<p>ABC <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/06/white-house-forgets-to-pay-fathers-day-lunch-tab/" target="_blank">explains</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Amid the bustle of President Obama’s surprise stop for barbecue Wednesday the White House apparently overlooked one key detail: the bill.</p>
<p>Celebrating Father’s Day early, the president had lunch with two service members and two local barbers at Kenny’s BBQ on Capitol Hill.</p>
<p>As the group chatted about fatherhood, the president enjoyed a steaming plate of pork ribs with hot sauce, collard greens, red beans and rice and cornbread.</p>
<p>The bill for the president and his four guests was $55.58, but was left unpaid at the point of sale, according to pool reports.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Whoops!</p>
<p>Ironically, the move follows Obama’s declaration that Republicans <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ic6k7SAXZAA" target="_blank">left him the bill for a steak dinner</a> on the economy.</p>
<p>Obama representatives settled this particular debt by the end of the day, and the servicemen (at least during the meal) seemed to be enjoying their time.</p>

<p>However, at least if the CBS video of the event is any indication, the president spent a significant percentage of the meal praising the values of barber shops– though perhaps his praise of the military was just not as heavily featured in the clip.</p>

<p>So what's the surprise? There is nothing genuine about this man. It's all make believe. What an embarassment.</p>
