun. Right? Though, he has an entire administration behind him and not one person said to him, "Hey, Prez, think you should hold a townhall meeting to address the economy and just kind of make people feel you're thinking about them? You are flying to L.A. on their dime, afterall."? But who are we??? Ohhh, nevermind. Carry on...
