Patrick Riley, The Lost Ogle:
However, its irritating that while the average Oklahoman was cutting back and trying to recover from the Great Recession, our state’s Chief Executive Officer was busy worrying about the temperature in her swimming pool and the size of a hot tub cover. If that doesn’t show how out of touch she is with the average Oklahoman, I’m not sure what does…other than her constant need to vacation out-of-state.
If you are an Oklahoman struggling to pay for gas, food, and utility bills, I’m sure you can relate to the state spending $3,255 in maintenance costs to keep Gov. Mary Fallin’s pool and hot tub exactly the right temperature.
