Pay your own damn bills first, Mr. President

By Michelle Malkin

President Obama just finished up his opening remarks at a “fiscal responsibility” summit to address skyrocketing budget deficits.

How about paying your own damn bills first, Mr. President?

There’s yet another new report of Obama campaign/DNC unpaid bills — this one from Springfield, Illinois. Obama owes the city at least $65,000 for overtime and other costs.

That’s in addition to the nearly $2 million Obama still owes the city of Chicago.

And the $24,000 Obama owes the city of Philadelphia.

Deadbeatonomics for He, but not for thee.

Of course I did not make such a claim. It has been done tens of times.

Now wait a second. Didn't i-node claim that we have never put federal funds into unemployment insurance before? How could he be wrong about that?

He may have...but the real issue is whether the stimulus plan imposes a permanent requirement on the states to maintain extended benefits when the fed money has run out...Bobby Jindal says it does, I have read that it doesn't...but I am not sure... inode, the anti-populist, of course jumps right on the bandwagon to condemn the program...but he hasn't read the provision either, so he is out on the limb again
