http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/romney-sharpens-attack-on-dodd-frank-financial-regulations/2011/06/20/AGPbUwdH_story.html

As he worked the tables at Brewery Bar, a Mexican joint in an Aurora strip mall, Romney was loose and appeared at ease, posing for pictures, signing baseball hats and dipping into a bowl of guacamole.

At one table, a boy offered Romney a $1 bill that he had folded origami-style for good luck. The candidate happily accepted it, but then rifled through his wallet looking for money to give the boy in return. Romney had a $100 bill, but evidently did not want to give that away. An aide handed him a $1 bill, but Romney said that wasn’t enough.

Then, deep inside his leather billfold, Romney found a $5 bill. “We’ll give you an Abraham Lincoln back,” he said, handing it to the boy.

Last I checked our current president is rich too.  I bet he's got 100 bills in his wallet as well.

Maybe we should teach them about technology and how dirty money is.

There's got to be a newer one.

The prophesies on them, the cocaine, the sparkles and stripper oil...just like a televangelist.

I hear he's on a fixed income.

Perhaps he knows how to fix income?

I tend to like people who are better at making money than they are at spending it.  Hmmm.  Undecided
