At least Bush earned his time off.
A president takes a vacation! Amazing!
Glad Reagan didn't take any vacations.
Run Forest Run! If you can't even answer a simply question of what I haven't answered, keep running.
Not my problem

The logical solution would be NO vacation. (Im fine with that by the way)Yeah, as I already typed time and again, I am against ANY POTUS for overspending on vacations at taxpayer cost.
Honestly. Do you actually believe the POTUS ever really gets a day off?
You righties sure are desperate.

No thanks we don't him.There is plenty of room on Canada - feel free to move.
Maybe they have room for an such a high caliber expert on US Presidential behavior.

Most of that cost is what it would cost him to visit ANYWHERE else in the U.S. The restrictions, secret-service, etc. are all costs that happen no matter where the president is.
Don't like a president visiting his place of birth, don't vote for someone from Hawaii. Funny though, I can't seem to find any posts from you complaining about GOP president travels and costs, I wonder why that is?
Because much of that 4 million is cost that is ALREADY being paid for simply by him being president. Do you think they don't have secret service at the white house? Do you think they don't keep Airforce one on standby?
Seriously, it's hilarious watching many people think the president should just stay in the white house like that doesn't incur costs in itself.

Wish I could take vacations when I had work to do.
I get that all presidents do this, but I don't understand why they're allowed to without paying for it themselves. They make 300k a year, yet take vacations worth 13 times their yearly salary?
Obama himself said he inherited the worst economy since the great depression and that very same economy is still with us. As hoards of Americans go on food stamps, lose their homes, have their unemployment insurance run out and go to the food bank for a crappy Thanksgiving meal Obama takes two 727s to Hawaii on a 20 day 4 mill luxury vacation. That's right TWO jets instead of the one that every other president has used. Apparently obama needs a special cargo jet for his toys. He lives it up while America is "in the worst economy since the great depression", some leader huh. You'd think the man would show a little restraint in his spending. DISGUSTING!
Lots of obama worshipers here trying to excuse this vacation to Hawaii by obama by saying it is his home. His home is Chicago. Face facts kids, he is spending as much as humanly possible on this vacation , if he wanted to go "home" to vacation he would go to Chicago like Bush went to his ranch in Texas and Reagan went to his in Calif. Those were cheap vacations where the pres went home not to some high priced vacation resort.
What a stupid and pointless thread.
I hear flights to Kenya are cheaper. :lol:

Well as a "rightie" I'd sure like to know what you think I might be desparate about?
Tim-
Touche' :mrgreen:
I apologize for offending one of our Northern brethren.
Yeah, he crashed the economy and called it a day.
Did you forget about the War on Terror?
