Bring some credibility to Utah.
We hope that Obama can come and show us the example that is wanting in a politically unstable State.
Obama, I've been to Park City. It's ugly, over priced and stuck up. Catch them in Vail.
Why waste "TAXPAYERS" money in this kind of economy. Perhaps he should learn about a WEB CAM and SKYPES.
While I'm not counting on seeing President Obama in Park City, I have to admit, I pretty much didn't count on seeing him the first time. We planned to wave as he drove by, and yet he stopped and shook *everyone's* hand, after giving a speech. President Obama isn't as partisan as the pundits want him to be, and coming to Utah won't be a roadblock for him. He might not make it, but I bet it's for reasons beyond "those Republicans". If he comes, we'll be planning to wave, once more. Maybe we'll get lucky and get a speech, but even if we don't, it'll be a thrill to wave to our President. At last.
To "Socialism", did you complain about George Bush coming to Utah for a fundraiser in 2008 while his recession was just starting? Did you complain about wasting tax money on flying the 747 jet to attend a private fund raiser for Republicans then?
I bet not, so your complaint now rings extremely hollow, especially when the WGA is composed of the top executives from each western state, both Democrats and Republicans.
Perhaps you don't want him to meet with them and hear them talk about issues so he can help them with the problems the states face?
Perhaps he is proving to be so much better than George at his job and you are afraid he will show that government can work when the leaders care? Of course this would destroy the Republican mantra that government IS the problem.
For BO to visit Utah. No Sundance FF, no movie stars, no swing state potential, no chance of being on Donny and Marie show. Too many guns, too much religion. Stay in France.
Wake up America and realize that Obama is a member of a dangerous political Ku that is over running this country by taking away our agency through marxism faster than we can stop him! He came in when we were unstable, is re-organizing our society and forcing us into a classless people. He blatantly lied the day he was sworn in when he said he would uphold and protect the constitution. That is the last thing on his mind! Our constitution is being destroyed. We aren't letting him socialize our country. Wake UP!
a Huntsman PR campaign to show he is a moderate and position himself for a run. He hasn't got a chance.
It won't be to visit our "enlightened" populace that's for sure!!!!
@Socialism: Did you feel the same way or say the same thing about Bush going to Park City, on Taxpayers' money, for the "important" task of fundraising? I'll bet not. Obama has been invited to this meeting. And from what I can tell, it seems to be an important meeting, not only for Utah, but for the western US. A president willing to go into deep republican waters to hear what they have to say just shows the class of this president. Pull that veil off your eyes, get over your close-minded views, and see that this president, no matter whether you agree with him or not, is trying to make a difference in this world. That's a lot more than one can say about Bush, who's only focus for 8 years was war.
Obama stay where you're at. The govenors have enough tax and spend ideas let alone being influenced by your disastrous agenda.
He'll be there- if, the price is right.
why do you want to add to this guy and help him on to the down fall of america, you know that is what he is doing, obama will stop at nothing till he kills ever good thing america stands for, and he is doing that very fast. wake up people. this guy is a danger to the usa, as we speak obama has thugs in our colledges trying to sign up kids for obamas army, they are calling it the cia, oh yea kids will be happy to join the cia,,, wait till they get in and sign on the small print,, check it out folks,,, we deserve better than this thug and his gang in washington,,
Obama is slowly (no quickly) taking over our country with more and more government power. Even if they only hold 60% in some companies, that is majority vote, thus government controlled. Marxism looks good at first, but just wait. Look at how the government does with everything else they run. They do a terrible job. It is time to give our country back to the people and avoid communism. Make the companies pay the big taxes. Yeah, but then those companies can't sustain it and go under; consequently, the good American people lose their jobs. On top of all of this, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Retard are as corrupt as they get. Come on American, it is time to stand for what is right.
It's interesting to read the wide range of comments--
from "show us the example that is wanting" to "he lied
about upholding & protecting the constitution." I
personally agreed with Tom Brokaw, when he said at the
time of the inauguration that he doesn't know who
B.O. is--what he believes & stands for. That was
after the campaign for the presidency! It's still pretty hard to see, today, what he believes & stands for. It depends on who his audience is! That in
itself says a lot to me. His actions in these first
73 days show me that he is fundamentally a socialist
who believes in big government w/ big power to take
wealth from citizens & redistribute it. To whom?
To programs for "the poor" that have proven ineffectual in the past? To unions & other groups
that helped elect him? That's what we're seeing
today. Since he is the president, he should be
invited, as he was, to the Conf. Let's see what
happens. I wouldn't take too much stock in any of
his administration's "solutions" to western, or any other area, problems. His solutions so far are not
solutions.
@GWB: "Perhaps he is proving to be so much better than George at his job and you are afraid he will show that government can work when the leaders care? Of course this would destroy the Republican mantra that government IS the problem."
Perhaps???? Seriously Obama is proving to be a bigger disaster than Carter. Afraid??? Absolutely I am afraid of Obama and everything he stands for, the guy is a smooth talking, arrogant moron. Destroy the Republican mantra????? Guess you're not paying much attention to the "TEA" parties that are growing in masses. I'll sip the "TEA" and you keep drinking Obama kool-aid, fool!!!!
"Smooth talking, arrogant moron"..
Citizen we are monitoring your communication.
We know where you live.
None of you have anything positive to say
You should have GWB back
Obama is working better than any other President we have had in Office
He is the most intelliget President we ever had as well
If you have nothing but sarcasium to say, Shut up
I don't want to read it
Why don't all of you Obama haters admit that he is doing a Great job which far outshines anything that Mac and Palin could ever have achived in the past 100 days.He inherited a Mess from the prior president and his cronies that we will suffer for many years. God Bless Obama!!!!!
So far, I like the taste of Obama's Kool-Aid. It's helping erase the foul after-taste in my mouth from the previous presidency.
