FOR ME, BUT NOT FOR THEE

Oprah, at the Duke University commencement: “It’s great to have a nice home. It’s great to have nice homes! It’s great to have a nice home that just escaped the fire in Santa Barbara,” she told the students. “It’s great to have a private jet. Anyone that tells you that having your own private jet isn’t great is lying to you.”

Who wouldn’t want their own jet?

The problem is, a lot of people don’t want anybody else to have private jets. They don’t want other people to drive nice cars, live in nice homes, eat at expensive restaurants, or otherwise enjoy the fruits of their success.”

A few months ago, Obama said, “You can’t get corporate jets, you can’t go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayer’s dime.” But hey, if you want to fly your private jet over the Statue of Liberty or to Las Vegas ....

Hypocrisy, thy name is liberal.

And, oh, by the way, dear Taxpayer, it’s your dime.
