RUSH: Did you know, folks, that if you work hard, you can get ahead? Did you know that? I vaguely remember hearing some nutcases say that, but I didn't believe it. But, yeah, I was just watching the president. There's a thing going on at the White House called the college costs summit. And President Obama's there, along with the first lady, Moochelle.
By the way, Saturday night at the White House, big gala, 50th birthday party for Moochelle. I've never heard of this at this kind of thing. Guests are being told to eat dinner before arriving, because this is a party not paid for by the taxpayers. The Obamas are springing for this, and they're not serving any food. They're not spending their own money.

Neither of them worked a damn day in their lives.
NOW they cut back! And on her birthday...not his. Guess they are aware the public wants their heads on the chopping block
How would the obamA’s know they have never worked

As my wife just said: “You people can bring Michelle all sorts of gifts, but we’re too cheap to feed you in return.”
And you just know that this will not be discussed by the Drive-by media.
Category I refers to your spending your own money on yourself. You shop in a supermarket, for example. You clearly have a strong incentive both to economize and to get as much value as you can for each dollar you do spend.
Category II refers to your spending your own money on someone else. You shop for Christmas or birthday presents. You have the same incentive to economize as in Category I but not the same incentive to get full value for your money, at least as judged by the tastes of the recipient. You will, of course, want to get something the recipient will like – provided that it also makes the right impression and does not take too much time and effort. (If, indeed, your main objective were to enable the recipient to get as much value as possible per dollar, you would give him cash, converting your Category II spending to Category I spending by him.)
Category III refers to your spending someone else’s money on yourself – lunching on an expense account, for instance. You have no strong incentive to keep down the cost of the lunch, but you do have a strong incentive to get your money’s worth.
Category IV refers to your spending someone else’s money on still another person. You are paying for someone else’s lunch out of an expense account. You have little incentive either to economize or to try to get your guest the lunch that he will value most highly. However, if you are having lunch with him, so that the lunch is a mixture of Category III and Category IV, you do have a strong incentive to satisfy your own tastes at the sacrifice of his, if necessary.
“You didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen”
“You didn’t build that!”
I’m glad Rush pointed out what I’ve mentioned about Michelle — her family was financially comfortable with her dad having a job working for the city.
I believe they don’t just hand those out to smarticles — you have to know people and be a good and loyal part of the machine to get a cushy job like her dad’s.
Obama never defines what kind of hard work will lead to success.
He presents, to the unenlightened, if you work really hard, you will eventually become wealthy because you worked really hard.
While most of us understand that life is not always fair, the masses cheer him on.
I would bet that cheapskate Barack won’t even share his dope stash with the partiers.
