President Barack Obama ate pork ribs and chatted about fatherhood on Wednesday with two servicemen and two local barbers at a barbeque joint on Capitol Hill, but accidentally walked away without paying the check, according to an ABC News report today.

The group reportedly racked up a bill of $55.58, but the President left the restaurant before settling up.

Once alerted, the White House paid the tab by the end of the day.

OOPS! Obama Accidentally Dines And Dashes On Two Servicemen - Business Insider

Hey wasn't this the guy who just yesterday talked about people getting stuck with the check.....

Aside from that was it really accidental.......

He has stuck us all with a bloated government, bloated debt and a divided country. Thanks Chicago politics. Something that will take years to overcome and recovery is not assured at this point

Indeed. Considering his recent comment, this behavior is rather odd. Wouldn't this be at the forefront of the President's mind?

As for the extravagant bills run up by the Bush and Obama administration - either way, the taxpayers are the ones who end up with the bill.

I don't think you should say never mind. I know you are being sarcastic, but these people that bash someone just because he is not the one they voted for, or not in the party they belong to deserve to hear the details. Where are all these big mouth republicans and their wise ass comments when Bush was doing his thing? It just chaps my hide.

I can't speak for Traderwerks but I was and still badmouth Bush as well....probably will be bashing Romney when it's his turn at the wheel, though I'm sure we will be better off.

I'm not against bad mothing the Pres. They probably all deserve it in their own way, but the ones that go off on Obama and put the blame for the state of the country, economy or whatever on him seem to be doing it merely because he is not the one they wanted in office. When somone comments about Obama and how he has ruined everything and they never mention Bush and all the crap he did, it's infuriating because I know it's just a Rep/Dem thing and not based on any truth or fact. I hate politics. Traderworks summed it up best. "after Clinton left with a surplus Obama came and...oh wait, never mind". I'll finish it. Bush F'd it all up and that is a fact! If anyone thinks that after 8 years of Bush antics would go away in a few months, or even a few years then they are smoking good shit.

If Romney wins you better be in the 1% otherwise it's gonna be ugly.
