“I haven’t been putting up with 19 months of airplanes and hotel food”

mcCain’s plane was shot down and spent 5 years at the Hanoi Hilton.

Nailed it.

I hope the Hotel Associations jump all over Obama for his unhelpful remarks.

Well, first he wants to blast the Corporate travel industry to oblivion by taxing it to death (not to mention every other segment of the corporate world) to pay for all his new programs. In the interim until he's able to do that, he wants to blast away at the travel industry about their accommodations, food, & quality-of-transportation.

Anybody wanna tell me why anybody in the travel/hospitality industries wants to support him?

19 months. Isn’t that about the amount of time he’s been a Senator?

If you don't count the time he's spent being a full-time Pwesident-in-Twaining, you're giving him about 15 months too much!

So, Mr. Obamasiah, what kind of cheese do you like with all that whine? My 9 year old grandaughter knows better than to whine like this. This fool is not fit to be a Senator, let alone CinC.

I think he’s subliminally accepting his defeat with these comments.

Complaining won’t get you anywhere in the world.

Shut up, Obamanation!

Suck it up and offer a sacrifice.

(Gee, we haven’t heard that old man, McCain complain!! Have we?

What you said!

I wonder what Barry thinks life will be like as president. Maybe he needs to look at the “before” and “after” pics of presidents.

Juneau is only accessible via sea or air. Cars and trucks are transported to and from Juneau by barge or ferry."

The reason why there are so many flying expenses is that it's a common way of getting into and out of Juneau. It's not like her family is flying from Philadelphia to Washington, DC because they are too lazy to drive.

On the campaign trail for 19 months, "in office" for 34 months(?):

*I hope his Senator's salary was pro-rated so he only gets paid when doing work for the country, not working for OBAMA!

Speaking of money: who paid for the plane with his name on it?

* If the food on the plane stinks FIRE THE COOK! It's your plane moron!

Sorry, apparently I’m replying in the wrong thread. I was replying to the travel expenses complaints. My mistake.

I don’t believe in coming in second.

Except he admits we are second, or soon to be, to China in economic output, and that we should just accept that.

Or, that, we are second, again to China, in how their infrastructure works, and that we should admire their example...slave labor, poverty outside the shiny faux cities...

Except you come in second to Palin on executive experience

He can't be second, but by golly, in his mind, it's OK for America to be second.

That's not the America I or most people know, and they see it, and they will give you the position you deserve...second (better known as "first-place LOSER")
