Sure... I fuckin believe that. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45704973 Nice work .... The problem is...it's not THEIR money. If they were footing the bill for the travel costs and extra security out of pocket...I would not care. But they require all this added security that costs the taxpayers millions and millions of dollars. What part of that do you not get? When go on vacation, I pay for it myself. I do not expect my next door neighbor to help foot the bill. By using tax payer dollars, that is exactly what they are doing. |

Obama can spend as much of your money as he wants. All he has to do is be a good little puppet, follow the script and take the blame for everything that will happen. Meanwhile the real people running the show make a ton of $$$ screwing the average joe. |

Believe they do not represent our beliefs and values. Please forgive their ignorance. We are patiently waiting and counting the days 'til they leave the White House so that our tax dollars can't be further used for their vacations. |

Figure my little voice and opinion isn't going to change shit...I try not to care. But I do care. I care that it sets a bad example. I care that it further divides our country. I care that "Nero fiddles while Rome burns"... I don't know why I care, I just do. It bothers me to know that friends and family are struggling...trying to decide whether to pay a bill or eat...or heat their home. I do care...and all I ask of this "leadership" is to set an example. Do not spend frivolously...if you do not "need" it, do not spend money on it. Do not promote mooching and leeching...give people a reason to want to be proud of their personal accomplisments...sucking a GOV check and an EBT card is not much of an accomplisment. That is not meant to be racist, that is directed at all races that have decided to suck on GOV titty to survive. Stop the crony capitalism and allow free market capitalism to grow and do what it does best...which is create opportunity and propserity for eveyone that chooses to participate in it. Oh well...I DO care and it breaks my heart to see the damage being inflicted to our country and our society by shortsightedness and blatant selfishness... |

The media is a democrat/liberal propaganda machine...it would be nice if more people realized this. Now I personally voted for Bob Barr in 2008 but...that is another story. I just couldn't allow my conscience to vote for "the lesser of two evils" so I actually voted for the guy I thought had the best position on things. For the upcoming mid=terms...I hpe people will stop and think before voting a straight ticket... Perhaps the answer will come with "absolutely NO incumbents"...I just hope more people consider this. |

His mother-in-law, his wife, and his kids are half way around the world enjoying a very expensive spring break with 70 people in their entourage. Yes....70 people. Secret service is understandable but what do the rest of them do but wait on these princesses hand and food? And yes, most of what it is costing is taxpayer money. Laura Bush didn't do this. Neither did Barbara Bush. Not even shop-a-holic Nancy Reagan did this. Sure they all went on a trip or two a year but nothing on this scale and not nearly so often or with so many people who are being paid by the taxpayers. |
