It does seem that Obama has succeeded in turning the USA into a 3rd world country/banana republic style government, where those at the top of the political "food chain" get it all... It's only because the USA is so rich in resources (both natural and human) that it's not as noticeable as it was with, say the Marcos family in the Philippines, or Arafat in Israel.

But at least Hawaii is a 12 hour plane ride from anywhere in the lower 48 - so MAYBE we won’t see as much of the ex-President Obama as we have of ex-President Clinton.

Unfortunately satellites trump distance.
What do you want to bet this mansion has its own studio and set for frequent 'Bama interviews with the suck up MSM, as he criticizes President Romney's actions at every turn.

There's no way this turd is going quietly into that good night.
Democrats in general lack the character (witness Bill Clinton), and this democrat in particular is wholly devoid of character.

Looks like someone might need a part-time job as a Walmart helper to cover that $222,000 annual property tax bill!

If that’s on Hawaii, the tax rate is $5.55 per $1,000 of assessed property, according to these guys:

That’s a CHUNK-O-CHANGE!

There have long been movements for Hawaii to secede. It’d be one way to get him out of the country. Banishment, of course, would be better.

Weekly World News. Fantasy rag.

Just because Weekly World News ran the story doesn't necessarily mean that it is false. It could be true.

Isn't that the Harry Reid standard for reporting? An allegation has been made, it is up to Obama to prove that it is not true.

This article is blatantly recycled from the speculative Hillbuzz blog article it sources, and it isn’t even the updated Hillbuzz info on the subject. It even uses a known photoshopped picture. Garbage blog.

What’s wrong with their mansion in Chicago? Not good enough anymore I guess.

Hmmm, 40 million estate. Revenue from book sales that he forced on the American taxpayers via book sales? That “He” has from forcing the government to place “his books” all over the world at our “expense”.

WOW...Rezko was peanuts compared to this....

So true. Oblahblah has had someone else paying for him all his life. Why should things change now?

Snip:
There’s a movie theater in the mansion and it already is set up to play ALL of Obamas speeches over the last 20 years – in a continuous loop.

OMG! A new substitute for Capital Punishment.

So where did he get the money? Under Dodd-Frank doesn’t he have to put down 20% of the $40 million?

That presidential gig must pay better than I thought.

Two more books (each) and a half dozen speeches a year (each) and $40 million is a piece of cake.And remember that personal security for a former President will allow those two parasites to stick the American taxpayer with a big chunk of the bill.

The thread referencing his purchase of an estate in HI said he would move in Jan 2013. Perhaps it is currently rented to another, but if not, then why is he not staying in his own home in HI? Just wondering...
