Last year Obama flew in Air Force One 172 times, almost every other day. White House officials have been telling reporters in recent days that the Democrat doesn't intend to hang around the White House quite so much in 2011.
They explain he wants to get out more around the country because, as everyone knows, that midterm election shellacking on Nov. 2 had nothing to do with his healthcare bill, over-spending or other policies, and everything to do with Obama's not adequately explaining himself to his countrymen and women...
At an Air Force-estimated cost of $181,757 per flight hour (not to mention the additional travel costs of Marine One, Secret Service, logistics and local police overtime), that's a lot of frequent flier dollars going into the president's carbon footprint.

Ground Zer0 until unemployment is below 5%.
Anyone still wondering who this little communists black Muslim Dictator is?
How about a dense playboy that won the lottery.

....surprised that the Times would take a tone of sarcasm concerning “the One”....maybe they’re coming out from under the ether.
heh
This is about the worst damned hypocrite that has ever lived in the White House.
The arrogance astounds me.
HOPE my ass !!!!!!
Remember last year when the Prime Minister David Cameron flew to the U.S. on British Airways (commercial).
How about we take up that part from Europe?

He's pretty expensive when he sits at that desk in the Oval Office, too. How much per hour there?
He is just another liberal thief and since he is the king of the thieves, he plans to steal as much of the people’s money as possible. If he can’t take it with him, he’ll just waste it. He spent over $100 MILLION taxpayer dollars on flying around in AF-1 alone and probably another hundred million on his entourage. Pissing away YOUR money while pretending to give a shit about the economy and the people who actually work and pay taxes seems to be his biggest talent.
As Grocho would say, you hit the magic word.
ARROGANCE
America will never be the same again.
There’s no erasing the stain this POS is on the nation.
Zero is another Tinpot Dictator living lavishly at the expense of his subjects.
“$181,757 per flight hour”
Sounds like reparations.
