On the environment: "We don't have time for a meeting of the Flat Earth Society."

If barack hussein had given this speech as part of his campaign for reelection, he now would be paying for his vacations instead of the American taxpayers footing the hefty bills.

The Quad City Times reports this morning - pg c5 -Branstad is heading to Europe for a trade mission. "The European trip will cost about $17,000 for Branstad and his wife Chris. Those costs will be covered by Iowa Economic Development Authority Foundation funds, not state funding." There you go brainiac, you can't spell his name correctly and do not post facts. You are bogus.
