Default Party on dude

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/?pageId=90945

not concerned with the market, the country slipping into a depression, wagging his finger at wall street types for their excesses, but none of that stops our great savior from living it up at the White House.

lets recap how great this guy is at lavishly blowing the money of others;
1) campaign raises nearly a billion dollars, and spends it.

2) accepts nomination in Denver in a football stadium with a modest 75,000 in attendance and a Hollywood style production including the now-infamous greek columns.

3) Has gigantic election night rally in Chicago, another elaborate production

4) Has largest most expensive innaugaration in history by far.

now it comes out that he and Michelle are having party after party at the White House, and it sounds like they spare no expense either. well that is until it comes to giving gifts to the leader of our closest ally.

what a man of the people.

"An organization that serves as a watchdog on the U.S. government for American taxpayers has launched a campaign to uncover exactly how much tax money is being spent on parties at the Obama White House. "

"Klayman said the reports of the partying at the White House, "with the likes of Steve Wonder and other high priced entertainment stars," will be the focus of document requests being submitted to the General Services Administration. The requests will seek to determine how much taxpayer money is being used. "

"Barack and Michelle Obama have been throwing taxpayer funded parties nearly every night with their 'friends' and supporters, with Michelle Obama even exhorting them not to 'break' White House property," Klayman's announcement said.

"This party atmosphere sends the wrong message to the American people. As the Obama-Clinton crowd party on, the American people are suffering greatly," Klayman said.


Insiders said in the report that the Obama social schedule is busier than any other previous occupants of the White House.

"We haven't seen this kind of entertaining in a really long time," Dee Dee Myers, former White House press secretary to Bill Clinton, said in the report

Wow. The details of that article say six parties (including the Super Bowl party, the inaugaration night party for the kids) since they were elected.

Yeah. Four parties over two months. That's some serious "Party after party" action.

Considering the George Bush's never went out - virtually never - yeah, I'd expect the White House is indeed hopping by comparison

King Obama has been quick to judge how companies spend their own $, but refuses to hold himself accountable for his spending. In fact shouldn't we question government more than any one since that is our tax dollars he is spending. He states no pork in the stimulus,etc and he is going thru the budget line by line to make sure we are not wasting money. Now all politicians lie, but he is getting down right ridiculous. Wednesday night parties have been a regular occurance at the whitehouse. As the unemployment rate is above 8% and we are in a depression and more than half of the wealth in america has evaporated since he won the election should there really be any partying going on in the whitehouse? What is there to celebrate right now? The downfall of capitalism? Are you saying that it is ok to blow Millions on parties at the whitehouse, especially in times like these? He critized legimate profitable business for rewarding everyday employees who helped make their company profitable by making them cancel trips, etc.; but he can spend our money irresponsibly. Wouldn't that $ be spent better on something else? Also, it has been said in many articles that Obama is like a boy who got a new toy with Air Force 1. So much for reducing pollution and being for the environment...

OK, show me. Show me where he's refused to account for any of the money collected by his campaign?

You are entitled to know where your tax dollars go. That article included alot of stuff that isn't your tax dollars, btw. Did you bother to notice that? That nearly all of what that article talked about has nothing to do with your tax dollars? What do you want "accounted for", particularly?

Really? Have a source for that?

So you didn't pay any attention to what he has done specifically for the environment and pollution within the past five days?

Didn't say campaign dollars. How he spends campaign contributions is up to him and the democratic party. But what I don't get is how he is spending our tax money? Who do you think pays for these parties? Do you think he cuts a check out of his own pocket? Do you think a Wednesday night get together at the whitehouse for 180 including all the security etc, needed is a wise way to waste $ right now? While an uprecedented number of americans have homes in foreclosure and are lining up at the unemployment line our President is having a party on our dime.

How about wasteful spending on Lavish Whitehouse parties to start?

Here is one that I found within seconds. I have heard this from numerous sources on the radio
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php...show_article=1

I am sorry you are right here. He is totally for the environment. Sure he tossed some money into some governement programs and initiatives. Yeah he wants to pass cap and trade. It all makes sense.

Wow - to quote your "source" on that, we have three Wednesday receptions - ohmygawd, three! - such as, "... the foot-stomping sounds of Sweet Honey in the Rock, a female a cappella group, filled the East Room for a Black History Month program first lady Michelle Obama held for nearly 200 sixth- and seventh-graders from around the city."

Yeah. That's some hard wild partying and outrageous lavish spending.

No, that's not it.
