WH Shuts Down Public Tours, Invites Adele, Beyonce to Michelle's 50th

President Barack Obama and Michelle used to talk frequently about how the White House was the “people’s house.” In fact, the White House website now carries this quote from the First Lady: “It’s the ‘People’s House.’ It’s a place that is steeped in history, but it’s also a place where everyone should feel welcome. And that’s why my husband and I have made it our mission to open up the house to as many people as we can.”

So much for that nonsense. The same week that President Obama’s administration announced that due to sequestration, White House tours would be cancelled, sources at the White House announced that it would be hosting megastars Adele and Beyonce at Michelle’s 50th birthday party next year. “America’s First Lady will be holding a huge celebrity-packed party for her birthday at the White House next year and, as she adores Adele and Beyonce, she has asked them both to sing,” the source told the UK Daily Mail. The source did say that “The Obamas will pay Adele’s expenses as it’s a private party, not a State one.”

But will they pay all the expenses of the party? Security arrangements? Food? Cleanup? White House parties are expensive affairs.

It’s obvious that the White House’s priorities don’t lie with the people. They lie with the personal party predilections of the Obamas.

Michelle doesn’t want the children of filthy plebs ruining her high roller birthday party.

According to Bill Maher, I’m crazy for not finding this endearing...

Would love to see a documentary or some educational advertising from a conservative perspective to show how the Obama’s treat themselves at taxpayer expense, while denying legitimate national needs. It should include an examination of the corruption of the Office of Management and Budget. Our poor nation is constantly humiliated by this crook regime.

I remember Adele coming out against taxes and not afraid to smoke. I had a slim chance she may have some of our leanings, I guess not. I already written off the other hoochie trollop, oh well I guess it is time to right off Adele too...

She might just "respect the Office". I mean if she were invited, and turned it down, would that have been a good career move?

Remember when Harry Reid said he could smell the tourists (who are paying for his fat salary and perks)?

Does Harry Reid think he always smells like perfume?
