That's the same half who checks the balance on their SNAP card using their Obamaphones. Nothing he says or does short of taking that away will matter to them.

Sad, but true.

It is merely posturing in an attempt to make the effects of sequestration as public as possible. No matter how unaffected they would have been.
This is the same guy that lied about Capital Hill janitors taking a pay cut...

Having tours of the White House is symbolic in that it shows the world that the home of our leader is not a king's castle or dictator's mansion. It shows that it's still accessible by the people. As stupid as it sounds, ending tours is still bullshit.

Good. Shows he can't even keep his own house in order...LITERALLY. I hope everyone who wants to visit the Obama White House learns a lesson.

Not gonna visit a ban state anyway.

I thought it was illegal to close off the White House from the public?

A disgusting political ploy, designed to illustrate (or exaggerate?) the impact of the sequester.

Don't the forget the golf trips. I read somewhere that the current operational cost of Air Force One is just under $180,000 per hour. Add the cost of shutting down airports, airspace, roads & highways; plus the escort fighters, support aircraft, support vehicles, local LE support just so he can play a round of golf with likes of Tiger Woods.

I suspect that closing down White House Tours should about cover the cost of those trips. :rolleyes:

saw on the news that the GOP is going to try to stop funding for his golf trips till the WH reopens for public !!!


I agree with Britt Hume this is the first president that instead of trying to calm the public is trying to put massive fear in the public over something that is not even real ? since they have more money than last year but they still call it a cut !!!!

I wish I got those big of cuts !!!!

Which as far as Im concerned is a totally impeachable offense considering he as the sitting president is using his clout and authority to not protect the liberties and livelihood of Americans but is instead trying to harm them.

Just imagine if Dubya had done this. It would be the lead story on every channel and on the front pages of every paper for months and months and months. It would never be forgotten and would be brought up at every opportunity to remind us of how evil Dubya and Dick were.

This is why I stopped listening to American newspapers and television years ago. I don't miss it at all. The current POTUS has presided over high unemployment, a stagnant economy, the downgrading of our credit rating and closed off the White House to the plebes, the hoi polloi, and the peasants and yet he is given a pass.

If you give enough "free" shit to the right groups of Americans you can do anything you want.

that A-Hole was almost 4 hours late getting to AF1 after "golfing" with Tiger and its only a 10 minute drive from on ramp to off ramp to his plane.

Some of the busiest roads in West Palm were closed off while he took his time. Barry coulda visited the damn turtles at Gumo Limbo and flew out at 10pm, but he was supposed to leave during rush hour!
