The Vineyard Gazette reports that the first family will be staying for the second year at the Chilmark home of Obama and Hillary Clinton contributor Joanne Hubschman on secluded North Road. Photos show it is equipped with a large infinity pool, a tennis court and comes with a huge sandy beach. The 17-room home is worth about $12 million.

Did they remember to arrange for Bo to travel with them, or are we going to have pay for a V-22 Osprey at $10,000/hr to fly him in after his visit to the dog groomer?

My daughter and her husband are headed there tomorrow (his family has a home there in Menemsha). I bet they are pissed.

Martha’s Vineyard is a very liberal place and they just love the Clintons and Obamas. Doesn’t ValJar own a home there?

It is so sad that their idol will inconvenience the LIBs who are...so sad.

12M estate? When I went there for a 2 week vacation, all I had was a bed in a 4 bunk boat, docked at Poole’s fish market at Menemsha Harbor. It was this time of the year and when I jumped into the water, I froze my butt off.

Any of Martha’s residents upset with the Bammy’s visit and who voted for him all we can say is this-—— Good.

Try Charleston SC. Hot and muggy now, but the ocean was 80+ degrees.

Meanwhile, our family has had five vacations already this year. Two weekend days at a time - camping out, cooking over a campfire and sleeping in a tent. Bet we had a better family time than the Obama’s and it didn’t cost the taxpayers a dime.

I don’t know about Valerie but it has always been a vacation destination for wealthy blacks-—primarily the Oak Bluffs area.
