[rsmith6621]

My Sis in Law called today.......we talked about family a bit then she placed in to the conversation this statement out of no where...


Barak Obama will declare a state of emergency because the cost of his inaugural party will drain the Treasury


Really I said where did you hear that....Fox news and a couple San Diego radio station.....I said that is hilarious...you believe everything they say....silence......I said President Obama is paying for his own party through remaining campaign funds and grassroots supporters helping with their own pocketbooks and to address why the party is costing 2 to 3 times more then the worthless morons did in 2001 cost of everything have gone up and there will sadly have to be more security because there sadly is someone out there that thinks the way things are right now is just GREAT and WONDERFUL......Give Barak a chance to serve before you criticize him... give him and yourself a chance to celebrate the USA coming full circle,Tuesday will be the first day of Americas RENEWAL...

So when will you be coming to San Diego she said.....I hope something sunk in like TRUTH.....

1. The truth is Bush's cost almost as much as Obama's...

$157 million for Bush's. Here's where the media fucked up. They compared the $160 million number for Obama INCLUDING security costs with the amount that Bush raised. They did NOT include security costs in Bush's total. The government spent $115 million on security for Bush.

2. I read something earlier that said the reason Obama's inaugural costs so

much more is because they never added in the cost of security before, they are now.

3. Bush's was the same. The recent reports failed to acknowledge the amount DC paid for security in 05.

Bush's cost about 157 million. Its really all the same.

4. Apparently Republicans can't even count these days...

Obama's inauguration even IF it did cost $160 million is chump change compared to any number of things in the Federal budget...

A single space shuttle launch costs $500 million - over three times as much.

NASA's annual budget is around $16 BILLION - 100 times as much.

A month in Iraq costs $10 billion about 60 times as much.

The Federal Education budget is (last I heard) around $60 BILLION dollars - 400 times as much.

Apparently we need to raise the Education budget though so that we can teach your sister in law how to count..

:crazy:

6. Bush called a national emergency

to deal with crowds, roads, etc.

Set the record straight!!!

'The emergency declaration -- based on crowd projections, not the weather -- came less than a week after D.C. Mayor Adrian M. Fenty (D) asked for the aid, citing estimates of 1.5 million to 2 million people expected to attend, according to a Bush administration spokesman. The city has projected its tab for the inauguration at $47 million, about three times as much as Congress has given the District. . .

The White House statement said that President Bush "declared an emergency exists in the District of Columbia" linked to the inauguration. It said the city would get federal money for protective measures "undertaken to save lives and protect public health and safety."

Officials said that the move reflected a post-Hurricane Katrina reform that allows the White House to predesignate areas that could become disasters, such as cities in the path of a hurricane.'
