Among the hundreds of invited guests are Hollywood A-list celebrities and close friends. Back when President Obama left office, he and Michelle purchased a $12 Million mansion in the luxury town of Martha\u2019s Vineyard, Massachusetts. The State of Massachusetts has recently issued recommendations that both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals wear masks indoors and outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these new recommendations, President Obama is going full steam ahead for his birthday bash. In keeping with the attitude of the Democratic Party and its members, the Obama\u2019s and their liberal friends seem to believe that Covid recommendations should only apply to us regular folks.<\/p>\n<p>The Office of Former President Obama and Michelle Obama did not respond to comment requests from Fox News about their upcoming party. In lieu of birthday gifts, President Obama has requested that invited guests donate money to a number of causes near to him. Of course, one of the foundations accepting Obama Birthday cash is his very own Obama Foundation. President Obama has received countless criticisms from both sides of the aisle.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats in the first place aren&#8217;t known for following their own rules, however, with Obama now deciding to ignore the rules set by the State of Massachusettes, we can expect to see many Democrats using his non-compliance as an excuse to do the same in their own states. As Obama celebrates his birthday, maskless and without fear of punishment for his outright refusal to follow rules, many Americans are worried about how they will put food on the table if they lose their jobs for not wearing a mask.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Joseph Perez Former President Barack Obama will host a large gathering for his 60th birthday at his 30-acre Massachusetts mansion.
