President Obama Visiting My Town

Tweet

During his last campaign trail he visited my town as well. When it was all said and done and he left we were still holding the bag we had to pay our local police for additional security, the blocking of roads that the president was going to take, the sheriffs had to call in extra deputy's to help out as well. Now you have to understand that my town is not the best by no means and its having money problems but what town is not. When the President came to my town last time we had to pay all that extra money to have him here. We have had to lay off people that have worked for the city for most of their adult life they have cut funding to keep things open and running. We had to beg local business to keep the free water features running in our park for the kids on hot days. We could not afford to have him visit the first time and now here we are 4 years later and in worse shape than we were 4 years ago. I sent him a letter begging him to not come to my town as we can not afford to host him here. He has not responded and he is scheduled to be here sometime today. So just like I asked him I want to know are we going to be holding his expensive bag again? Do you have any situations like that where some one on the campaign trail has chosen your town to visit and left you holding their bag of expenses? I would prefer if he just skipped us to be honest I dont need to hear his lack luster promises that wont ever happen just like before. How do you feel about this?
