Is there something pertinent about Minneapolis that warrants spending taxpayer $$$ to travel all the way there and back just to deliver remarks on gun control? We know where he stands on the issue (especially since the recent posting of his shooting pic). . .he’s such a waste of space/air/time/energy/everything but most of all, he continues to waste OUR MONEY!!!
Is Minneapolis being over run by murderers. . .oh wait, I’m confusing that with Chicago. . .why doesn’t he go there to talk about how well gun control laws are working in that city?
Jesse Jackson Wants Homeland Security to Patrol Streets of Chicago

Who knew that Homeland Security was an armed agency suitable to patrol American neighborhoods? That must be why they needed millions of rounds of hollow point bullets.
To shoot us.
He could go to Chicago or Detroit. St Louis. Any number of cities being over-run with illegal guns.
Oops. Wrong issue.
He could just walk outside the WH doors to DC and see what gun control does. He’s just a total waste of time and space.
Doesn’t get started until 10:15 am. . .most hard working Americans have already been on the job for several hours by then. . .too much Super Bowl partying I guess???
Another day of
Whoopee! Another day, another gig! Anything to escape the daily rigors of actual work!
Another day without a daily briefing….
PDB? ‘what difference does it make.’
Back on the campaign trail . . . again. It’s the only thing he knows how to do. In place of leadership, we will get teleprompter readings all across the country.
Valjar did say he would spend a lot more time traveling around the country in his second term. It will be a challenge for him. Not sure how he can possibly top the mileage he racked up over the last four years. Not to worry, he’ll leave Valjar in charge of the czars to keep the regime keeps running smoothly while he’s at play.
Also read somewhere that Valjar plans to travel with him…extensively. If it’s true that she is his ‘brain’, we’re in a heap of trouble!
Minneapolis has a world renowned custom gunsmith shop that Obama wants to chat with. He is so smitten with skeet shooting now, he is looking to have his own gun designed to his specs.
So, does he travel a lot just to get a way from Mooch?
.
how much is this wasted trip cost?
NO MONEY OBAMA………SPEND, SPEND & MORE SPENDING ON ANYTHING HE CAN THINK OF, CAN’T HE SIT IN THE W..H. AND DO IT ON T.V,……..GOD HELP OUR COUNTRY.
And the problem is:
Gun prosecutions under Obama down more than 45 percent

Jetsetter president
My mother would have said “..he’s just got a gasoline a$$”.
What a grifter!!
Maybe they should set the Mississippi River as a travel distance line. Btwn the river and the East Coast he has to take a smaller plane or “the Bus” (he has 2 of them you know). Any thing past the river to the Wrong Coast he can take the big bird. Couple of bus trips would do him good and he can see America as he really doesn’t do much in the WH during regular working hours anyway. Could even stop at a few places and enjoy some Skeet shooting.
Travel 1800+ miles for a two hour discussion on gun control. Spend over a half a million dollars just to have a discussion about something. In business they would do a teleconference and save a butt load of money.
Someone needs to buy him a webcam and conference set up. It would be a heck of a lot cheaper than flying AF1, and would save the world from climate change.
That is a question (one of MANY!) I want to see asked at the WH Daily ‘press’ Brief:
-Why does Obama need to fly all over the US, on AF1 at massive taxpayer expense, for 2 hours to deliever a speach?
(my bad…there I go thinking of & asking better questions than the so-called ‘proffesional journalists’ in the “WH press corps”…)
