    Got Greed?

    While Americans go Hungry and without Jobs.....The Obama Family is living a life of Luxury more expensive than even the most evil and greedy CEO in the world could fathom......and We The Starving and Bankrupt People are the ones footing the bill.

    Coming from a Lying Sh'tcago scumbag who promised to go through the Federal Budget line by line....who promised to cut the (D)eficit in half by the end of his first term......

    ......yeah the Obamas are clearly setting an example and really cutting back in these bankrupt economic times.

    I wonder if that old greedy 1% Mitt Romney has a 24/7 Movie Projectionist living with him......or if Mitt pays $100,000/yr to have his roof riding Dog groomed and manicured......

    ....because the Obamas do. Moving on up.......

    Errrrr, they don't run the UK, they sit there and look pretty. Your president runs the most influential country ion the world, during the most difficult time in modern history. He needs advisors? Yeas, he might, considering his job...

    Total Cost of Wars started by GWB Since 2001
    http://costofwar.com/
    $1,377,168,902,200 and counting.

    1.4 billion for Obama seems tiny in comparison.

    Why don't you guys actually worry about the bigger things?

    And here's the money spent on the War On Drugs this Year

    Federal $11,193,345,256
    State $19,078,415,148
    Total $30,271,777,627

    At this point you just have to laugh at the poor conservatives and their desperation.
    The lies, the spin, more lies the utter Bull (*)(*)(*)(*) they swallow and then puke out as truth, it's very sad but amusing at the same time.

    Is there any evidence that this is out of proportion to any other US President in modern history?

    To be fair, the govt should provide another AF1 for Romney to campaign with.

    Do you have any evidence that this is out of the norm for the cost of staffing the White House?

    From the article......

    Gray told The Daily Caller that the $1.4 billion spent on the Obama family last year is the “total cost of the presidency,” factoring the cost of the “biggest staff in history at the highest wages ever,” a 50 percent increase in the numbers of appointed czars and an Air Force One “running with the frequency of a scheduled air line.”

    Would you expect anythign else.....From the biggest looter in world history....From the most expensive President in world history?

    Nothing's too good for King Obama!

    Wonder if he's got an aide to switch channels from basketball to golf? Surely he can't push the buttons by himself.

    Oh boy,some dudes book from the dailycaller. That seems legit.


    There is an awful lot of "it has been reported" and "it is estimated" in this article. It's just a bunch of bull(*)(*)(*)(*).

    Even if the number is inflated, nobody can deny that this president has spent more on himself and his family than any other in history. To say otherwise is to show just how blind or dishonest some people are.

    But the board idiots will continue to clamour for their disrespect of their president. Filthy really.

    You can start by providing some facts to back up your claims, then we can discuss it.

    Obama and Michelle's obscene spending is just South side Chicago trailer trash gone wild. At the taxpayer expense I might add.

    ....even King Obama admits to having 468 servants.

    When bush had the biggest staff in history right before Obama had the biggest staff in history, can I assume that you condemned him with similar vitriol and hate and that you also said that he "bilked" America and deserved to be removed from office in 2004?

    Will you continue these condemnations when Romney has the largest and most expensive staff in history?
