    Almshouse of the highest order

    House Oversight chair suggests Congress could go after Obama's pension over $400,000 speech

    Former president Barack Obama's upcoming speech to investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald has caught the eye of US lawmakers — particularly for the six-figure payment Obama is receiving for the appearance.

    At least one lawmaker suggested Congress may evaluate Obama's presidential pension because of it.

    House Oversight and Government Reform chair Jason Chaffetz commented in a USA Today story published Wednesday that said lawmakers may reintroduce a bill that would target presidential pensions if a former commander-in-chief earns outside income of at least $400,000.

    Not surprised. IF they could go further they would. Give them time.

      THERE IS ONLY ONE ONANDI LOWE!

      "Good things come out of the garrisons" after his daughter won the 100m Gold For Jamaica.


      "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

        A black man sitting in the White House cut them deep. Now they are trying to expunge everything he did and rewrite history.
