t's being reported that Adele and Beyonce have been booked to rock The White House on Michelle Obama's 50th birthday. That should be some party . . .

It's hard to believe that the politics of the sequester have worked out the way the Obama administration intended. Even their usually-reliable friends in the media have been skeptical, as this report from ABC News demonstrates:

Budget Cuts Shut Down White House Tours

Jonathan Karl concluded the report by noting that the President took a 20-car motorcade to travel a short distance to eat with Republicans -- and suggested that next time he save money by eating at home.

It seems to me that it's time that Republicans pointed out the many, many ways The White House could manage to reallocate funds to allow the American people to visit their White House. The President and Mrs. Obama have enjoyed to the fullest every perquisite of their rank; with that enjoyment should come some scrutiny, especially in a time when regular tourists are being told that there simply isn't a dime to spare on something for them, the taxpayers who subsidize it all.

I really believe Moochelle took the first excuse to kick the rabble out of “Her” house. She thinks she is royalty and the entire media, fashion magazines, you name it, have fed into the idea of crowning her Empress MO.

She could care less if a school kid gets to see the White House.

Interesting though...I have not seen her face on a magazine in many, many months; with the exception of some of the black oriented ones. I think she doesn’t sell. And the magazines are all about sales.

And doesn’t that say something. People don’t like them. I still believe the election was stolen.

The cost of White House tours, an estimated $18,000 a day. Too expensive for Obama’s tastes.

But what is the cost of Moochelle’s birthday bash? I am guessing more than enough public funds to keep tours going in the White House every weekday for over a year.

So when there is a cost estimate of this birthday party, be sure to divide it by $18,000.

The point is, it it not his house. It is the People's House, which means it is our House

One of the reasons he thinks it is his house is he stole the election and the house goes with it.

This should be televised on a major network so that the American people can have a little enjoyment in these tough “Obama times”.

Apparently, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan do NOT believe the election was stolen. Remember back on Labor Day how Romney and Ryan were “just rarin’ to put up a fight”. Never happened; too cowardly to challenge the people’s choice

Really though, why would anyone want to tour the very limited White House area with Obama there anyway?

It’s really sad; especially since I haven’t the foggiest notion of who Adele is. :)

Most probably don’t or have never heard her sing, like I for example

She’s an overweight singer. I wonder if Michelle will let her have a slice of cake.

If not; she will sneak the whole cake out. But Moochelle is probably keeping an eye on all the food; except the healthy stuff. LOL
