Obama's $4 million, 17-day Hawaiian vacation

[MeBelle]

presidents dont take vacations-rightwing during Bush term.

I don't think anyone is really complaining that Obama gets out of that piece of crap White House once in awhile.
It's the cost of getting out of that dungeon that have some people upset...and rightly so.

Marie Antoinette

change your tampon then.

After you, deary.

That's it? Bush took three times as many as Obama. In fact, Obama has taken fewer vacation days than any president in decades. Why are Republicans complaining about....huh....what?

Oh, that's right.

He's black. I keep forgetting. Nevermind.

Hey Dean, look what I found:

November 2010

"But the trip to India, Indonesia, South Korea and Japan was by no means cheap. While a total by-the-day figure may be impossible to come by, Brady estimated that the 48 hours of flight time logged on the trip would cost at least $8.7 million for Air Force One alone. The president's latest visit to Lisbon, Portugal, for a NATO conference would add another $2.7 million, he figured.

That Lisbon trip also set a record for Obama. By Brady's accounting, Obama has now logged 55 days overseas, surpassing former President George H.W. Bush's record of 54 days during his first two years. In total, Obama has visited 26 countries -- some of them more than once -- over the course of 15 trips."

oopsie

A NATO conference during a time of war is a "vacation"?

What the ***** wrong with you?

You guys are pissing me off. Don't you fuckers know how to argue?

The president of the United States visiting foreign countries when we are involved in two wars and the right wing complains. He's black. We get it. You hate the black guy so no matter what he does, no matter how much since it makes, he's still black.

"He's Black" That sucks.... you did it again...

It's not good to argue when your pissed off.. (like in your case) .. you make no reasonable sense...

People, grow the **** up. The President takes vacations. They have for as long as we can remember and they will for as long as we will live.

How many bellies would be filled with $4 million a day...mmm

Obama leads the country into hard times, yet seemingly feels no responsibility for it..

In my book.. that's a prick...

Now it's exaggerated into $4 million PER DAY!
Do I hear $4 million per hour???

In my book.. That's a lying CON$ervative prick...

and? My assessment still applies or are you going to argue the accuracy of 5 to 25 million.

Go ahead PLEASE!!!

This is not his money that the differance, he's not using his money get it?

He's the president. He's paid by the state. All the crap you gotta do to become one of those... if you take a 4 million dollar vacation so be it.

I won't complain, I'll just wish I was him and be envious.

The cost is due to security meatheads. It doesn't matter where he goes on vacation, security is expensive. This is a price we pay for any President. Get over it.

You're not getting it. Conservatives don't feel as if the black guy..is the US president. They don't feel he should be accorded the same things every other president has gotten. And in fact some would welcome his assassination.

That is the one thing I liked about the guy. Didnt care much for the slum lording you guys approved.

 

[Sallow]

and yet he still insists on taking expensive vacations with a 40% approval.....maybe 30% of the 60% dissapproval are the hatred of him taking expensive vacations when we are broke?? and in the meantime Iran is building a bomb, why hasnt Obama mentioned that in his speeches?

42% and trending up.

I kinda liked he was an authentic American hero. You know..as in fought during the Korean war..and won a mess of medals for saving the lives of his brothers-in-arms. He also championed civil rights in this country.

Good on you to call this great American.."A Slum Lord".

Is that a "black thing"?

PAST HEROISM DOESNT EXCUSE CRIMINALITY.

When will you clowns get that message.

You mean noted car thief and alleged arsonist Daryl Issa? He's the guy that wants to investigate the President every time he takes a piss right?

"He's black."....it sucks that you keep using that bullshit innuendo...sheesh..

If you haven't noticed, the economy sucks right now, the national debt is exploding and the list is rather ponderous from there..

How about a little belt tightening by the Government knuckleheads at the top...mmm

How about the President leading by example?

mmm.. I sound angry...

It looks like rderp thinks the economy sucks because Obama's black.

Really, derp...that's rather racist, don't you think?

 

[daveman]

let bozo keep taking expensive vacations while america suffers, it will come back to haunt him in November.

Not really. Most ordinary Americans are well aware of the obvious fact that ANYTHING the most powerful government executive in the world does is going to cost more than an ordinary citizen doing the same thing. It costs a huge chunk of change just for Obama - or ANY President - to sit at his desk in the Oval Office.

...but you claim it costs less to send him on vacation.
