When you were young, did you get any
ribbons, trophies or special awards? Some of us probably still have a few of
those things in our homes. Athletes get many types of recognition during their
careers from high schools, colleges and the professional world for their
achievements. MVP, the Heisman Trophy, Defensive Player of the Year and
Comeback Player of the Year are just a few of the awards winning athletes
receive. These achievements are hard earned and well deserved.
We have “Halls of Fame” for baseball,
football and basketball that have statues and memorabilia for each of these
sports greatest player and greatest moments. Sports fans from all over our
nation flock to these buildings to remember those special players and those
great contests, recalling victories of the past.
I recently read the newspaper and saw
an article saying that Illinois Legislators have advanced a plan to spend 100
million dollars on a Barack Obama Presidential Library and Museum. This edifice
will be located in the Chicagoland area. Presidential artifacts and records
will be displayed there along with displays of his “achievements” in office.
Illinois is in terrible financial
condition, after decades of misuse of funds, scandals and political blunders,
this state has zero discretionary funding to throw away, and that being said,
we need to examine the decision to erect a building with taxpayer’s money for
the “doubtful” achievements of Barack Hussein Obama.
Where does one start when listing Mr.
Obama’s “achievements”; unprosecuted voter intimidation from his Justice Department,
that could be a start; maybe the ACORN scandal would be a place to start or
dead voters or multiple voters who “cast some ballots” for Mr. Obama could be
“showcased” at the museum. Perhaps the “Green Initiative” could have a wing dedicated
to the hundreds of millions of dollars that were lost on bad investments and
fraudulent companies would be a “fun place” to take the family.
There could be a section dedicated to
Eric Holder for his participation in the “Fast and Furious” scandal and the
countless acts of malfeasance in office that have taken place while he has been
Attorney General; that would really be an educational experience for our
children; “justice in action” so to speak!
Perhaps we could have a video room
showing Mr. Holder refusing to testify at Congressional hearings, or any number
of Obama supporters who have followed suit as has happened in the IRS scandal;
they could sell popcorn for that show! Hey kids, these are real people, not
actors!
Let’s have some pictures of all those
felons who crept across our border to commit rape, murder and drug dealing
while Mr. Obama was telling us “The border is safer and more secure now than it
has ever been”; I’m sure the kids like “fairy tales”!
We don’t want to forget foreign policy;
remember how Obama sold Eastern Europe down the river with that START Treaty
and basically disarmed the entire Russian border (kudos to Putin, he really got
over on Barry there).
Lastly, he could have a montage of
different people talking about the “video” that was responsible for those dead
Americans in Benghazi and finish it off with Hillary Clinton saying “What
difference does it make” as a tag line.
Yes America, we need a building to
commemorate all of the “great achievements” of this President; we need it to
remind us NEVER TO MAKE THIS MISTAKE AGAIN!!
I think directly over the entrance, in
large letters the words “LEST WE FORGET” would be quite appropriate; don’t you?
