The girls wanted a ski trip.
Slick Willy CLINTON did ... when he took over the land for a park... land that was above the largest vein of the Cleanest COAL on the face of the EARTH... the only other one was owned by an INDONESIAN DONOR.
Maybe FUHRER Obama should sign that bill in Las Vegas... in Colorado makes it seem more like Stephen King’s “THE STAND”
And the carbon that air farce 1 spits out.
Did Bush fly to Crawford for valentines day in 2001?
The man is a maniac. He can’t survive for a few days without being in front of some crowd that is drooling all over themselves.
I believe he did leave town to sign the No Child Left Behind Act.
In the corporate world I noticed some so-called managers were in a state of almost perpetual motion flying all over the place. This made it hard to pin them down for anything serious so important stuff was often inadequately addressed but the fluff got their attention.
Being fair, there were those who did a fine job even if always on the move but the former category was the more common in my experience.
You raise a good question. I too took notice of his leaving to sign Porkulus. I am not sure about ‘ever’ but I have not noticed this being done a great deal by past presidents. I understand why it is being done and that is simply that Obama is still running for office. Believe it or not, he is campaigning for 2012. This is what it is all about for him. He is no leader, so this is what you are going to see from him; a perpetual campaign.
I would like to add, I was not trying to imply that President Bush was some great guy fiscally, just seriously trying to figure out if this was a common thing among presidents now. I don’t like waste in anything. It drives me bonkers. So if BHO can manage to hang on for 4 years, I’m going to go absolutely loopy.
Yes. He signed bills in a number of different cities. I can clearly remember Cincinnati being one of them. I’m not sure with what President this started.
I’m not sure about that, but he flew in here twice, for multi-millinon dollar photo ops, one to announce he was putting the Guard on the border, and eleven months later to beat his chest, and announce he had fixed the border, now give him what he wanted, amnesty, in his words”comprehensive immigration reform.”
Imagine if the GM execs took a jet to Denver for a photop?? The obamedia would be howling!!
Pray for America
If I were a CEO with a corporate jet, I’d be bringing this pork barrel spending trip up every time I was asked.
“Mr. CodeToad, do you own a private jet that...”
“Wait there, Mr. Senator, I’ll answer that question when you explain why the taxpayers paid for Obama to take that huge Air Force One 747 jet to Denver to sign the trillion dollar Porkulous bill. His single trip cost more than my entire lifetime’s worth of trips. Your pork barrel spending bill cost the taxpayers millions of times more than my jet trips have ever cost.”
Bush. But it might not count, since he didn’t want the bill iin the first place.
Bush signs Homeland bill; border fence coming
Oct 5, 2006 3:50 PM
Standing before a mountainous backdrop in Arizona, a state that has been the center of debate over secure borders, President Bush this week signed into law a $35 billion Homeland security spending bill that could bring hundreds of miles of fencing to the busiest illegal entry point on the U.S.-Mexican border.
