Obama took away our ICE RINKS and Eliminated 75+ LIFEGUARD jobs---FUCK HIM and his agenda.EDIT: He's back again today...

Obama's visit to Madison last week cost us our Ice Rinks and Beach lifeguards!

City of Madison Taxpayers pay over $250,000 to host Obama's Campaign stump here last week.

It WAS NOT and "Official Presidential Visit", it was a Campaign Stump.

"Obama's campaign will pay UW-Madison $15,000 for Thursday's rally, an increase of $4,500 from the president's last campaign stop at the university, Sweeney said. The university also will bill the campaign for other expenses related to the visit such as setup and equipment. For Obama's last visit, those expenses came to about $2,000, Sweeney said.

Police and other public safety costs will be borne by taxpayers. For the 2010 visit, those costs added up to about $260,000."

-----------------------

No Ice Rinks or Beach Lifeguards in 2013.

"The council is also looking at more funds for community services and restoring cuts to beach lifeguard coverage and neighborhood ice skating rinks, council President Pro Tem Chris Schmidt said."

The life guards and ice rinks cost us about $200,000 each year.

That millionaire ASSHOLE with near a BILLION in his campaign war-chest
has taken away two of the best things about living here;
our wonderful beaches and numerous Ice Skating/Hockey rinks and ponds!
This really irritates me.
