Guest Patriot Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 zerO's back from his 2 week taxpayer funded vacation in Hawaii. BTW, Bush never vacationed over Christmas. He preferred to allow all the people required to travel with the president to be with their own families at Christmas. But then again, zerO is not the man GWB is.

Guest Guest Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 No, Bush just took the rest of the year off. "The president vacationed at Christmastime, when Congress wasn't in session. How dare he!" Gotta admit, that's sets a new standard for stupid. Do you stay up nights thinking up the stupidest argument you can think of?

Guest A Proud American Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Junior spent 367 days vacationing between Maine and his ranch and did spend at-least one Christmas in Texas. Obama has spent 92 days on vacation and since he doesn't own a vacation home he stays at a friends home. And, you're right Obama isn't the man Bush was. He actually works unlike Junior.

Guest ThemTheFacts Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Right wingers need to get a real issue. But if you really want to compare vacation costs, then W is not your man: The problem is that George W. Bush wasn’t thrifty. He was the most expensive vacation president in US history. Not only did Bush spend more days on vacation than any other president, but he used Air Force One more often while on vacation than any other president. During Bush’s two terms, the cost of operating Air Force One ranged from $56,800 to $68,000 an hour. Bush used Air Force One 77 times to go to his ranch in Crawford, TX. Using the low end cost of $56,800, Media Matters calculated that each trip to Crawford cost taxpayers $259,687 each time, and $20 million total for Bush’s ranch flights.
