First dog Bo is airlifted to Obama holiday home - Telegraph

Bo, the president's Portuguese Water Dog, arrived separately on one of two MV-22 Ospreys, a hybrid aircraft which takes off like a helicopter but flies like a plane.
It was the first time the Ospreys have been taken on holiday by a US president.

Wasn't room for the dog after they got moochelle's 8 ton butt on the plane.

 

[OnePercenter]

Except for the FACT that the dog rode in the plane which was for staffers you'd be correct.

 

[Duped]

One thing is for sure; the dog is the best of the Obama bunch!

 

[mudwhistle]

That 7.5 million vacation spot is probably Camp David, a place where Jr. spent a lot of time.

Sorry, but I don't think that it cost Obama 50,000 dollars to have his dog transported there.

Can you provide a link?

Otherwise, be known for the conservative liar (who hates black men) that you are.

Yes, we all need to shut the fuck up or be called racists.

Not a racism thing really..more of a hypocrite thing.

Since this didn't really come up much from you guys when Bush took almost 400 days of vacation in an area that was much harder to secure than actual vacation spots.

Bush didn't take 400 vacation days. The media is lying about that. They figured that any time he spent in Crawford working was a vacation. And they also decided to fudge the numbers by including weekends.

Obama costs us millions because he likes vacationing near the ocean, and he always has to have an entire fleet of ships to provide security.

Vacationing at Matha's Vineyard - where all the rich white people are.

First dog Bo is airlifted to Obama holiday home - Telegraph

n8:07PM BST 11 Aug 2013


Rooms have to be found for dozens of Secret Service agents, someone has to carry a selection of presidential basketballs, and of course the family dog needs his own state-of-the-art aircraft.
Arriving in the idyllic coastal retreat of Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts, Mr Obama left behind him in Washington DC high profile debates over the budget, government surveillance and his health care reforms. Instead, he will spend the next eight days playing golf, going to the beach, and buying books from the Bunch of Grapes bookstore.

Bo, the president's Portuguese Water Dog, arrived separately on one of two MV-22 Ospreys, a hybrid aircraft which takes off like a helicopter but flies like a plane.

It was the first time the Ospreys have been taken on holiday by a US president.
More than 70 hotel rooms, each costing up to $345 (£220) a night, have been booked out for Secret Service agents, who took charge of luggage including two large mesh bags full of basketballs.
The Obamas are staying in Chilmark on the western tip of the island, an area that is dotted with multi-million dollar homes. The neighbours include actor Ted Danson and the singer Carly Simon.

It probably cost $50,000 dollars to fly his dog to Obama's little $7.5 million vacation retreat.

More like $200 MILLION DOLLARS A DAY.

Don't you fools ever get tired of repeating the same old lies?

The operating cost of a V22 Osprey is $10,000 per hour, so that isn't a lie or an exaggeration.

What exactly did he do in Crawford while he was chopping down trees?

BTW....................I spent time in the military, and yeah..............working on weekends was one of the things we did. Why? Because this country needs to be defended 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, rather than the paltry 40 hours per week the civilians work.

Sorry, but the weekends count.

Guess what folks, a dog was more important than the lives of four men. Think about that for a minute. You can summon the might of a V-22 Osprey for a dog, but you couldn't summon any aircraft to save the lives of four men.

Mind blown.

Horseshit. The president is a civilian. Weekends are not work days. Presidents often work on weekends, but there's no justification for calling it a vacation if they choose not to.

All you did is show everyone what a sleazy propagandist you are.

Actually, the president is someone elected to perform the will of the people. Sorry, but he's on the job 24/7, and is expected to make decisions even outside of the normal work week.

Do you really think that he's supposed to ignore things from Friday at 5 o'clock until 8 a.m. on Monday?

What if there is an attack on Saturday at 5:00 pm?

I'm pretty sure he (or she) would have to work through the weekend if that happened.

 

[FJO]

This story and this family reminds me of the episode of "Married With Children" in which their dog, Buck was given a credit card by mistake.

Obozo has never had a job in his life. He was raised on welfare and went to college thru affirmative action and then "worked" in govt. He's lived off white people since the day he was born.

Really? Is that a fact, or is it just more talking points fed to you by the GOP, FAUX Nooze and Rush LimpIdiot?

Care to provide links to prove your point?

He's a civilian. End of story. There is no legal document that states Obama is obligated to work on weekends. You're saying that only because everyone knows you're spouting pure idiocy.

Do you really think that he's supposed to ignore things from Friday at 5 o'clock until 8 a.m. on Monday?

You mean the way he ignored American personnel being murdered in Benghazi?

What if there is an attack on Saturday at 5:00 pm?

I'm pretty sure he (or she) would have to work through the weekend if that happened.

Whenever Obama chooses to work is irrelevant. That's his choice. You're attempt to claim Bush was taking a vacation if he chose not to work on a Sunday is moronic and thoroughly dishonest.
