Other ways the president could have made his point

With all due respect to Detroit, New York, Chicago, Hollywood, Orlando and Copenhagen, here are a few ideas for Obama's next punch-a-city-in-the-gut speech. Of course, I'm not trying to say anything negative about those cities and therefore no apology required.
"You don't blow a bunch of cash on a new GM car when you're trying to save for college."
"You don't blow a bunch of cash on a Broadway show when you're trying to save for college."
"You don't blow a bunch of cash on a White Sox game when you're trying to save for college."
"You don't blow a bunch of cash on "Avatar" when you're trying to save for college."
"You don't blow a bunch of cash on Disney World when you're trying to save for college."
"You don't blow a bunch of cash on a junket to Copenhagen when you're trying to fix the deficit."
