Obama making news about wrong things

Posted March 13, 2012 4:00 am

The current administration has given $500 million to Solyndra, which has gone bankrupt. And $49.5 billion to bail out General Motors. President Obama just days ago was touting the Chevy Volt and was so thrilled to just be “sitting in it,” and when he is no longer the president, he will purchase the Chevy Volt. Is he unaware that Chevy has stopped production of the Volt because they aren’t selling?

There’s 8.3 percent unemployment, millions of foreclosures, bankrupt companies, and gas prices at an all-time high. Enter Sandra Fluke and her contraception issue. The American taxpayer is now being encroached upon to pick up her tab for her contraceptives. She had no problem boasting of her sexual activities before Congress. Where does this administration stop?

Then the news of the day is Obama calling her to comfort her; the leader of the free world is involved in this girls sexual decisions? I assume this is to get the American people to get their minds off what the truly important issues are. Scary stuff.
