An open letter to President Obama:
Dear Mr. President,
Do you remember when you first took office and you borrowed and gave away all those hundreds of billions of dollars, much of which went to pay off political debts to all those people who helped you get elected. It must be pretty easy to give away somebody else's money. But isn't too bad that, before you decided on that big give away stunt that sent the national debt through the roof, you didn't think about how tough it was going to be to repay all that money? Or maybe you did think about it and just didn't care. Maybe you thought let somebody else worry about repaying it.
Well, let me tell you Mr. President, we taxpayers are that "somebody else". We got stuck with the bill and we don't have anybody to pass the buck to, unless it is to our children and grandchildren and we hate to do that.
And now you want to be elected to a second term? We have just now learned that we couldn't afford you for one term and certainly not two.
How does that old saying go? Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me!
Sincerely,
A distressed tax payer.
