The media did this to Nancy Reagan when she ordered new china.
Was the media ever concerned about Obama’s vacations with an entourage of hundreds?
“The Reagans were often criticized for the $209,508 cost. The china was not funded by taxpayers, and was paid for by a J.P. Knapp Foundation donation.”

31K for a table and chairs is NOT RIGHT
Sorry not the same as First Lady Nancy—who lived in White House and entertained and paid herself for the new China! I wish the media had done any watchdoging on the Obamas, but the fact that they did nothing does not make it OK to let Carson slide.
Why does a HUD Secretary even need a “dining room set” in their office, let alone one that costs $31,000—I mean how many people need to eat with him in his office?
Has he ever hear of his desk or a conference room table like the rest of us use?
