The Republican National Committee filed a formal complaint with the Government Accountability Office Wednesday, accusing the Obama administration of using taxpayer funds to campaign on President Obama's recent trip to three swing states, despite White House claims President Obama was giving speeches at official events.
"Throughout his administration, but particularly in recent weeks, President Obama has been passing off campaign travel as "official events," thereby allowing taxpayers, rather than his campaign, to pay for his reelection efforts," the complaint letter by RNC Chairman Reince Priebus read.

Of course, we can rely on the
Obama Department of Injustice to investigate this.
Maybe the House should start Impeachment Proceedings if the abuse escalates. The Senate will not do anything with such an impeachment, but at least it would force the Lame-Stream Media to report it...

This is a joke. The evil bastard gets away with everything he does.
If he’s re-elected/steals the election, he’ll make Hugo Chavez jealous.

Really,the lie machine that is this punk BO never shuts up or shuts off the political bs.
Otherwise, charge it to the “rich” its only fair that they pay. Afterall, the rich go on overly expensive vacations and the like.
You know “share the wealth”

His entire presidency has been nothing but a perpetual campaign (and spending spree). The nation is falling apart. No jobs. No economy. Record debt. No housing. Gas is through the roof. Europe is falling apart, and the middle east is in shambles. Racial divides. Gender divides. Age divides. He totally screwed up our health care system, and he's out coddling 24/7 for new voters (or on a luxurious tax payer paid vacation - or golfing).
He's turned out to be the worst president in American history (or at least equal to Wilson the communist. He makes Carter look like a political genus.)

Even if they decide he is campaigning all he has to do is reimburse the price of a first class ticket. Idiots run this country.
