Remember that little speech the President made in Elkhart Indiana in February. The one where he said:
But, you know, you are not going to be able to give out these big bonuses until you pay taxpayers back. You can’t get corporate jets. You can’t go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayers’ dime. There’s got to be some accountability and some responsibility, and that’s something that I intend to impose as president of the United States.
This afternoon that same President took his wife on the “Corporate” Jet (Airforce One) and Helicopter, along with the Secret Service, his “corporately paid body guards” and flew to New York for dinner and a Broadway Play.
