Obama’s hypocrisy is now the stuff of legends. Typical Liberal. Do as I say, not as I do.



President Barack Obama traveled to California Friday to highlight the state’s drought emergency at two events near Fresno, calling for shared sacrifice to help manage the state’s worst water-shortage in decades. He then spent the rest of the weekend enjoying the hospitality of some of the state’s top water hogs: desert golf courses.

Vacationing with DVDs of his favorite television shows and multiple golf outings with his buddies, the duffer-in-chief played at two of the most exclusive courses in the Palm Springs area. On Saturday, Obama played at the Sunnylands estate, built by the late billionaire Walter Annenberg, which features a nine-hole course that is played like 18 holes. The following day he golfed at billionaire Oracle founder Larry Ellison’s 19-hole Porcupine Creek. On Presidents’ Day, Obama hit the links at Sunnylands once again.

The 124 golf courses in the Coachella Valley consume roughly 17 percent of all water there, and one quarter of the water pumped out of the region’s at-risk groundwater aquifer, according to the Coachella Valley Water District. Statewide, roughly one percent of water goes to keep golf courses green. Each of the 124 Coachella Valley courses, on average, uses nearly 1 million gallons a day due to the hot and dry climate, 3-4 times more water per day than the average American golf course.

Sounds as if they need to close down those golf courses.

MSM continues to avoid the hypocrisy and inconsistencies. People remain largely unaware, and lack the critical thinking ability to challenge what's being generally preached by these media.

What would you expect him to do, demand that all golf courses be shut down by executive order?

Then you would be in here complaining about his misuse of power.

Another weak straw man argument.

And this idiot claims to teach young people.

The dumbing down continues.

You were too cowardly to take the challenge on that. Still stands: I prove myself right, and you leave the forum or have all your posts approved by me prior to posting.

I know you're semi-literate, and you know you're semi-literate...I figure that's why you're afraid to take the wager

Meanwhile, California farmers had little to no water thereby ruining this year's crops.

As opposed to the FEDERAL JUDGE in VA who didn't know the difference between the Constitution and Declaration of Independence?

I wonder if he is any good?

Nope. I asked you to provide the part of the Constitution that had God in it and you avoided it.

You got schooled but it's okay because I'm a teacher and I'm used to schooling arrogant types such as yourself.

Not at all true. But it's written down, and unlike your classroom lies, you can't deny this one.

And the wager still stands, and you're ducking it again.

Coward.

When you provide the part of the Constitution that has God in it, I will be more than happy to review your request.

You really shouldn't be in education.

But the ruling class has certain obligations to live well. I call it "The Emperor Fiddles While California Burns".

So those are the only two options in your mind: golfing at a desert golf course in a drought or signing an EO to shut down golf courses? There isn't an Option C, such as not patronizing the golf course?

If Obama WASN'T playing on that gold course he'd be complaining about white privilege and how rich, well-to-do gringo club members get water for their pleasure while the surrounding farms and those in No Cal are drying up.

I'm still waiting for him to deliver on his statement. You are welcome to join in if you want.
