The pattern is to be mean and to belittle others.
And to be short of cruel.

Just like your post above Malloric.
It is full of such off base rudeness and cruelty.

I have said several times that I don't like my taxes going towards the Presidents vacation.
Any President. Past, present, or future.
And so have some others.
And we have the right to believe that, just like you have the right to believe otherwise.

But, some of the people who disagree with this attempt to cut down other posters with such whom don't have the same beliefs as you.

It is really pathetic.

Yet the Obamas who could afford to do such things not only not do a kind deed as such, BUT THEY FORCE TAXPAYERS to pay for their personal pleasures of vacations. So tell me what is the difference between Ray Ray from" da hood" sticking a gun in your face and telling you to give it up, compared to these irreverent arrogant thugs in the White House? Ans: the cowards get the IRS to do their dirty work.
Some people work three jobs so these bottom feeders can jet set around the world. THEY ARE EMBARRASSING.
This post is embarrassing- you know nothing of what they give or to whom. and "FORCE"- honey you need to calm down- and take a pill your BP is up, Govt tax money is allocated by the congress did you not just see how and where it is spent on something called the fiscal budget??

Well, that's kind of too bad. He's a public employee so your tax dollars pay his salary. He's free to use his salary however he wants. If he wants to spend it renting a vacation house in Hawaii for two weeks it's on him.

And yes, I'm making fun of you for your opinion. I'm even belittling you for it. Just like you have a right to express your opinion that you feel your entitled to an opinion how how the President spends his money, I have the right to tell you I think your opinion is dumb. Time to grow up.

Not if you count Obama's memos, which are virtually the same.
