You’re addressing the symptom and not the problem. The real source of this is his continued insistence on drinking water. This kind of tyrannical entitlement is typical of his mad money burning ways. I mean c’mon, doesn’t he know how much water costs?

I support this Pitting. I wanted to protest Obama’s waste of taxpayer funds in recent related threads but was afraid my anger would cause me to violate non-Pit language rules.

$200 million per day to rent the Taj Mahal? :dubious: $2,500,000 _per hole_ to play golf with that other black-white halfbreed? :smack: (I assume that’s so expensive because our beloved President will join Tiger at a hooker-and-blow party afterwords.) The $200,000/hour Secret Service bill to babysit the teenage brats seems especially egregious – can’t they just be locked in their rooms?

Contrast this with GWB, who was thrifty enough about taxpayer dollars to stay at Crawford, cheap to protect because of its isolation. But wouldn’t you know? The Socialists had to make up lies about him. When he celebrated killing Obama bin Laden by landing on an aircraft carrier, the only real cost was $19.95 for the ribbons reading “Mission Accomplished.” The fighter flight itself was needed training in case GWB would ever be called up to protect Texas once again from the Viet Cong. But the liberals blathered on and on; even claiming the Iraq War wouldn’t pay for itself. (True, the cost is up to 2 or 3 trillion by now, but that’s mostly just the cost of answering stupid liberal questions.)

It all makes me spitting mad. Is the taxpayer buying watermelons for these Kenyan intruders, or do they at least pay for that themselves?

In fairness, [Obama drinks very little water.](http://www.theonion.com/articles/poll-1-in-5-americans-believe-obama-is-a-cactus,18127/)

So that’s the origin of the phrase.

Well, Biden did promise us the President has a big…[stick](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=649876&highlight=biden)

Let me get this straight; the President stands up for your nation and you’re pissed?

When the president runs out of piss, you can bet he’ll rely on the precious bodily fluids of other hard working Americans to replenish it.

Depending on who you ask, it curves slightly to the left, hangs in the middle, or even bends slightly to the right. 😃
