This jackass got the nerve to even ask this after he had almost destroyed this country. We should fight so that would never ever happen. So he was the first black president who hates this country and wants to fundamental change this country and the US Constitution, so screw him.

When a president dies, the country pays for their burial. In the case of a president like JFK, who was a war hero and assassinated in the middle of a term, something extravagant is in order His burial at Arlington with the memorial paid for by the people cost almost $4 million in today’s money, adjusted for inflation. The Kennedy family paid for the casket, vault and the eternal flame.

Ronald Reagan, one of the most influential men in history, is buried in California at his Presidential Library, paid for by donations from the people and the Reagan family. In fact, other than Kennedy, which we can all agree was warranted, no president has ever cost the taxpayers more than $100K in today’s money to bury.

The clause in the Presidential Contract enacted by congress in 1819 states that the president shall receive the burial service deemed fit for his stature and that the cost of the funeral and burial plot will be paid for by the people of a grateful nation. While every president who has died in modern history, except Reagan, took advantage of that perk of the presidency, none have gone so far that anyone would ever have noticed. Until now that is.

Barack Obama has just submitted his plans for burial in a plot that will house his entire family, citing the Kennedys, the Tafts and the Roosevelts as precedent, inside a monument he had designed to celebrate the nation’s first black president. (Don’t forget he is half white) The monument, will cost the taxpayers roughly $120 million and will be listed as a national historical place with 24 hour protection from the 3rd US Infantry Regiment, just like the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

The memorial would be built immediately upon approval and occupy the Northeast quadrant of the lawn near the Washington Monument with a view of the White House:

The monument itself would include quotes from his years as president along with a giant bronze statue and burial crypts for him and his family under a large arch:

You heard that right. Obama will be guarded around the clock in a monument among those of our founding fathers and greatest heroes, paid for by the taxpayer. It’s not too late to call your congressman and object.

But not the same.


“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”

― Marcus Tullius Cicero

But not the same.

slatten, I'm laughing so hard, I'm crying! Try as you may, none of these blow-hards have paid the first bit of attention to what you were trying to tell them. It just goes to show, the mindset of some of these alt-right-wing marionettes is way beyond reason and understanding; even from someone who, himself, is a respectful and thoughtful conservative, and tried to make them realize their folly and foolishness. They simply got on a roll and they'll be damned if anyone was/is going to stop them from making complete asses of them by telling them that the OP was "fake news" and a tease to rattle their chains, to begin with.

I do wonder, though, why none of them ever replied to your warnings. It's like they never saw them or didn't bother to read them. They totally ignored you. They took the bait, hook, line and sinker; and didn't even flinch when the hook was set; after you tried to warn them, 3 times. I do admire YOUR persistence, though.

This fits Trumpet to a "tee." Too bad you folks are so blind to his identical actions. But, that's all on you and yours.

You choose to follow him and believe him and his lies. You choose to follow him, even after he admits to disrespecting women, soldiers, those with physical disabilities, and calls the press our enemies. You choose to follow him when he flaunts his disregard and distain for the laws he swore to protect and uphold.

You don't know what you're asking for. If Trumpet had his way, you'd be living very similarly to those who live under Islamic laws; with most of the freedoms you claim to cherish and will defend to the death, taken away. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Even those in your own party have said as much.

People, like slatten, tired to tell you that the OP was a made-up story and you've completely ignored him. You continued making complete fools out of yourselves. But, to you, all, his/their opinions don't matter. You've already made up your minds and to hell with anyone who tries to show you the error of your ways.

Personally, I've enjoyed your show. That you've spent all this time and effort, wallowing in your collective "intellectual incest" is most amusing. That you could make such complete and udder fools of yourselves over a lie is beyond belief. If I hadn't watched it with my own eyes, I'd never would've believed it.

Thanks for showing me that my faith in your abilities to believe anything that appears to be anti- whatever you believe in and be a complete lie, can still make you jump into the shallow end and land on your heads.
