Upcoming Obama Portsmouth Visit Angers Parents -Schools Will Have To Close [Updated]

Obama visit to Portsmouth NH will cause schools to closePortsmouth has announced that it will cancel school on Friday to accommodate President Obama’s visit.  The presence of dear leader will clog up traffic, block roads, and result in building closures so the district has thrown in the towel.  They will have to make the day up In May.

This is not a decision in a vacuum.  When kids stay home adults have to rearrange their lives.  Work, appointments, the added cost for unplanned day care if they can’t change plans or skip work when Obama stops buy to campaign, it all adds up.  Not that Obama gives a damn.  His campaign isn’t going to pay for any of the other costs his campaign appearances force upon local tax-payers.  Campaign appearances….paid for by taxpayers.

Has anyone estimated how much the campaign stop will cost the city of Portsmouth?

Someone had better find out.  And because we know that the Obama campaign will not pay a dime of it make sure your city council send that bill straight to Ray Buckley and the New Hampshire Democrat party where it belongs.

They want to play…make them pay.

[Update: The City of Portsmouth, 5-4, has voted to bill the Obama Campaign for extra costs related to the campaign stop.  What are the odds the campaign will actually pay? (zero).  In which case, I defer to my previous remarks–Bill the New Hampshire Democrat party.]
