Another eye raiser: IRANIAN caviar? This is coming from the country whose government hates the US the worst, outside of North Korea. Iran’s rulers hate the US even worse than Cuba’s do. Well I know Obama likes to try to make nice, but this spells national security risk to me. Wouldn’t Iran love to poison that pair?

Just ask when you post it, is this real or is this Memorex?

Then there's his upcoming Hawaiian vacation over the holidays....along with immediate family, extended family, staff, advisorial retinue, hangers-on, security, cook, blah, blah ad infinitum.

Never mind that Hawaii is Numero Uno as the MOST EXPENSIVE state in which to live. Just consider it's also Numero Uno as the MOST EXPENSIVE state in which to take a vacation.

But that won't impede the procession of the Vacationer-in-Chief's Imperial Train because he's secure in the knowledge that he's Numero Uno....first in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen.

Aloha....

The Michelle Obama luxury Waldorf-Astoria receipt is a fake.

[kristinn]

The receipt is a forgery.

Speaking about costing the tax payers millions of dollars, has anyone heard about the allocaton of $332.2 million by the dept of transportation for rail projects? It seems that earlier this month the Obama administration did an end around on Congress to fund their favored rail projects.

Evidently, the WA State allotment was slipped in earlier, under the radar.

It’s ok if he goes. His approval numbers will plunge even more when the pics of him and the Moose come out eating ice cream and lobster.

Zero goes on vacation and the rest of of us are told to eat our peas and work hard ! Double standards of the decmorap party ! Vacation for me, not for thee !

"I don't think any American will fault him for getting away, especially if he comes back with some fresh ideas on how to create jobs."

The next original thought Der Leader has will be his first.

“When times are tough, you tighten your belts."

“You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college. You prioritise. You make tough choices.” Obama 03 Feb 2010

especially if he comes back with some fresh ideas on how to create jobs

LMAO~

[Kakaze]

I'm amazed his numbers are as high as they are.........50K / wk for just lodging.

Think about how many hard working men and women who really are looking for work or working at jobs below their normal level would love to have just one weeks worth of obama's lodging to support their family of 4 for a year!

That is campaign commercial material!

“especially if he comes back with some fresh ideas on how to creat jobs.”

Are you kidding me.....what?

[Gator113]

To those of you that have lost your job and are staying with friends or relatives because you lost your home and perhaps your hard earned retirement savings, I have seen photos of the place... it’s very, very nice.

So, at least you can take comfort in the knowledge that the man with the laser like focus, the very man that has been working on your future, has a very comfortable and beautiful place to rest up before he continues his “pivot” to focus on jobs.

has Michelle returned to the White House from last weeks vacation? before she starts a new one???

I just don't know how she keeps up with her garden, mine is draining me....beans, corn, tomato's,peppers beets, and now the sunflowers are blooming and I will need to prepare them for the birds winter food...oh my
