The dude going on any vacation he can afford is not “thumbing his nose at America’s middle class”, that’s lefty talk.
What I want to know is by whom, and how, are the appropriations for all of Obama’s recreational activities determined.
It seems to me that his salary of $400K ought to cover his vacations. Running the White House (chow, etc) is a reasonable separate appropriation.
But the First Family has expenses running in excess of $100 million/year, courtesy of the Republican House, and THAT is grossly unreasonable.
Does anyone know where in the Federal budget or other appropriations structure this money is located?
Budget? What Budget? We no need no stinkin budget!
