Irony?

 

The Obama administration is spending millions of dollars this year to lure foreign visitors through a "Discover America" ad campaign in nine nations.

 

I do hope they are adding the disclaimer that the visitors won't be able to tour the White House.

 

Perhaps Obama could divert some of that money to keeping the White House open to our own citizens.
