9. Oh geez..........
 

can you focus on a postive note rather than finding something to complain about?

I'll bet you two ponies and a piece of pie that there will be solar panels on top of the WH before Obama leaves office.
Two ponies? There are some people who have yet to receive even one Free PonyTM.

Omarosa will show up for about five minutes of ceremonial spade (RACIST!!!) turning, then leave it to the interns, no doubt.

It's not like Barry & Shelly O'Baby-oh-baby will be in straw hats and overalls tending to these phallac-shaped veggies themselves.  This will be the most expensive produce ever mismanaged in the history of gardening.  The final outcome will cost four times the amount now spent with the current produce provider, and the provider will not lose one sale to the White House kitchen in the process.  

So, BFD.  Symbolism is nourishment for fools.

Are they going to call it a victory garden?

A vegetable garden full of the cabbages that voted for the Big L'oeuf.

Thriving on the steady stream of crap that comes out of his mouth.

Lessee here....plenty o fertilizer, but no spades allowed on the premises.  All the plants will have shallow roots, no taste, and will quickly wilt under bright light.  Yep, that's a liberal garden.

My spidey sense is tingling.  I think the only food more expensive than the $100/LB meat will be the whitehouse grown $500/LB broccoli.
