There are not hordes of women waiting in Vegas for your arrival. They are not lined up at the airport begging you to take them. And, despite popular belief, prostitution is NOT legal in Las Vegas in any way, shape or form. Gambling and booze are legal as they are in many places (I think all 3 things should be legal everywhere all the time).
I've never been to a prostitute. Furthermore, you must be boring; while they aren't lined up at the airport, I don't have any trouble at the casinos.
The Mayor of Las Vegas essentially tells the President to go to hell after the POTUS makes some derogatory remarks about Las Vegas (this was the second time).
Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) - Mayor Oscar Goodman has refused an invitation to meet with President Obama when he arrives in town on Thursday. Mayor Goodman called President Obama a slow learner after he told Americans not to blow money on a weekend in Las Vegas if they were saving to put their kids through college.
"I've got other things to do quite frankly for my constituents here in Las Vegas who rely on me to do the right thing as a mayor," explained Mayor Goodman.

So let me get this straight...
.....according to some, including this mayor, Americans should blow away their money that they were saving to put there kids through college?
How ridiculous that anyone, especially the POTUS, would think so little of the character of the majority of Americans that they would be comfortable implying that people who gamble in Las Vegas are spending their childrens' college fund. What a joke!
I agree, we should all go to Las Vegas and blow money on gambling so that our kids can work at Wal-Mart. Gotta keep the overconsumption ponzi scheme rolling.
Obama literally tells people to be responsible with their money and conservatives are angry about it.
How ridiculous that anyone, especially the POTUS, would think so little of the character of the majority of Americans that they would be comfortable implying that people who gamble in Las Vegas are spending their childrens' college fund. What a joke!
Why do you people take everything literally? I'm sure he was being tongue in cheek.
How ironic that Obama who is spending this country into third world status feels comfortable telling others how to spend their personal incomes. What a rank hypocrite.
And oh Obama has more intergrity in his pinky finger nail tip then Goodman has in his whole being.
