Apparently Barry-O isn't as concerned about the responsible use of taxpayer money, at least not when it interferes with his parties. This guy is without a doubt the Paris Hilton of presidents.
His latest shenanigans have him in Williamsburg, Va., where the Democrat members of the House were meeting. Now, since they all have offices in Washington, D.C., and we have all paid for numerous well-appointed meeting spaces there, why spend money meeting in Virginia? I know, I know, some apologist will point out that this meeting was likely bankrolled by rich Democrat supporters (who given recent track records likely have evaded taxes). However, the Prez got there on Marine One and according to at least one article, Air Force One. That seems like a major waste of money to me.
These banks need to stop wasting all this TARP money, Barry has some parties he needs to throw!

Our newly elected president, so distraught over the misuse of TARP funds, yesterday instituted an executive pay cap. This concern for taxpayer money, however, has its limits – and apparently the line is drawn short of the Super Bowl.
That's right, and according to Fred Upton (R, 6th District) it is one heck of a party. He told the Shrew (Mitch Albom for those not from Detroit) on Monday's radio show that Barry had quite a spread going at his latest party. And, funded by you and me. Strangely, my invitation to the party was lost in the mail. Luckily, those who dutifully represent us were more than happy to go in our stead.
If I hear the king proclaim to be a champion of the people one more time during the day, while tossing taxpayer funded parties at night, I very well may throw up.
P.S. - Hey Fred – glad you feel important for being invited, but you should have declined.

Not a week has passed since the latest holier-than-thou rant over the TARP-funded bonuses going to Wall Street Execs, Obama showed the world how to party with taxpayer money -- AIG style. Michelle, fire up the grill, we have us some company coming over.
Fresh off his $150M coronation, King Barack saw he had no support from Republicans for his pork-laden “stimulus” bill. So he did as any American would and held himself a little BBQ dinner party. You think they served burgers? Heck no, taxpayers were footing the bill for this shindog, so they splurged (oddly enough, not on pork though -- guess it wasn't a theme party). Along with the usual highfalutin hours dourves, they grilled up some Waygu steaks.
Never heard of Waygu beef? Join the crowd. I actually learned of it on Iron Chef – it is a rare, and expensive form of Kobe beef. A single 16 ounce steak often costs in the neighborhood of $120. At that price, the guests best have hit the heights of ecstasy on every bite. To top off party, vodka tonics, the choice of drink of our new king, were also served.
Dear Wall Street, how dare you spend taxpayer money on…umm….hmmm….excuse…me….I was choking on my $35 bite of steak.
And so it goes in our Union. Just think, for the price of a single steak, he could have kept his promise to this woman to pay for her gas….
Until we meet again.
