So what?
They rented it.
Big deal.
Are these people making their money no public trust?
Are the bankers he was speaking of?

Doesn't your jealousy, hatred and pettiness bother you at all?
Is your heart really that shriveled?

Get a life.
Its not jealousy...its the hypocrisy and the attack on capitalism by this administration that I despise...

A mere $35,000 a week rental for just the one house. Then there is the house next door (maybe two houses) that he rented for his friends and relatives. Wonder if his aunt from Boston will be there to enjoy Christmas in the warmth of Hawaii.

Yes, he thinks it's not proper that people at the top in private industry make so much money.

I see a double standard here. Anyone?

No complaints about him?
He spent time in Crawford, TX. No one was jealous of anyone who spends time in Crawford, TX.

The individual in Crawford, TX wasn't attacking capitalism or calling people "greedy fat cats" like this administration..

I do not have any problem with the President taking a vacation to where ever he or she wants to go. My problem is with consistency in philosophy. Remember the auto execs who arrived by private plane and the response?

I wonder how the hand picked people attending the jobs summit got there? I know how the people attending Copenhagen got there. It's all about living ones life consistent with ones philosophy.

No, he was diverting as many tax dollars as fast as he could to Big Business. He not only supported unregulated out-of-control capitalism, he encourage it. In his hands it capitalism became nothing short of plain theft.

Well, I got to agree that his message " We all need to tighten our belts" is not credible when he goes on a luxury vacation at the same time. However, that's no news. We've seen this behavior for decades.

Who cares, he's only a figurehead and doesn't do anything for the American people other than bow down to other countries and a puppet for Reid and Pelosi, the King and Queen of the demise of the land of the free.

How do you know the Obama's aren't tightening their belts on this vacation? They'll be there for 10 days. Maybe they would have gone for 14 to 18 days if not for a little "belt tightening." Everything is relative.
