It must be nice being President... Obama to jet off to Hawaii for SEVENTEEN DAY Christmas vacation.

While most Americans are lucky to get a few weeks of holiday every year, it seems the country’s leader gets a little more freedom in the matter.

President Barack Obama has announced his Christmas vacation to Hawaii – for a staggering 17-day trip.

Obama, who visited the island just two weeks ago for an economic summit, will head to Honolulu on Saturday December 17 until Monday January 2.

The president, who was raised in Hawaii until he was six, will be joined by his wife Michelle and their daughters, Malia, 13, and Sasha, 10.

The White House travel office announced the president has no public events scheduled for the trip.

The President's family covers the cost of a private beach front residence in Kailua, Oahu, for their vacation - a ‘Winter White House’ that costs up to $3,500 a day, or $75,000 a month.

But the local and federal taxpayers help pay the bill for travel and security.

Our elected officials have forgotten that they are servants of the people.

An elitist mentality has crept in and polluted our republic.

Term limits would be a good start.

zero probably is reading the writing on the wall and grabbing as much of the bennies he can before January 2013. I think he is already scheduling a lame duck golf tournament beginning in early November 2012 and lasting until...?

This is just a practice run for his 3 week CHRISTMAS (or, as he would say, HOLIDAY) vacation.

Does the house itself face Mecca? How about where the toilets face?

Once again scramming from another Christian holiday. Just like a devout Muslim.
