Another Florida media with a back-handed attempt at blaming a smaller government on problems....laying the foundation for their hero Obama....

Well...let’s hope they are noticing. Otherwise Zero and his Family need to ratchet it up a notch or three more.

Maybe they could shut down the Air Traffic System one day a week? Or how about buying one of those Carnival Cruise Liners for the next Presidential Yacht? Imagine the “conferences” they could have on board one of them and turn them into one or two week cruises to do so.

Of course there would have to be some modifications like the indoor golf range. And of course the small fleet of Navy ships including submarines as part of the presidential protection team.

And yet Die Schwartz Fuhrer just offered a middle eastern country (I forget which one) $200,000,000 of our money to take care of refugees. Mighty generous with our money

Fake phoney fraud. The government is punishing us for not giving it all the money it wants, like a spoiled brat.
