Barack Hood and Merry Men

Calling for redistribution of wealth, Barack Hussein Obama has been constantly but unsuccessfully posing as a political Robin Hood. In all fairness, he did bring the legend to a whole new level:  the original Robin took from the rich to give to the poor; Barack Hood takes from the impoverished taxpayers to give to himself.

Berry Good Time

Adequately nicknamed as the vacationer-in-chief , BHO enjoyed 38 luxury holidays and counting. In 2009, just before enacting the stimulus disaster Obama preached:”Everyone must sacrifice for the greater good”, and off he went on outrageously expensive vacations.

In 2010, the poverty level as defined by the federal government was $22,314 for a family with two kids; Obamas’dog Bo costs the taxpayer more than that – his handler is reportedly paid over 100,000 a year.

Both Barack Hussein and Michelle are known to make speeches on Veterans homelessness, but they somehow manage to fight back crocodile tears and blow funds which could finance an entire shelter or thousands of tents.

The 2013, 17 –day fun in Hawaii cost over $4 million; the first family’s 2015 Valentine’s Day was spent separately, and yet the Obamas sang in unison “I’m so much in love with you” to $2.5 m of “hey, folks” bread.

The British couldn’t help but notice that the Obamas cost American taxpayers $1.4 billion per year, which is 20 times more expensive than their Royal Family.

Lady Michelle

According to records obtained by Judicial Watch, Michelle Obama’s August 2010 fun trip to Spain only, cost American people at least $467,585. Her two-day trip to Cambodia meant renting 85 rooms and we “the crowd” forked out $242,500. Michelle’s grandiose spending and staff comparable to royal court raised eyebrows all over the world. Her £32,000 lingerie shopping spree at British Agent Provocateur got more comments in Europe than in the USA; maybe because some jobless, food stamp juggling “commoners” could consider it a further provocation.

Whiskey Tango Feinstein

What are the most distinctive features of Barack Hood’s merry men? Ribbon cutting,lengthy speeches preceding and following the action of doing nothing. On June 5, 2015 Senator Feinstein announced:” “Today is a great day for the West LA VA. The opening of Building 209 has been years in the making and will provide housing for 65 homeless veterans.”

Sen.Feinstein did notice that there were “more” homeless Veterans in L.A. Like few thousands more…

On June 23,2015 Jan R. Frye ,Deputy Assistant Secretary for Acquisition & Logistics (Veteran Affairs) testified before the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigation “as a VA whistleblower, representing American taxpayers and America’s military veterans”.

Mr.Frye said he was providing the subcommittee information concerning one of the most deceptive schemes he has uncovered in his 41 years of government service. He stated:

“A reasonable person might conclude my disclosure of illegal acts would be accepted with open arms by VA’s leadership for further investigation. That has not been the case. My intentional removal as a VA witness for this hearing is irrefutable proof of continuing scorn for those who attempt to uphold the public trust.”

Unfazed, Sen.Feinstein thanked Secretary McDonald for his “commitment”, adding that “He is the leader the VA sorely needs”.

Merry Men

In 2011, BHO thought that “it was entirely appropriate for our governments and our agencies to try to root out waste, large and small, in a systematic way”, so he called for belt –tightening and directed agencies to cut back on unnecessary purchases and travel expenses. What followed was Obama’s participation in the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit; naturally he had to travel in style and Air Force One comfort only amounted to more than $9 million.

However, it should be noticed that BHO can be generous with his frolicsome cast; the proof is in unprecedented lack of accountability and corruption. Even if some ungrateful peasants react to his golfing through beheadings and series of sooo well-deserved holidays with unrefined “go and pack yourself!” the Congress finds him unimpeachable and his bodyguards get to parteeh! In March, 2014 one of Obama’s bodyguards had so much fun, that he actually passed out in the Huis Ter Duin Hotel in Amsterdam. The member of Counter Assault Team (CAT) must have overdosed on some Dutch catnip.

What could the lowly commoners from Nothing Ham possibly wish Mr.President, right before his next fun trip? Only the equally common slogan figuring on holiday post-cards springs to mind:

“Have a nice summer vacation. Remember you must enjoy them as much as you can, they will not last forever.”
