speaking of white house spending

#1 Post by BigDrawMan » Sun Jan 25, 2009 2:14 pm

the first family does not get free grub,except for state dinners.
they are charged fancy hotel room service rates for their meals.
laura bush said she got sticker shock when the first bill came in.

Do they have their own kitchen?

Can Michelle or her mom cook for the family?

the staff also makes meals for state affairs,official meals with members of congress and whatnot.

i dont think michelle and her mom can cook for 300 people.

They could hire day people for those things.

That is if the cost is a problem for them.

do you think it is a good idea to hire people off the street to cook for the president?

There are many other choices than staff chefs and hiring off the street.

That covers day 1. What about the rest?

That's why Bush always cut the Dominos coupons out of the Sunday paper so he could get $2 off on a large pizza delivery.
