Obama: Still not getting it.

The headline is, “Obamas take ‘middle class’ holiday in North Carolina

Barack and Michelle Obama flew off for a brief holiday in North Carolina on Friday in what was seen as an attempt to take a “middle class” vacation more in keeping with those of ordinary Americans.

“Michelle, let’s go slumming in the flyover and pretend we’re ordinary Americans”.

Here’s a tip for politicians. Don’t pretend to be something you’re not. When you do, you look like a fish out of water and it’s obvious that you don’t belong. Next time you’re tempted, just remember Dukakis in the tank, or Obama throwing a ball.

Fail.

    Tell you what: let’s all take a “political class” vacation. We’ll go to the bank and skim everyone’s accounts for pocket money, then a dozen of us can hop in the second largest passenger airliner made in the U.S. We’ll haul ass in our mostly-empty jumbo jet to some pizza joint so we can wave at the rubes we stiffed, and take a single bite of the house pie. Then we’ll fly down to the most exclusive tropical resort on the face of the planet under the pretense that we’re fixing climate change, and we’ll wash away the taste of blue-collar food with the most expensive liquor and 38-course meal money can buy. Don’t sweat the air travel expenses, we’ll just bill ’em to the Air Force.

  2. “Middle class” vacation?

    The hell? I didn’t even know that ANYONE could afford to take vacations anymore!

    Well, aside from the Obamas, that is.

    “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.’

    -Napoleon Bonaparte

    Dukakis in the tank, Kerry with the goose hunting garb that still had the pricetags swinging from them, now Barry pretending to be one of us booger-eating peasants.

    If he thinks that low of us, all the better for him to get what he deserves.
