“To this day liberals still hyperventalate over Nancy Reagans purchase of fine china for state dinners.”
Didn’t the Clintoons take those with them when they cleared out of the White House?
NewsFlash : He Ain’t worth it !.....
Taxpayers already fund Camp David. It has all the security needed. If a POTUS doesn’t have his/her own place to go to for vacations, the First Family should just retreat to Camp David.
The idea that US taxpayers have to pay for these over-the-top forays of this First Family (and they are merely aping the Clintons) is ridiculous, and an insult to every Joe/Jane Lunchbucket who has to pay his/her taxes, but can’t afford a family vacation of their own.
hardly.
they’d have been calling for financial investigation by special prosecutor, and discussing the various impeachment counts the “king” was going to be tried on. at the least. leading campaigns to send emails to whouse telling them to stop frivolous spending, all the vacations, and where’s all the jobs you promised?
it would be never ending pressure on all fronts, combined w/ worst economy in last 50 years...
What do you expect from President George Jefferson. “We’re moving on up!” Just taking advantage of the perks. No interest in being president, only the good stuff that comes along with it.
does this include her $3+ BILLION in clothing, and pay for the kids as her aides?
Article I, section 9: "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law..."
So, who is at fault here?
The spending comes from Congress, not from Obama. If the Republican House did not pass these appropriations, the spending would not happen.
not my point but yes, i know. read it in the context offered.
Holy crap, your tag line. I missed that. Nyt did it for real?!?!? Omg.
Just looked it up. TOO FUNNY. The poor headline writer get it right, and was probably canned.
SNL couldn’t make stuff like this up.
Did any comedian hit this??
