Bit rich? Barack Obama 'to pocket £2.5million for sold-out speech in Milan today'



I don't mind politicians making money after they leave office however it appears Democrats make money in such unethical ways.

Obama is a crook.
 
BARACK Obama will reportedly pocket a staggering £2.5million (€3million) today for delivering a speech to a sold-out audience in Milan as part of his lucrative post-presidential speaking tour.

Fools can be found everywhere.

Socialists form the core of Obama's supporters so it's not surprising he's finally going on his apology tour through Europe to sold out audiences.
 
He must have quite a recipe to offer. ;)

He was always good at oratory and cut a bella fugura albeit empty of content, a little heavy on 'we try harder' humor ans schmalz. But it's probably a lot to do with his successor; more than with anything he did. Sort of like that peace prize the Europeans gave him.

Another problem I find is that democrats after leaving office make money essentially doing nothing. They are really stealing.

I will never understand how liberals can equate a voluntarily paid speaking fee with stealing, but never the forced redistribution of wealth.

How is Obama stealing by accepting this money? From who? "Essentially doing nothing" by what standard?

You are literally the only person I know who identifies left of center who feels that way. Literally the only one.

Im not sure you will find many on the right who feel that way either. There is nothing unethical about what Obama is doing, nor is it stealing. If people are willing to pay him that much to hear him talk, he should go for it. I would and so would anyone else.
 
Is this the same guy that told us, "I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money"? I'm sure he'll let us know when he gets there.
 
For an ex-Prez. isn't he short-selling himself a bit?
 


The dopes who would spend their money listening to the bull****ter extraordinaire. :screwy

A mouthful there, Holmes!

Yep, that article was a mouthful dwelling on the mouth, full of ****!

No doubt about that.

I wish I had a **** to give about this, but alas, I have none.

That's the kind of apathy Democrats thrive on. If the MSM spent as much time bashing Obama as they spend on bashing Trump, I might give them some credit. But, they are liars and ignore the truth. Half the fake news out there, comes from the MSM.

Well said.

He must have quite a recipe to offer. ;)

Ya, a recipe for BS, lies and damnable lies.

He was always good at oratory and cut a bella fugura albeit empty of content, a little heavy on 'we try harder' humor ans schmalz. But it's probably a lot to do with his successor; more than with anything he did. Sort of like that peace prize the Europeans gave him.

What a joke that was. All Obama did was promote racism and divide, in the US. 8 years wasted.

Correct.
