How was I shown to be a liar? I honestly thought it was $170 million towards Special Needs kids, but it was really education that had a big chunk towards helping Special Needs kids. Get off of your high horse.
Just like many other govenors who are refusing to take some of the money. Did you ever think it's because they will get stuck with canceling the programs when the bailout $$ run out making them look like the bad people?
I could care less about bowling & whos good or bad.Special needs people are not the easiest to get along with & you gotta have alot of patience & understanding.If you're "special" roysoldboy I meant no disrespect.
Is ir common pratice for presidents to go onto the Jay Leno show?
Not Jay Leno in particular but many presidents in the past have used the newest or different medias to get the word out. Sort of like FDR's fire side chats Kennedy's first TV appearance, Reagan's radio addresses (although not new obviously it was one of Reagan's best abilities to transmit his message)....

I was traveling for work this past week when Obama made his rude remark and made fun of Special Olympics. I was in airports continuosly as the story was playing over and over on monitors. The amount of heads shaking and the comments comming from fellow travelers in airports seems to imply this could be a VERY defining moment (down) for Obama. There was much disgust from people that anyone would make fun of Special Olympics, but the fact that a sitting president would was a crying shame.
Obama making his comment on Leno, sounded like some insensitive 15 year old Beavis & Butthead type kid with his buds.
People have finally seen the lie.....people have finally seen the insensitivity of Obama.
Many of you are saying it's not a big deal and he was just joking. He was also "joking" when he said his grandmother was a typical white woman". He's quite the jokester isn't he? What if Bush had made a comment about a typical black person or joked about handicapped people, would all of you call it a joke? I think not.

They would have done everything short of tar and feathering him!
