President Obama says he's not the one who canceled the White House tours. He made the comments in an interview with ABC News.

"[O]ne more question about the spending cuts," said the interviewer from ABC News. "You’ve been takin’ a lotta heat for this cancellation of the White House tours. They get– the Secret Service says it’s costs about $74,000 a week. Was canceling them really necessary?"

"You know, I have to say this was not– a decision that went up to the White House. But th– what the Secret Service explained to us was that they’re gonna have to furlough some folks. What furloughs mean is– is that people lose a day of work and a day of pay," Obama said, in response.

You can tell he is lying when he stammers over the answer.... probably why he stammers a lot.

Obama has full control over what is cut by the sequester.

And growing at a slower rate is NOT a cut. no matter how the media wants to pretend otherwise.

Whitehouse tours cost $74k per week?

When I went, some aid/intern walked us around a few rooms and that was it. Took like 60 minutes and I don't recall any free food or drink either.

Where's (lol) the money going to?

Facts prove lies or truth.


its why the right has to lie all the time to cover up facts

Still way too expensive. The Whitehouse already has a 24 hour security team (tour or no tour), so incrementally I can't see how the tours add on an additional $300,000/month.
