Change You Can Waste
According to ABC’s Jake Tapper, the snacks that were served at last night's Kegger at the White House were not exactly chips and dip.
Hors d'œuvres -- chicken curry, wagyu steak -- will be served in addition to drinks.
President Obama, it should be noted, is not a particularly big drinker, though he has been known to enjoy a vodka martini time and again.
Malkin brings us this:
- Yeah, “wagyu steak.” $100 per serving delicacy. I had to look it up, too.
And here we were lobbying for pigs in a blanket to celebrate the Pork Spending Act of 2009!
"The cost of our debt is one of the fastest growing expenses in the federal budget. This rising debt is a hidden domestic enemy, robbing our cities and states of critical investments in infrastructure like bridges, ports, and levees; robbing our families and our children of critical investments in education and health care reform; robbing our seniors of the retirement and health security they have counted on."
--Barack Obama, Speech in the U.S. Senate, March 13, 2006
President Obama has been a strong advocate for sound budget practices and the reduction of wasteful spending in Washington.
Really? Change? Really?
