Is it just me or does it seem like President Obama spends more time in Air Force 0ne than Ron Howard and Richard Dreyfuss spent in their cars in American Graffiti?

He can smoke his cigarettes on the plane and no one can see him do it.

Wasn't there a video of Obama flashing an erection on a plane during the 2008 campaign?
I guess he like flying. A Lot.

That's the way I figure it, too. Also, the little trips to the restaurant.
You know damn well he's smoking in the Whitehouse...and probably with his feet up on the table.

Everytime he bows to the Saudis he gets free fuel.
If he really kisses their @ss, Michelle gets a new burka, and he gets a nice pair of sandals.

The schmuck is on a taxpayer funded WORLD TOUR before the music stops on November 2nd and he is run out of town on a rail two years later.
To: Sacajaweau
He’s not just smokin’ tabacky either.
Probably got bongs on Air Force One instead of oxygen masks.

This is the difference between a campaigner and an executive . Can you imagine never having had a real job of any kind in your life ?

He’s just trying to enjoy every minute knowing he’s a one-termer.

I do notice that I don’t think I’ve ever seen him in the Oval Office. He really hates that place, IMO.

Give Obama a break as far as his trips on Air Force One are concerned. After all, he’s only going to get one four-year term to enjoy them.
To: pompelmous
Yes and his use of the 747 can be a real pain in the ass to a lot of people.
Recently he went from Andrews to JFK on the AF1 while Birdbrain Biden was flying at nearly the same time to Newark.
The security for these two required airport closures and cancelled or delayed flights for thousands.
The driving distance is about 225mi and both of them could have ridden in limos and cause less disruption and saved a bundle at $57,000 per hour mileage cost on the bird!

he’s an egomaniac - all the trips mean pomp and circumstance and people waiting on him hand and foot - something he’s not likely to get from his spouse or his m-i-l - not to mention it masks his insecurity. He thinks he’s a rock star but it takes more than rock star quality to make a president.

He spends more time on AF1 than a 16 year-old girl spends in the bathroom before her first date.
