While President Obama shuts down the White House’s public, self-guided tours, Republican Congressman Ron DeSantis wants everyone to know that ‘Mi casa es su casa.’ Translation, for all of you in Rio Linda (H/T Rush Limbaugh) my house is your house. DeSantis has announced that his office will continue to offer and conduct tours of the Capitol, simply because he believes that such tours are part of his congressional offices ‘constituent services’ responsibility.“Under sequestration, the White House should be looking to eliminate wasteful spending in their budget, such as the $277,050 they spend each year to employ 3 calligraphers.
