President Obama tapped taxpayers for a weekend golf trip to Florida -- and merriment flowed aboard Air Force One.
The president split a cold and windy D.C. (temps were in the 30s) and jumped aboard the presidential plane with a throng of friends and support aides. Just minutes later, beers were being tapped. A reporter wrote in a press pool report: "You can tell this is a non work trip ... someone forward of the press cabin ordered 3 beers at 9:26 a.m."
Saturday's round will be Obama 222nd round of golf as president --and the family has taken some 39 vacations since January 2009. According to Air Force documents, Air Force One costs $228,288 per hour to fly, putting the round trip price tag at more than $850,000. And that's just the air fare!

This equals $41,070,000. Michele usually takes a separate plane and I am that her trips have cost us the taxpayers at least this much.
Beer for his men, whiskey for his pilot!
Only joking, of course.
“”Remember folks when you pay your tax bill. You subsidized this. “”
This is priceless - after the Mrs. tripped in Japan!
what college grades - I’m not convinced he even attended
