Obama's Best Pal Keeps Him in Line

So, Terrified citizen, you believe the Presient should NOT have advisors? And the word is BEHOLDEN.

My sainted mother was a self-taught real estate agent and later a broker. She used to lie awake nights worrying about ways to help deserving family members and friends find houses that were attainable and good investments. She helped my Dad who did not finish high school put 3 kids through college and the 4th to establish himself successfully in business. She did so by working from dawn to way past dusk remodeling and decorating every single family home we ever lived in and selling it for a tax free profit (the rule back then was that the profit had to be invested in another home within 18 months.) She died in a very sad way from emphysema that resulted from her only vice, nicotine addiction which she acquired as a worker in a Remington Arms plant during WWII because smokers were given an extra break the non-smokers were not. (I bet Remington was also heavily into tobacco companies too.)Doctors also told us that much of her lung damage came from life long exposure to fumes from paint, paint remover, etc. So please, remember my Mom next time you make such a sweepinng (but today sadly all too valid) generalization. ; ^)
