Cut the wasteful spending elsewhere and open White House. This is childish, petty and totally unnecessary.

Find examples of government waste that could replace the money used for White House tours. If things are this desperate for the finances of this country...find a corporate sponsor(like the NFL stadiums) for the tours. I'm sure Coke or Google would be glad to help out.
I voted for this President and I'm totally embarrassed about his childish and petty actions. He's like the little spoiled kid who doesn't get his way so he's going to take his ball home so no one can play.
How about taking the money from your non-stop campaigning(hey you won...you can quit now)...or your golf trips with Tiger...or all your fancy vacations...stop all this and get to work. That will save billions right there. Or maybe you don't want the American people to see you're never home.
