Mostly the expected rehashing of yet another multimillion dollar vacation at out expense. Then this unintentionally funny tidbit caught my eye:

It's unclear why the president is returning home on the 18th, though the school where his daughters attend, Sidwell Friends, said that is when practice for winter sports begins. Both Malia and Sasha play basketball just like their dad.

Actually, they probably play better than their dad.

I think that since they are probably two of the few blacks at this lily white elitist school. They are automatically put on the basketball team. Talk about stereotyping!

Why is this even news? Nothing to see here. He is the ruling class and he deserves these luxuries as compensation for supporting all “the little people”

These stories make no difference to anyone. Liberals don’t care ( lets blame only evil corporations) and conservatives are powerless to change this behavior as they have been betrayed by their representatives who merely desire to partake of the same tax-payer funded niceties.

So on we worked, and waited for the light,
And went without the meat, and cursed the bread;

Nice to know someone's having a good time in this economy. It fills the hearts of the Little People to see Dear Leader happy.

The MSM reporters love to cover Obama’s vacations. They go to all the plush places unlike a ranch in the middle of Texas.

Must be coming up on a billion so far, or maybe closer to the 2 billion mark.

Can you remember when the failed main stream "news" media whined and snivelled every time George W. Bush flew to Texas for three or four days and stayed at his own ranch?

The shameless sycophants of the former free press seem determined to drive away the very last of their customers.

St. Louis Reporter Larry Conners questioned Obama in 2012 about resentment among voters of his lavish taxpayer-funded vacationing, and was harassed by the IRS as a result.
