The same GOTP zombies who mock the Democrats for proposing a mere $80 billion worth of cuts are now shrieking that the President should give up a few million bucks' worth of his perks of office.

Way to slash the deficit by 0.00067% there, geniuses.

No one is saying that this is to reduce the deficit. How about leading by example? How about showing that you are willing to go abaove and beyond? But the liberal idiots will defend him to the death even though he is an immense hypocrite and an obvious uncaring elitist.

The left is PATHETIC!!

And Obama spent over a billion dollars keeping his job, also paid for by some of the richest liberals in the country. So what is your point? More "do as I say, not as I do" from the left?

When is our President going to apply his own words to himself and his administration? He is the one who used the term "shared sacrifice" (multiple times). It is about time this sorry excuse for a leader stepped up and started heeding his own advice.

Liberals, why aren't you holding him more accountable? More liberal hypocrisy?
I bet Obama will pay more taxes since he is undoubtedly in the top 2%. There is your shared sacrifice.

Exactly. AND, he is willing to make that shared sacrifice, unlike many others in the top 2%, who are fighting it tooth and nail.
