An idea what her husband does?

Gargle with antifreeze every morning and pray for death?

[Paratrooper]

Excellent!!

Obama: don’t blow your cash in Vegas

He was following his own advice. He wasn't blowing his money he was blowing our money!

[GOPJ]

...over an impending inspector general’s report detailing lavish spending on a Vegas conference for a handful of government employees...

The NEW YORK TIMES will NOT be interested in this story.

$6300 on a commemorative coin set? And I’ll bet you it was pennies.

[blueunicorn6]

$3200 for a mind reader? I didn’t realize Ann Coulter worked so cheap.

[BilLies]

I think your right, the articles will follow the segment about the untouched photos of 17 year old Trayvon that the MSM misplaced.

Libs haven’t a problem spending, spending, spending OPM to their hearts content as they will rationalize some of the most outrageous scenarios as to why they must.

As I’ve posted in the past on several occasions the Libs are the last ones we want hovering over the government counting house. They are nuts! It’s our money, and we had better be wise with it. Never vote Democrat.

Oh come on, resigning because of spending a measely $835,000! That is just “BUDGET DUST.”

Heh! Good quote.

>> She’ll just be replaced by another career bureaucrat <<

She was a political appointee, not a career bureaucrat.

(Not sure, however, which is worse!)

[standingfirm]

Trust me, he’s laughing...

[acapesket]

LOLLLLLING! It’s gotta be Ethylene though to Really do the job!

I had no idea Edith Bunker would steal from the taxpayers like that.

[napscoordinator]

President Obama “was outraged by the excessive spending, questionable dealings with contractors, and disregard for taxpayer dollars,” Lew said, “and called for all those responsible to be held fully accountable.”

Biggest bunch of crap I have ever read. There is no way he REALLY cares.

[napscoordinator]

“BTW, she keeps her pension. “ This is theft and fraud. Why is she not in jail?

Not really. People do this all the time. The ONLY reason it is such a problem is because the press grabbed it and ran with it. These conventions go on all the time in every part of government. These costs are less than one day in Iraq by the way. Let’s keep things in perspective.

[PghBaldy]

She’s white too, I think.

so tragic that Johnson will have to retire in exile to Marthas Vinyard and King Obama will get to appoint the embezzler of his choice

just tragic

[Cheerio]

Meanwhile, the drumbeat of Dictator Baby-Doc Barack continues to grow louder : -— regulate -— control -— destroy -— Regulate -— control -— destroy -— REgulate -— control -— destroy -— REGulate -— control -— destroy -— REGU

And I have resigned myself to the very real possibility Baby-Doc Baraq will be handed his second term after a tough slog against the best the GOP could come up with - mittens.

Never lose sight of the fact almost 50% of American residents pay no Fed income tax and are enjoying a nice ride in the Baraq wagon - they will not disappoint.

If only she had flown to Spain with 40 of her closest friends, or gone on a "school field trip" to Mexico accompanied by 25 Secret Service agents, she'd have kept her job.

Or, my favorite, take separate jets to Martha's Vineyard.

[sthguard]

“Will she have to pay some back? Like maybe the cost of the mind reader?”

You’d think somebody would have seen this coming.
