User ID: 918879 United States 12/31/2010 03:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When you look at the big picture of the federal budget, I agree that this amounts to small change however, this does go to demonstrate how disconnected Obama and most politicians are with the affects the economic downturn/sabotage is having on all Americans. I'm more interested in knowing who Obama has had meetings with, either in person or by phone/teleconference, while in Hawaii. Repeal the 17th Amendment and the Reapportionment Act of 1929! Thread: First steps down the road to a return to the Constitutional Republic that we were intended to be. Restore the Republic. Thread: The Bill of Rights does NOT include age requirements! It's a flower, not something to be feared. - Moo! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 744051 United States 12/31/2010 03:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Nestled in three luxury beachfront homes just outside a local favorite surf spot on the pristine turquoise waters of Kailua Bay, President Barack Obama and his family and friends are enjoying a seemingly quiet Christmas vacation. Quoting: anymouse 1211168They could have chosen a less expensive and more secure place to stay such as a beachfront home on the Kaneohe Marine Corps Air Station – just a two-minute drive away from the Kailuana Place property where they are now. The president visits the military base daily to workout, bowl with his kids or enjoy the more private beach there. He also could have stayed at a home 15 minutes away on the beach fronting Bellows Air Force Base as President Bill Clinton did Instead, Obama and his friends annually pool their money to pay for the rental of three luxury beachfront homes. The so-called “Winter White House” – or Kailua home that the president rents two weeks a year – can cost an estimated $3,500 a day or $75,000 a month, according to the web site Gadling.com. The site describes the home where the President sleeps: “The 7,000 square foot home features 5 bedrooms, 5 ½ bathrooms, a media room with surround sound, a kitchen suited for a master chef, a dining room and great room, a secluded lagoon-style pool with tropical waterfalls and a lavish island spa. The ocean lanai and garden lanai showcase ornate landscaping and stunning views of Kailua Bay and Mount Olomana.” [link to www.hawaiireporter.com] FYI - There is plenty of REAL stuff to bitch about. |
