I have no idea if this is true but given the esteem in which Barack Obama has held himself, it certainly is consistent. He has the deepest of pity of this country because it is no longer under his governance. I have seen this posting before but take it with a grain of salt.



When U.S. presidents die, the country pays for their burial. In the case of JFK, who was a war hero, and was assassinated in the middle of his first term, something extra is in order. His burial at Arlington with the memorial paid for by the people cost almost $4 million today, adjusted for inflation. The Kennedy family paid for the casket, vault and the eternal flame.

Ronald Reagan, one of the most influential men in U.S. history, is buried in California at his P**********l Library, paid for by donations from the people and the Reagan family. In fact, other than Kennedy, which most agree was warranted, no president has ever cost the taxpayers more than $100,000 to bury.

The clause in the P**********l 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 by the people of a grateful nation. While every president, who has died in modern history, except Reagan, took advantage of that perk, none have gone so far that anyone would ever have noticed.

Until now.

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 precedents.

The monument, that he had designed, celebrates the nation's first black president. The cost to the taxpayers is estimated to be $120 million.

The monument will be listed as a national historical site with 24 hour protection by the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment like the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

The memorial will be built immediately upon approval by congress, and will occupy the northeast quadrant of the lawn near the Washington Monument. It will have a view of the White House. The monument itself would include quotes from his years as president, a giant bronze statue of himself, and burial crypts for himself and his family under a large arch.

You
read that right. Obama will be guarded around the clock in a monument among those of our founding fathers and greatest heroes, and will be paid for by the taxpayer.

Call your congressman and object. If Obama, the worst president in U.S history, wants this memorial, then he and his supporters should pay for all but the burial plot and the ceremony.
