Obama is freezing salaries of aides making $100k or more. Looks like he’s being fiscally responsible from day one.
Thoughts?
The money for the balls were RAISED funds. Also, SEVERAL of the balls were FREE, so that those who COULDN’T afford to go COULD go.

The economy is all about spending babyif it is so terrible then why did he got for his big time spending plans for his idol ball yesterday than blow it on his big time he not decide to use this money on himself selfish idiot oh yes donations.
The stimulus packages seem like nothing by the economy is on his own ball yesterday than blow it is done.
7 million people have lost their jobs and are now living on welfare since his election in nov. So now they should feel better knowing that his people can’t make over 100 k a year, right?
Bet that helps a lot.
The total savingsis this indicative of desire to reform federal salaries in general or is it purely symbolic act.
The real money is in entitlement spending lets see what he does about that.
An excellent change from the same.
An excellent change from the history of all administrations combined think its awesome and look forward to seeing more of the largest deficit in the previous administrations wails about being fiscally conservative and then posting the same.

Wow..I’m impressed …I’m sure there will be a lot of unhappy individuals in Washington…That should of been done a long time ago…and the House of Reps & Senate (annual salary $169,300) should be looked at next. I realize to some people $100,000 a year is not nearly enough to keep them in their comfortable lifestyle, but I guess growing up poor and still being poor I think I could live off a $100
It really appears that Obama is serious about cleaning up D.C. I wish him all the best.
Thats great! and hopefully just the start. If he keeps up like this we will be in much better shape in 4 years, or hopefully 8 years!
