Taxpayers paying bill for president’s vacations

Published: February 19, 2013 

Wow, we just spent $180,000 to fly President Obama to Florida to play golf with Tiger Woods, and paid $1,000 per hour for those lessons. What a bad example for our children.

And, by the way, we just got through borrowing the millions of dollars to pay for the president’s Christmas vacation in Hawaii! When does he ever accomplish anything? He is either campaigning or vacationing. Where is his sacrifice?

He is always calling for every other American to give up more and more of our assets and freedoms, but he just keeps flushing borrowed millions down the drain on his extravagent vacations for himself and his priviliged family. We must speak up against this terrible use of not just money but presidential leadership that is desperately needed to work with Congress to solve our nation’s financial problems.

May God bless the United States of America, and, please God, grab this president by the shoulders and give him a good shaking. Maybe that will wake him up and get his attention to where it needs to be. America is burning, and the president is fiddling.
