Back in January 2009, before he signed his failed $787 billion stimulus bill into law, Barack Obama told America that everyone must sacrifice for the greater good. Everyone must have “some skin in the game.”
What he meant, of course, was that everyone would have to sacrifice to lift American out of the worst recession since the Great Depression… except for Barack and Michelle Obama.
Here’s today’s photo of individual sacrifice…
Michelle Obama in a $2,763 coat:
With the nation still mired in a deep recession that has millions of Americans experiencing economic ruin, the Obama administration marked Barack Obama’s one-year anniversary as president by displaying a photograph of First Lady Michelle Obama wearing a $2,763 designer coat as the ‘White House photo of the day’ on the front page of WhiteHouse.gov.
Remember: We all must have “some skin in the game.”
