Income Inequality? Obamas Dine At Restaurant That Charges $500k For ‘Charter Members'
[Image: 14uwbh4.jpg]

Their dinner cost $1000. The hypocrisy of what he says he stands for is just too much to believe.

Quote:President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, spent the first night of the new year at Vintage Cave, an upscale restaurant in Hawaii.

“At Vintage Cave Honolulu, one can enjoy exceptional food and wine at the hands of gifted masters of the culinary arts. ‘Chef’s recommendation’ commands a gravitas guaranteed to satisfy the most discerning palate. Seasoned sommelier’s conduct the process of pairing wine and food with true finesse and style. Secure in the natural embrace of the cave-like environment, guests are encouraged to relax, ‘hit reset’ and escape the ordinary,” Vintage Cave’s description reads on its website.

As Time’s Zeke Miller pointed out, membership at the restaurant can set you back $500,000.

But he's all for middle class Americans! Haven't you seen the photos of him drinking a Budweiser?

Ah come on, settle down a little. ANYONE can be a "Special Member" for the very generous price of only $50,000.

The problem is, that the liberals on this board needs sh*t spelled out for them. If you don't, they'll call you a liar and demand you provide proof.

Is it right that most of the people who employed him can't afford to eat there? It's kinda like unions, the bosses make all make big money and it's all paid for by the little guy.

It will be nice when he's out of office and we don't have to see or hear him anymore. He's been like fingernails on a chalkboard to me for six years.

Sad thing is, he's not going away! At all. I read somewhere that when his term expires he's staying in DC so that his legacy/agenda is preserved. Most especially if a Repub wins the White House.

Three things stink after a week:

1) fish
2) house guests
3) ex presidents

I don't think the American people want him talking about policy after 2016.

My guess is he'll lobby for the top job at the UN.

I care because he told me to get rid of my cell phone and cable TV so I could afford affordable insurance and look how this prick lives.

He seems like he is cocky enough to run for Senate again, or try to get onto the Supreme Court. This guy is not going to go away. Kinda like that case of herpes you find yourself with after the 1998 Homecoming Game....

Probably Make DC the 51st State and Run as Senator along with Eric Holder for both Senate Seats.

He's too arrogant to run for the Senate. That would be a step down from the most exclusive club in the world (Ex-POTUS).
