Barry O. has slammed the door of OUR White House on us, and placed an entrance of admission price tag of $500,000 to get in. Sad story here: http://thedcpost.com/?p=25331 [/quote] The White House is only a house. A dwelling. If you want a tour, look on the internet. This dwelling houses the man that has our President and his family. Respect the decision, instead of judging. [/quote] Our tax dollars built that house and keep it operating. American citizens own that fucking house. [/quote] Stop with the fake outrage. How much was it costing every week to keep the tours running. You wouldn't be opening your mouth if this was Bush in the White House and you know that's 100% true. [/quote] You ask how much? [i]$74,000 in estimated savings from closing the White House to public tours[/i] http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/03/14/slow-painful-climb-down-on-white-house-tours/ Since Mr Obama cares SO MUCH for the people he's representing, I'm sure he could easily donate those funds out of his $400,000 a year salary. After all, others made far less and donated far more to benefit the American people that they chose to represent. http://blog.timesunion.com/payitforward/charitable-u-s-presidents/1688/ [i]George Washington (term 1789-1797) refused to accept a salary.[/i] 1789 - $25,000. [i]Herbert Hoover (1929-1933) donated all of his presidential salary to charity, and was the first of all presidents to donate his salary to charity.[/i] 1909 - $75,000. [i]John F. Kennedy (1961-1963) donated his salary to charity[/i]. 1949 - $100,000. [i]Barack Obama’s (2008-present) largest contributions to charity have been $50,000 to CARE, a poverty-based organization, and the United Negro College Fund.[/i] 2001 - $400,000. http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0875856.html How should I say it, actions speak louder than words? I guess once upon a time there actually were Americans who understood what it meant to be a 'public servant' [/quote]
