With More Vacation Days and Separate Travel, Price of Obama’s Annual Hawaiian Holiday Rises

BY MALIA ZIMMERMAN - KAILUA, OAHU - The U.S. Secret Service has arrived, street barricades are in place, and the U.S. Coast Guard has stationed itself in the waters surrounding Kailua, Oahu.

That is a sure sign President Barack Obama’s security team is preparing for the first family to arrive in the small beachside community as early as Friday night for what is expected to be a 17-day vacation.

The President and his family are traveling separately to Hawaii because he wants resolve the payroll tax cut issue before leaving Washington – and his wife does not want to wait.

The total cost (based on what is known) for a 17-day round trip vacation to Hawaii for the President and his family and staff and security is an estimated $4,113,038.

With the conditions of a lot of American's this Christmas you would think the President would be more considerate and forgo this overly expensive vacation and stay home.......

Can you imagine how much the same kind of trips will cost for Ron Paul? He would need emergency medical personnel with him at all times, along with special equipment and apparati in case he strokes out or has a heart attack....

George W.Bush’s 2002 vacation......."at his ranch near Crawford, Texas"

George W.Bush’s 2003 vacation..........."on his Texas ranch"

George W.Bush’s August 2005 vacation.....“The president departed Tuesday for his longest stretch yet away from the White House, arriving at his Crawford ranch in the evening to clear brush, visit with family and friends, and tend to some outside-the-Beltway politics."

Has Ron Paul ended all of his congressional perks. Does he pay for his own mailings? Is he taking campaign contributions? If so he's just another liar.

And spare us the whining about the cost of Obamas vacations.

You are whining.  There is a set formula by which the people who are president abide.  If Paul was elected he would have to abide by the same regulations.

Has Ron Paul ended all of his congressional perks.

.......Paul refuses to participate in "immoral" pension system
...........Congressman Paul Returns Unused Portion of Office Budget to US Treasury

Does he pay for his own mailings?

........YEP!

Is he taking campaign contributions?

........Sure he is foo~!  

And spare us the whining about the cost of Obamas vacations.

37 Christmas trees at the Whitehouse, and they won't even be there to enjoy them.

I wonder how many they have in Hawaii?
