President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama visited Ground Zero in New York City to review the construction of the iconic 104-story skyscraper that replaces the World Trade center towers destroyed on Sept. 11, 2001.
The Obamas toured the 22nd floor of One World Trade Center and also signed their names on a steel beam that will be added to the tower's construction with the message, "We remember, we rebuild, we come back stronger!"
During his trip to New York, the president will also be attending campaign fundraisers at the home of Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, and at the Plaza Hotel.

WHAT A @!$%#ING INSULT!!!
To have Barack Hussein "Babooma the Organ Grinder's Monkey" Obama, a MUDSLIME LOVER if there ever was one even being allowed near that sacred area is an insult to all of those brave people who lost their lives in the attack on our once great country by MUDSLIMES.
The fact that THE FIRST HOE "Gorilla @!$%#" Michelle was there too even add more insult.

You must be a white monkey.
This is how the entire US government executive works. The leader makes a short business trip (1 hour or less) and then spends the rest of the day doing what s/he wants to do (whether sightseeing, visiting friends/family, or just goofing off). The taxpayer pays all round trip airfare, rental car, lodging, meals & incidental expenses, taxi to & from airport, and any other expense the individual can cook up. They ate at McDonalds but charged for 5 star restaurant food. They stayed with friends but got a receipt from some vacationer at a 5 star hotel. They had a buddy drop them off at the airport but charged for full taxi fare with a generous tip. All excess proceeds go into their pocket. The end result; they profit handsomely, vacation and enjoy themselves while doing a job that never needed doing and you put your money into their pocket. Since the leader provides the example, all the minions work hard at emulating that example. That's how the feds work!
ape's like to climb, look-there's two now
