I briefly heard on the news something to the effect that they were going to cut the White House golfing budget. Ouch, now that hurts.
On a serious note, before anybody takes any pay cut, ALL Congressional and Executive perks need to be abolished. And any Senator, Congressperson, President that squanders taxpayer money while others are being furloughed and taking pay cuts should be held accountable.
it will indeed be interesting to see if there are any cutbacks to expensive dates with the orangutan, golf, and vacations. I say he waits a few months, then does it anyway since he doesn't give a damn about re-election
Tuesday, March 05, 2013 The sight of First Daughter Malia Obama at a dinner this weekend with her friends prompted one spy to describe the meal as a âyoung girlâs social power club gathering.â On Saturday night, President Obamaâs elder daughter, 14, was spotted at giant Chelsea restaurant Buddakan with eight of her friends, including a daughter of New York Giants chairman Steve Tisch. According to witnesses, the girls were chaperoned by four parents and five security guards who dined at the table directly next to them. âThis place is so hipâ while they dined on rock shrimp, edamame dumplings, short ribs, lobster fried rice and noodles. An Obama rep didnât get back to us.
