I am willing to bet that he will not buy that house. If he does, I quit posting for three months....if he doesn't you do the same.Where is Whirly when a bet is proposed?
The time frame is three months after leaving office or any time before in case he does buy that house.
Another nugget is that I do not remember boardman questioning GWB's money and how he came about acquiring it.
Were one to look into it, one could deduct it was made mostly off the backs of taxpayers...

Briefly, here's what happened on the Ballpark deal. Bush and his partners in the Rangers convinced Arlington officials to: Pass a half-cent sales tax to pay for 70% of the stadium; use the government's powers of eminent domain to condemn land the Rangers couldn't or didn't want to buy on the open market; give the Rangers control over what happens in and around the stadium; and allow the Rangers to buy the stadium (which cost $191 million to build) for just $60 million. Finally, after 12 years as the sole occupant and primary beneficiary of the stadium project, the Rangers, a privately owned business, can take title to the most expensive stadium ever built in Texas for the $60 million worth of rent and upkeep they will have already paid the city.

Unfortunately, it has been the taxpayers' "bread" .. and fund raising. Originally Posted by LexusLover

No.I don't think Obama has used the "the taxpayers' bread ... and fund raising" to buy a mansion.
I was referring to Mr. and Ms. Obaminable.
That's what this thread is about. Not your pet peeve.
Try to keep focused on the present and the future. Originally Posted by LexusLover

If I am not mistaken, ..... Originally Posted by bigtex

Why don't you supply a link that Obama is engaged in "the taxpayers' bread ... and fund raising" and once you have done so, I will do a search about Shrubbie?
If it hasn't closed, it hasn't been funded.
I guess you have a link confirming that George Bush used taxpayer money to buy the Ranch or a "mansion." And just to clarify, not one of your lame-ass political hack OP-ED blogs full of ranting bullshit.
Until you "hook up" the link, I'll be doing something more stimulating than reading your whining about Bush. Originally Posted by LexusLover
