Royals, Obamas Sip $1,000 Vino

Back to blog

Go ahead and drink your $1000 bottles of wine while Americans have no jobs, are dealing with losing their homes in natural disasters and their healthcare is being taken away by the lefties.
Obama knows he will suck one term out of the country and he intends on living it up as much as possible. He and Michele are making a mockery of everything Presidential.
I pray everyday that the hate bating lefties in our country will come to their senses and see what this president and first lady are.

Tom of FL, you and your ilk are disgusting racists and bigots! No doubt if Bush or any other president did this, you'd have no problem with it! What proof do you scumbags have that Obama is sending taxpayer money on these "vacations" you racists have been proven to be liars to the President and First Lady expenses! hey spend their OWN money!
The racist republican have no one better as a presidental canditate so they lie about the President's expenses! But what can you expect from the party who attacks Obama for using speech notes, but praises a complete ditz you writes simple, unforgettable words on her hand!

Thank God we've got a president and first lady who can appreciate some culture. Please they were served these aged grapes, you fool.
The Obamas are wonderful leaders. Are you kidding me? BOTH of them are Marxists to the highest degree. They are on a four year vacation that they will never see again after 2012. They don't care about you Bob!!!! Now if your name was Soros you might get invited to break bread with them.
Lemming laden suckers for the politics of distraction ( read anti-abortion) follow their white hooded ancestors, bigots, know nothings down the short trail to oblivion, Who is the Biogt here BOB? This President ha done nothing of greatness. He has put you and I into the deepest debt this country has EVER seen. The only thing he has definitely done is strap a HUGE debt around this country and our children. Oh he wants us to be "GREEN", wake up you fool and think. Solar power, night comes on, lights go OUT. Wind, wind doesn't blow, LIGHTS GO OUT. If you want to live like that GO TO AFRICA, somalia would be nice this time of year don't you think BOB!!!! Oh by the way your AC won't work at night either. Bunny huggers of the world unite with BOOB your going to the dark ages.
Demand better of yourselves. We do and it is no this President. Four more yearas and you won't have a country that you will recognize from your youth BOB!!!
Must we accept the rise and fall of our country? Nope we vote this loon out in 2012, stop spending like we HAVE the money and live with in our means like you and I have to.
Oh and as far as the media is concerned BOB, Fox is one company up against, NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, all the TImes Papers, and the Posts of the world.
Think real hard BOB whom is walking in Lock Step here. YOU and your lemming friends that are kissing Obamas feet.
Remember when the solar and wind power are off for the night BOB his Tele-Prompter goes too.

Thank God we've got a president and first lady who can appreciate some culture.
Let the John Wayne tailgate beer drinkers spout their suds as they stay Republican and vote the billionaires more of THEIR taxpayer dollars.
We've cut culture, style, sense of history, out of our society. Newtwork style FoxFix is all they need, as waddling waistlines overflow couches.
The Obamas are wonderful leaders and our lemming laden suckers for the politics of distraction ( read anti-abortion) follow their white hooded ancestors, bigots, know nothings down the sh ort trail to oblivion.
Serious Republicans are passing on the race for president now. The madding crowd, bloodthirsty for the next news cycle lynching, turns right, left, backward..but never forward- always spinning, always spitting.
Obama deserves a better population to lead, a congress that isn't lock stepped into absolute NO because he's black.
Get smarter people ! Drop FoxFix, and read, if you can- some serious commentary.
Demand better of yourselves. Less talk and more performance. In time the pendulum will swing, a knife blade at the bottom, cutting off waste-line.
Must we accept the rise and fall of our country with no golden age- except for the gilded robber barons buying our courts, our congress, our media. Let them build their gated communities on beaches and deny the world is warming.
Now let the empty vitriol flow over this one.

@mary - he didn't buy the wine, it was served to him. you don't 'order' food at an official function such as this. i am seriously worried about the future of the USA reading these comments.

I would be willing to buy the guy as many bottles of this stuff as he wanted if he promised just to stay drunk all the time and not come up with more ridiculous ways to waste even more trillions of dollars that we don't have all to no good effect and would stop assaulting our liberties.
I am tired of having to apologize for Obama's idiocy and tin ear to all of my friends who live abroad. Obama truly is an embarrassment. Every time you turn around it just gets worse. The gaffes are bad enough (I wonder how you pronounce "Teutonic shift" in Austrian). But his policies would not be any different were his single motivating purpose in life to destroy the US.

I am sick of this Obama and as sick of the "royals".
Obama should have said no and just ordered a bottle of $25. It is all the same anyway.

That's what is served at Man Country in Chicago, along with white wine, Bartles & James and Appletinis.

The British royal family is worth billions. Who honestly believes they would serve some plonk at a state dinner for the POTUS/Flotus ?
Thank god they didn't serve some over-priced California oak bomb like Screaming Eagle ! The scandal would never go away.
