So. Back in February the President went to Elkhart, Indiana and made a speech where, as Deceiver.com helpfully reminds us, he included this part:
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.
Earlier this week, the President took a trip to Las Vegas on the taxpayers’ dime. His privilege. He went there to raise money for the wildly unpopular Senator Harry Reid. Likewise, his privilege. He did this even though the current Governor is quite upset at the President for helping to lose his state about 131 million in revenue so far this year – and upset from afar, because the President didn’t meet with either him or the (Democratic) mayor of Las Vegas. Once again, the President’s privilege – hey, do you know the etymology of the word ‘privilege?’
It’s Latin: it means ‘private law.’
