Is it wrong for me to wish Obama’s bus gets run into a ditch? Wouldn’t that be a photo op for the ages?

If Obama was asked to define the words ‘thrift’ and ‘frugal’, you'd get a blank stare.

Much ado about nothing. Not much money in the great scheme of things

Aye, there's the rub. That's $2.2M, for 3 days' use. That's the complete federal tax payments of ~220 families - people who, if told "your entire 2011 federal tax payment was blown by the Obama campaign on using a bus for 20 minutes" they'd be, um, irritated.

And that's the point of the late "debt ceiling" debacle: an endless litany of such little "oh, that's not much money in the great scheme of things" adding up to >$1T we don't have.

I wanted to see what the ‘back of a bus’ looked like.

That was awesome - never have used public transportation in my life. Have always been carried on other folks’ shoulders.

You know, like a king.

This bus didn't cost the taxpayers a dime.

I hope she doesn't. I don't want my President showing up on a business class Jet Blue flight. I just hope she uses it a little more judiciously than the idiot in the WH now i.e.; going to date night in Chi Town.
