Obama takes $1,500,000,000 jackpot to Vegas

First it was buying votes for ObamaCare - most notably the Louisiana Purchase giving $300 million to Senator Landrieu followed by the Cornhusker bribe to buy Senator Ben Nelson's healthcare vote.

Today it was a $1.5 Billion jackpot unveiled in Las Vegas by Mr. Obama.

That’s a really big jackpot in a city that is already accustomed to big jackpots!

Of course, it’s not all meant for Nevada. The $1.5 Billion is to help with the housing crisis and is to be shared by Arizona, California, Florida and Michigan.

One need not ask why Nevada is included with the other states. One also need not ask why this $1,500,000,000 give-away was announced in Las Vegas.

Both are obvious ways to help bolster the standing of Nevada Senator Harry Reid (pictured above) who faces a tough reelection fight in November.

Announcing this in Las Vegas is also a way to help nullify the embarrassing snub of Obama by Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman.
