[Cincinatus' Wife]

More: "Washington, DC-- Keeping his promise to his wife for a belated celebration, on Saturday President Obama escorted First Lady Michelle Obama to a private twentieth wedding anniversary dinner at the chic, upscale Bourbon Steak restaurant in Georgetown. The First Couple's special day was on Wednesday, the night of the first Presidential Debate, and they made up for the delay with a two-hour dinner that began at 7:36 PM. The fete followed a day of seclusion for the President at the White House, his first full day at home in a week. Executive Chef Adam Sobel created a special multi-course feast for the First Couple, offering some dishes that aren't on Bourbon Steak's seasonal American cuisine menu."

Georgetown Four Seasons Bourbon Steak House dinner menu

Was there someone looking back across the table at Michelle? Was someone sitting in the chair?

[Credit Michael Kleinberg] - The new Bourbon Steak restaurant in Georgetown’s Four Seasons Hotel has become a big draw on the D.C. circuit: former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev dined on the same night; Brad Pitt, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones have been spotted there as well.

So much for “sacrifice.”

The dictator and his wife live it up on our money, while we go on food stamps and eat hamburger.

These two are pigs.

Was Obama stoned the same way he was stoned during the POTUS debate??? Two evil, horrible, hate America people!!! I see this low life Muslim Obama dining and celebrating with his wife, and then I see the four slaughtered and murdered bodies of our murdered Ambassador to Libya, two brave Navy seals and a fine intelligence officer, all killed because of a lack of support and care from the Obama White House!!! These people should not be celebrated, respected, they should be thrown out of office in disgrace and failure to our country!!!

The REAL reason why they are laughing...

Ha ha ha .... Spreading the Misery Around : $ 5.35 a gallon ? Live with it Americans...

[tinamina]

I haven’t looked at the menu but my first thought was: How much did it cost US to shut down the whole elite hotel and the IN restaurant/bar to acommodate the Obama date?

How much more did we have to pay for this sham, I mean?

I wonder how much we all sacrificed to have these people act out this sham infomercial...all for a photo opp with stupid ice cream cups and neither looks impressed with each other, let alone intimate?

[tinamina]

Also...did GWB and Laura do this? Did Clinton and Hillary? Does anyone have an example of blatant anniversary use of government resources to give the special couple this type of treatment?

[dalereed]

I think we ordered pizza from Pizza Hut delivered on our 20th, it’s hard to remember, that was 34 years ago.

Now, now everyone......give these people a break. It’s not like there’s a whole kitchen staff of accomplished chefs at the White House or anything ....../s

So Mooch is going for the 1950s ice cream shop look, eh? Yeah, that'll romanticize the election and get your phony husband some votes, MO.

But you'll never, ever look as nice as Ann Romney, hon.

No wonder the article didn’t have pictures.

Do they clear the restaurant of other patrons for this event?
My guess is ‘yes’.

[Zakeet]

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama finally celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary on Saturday - a romantic night on the town that came three days late after being pre-empted by a high-stakes presidential debate.

Actually, the Royal Moo was so steamed at the Royal Idiot's debate performance and the likelihood that she would be tossed out of Castle Royal ... that it took three days before she would even speak to the slob.

For our 10th anniversary there was no night out, no restaurant, no party. We had three children under 5 and were milking cows and farming full time.

DH bought me a coffee cup with a farm scene on it.

I still have it.

For our last anniversary we went on a family trip to Florida.

I think we are better off than the Obamas. Feel sorry for the kids.

[libertylover]

Did Michelle actually eat steak? I thought she was more the seaweed and brocolli type.

[bgill]

Seriously? $10 for a spoonful of creamed corn or spinach or baked beans or a potato? Who pays $10 for creamed corn? Bully for the restaurant owner if he can scam the customers but he’s got some truly stuuuupid customers.

[layman]

Romney offered his congratulations and joked to Obama," I'm sure this was the most romantic place you could imagine, here with me."

Romney might have been closer to the truth than he knows.
