The question we should be asking ourselves is why didn't president Bozo stop and visit our allies Poland and the Ukraine? He kisses Putin's bum but ignores our allies.

the Obama crush and root for impeachment!
Impeachment, give me a break! Just in case it hasn't been brought to your attention before, a president must commit a crime in order to be impeached. You and I both know, Obama hasn't committed any crimes. Those Republican idiots lost the election, get over it.

He's been President for less than six months. You've got a long road ahead of you.

I'll pick on whoever I damn well please! Sarah Palin lived large at the Alaskan tax payers expense. But did you say anything when she was charging the state a per diem to stay in her own damn house? of course not. Did you care that Bush was traveling to his ranch every week at the taxpayers expense? Please, you could care less. Now your just pissed because the American people woke up and realized the Republicans were ****ing up the country and threw those *******s out. Your bitter and just want to pick a fight with someone.

My understanding is that she is the most popular Republican right now. Some might say she's the current leader of the Republican Party. She's still very much a part of the picture.

We can't just talk about Obama in a vacuum. I actually don't begrudge Bush, Reagan, or any other president taking their families along with them. I think you just started following policitcs in the last six months, when Obama became president, or you'd know about this stuff.

Here's a link from the Bejing Olympics. I'd note, too, that one of the Bush daughter's boyfriends (now husband) was with them an awful lot.

Sorry, but I'm not going to spend all night googling on the computer b/c you refuse to believe that Obama is just following precedent.

Laura Bush, her daughter, Barbara, and members of the U.S. Olympic Delegation, cheer on American Speed Skater Chad Hedrick Saturday, Feb. 11, 2006, during his heat at the 2006 U.S. Winter Olympics, in Turin, Italy. Hedrick went on to win the first go

Considering the state of our country's economy, this is NOT a minor concern....these expenses add up. He needs to be setting an example on how to cut costs and avoid unnecessary governmental spending.

The Obamas are paying for their own travel, and I think it is a wonderful thing to be able to show your children the world.

One of these days one of the girls may want to follow in her Father's footsteps. The things learned about foreign countries on trips with the POTUS can't be anything but beneficial.

Even if the taxpayers were footing the bill, it would be fine by me. I would consider the expense to be an investment in the future of America.

I believe the expenses are being paid for out of his own pocket. This is much ado about nothing (as usual).
