Local members of the Tea Party sponsored a float, decorated to look like a Radio Flyer wagon, pulled behind a truck. In that truck a number of people sat holding signs that read everything from “Obama Care” and “Healthcare Take Over” to “Wasted Tax Money.”

But the thing that got people upset was a man in shirt and tie wearing a mask of President Barack Obama. In one hand he held a sign that read “Hey Kids! Thanks for paying out debt!” In the other hand he held a horse riding crop which he snapped at a young teen in front of him pretending to pull the wagon by the handle wearing a shirt that read “Future Tax Payer.”

Now to be fair, Obama provoked this kind of reaction by creating the National Debt.

    Personally, the image of some crackers getting whipped does not offend my delicate sensibilities.

    I just got finished watching Goodbye Uncle Tom.

    Oh and swiffness, Barry O didn't create the debt.

    That may be partially true but he sure hasn't put any restrictions on his spending habits. I will never understand how anyone can spend their way out of debt including our own government it makes absolutely NO sense at all.

    What you have to understand is he is not spending and it is not his debt. He is only an agent of the Global banking system that owns the treasury of the US. He is just a facilitator as his previous predeccesors, to make sure they get paid.

    House ? response.

    Thinks people should adhere to fictional standards that most American and English whites don't adhere to. Consider the delicious, etherous irony of this smart ass comment about English composition 101, when he typed the word English in lower case, when it should be in upper case, because according to English composition standards all proper adjectives are capitalized.

    Thank you, Mrs. Coyne.

    It's not an house ? . According to the English composition standards you strictly adhere to, it would be "a house ? ". An should only be followed by words that begin with an "h" if the "H" is silent. Like honest, honor, herb, etc. House ? does not qualify.

    Smh, double self ether. LMAO.

    Disturbing but funny.

    They should have a 2nd float in which Ronald Reagan was whipping an American taxpayer.

    After all, he was the one of the first Presidents to create a major deficit......or was he the first???

    Do the research and find out...........lol
