Last night President Obama talked about how Americans are sacrificeing to get through this difficult time. He talked about how some are working one day less, or taking pay cuts so their coworkers can keep their jobs.

I havent heard one word of him or members of congress taking a pay cut. When I was in the Army we would lead by example. Maybe some would stop being so critical of our president and members of congress if they would take paycuts and LEAD by example.

i dont think it is possible for him to understand what sacrifice means, he has been a silver spoon raised kid, privleged from the start, he will never be able to underrstand the working man or the working mans sacrifices.

the president doesn't have bills to pay. I don't think they pay rent at the white house or utlities

I like that idea, though the president did something like that.. I would like to see them act like they actually care. I don't beleive that Obama came from wealth, though we do see how wealth changes some people.

hi TJN

You are misinformed, tr. Do some research on Mr. Obama's upbringing. I don't think you'll find any silver spoons.

HONOLULU - He was known as Barry Obama, and with his dark complexion and mini-Afro, he was one of the few blacks at the privileged Hawaiian school overlooking the Pacific.


Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the first African American president of the Harvard Law Review.

ok i guess these articles about him are all lies

hi TJNwaving


How was he a silver spoon raised child?

His mom was on food stamps at one time. His father abandoned him and his mom and then died in a car accident while drunk.

He won a scholarship to attend school in Hawaii and lived with his grandparents there. His mom died of ovarian cancer. After college (that's work), he worked in the community.
