let's compare this to previous presidents' vacation costs...at taxpayers expense
http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/bel … ation-hawa
The same left who criticized W. for taking so much time at his Texas ranch have been curiously silent on Obama's every-other-week-it-seems leisure excursions.....
My admiration for such hypocrisy knows no bounds....
So does he actually go on vacation every other week or does it just seem like he goes on vacation every other week? Because I could say it seems like he spends a trillion dollars on hookers and blow every Friday night and he'd come across as a real terrible person, but that wouldn't make my statement factual.
I knew this was comming. This one may get more traction though. Other presidents have taken the same vacation....only spent less. They stayed on the local military bases. Either way I just don't care. It's clear he doesn't.
Well, if you asked Nobel Prize winning Economist Paul Krugman, these sort of expenditures are GOOD for the economy.
However, if you ask someone who makes sense and doesn't twist facts, Krugman is a liar, and these trips are complete wastes of money that show how inefficient and how utterly incapable Government is at regulating itself.
Here's a link to Robert Murphy who shows - using logic - that Paul Krugman is a jerk-nugget liar who has horrendous political leanings.

What was my title? I thought about it and decided that Paul Krugman was the real point of this forum. I do know something about economics, politics and Paul Krugman. I know very little about the products of Summer's Eve. Krugman is a partisan, a warrior for one side and no...

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142 … 57504.htmlThis is bold! This is leadership! Using the recommendations from Obama's own debt commission Ryan constructed this budget. Look for the democrats to demagogue, distract, and disparage this while not bringing forth a reasonable plan of their...
