I find that interesting, too.
What I find disgusting is how he preached that it is "time for Americans to tighten their belts," yet he can take Michelle out for "date night" in NYC to the tune of a $24,000 cost to US taxpayers, and a $50K/week vacation in Martha's Vineyard. I said it before, I wonder what the carbon footprint of that estate is?
Come on, Barry. At least make your campaign hyperbole somewhat believable. Do you what you say, not what you do I guess. Especially while your wife plants the official White House vegetable garden (and visited a homeless shelter) in $500+ shoes. She also just enjoyed a lavish European vacation with the girls
on our dime. Now on to the Vineyard. How's that belt feel?
Remember this while he was campaigning in Ohio? :
“
And that’s why I’m not going to stand here and simply tell you what I’m going to spend, I’m going to tell you how we’re going to save when I’m president. I’ll do what you do in your own family budgets. You got to tighten your belt. You make sure you’re spending money wisely. The government needs to do the same thing."
I'll do what you do in your own family budgets. Wow.
