It must be sweet to be TOPUS, “Date Night” in the “Big Apple” on the country's nickel, weekend in Paris, again on the country's nickel. It sure must be fun for a pour kid from Kenya, with a dysfunctional family, a mysterious upbringing, mysterious mentores in ACORN, and lots of radical pals.

I can only imagine what the calls will be to the pals, like: Bro, can you believe we're in Paris on the "company" nickel?

Someone somewhere is working on a golden crown for Zer0.

I'm going to barf, then try to go to sleep, still sick to my stomach.

Any chance he’ll stay there?


My thot exactly—maybe he will enjoy it so much he will retire early since he has “accomplished so much” in first 100 days—moved that debt right up to 11 TRILLION and all.

Then he can spend all the time he wants on date nites with Michelle and family nites with the girls—all on his own nickle and not at the country’s peril.

He can spend the rest of his term on vacation AFAIC. As long as he quits running down the USA while he’s gone.

I doubt that will happen.

This REALLY sux ...

FIRST, they got “date night” in NYC for somewhere between $250K-$500K.

I previously posted that I would not mind that much IF he had been in NYC for LEGITIMATE business and then wanted to take in dinner and a show as an “extra” ...

NOW, he goes to the Middle East BUT Michelle and kidz couldn’t go with him?

IF they took a couple of days off from school and went with him, then they could fly with him to France for the D-Day remembrance. THEN they could ALL fly home together.

It would have SAVED so much money ...

As it is, Michelle and kidz have to fly on a separate jet to France, THEN they fly back with Obama after the D-Day thing, AND the second plane DEADHEADS it back to the US EMPTY.

This guy sure has a lot of free time. I guess being Present just isn't an important job. Not like it use to be.
 
I hope I don't have endure shrieks from people that he is taking to many vacations and treats his job very leisurely.  /s

Well not exactly. I guess the second plane will carry Michelle and the kids back. This is from the article,

"He is scheduled to return to the White House on Sunday, but Mrs. Obama and the girls planned to linger in Paris."

Nice work if you can get it
