The President has such a folksy way of saying…spread out the sacrifice.  What he means is everyone sacrifices except the “folks” in HIS column.

Make it fair Mr. President.  We couldn’t agree more.  That’s why the Middle Class has been pouring into the streets for the past four years!  The backs of the Middle Class are breaking because they are carrying almost half the country with their paychecks.  Do you really think the “53%” needs to share more?????

The Solyndra Solar Power scandal is a perfect example of how quickly the old fashioned decay of making campaign paybacks leaked into The White House.  The Obama team showed their gratitude to donor George Kaiser in the form of nearly a billion wasted dollars of taxpayer money, following no less than 17 lobbying trips to The White House by the billionaire.  Rahm Emanuel was involved.  The Vice President was involved.  Senior White House aide Valerie Jarrett was involved.  Department of Energy appointees of the President were INVOLVED.  The President made a big appearance and is center stage in all of the press photos, stumping for the success of new, green, solar -powered energy.

Taxpayers have to wonder if the President was big on new sources of energy, or just big on thanking billionaire donor George Kaiser so that he would be cued up for 2012.

Now, thanks to the new legal hobby of reviewing e-mail traffic by subpoena, congressional investigators have uncovered that the Obama team KNEW that Solyndra was a failure and tried to keep it quiet until after the 2010 elections.

There is something we need more of In America President Obama:  RESPONSIBILITY.

The only place where we need more sacrifice…is in WASHINGTON.
