Obama family vacation could cost America $100k | |
| The Grand Illusion Offer Upgrade  User ID: 6726880  United States12/09/2011 06:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | President Barack Obama has told Congress that he will put off plans to fly to Hawaii this holiday if it means lawmakers can cut a deal that will keep taxes down. The first lady will still enjoy a little fun at America’s expense, however, and you’re buying. Urging Congress to pass an extension of the payroll tax cut before the new year begins, President Obama said this week that he will forgo his planned vacation to Hawaii if it means it will help iron out a deal that will lessen the woes of the American people. That doesn’t mean that the rest of the Obama clan will be kept in DC, though. Michele Obama and the couple’s two daughters still intend on flying to Hawaii this season even if it doesn’t mean the president will join them. The estimated cost of the Obama’s little getaway even without the president? Around $100,000 of taxpayer money. The website White House Dossier reports that the trip last year for Michelle Obama alone cost $63,000 in airfare, not including other normal expenses, let alone secret service protection. Only this summer, the couple also caused outrage after the family flew to Martha’s Vineyard for a private get-away — on two separate jets only four hours apart, something the media quickly labeled a public relations disaster.

The Law of Fives is never wrong." "Some say the end is near. Some say we'll see armageddon soon. I certainly hope we will. I sure could use a vacation from this bull-shit three ring circus sideshow of freaks." "It's the end of the world as we know it...and I feel fine."

Peace 2 U Because the President happens to be half black, that automatically makes this a racist thread? You're a pretty ignorant and shallow thinker. And just because the other Presidential families may have done this in the past...I suppose you think it's ok for it to continue to happen. Especially in the economic situation that we're in the middle of right now. I usually hold back on my judgements...but I'm sick of people like you and comments like yours.
