Because, says the White House, Obama is doing his job as chief executive, engaging with the American people. Republicans call the tour a campaign trip, but is it politics or business as usual?
President Obama this week is hopscotching through politically vital Midwest states on a big black bus and holding town hall meetings on the economy. To the White House, it is business as usual, the sort of national listening tour that sitting chief executives do all the time. But Republican leaders say it’s politics, and they say it’s something taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to fund.

What did we expect from a communists black Muslim? Won the lottery and will probably cost us a trillion for parties, trips around the world, vacations, golf, etc, by the time we vote him out.

That big-black-pimp-mobile should inspire lots of voters, and hopefully scare the bajeebahs out of them.

Bus should be Commie RED as in red ink with a half moon with a sickle handle and a hammer crossed through it.
To: Logical me
A million bucks for a bus that will also be used by future non communist non muhammedam Presidents seems like not too bad a deal.
Of course in this climate why the douchebag in chief would even be doing a bus tour on a brand new souped up ghetto bus is incomprehensible, but then this foreign jackass doesn't understand American values and sense of decorum.

We taxpayers had to pay $1.2 million each for the two armored buses he is using for this campaign trip. Why were the buses bought and why didn’t he use the armored limos already available as part of the presidential fleet? This was billed as a 4 day junket so buying buses must mean he has additional plans involving buses.

Yes it’s something taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to fund.
But then again he forces taxpayers to fund his golf, vacation trips and his family.
With all the security, hand maidens, hair dressers, and who knows what else.
