This why guys around here are a bunch of idiots. The man is President of the US. We already paid for all of that when we decided to have a modern imperial president. The AF1 is paid for as is the staff to fly it and so forth. Bush's visits to Crawford were even more expensive. If you knew how much it cost in secret service time for the man to walk down the hall and use the John you would we whining at how much a Presidential pee costs.

It is not as though the man can just walk to Union Station with his wife and catch the train. Sheesh. All of the communications and intelligence support and security go wherever he goes 24hrs a day. He could go spend a "free" holiday with the best paying lobbyist in town and it will still cost you the same, save one of the two dozen rooms in the hotel that his staff takes whenever he travels.

Gee you are a very articulate apologist for Obamachev. Seems to me it comes easily for you.

As for me, I resent him using the presidency so that he can act like a billionaire on the taxpayers dime.
