So this is really more of an NYS thing but since the Sarah Palin event was in here, I suppose this belongs here too. President Obama is coming to Buffalo next Thursday to talk about the economy. [http://www.buffalonews.com/2010/05/06/1042059/obama-to-visit-buffalo-next-week.html](http://www.buffalonews.com/2010/05/06/1042059/obama-to-visit-buffalo-next-week.html) Details still being worked out. I’m going to try really hard to get in on this. ---

Oh boy thats gonna be an event for sure. I will be avoiding driving anywhere he is that day. I wonder if this is why there were lots of army trucks going both directions on the 33 this morning. Possibly getting ready for extra security at prior… ---

She’s been getting more involved in WNY lately little by little. Apparently the events are likely to be a town hall meeting, meetings with local businessmen, and a visit to a restaurant in the city. Hopefully I can get in on the town hall. ---

I don’t necessarily agree with her much of the time, but she’s at least been able to realize there is a NY state outside of NYC, something her predecessor never did. Of course Hillary never really gave a shit about NY, NYC included, since we were just her stepping stone to the national stage.

Obama is an idiot and I pay enough taxes to listen to him speak so I won’t waste another dollar. I hope he burns his mouth on some suicide wings… maybe then he won’t talk for a while and we’ll be safe from him for a few minutes at least. ---
