No, they are the same ages as my children and they would love to have a swing set.

Nothing’s too good for Obama and his pals, as long as we pay for it.

Yes, I would, and especially considering the status of our economy.

I wonder if that’s some of Obama’s new stock market swings? They only go one way - down.

That’s a cool swing-set and all, but it just seems a bit tacky to me to put it up at the White House, which is not exacty a McMansion in the suburbs. It’s the seat of power for the free world for God’s sake!!! At least for the moment. What’s next, velvet Elvis on the walls?

It doesn’t count if dad doesn’t build it and the construction doesn’t involve at least two trips to the hardware store for tools and parts.

Even if he bought it himself, there are those who would argue (stupidly) that since he receives a federal salary, tax dollars paid for it.

Quite frankly, what if we did? My first response was to agree with you, but then I did a little history checking, remembering that Nixon had a bowling alley installed in the WH.
Nixon is always and for ever tagged as the epitome of evil by the left, correct? But what do we find at the link?:
President and Mrs. Nixon, both avid bowlers, had a new one-lane alley built (paid for by friends) in an underground workspace area
So apparently Nixon thought enough of his position and power to not burden taxpayers with such frivolities.
Now a swing set is cheap compared to a bowling alley, but I would be willing to bet that neither the anointed one, or his friends, paid dime one for this.

You may be on to something, doing some digging but in DC, any playgrounds on public land require a ‘poured-in-place rubber safety surface’.
