Some President - can't even control his own party.

Here's my favorite...

And Rep. Maurice D. Hinchey (D-N.Y.) vowed to force the White House to
accept delivery of a new presidential helicopter Obama says he doesn't
need and doesn't want. The helicopter program, which cost $835 million
this year, supports 800 jobs in Hinchey's district. "I do think there's
a good chance we can save it," he said.

"force the White House"??? So why not just hand each of those "workers"
$100K to do *nothing* and save $755 million?




The key word is *Force*

The reason there is no common sense in handing out the large cheques
to the employees, thus saving the government hundreds of millions of
US dollars is that it would destroy a chance for a glorious coup
d'état.


And for that simple reason, WAFA and his buddies will likely remain
silent on this topic.
