I see a conflict of interest that we pay for Michelle’s food yet she was basically a lobbyist for her hospital

We’re not paying for Michelle’s food. The President pays for the food he and his family eat.

Pfah, I only tip people that give good service. This is the White House under the Obama administration.

I wonder whether when union leaders are invited to the White House, will Obama make them pay for their own dinners? Many of them are wealthy well beyond Obama’s definition of the term.

Or, if free dinners versus “pay for your own” dinners are based on what party you are in. Hmmmmmmm, I wonder….

serious breach of protocol

In this administration? No, never, perish the thought.

You can take Barack Obama out of the ‘hood… but you can’t take the ‘hood out of Barack Obama.

The guy is so low rent. I will never ever comprehend how he baffled an entire country with his transparent bull$hit. Maybe it’s because I’ve always refused to drink the tap water so I never did, nor do. He should be selling Sham-Wows, or icecubes to Eskimo’s. I’m just gobsmacked.

But like White House damage-control specialist Eric Dezenhall said himself, “Obama’s gift is making gimmicks look visionary.”

If I were one of them, I would have declined to give my card and just said, “Put it on my TARP”

ROTFLMAO. Crying too because it is almost true.

Thanks :) It’s better to laugh than cry if you can help it, but it ain’t always easy!

Just the tip, just for a second, just to see how it feels

Someone who knows how needs to start some FOIA requests for the list of people Obama has invited to dine at the White House. The next request would then be for the lists of people he has billed for those meals. Michelle’s invites should be looked at also.

My guess is some union officials would show up on guest lists, especially from the UAW and SEIU.

I wonder; does he bill the people he has over for the weekly entertainment parties? Lots of snacks and drinks consummed there.

Not how do they tip, but who do they tip. Is there a hat check too? He is creating jobs.

These are campaign contributions in disguise. There is no other way they funds can be classified.

If Obama is charging his ‘guests’ for meals, then isn’t he running a restaurant without a license?

I just wonder if they have a valid sales tax id#. If so, I would like an audit of their quarterly payments.

You do realize that Barak Hussein probably OWNS your credit card company, don’t you?

Do you think that Obama has the right idea in making his guests pay for their food

Better idea: Make The Bamster pay for his food... and his excursions to NYC, Paris, etc. Where's your credit card, Barry?
