You revel in your ignorance, it is almost as if you are proud of it.

Look up some history on the filibuster and how the GOP turned it into an obstructionist tool to prevent Obama/Democrats implementing the majority of what they wanted to do. Everything that got through the senate had to be watered down to scrape just 1 or 2 votes from the Republicans. The GOP broke congress, then blame Obama.

By all means, continue supporting the party of no and espousing their nonsense talking points.

You point is...well...pointless...EVERY president, rich, poor, or somewhere in between, had a so-called (name a state) "white house" Clinton had one in his home state...Bush 41 had one...Bush 43 had his Crawford address...The list is VERY long...Find another issue, friend...this dog just will not hunt...

Is this still the case after Penny Pritzker, Obama’s chief financier, has bought a $35 million beachfront mansion in Kailua on Hawaii for the Obamas?

Here you find an earlier TV report about the estate "Kailua Beach Home For Sale: $36 Million" (uploaded by kitvtv) and a report in the Honolulu Magazine with the title "As seen on Hawaii Five-0: Fantastic Kailua estate".

So have “fun” watching the "poor" Obamas in January 2013 fly to the luxury house while the economy is going thru a depression.

Only problem is they are very short sighted people. All they see in your comment is "pay higher taxes", "poor", "profit"

[BorgKing001]

nope

[Gary Meister]

But you're the one who should be ashamed. Let me guess...you're a republican...right.

[BorgKing001]

Your ad hominem response reveals a lot about you.

[Gary Meister]

Your comments reveal a lot about you.

bullshit, i used to be all idealistic and do all sorts of charitable work and the one it taught me is most people just use the system. They are fucking ghetto and white trash. They can fucking starve for all i care

The question isn't should we punish success but whether we should turn the other way when so many among us suffer. It is too often seen as either/or and it shouldn't be. We are asking the wrong questions. For example it is a common misunderstanding to believe that most folks on welfare are lazy, when in reality the majority are disabled or single mothers who have been the victims of domestic violence or childhood sexual abuse.
