Do you think any SS agents will be on duty (and maybe some overtime) guarding the President, First Lady and all their guests?<br /><br />Gotta have your priorities straight, I guess!Mike aka Proofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08931553845065187278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774510750415512728.post-53835370206623943212013-03-11T01:17:45.494-04:002013-03-11T01:17:45.494-04:00Proof, I've been reading-up on personal expens...Proof, I've been reading-up on personal expenses that our presidents are responsible for. They are to pay for all of their food, their vacations, their travel unless it's tied to business. If it's both, a portion is charged to them. They do not have to pay for living in the White House, but they do have to pay for personal staff.<br /><br />How could he pay $900,000+ to play golf with Tiger Woods? He's not that wealthy. How can they pay for this birthday bash? I understand that Adele and Beyonce will donate their talents, but what about the rest - the staff, the food, the champagne? It should be completely added to their balance sheet. I know that isn't happening. It's happened too many times - unless the feds keep a special press running dedicated completely to the Obama family. <br /><br />Maggie@MaggiesNotebook<br />http://maggiesnotebook.comMaggie Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01681328690482778919noreply@blogger.com
