While the GOP and Democrats fight over pennies once again, the rhetoric is heating up. Now Obama is feeling the heat after forbidding White House tours for the public. Now Obama is offering to give back 5% of his salary, which adds up to about $16,000.
Of course, he seemed to cut the announcment short, presumably because he was on his way to another $100,000 golfing vacation. 😛
I just can't stand politics anymore. These demagogues make me physically ill.
Originally posted by whodeyPresident Obama giving back a small percentage of his pay in these economic times, sets a good example that I hope other lawmakers will follow. Yes...I'm sure there were some poitical points he wanted to score here, but I think this was a good deed. Oh....by the way, please explain to us all how President Obama's golf vacations cost $100,000, and how these golf vacations differ from those of other Presidents??
