President Barack Obama on Thursday firmly rejected any criticism that his worldwide travel on Air Force One or his family's vacations have left him out of touch with Americans' struggles, saying flying aboard the famed official plane is "not my choice."
"The fact of the matter is, I think if you look at my track record, I'm raising a family here. When we travel, we got to travel through Secret Service, and Air Force One, that's not my choice. I think most folks understand how hard I work and how hard this administration is working on behalf of the American people," Obama told KMOV of St Louis. The interview was one of four sessions the White House arranged with local TV in states expected to be battlegrounds in November.
KMOV reporter Larry Conners had told Obama that some of the station's viewers "are complaining, they get frustrated, even angered, when they see the first family jetting around, different vacations and so forth, sometimes maybe, they think, under color of state business and that you're out of touch, that you don't really know what they're experiencing right now."
"Well, I don't know how many viewers you're talking about that say that," Obama countered. "We do hear from some," replied Conners. "I hear from all kinds of viewers about everything," Obama shot back. "I'm sure you do," said Conners.

The White House Insider reported on outbursts at the White House staff by the Wookie last year. She would rant and rage and then angrily sneer, “This country doesn’t deserve us.”
Apparently, she believes it still.

What a TOTAL f'n jerkoff
I’d like to see HRH Hussein sitting in the rear of a C-130 on a jungle air strip for an hour or so in the heat without A/C since he likes riding around in Air Force craft.
nobama is such a poofer whiner. he and his grifter family should be in jail.
I’m reminded of the guy wading through Katrina’s flood water with a tub of Heiniken
No difference at all really
uh, you work? Really?
"Folks" is code for "you people".
I bet I work harder than you, obama, but I don’t get to play golf three times a week and take a vacation twice a month.
So, tell me how rough your life is. YOU asked for the job, so shut up about what you don’t like.
Why don’t you move in with my family for a month? Wouldn’t that be fun? Guess what. Even if you wanted to, I was just kidding. You aren’t welcome. I bet my dog would bite your scrawny ass.
Self-defense.
Nerobama.
Plays golf because he can’t fiddle.
The taste of vomit in my mouth is strong after reading this crap!
Having 0bama as President was NOT my choice.
He took more vacations than any other POTUS. If he repays the taxpayers for his re-election tour which started three days after he took office then its no problem.
This person is nothing more than a freakin crybaby.
Good observation.
Great 0h0m0 posters worthy of the 0h0m0sexual Agenda Ping List!

FUBO!
I never used this famous answer lest 0h0m0 enjoys it. I just can’t believe that our “fellow Americans” who voted IT into office and many of them are willing to drive a stake in the Republic’s heart by reelecting IT!
You are cruel. I almost tossed my lunch...!~~~
