Obama picks up the tab

CNN reported that President Obama recently ate in a restaurant and the owner didn’t know whether he should even charge the Commander-In-Chief. But the President whipped out his Visa and paid for his meal.
It was the right thing to do. Why shouldn’t he pay for his meal? As our president, Barack Obama draws a $400,000 annual salary and he and his wife Michelle filed taxes for a combined $2.7 million income in 2008.
So of course, he can pick up his own tab.
