Weve heard about the government spending $1.5 million to determine why most lesbians are fat and almost twice that much to discover why they are drunks, but a peek under the White House rug shows much more willful waste of our money.
Barack Obama is arming Egypts Muslim Brotherhood so theyll be able to defeat our ally Israel in the next Middle East war. He gives the PLO hundreds of thousands of our money each year as well.
King Barack has eaten through $1.4 BILLION in happy lifestyle spending on him, Mooch and their royal highnesses.
$505,000 of our tax dollars went to to promote specialty hair and beauty products for cats and dogs yes cats and dogs!
The feds are lining someones pockets with $1 million a year to develop a menu for space travel with no such trips even scheduled.
They have stood over a latrine and peed away $27 million of our money to teach Moroccans how to make clay pots.
What could you do with $350,000? The feds gave it to Perdue University to fund a study to help golfers putt better. How about $10,000? Do you think you could have spent 10k better than funding talking urinal cakes in Michigan?
The Department of Agriculture used $300,000 in tax money to get us to eat more caviar. Can you buy caviar with food stamps?
We dont have to wonder how the feds came to order a $30,000 study to determine that Gaydar (the ability to look at a person and correctly surmise he/she is gay) really works. The answer is yes, but of course the same people would say only homosexuals not heterosexuals have this sense bet on that.
They spend millions of dollars each week training Asian call center workers.
Obamas government spends million more of our dollars to develop a Pakistani version of Sesame Street presumably Big Bird will show young jihadists how to cleanly chop off infidel heads.
Obama has made $147,138 tax dollars disappear by funding the American Museum of Magic in that great center of culture Marshall Michigan.
Everyones favorite head exploder has to be Obamas spending $ 2.6 million to get hookers in China to drink less.
There are many more of these disgusting wastes of our money, but keeping his list in mind puts the slimy stunts Obama is blaming on sequesters in prospective.
Obama should remind us of the Aga Khan, who was given his weight in gold from time to time. Squandering Americas wealth is part of the dreams of Obamas communist Muslim father. It is one way of killing the Devil America which was considered by Bamas daddy to be an evil colonial power.
It all fits together. Put American so far in debt that no war will be necessary to bring a once great country to its knees. He talks out of both sides of his mouth, too. On the one hand, we must sequester and symbolically cut off White House Tours. On the other hand, we must send his daughter to South America for spring break.
One thing is certain. Obama will not be remembered fondly.
Is it not Congress that appropriates the money to spend?
Thanks for not insulting current and former US Navy folks. I suppose king hussein will need to cut back since he’s “giving back” 5% of his salary. Awwww. Isn’t that just so special? I guess when you don’t have to pay for anything and someone else (US!) is picking up the tab, you can appear benevolent. But we know it’s really “malevolent”.
Yep.
Specifically, the currently-GOP-controlled House of Representatives.
Caesar’s Roman (DHS) Soldiers will not fight for promises...they must be fed - something.
Drunken king?
More like “angry wife who’s trying to spend her husband into bankruptcy before she divorces him”.
Didn’t you get the memo?...

Take yer pick, same results.
Nero overlooks from a distance as Rome burns. In a great show of magnanimity, Caesar Nero drew upon what some claimed were his own funds, but then laid ruinous taxes upon the subjects of the outlying provinces, eventually rebuilding much of the central part of Rome with wide avenues and of more fire-resistant construction.
Much like the Reichstag fire in the early years of the Nazi regime in Germany, the fire was likely set by some member of the Caesar’s royal entourage, and the blame shifted to the nearest handy scapegoat, to the Christians of the time, justifying his endless persection and tyrannical suppression of the sect.
Except that the real story is so muddied it shall never be properly reconciled by historians.
The tale that Nero played upon the lyre and sang as Rome burned may only have been a rumor. But in retrospect, it seems very highly plausible.
$668 Billion spent on 126 Federal Anti Poverty programs and we still have 50 million people on Food Stamps....http://conservativebyte.com/2013/04/126-federal-anti-poverty-programs/
Malibu home of Ivory Coast dictator's son.
The oil-rich Ivory Coast has one of the worst human rights records in Africa whose rulers are accused of funneling millions of public monies into their own pockets. But now it looks like the son of the dictator----Teodoro---whose worldcomprised yachts, Bugattis, and Michael Jackson memorabiliacould come crashing down, according to Foreign Policy (via Curbed).
Foreign Policy's Ken Silverstein reported that after a four-year investigation into alleged extortion and laundering of $100 million in the US and "theft of public funds, or other corrupt conduct" back at home, the Justice Department has filed notice of a lawsuit involving the possible seizure of Tedoro's California mansion, and other assets.
And French investigators just seized millions of dollars' worth of his sports cars, while the Spanish government is investigating the entire Obiang clan. Teodoro reportedly hasn't spent much time stateside recently, in part thanks to various legal actions against him.
Just a peek inside the insane world of Teodoro---he first came to the U.S. to attend Pepperdine University in Malibu. While tuition cost just $3,400, he managed to blow through $50,000 in the first five months before dropping out. Source: Business insier--LA Weekly.
Teodoro is listed as the owner of this $35 million mansion on the Malibu coast, which he paid for in cash. It was the most expensive home sold in California in 2006, and has a tennis court, swimming pool and 4-hole golf course.
Teodoro's on the government payroll as "minister of agriculture and forestry," and supposedly makes just $5,000 per month. But his Malibu home contains $60,000 worth of rugs, a $58,000 home theater and a $1,734 pair of wine glasses.
RICH-HATERS IN THE WH The Ohaha's say they hate the rich---but the O's know how to spend OPM. The family blew $1.4B on travel and entertainment for themselves and their numerous personal staffs last year: that's 2000 times more than what the entire British Royal Family cost the UK ($57.8M)----$27 million bucks a week is only the tip of the iceberg:
White House sources claim Michelle (with a staff of 24) went through $10M of taxpayer money last year on just her own private trips and shopping sprees, with one calling the First Lady's self-indulgent spending orgy -including extravagant massages, top-shelf booze, and five-star hotels 'disgusting'.
NRO tallied what taxpayers are paying for the Ohaha's living in the White House: $1.4 billion per year: Air Force One ($181,757 per hour), executive chef ($100,000 per year), three full-time White House calligraphers ($ 277,050 per year for the trio), chief of staff to the presidents dog ($102,000 per year), Ohaha's royal motorcade ($2.2 million).
==========================================
$1.4 BILLION is the current annual cost of the White House just in household expenses, not including US policy operations for which the WH exists--administered by some 900 parasites---policy staff recruited by Ohaha.
Annually, Ohaha vacations cost $20 million (the low estimate for Ohaha's Hawaii vacay was $4 million, but the true cost is probably five times that); the first familys yearly health-care costs are $7 million; more than $6 million is spent on the White House grounds each year. Transportation costs were a staggering $346 million last year.
===========================================
The O' kids were flying aroound to the Bahamas and Sun Valley.....while US kids were shut out of the WH supposedly due to sequestration Secret Service cutbacks. The O's galivanting teen daughter was spotted in NYC last week---with girlfriends---dining at the pricey Buddakan, scoffing up rock shrimp, edamame dumplings, short ribs, lobster fried rice........replete w/ five Secret Service guards dining nearby, while students her age were denied access to the people's house.
Buddakan.
Bingo. Every damn dime of government spending has to start in the House. Don’t like it? Then vote them out. We all get the chance every other November. Take advantage of it.
Wrong, Obama is spending money like a Mad King.
