In reaffirming the greatness of our nation we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted, for those that prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things — some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor — who have carried us up the long rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.
BARACK OBAMA, Inaugural Address, Jan. 20. 2009
Those guys? Yeah… they didn’t build that.

Yet he seems to prefer leisure over work.
Wisdom? No. Just double talk.
Jimmy, Obama bills like a lawyer. All he has to do is think about the job and we get billed for the work, and by billed I mean he is going to make some of us pay.
I’m sorry I’m confused. obama was talking about another country in Europe right? Because he’s trying as hard as he can to tax and regulate out of business any of the people he just referenced. Does he listen to himself when he talks or does he understand what he reads from the tele prompter?
