The Obamas are vacationing in southeastern France...thankfully 10 hours by car from me... and they no doubt deserve it from working so hard. The property they are renting is owned by an American Mormon couple and goes for $58,000 a week. In fact they started a business in France that has an annual revenue of two weeks rent.

Funny thing is the guy who owns the place was the finance guy for Mitt Romney.

The French government is spending 55,000 Euros in security. I don't want to think how much we are spending.

I liked it better when Reagan went to his ranch in CA, Carter went back to Plains, and the Bush's went back to Crawford, TX for their vacations.

That's all from the eastern front.

Pete

Dare I say that's back when I had absolute respect for the office of President of the United States and those who held it.

He should be brought back to America in chains, put on trial for treason, subversion and sedition for payment to Iran, crimes against the current administration, the fast and furious and that's JUST FOR STARTERS! Not even getting into crimes he committed against private citizens. Then be put in prison for the rest of his life (I'm being kind here). PERIOD! He is an evil, despicable, lowlife POS.

The European media has made the Clintons and the Obamas to seem like the Kennedys. Camelot.

So sad. I explain the truth often at dinner parties and the golf course but my Basque neighbors at the farm already get it. Life is easy in a socialist country if you have a better job.

Being so this thread will get axed I'll ask this. The governor of Ill is still in prison for selling his senate seat when he got elected president, does any body think this was the first time it came up for sale?

What I hate the most about obama was that he was in a position to deal a serious blow to racism in the US and instead chose to fan the flames of hate to a higher level. Instead of saying the inflammatory statement, "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon." obama should of said something like" There has been racial tension in our country for far to long, but as evidenced by my own election, most Americans have moved on and we will continue to move on together, into a brighter future, where race won't matter. Martin Luther King's dream that we will not be judged by the color of our skin, but by the content of our character, will be realised."

If obama had spoken up like that, when race was dividing our country, even with his numerous other mistakes, he still would have been a good president, overall, rather than a divisive and terrible president.

Donald Trump’s family’s trips have cost taxpayers nearly as much in a month as Barack Obama’s cost in an entire year.

The US President’s three visits to his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida since his presidential inauguration, combined with his sons’ business trips, reportedly cost $11.3m (£9.1m).

Conservative watchdog Judicial Watch estimated Mr Obama’s travel expenses totalled an average $12.1m in each of his eight years in the White House


And this was all as of Feb 2017!!!

This kind of stuff, whether the Omabas or the trumps, needs to come to and end. And trumps trip to florida cost tens of thousands to the local taxpayers too.

Wow fin, you gotta really hate the acts of the guy in the white house now. I think everyone should wait until he leave office before locking him up, impeachment is a waste of time.

I am all for Obama taking trips far far away from America. At least he's not here spreading his lies and garbage policies to the American people anymore. He just needs to go away........far far away.... and shut up. Maybe then our country has a chance to start to unify! Ok..... rant over!

Obama wasn't all that bad, at least he brought out all the anti-Americans.

The difference is that a high percentage of the Trump's family member trips entail government business. 4 out of the 5 Trump children are adults. 3 of the 5 children and 1 son in law, are active in the administration. Most of the cost of travel for presidential families is from the salaries of Secret Service and local security personnel and other staff, who go on and plan the trips. The Trump children should of course should incur much, much greater travel expenses than the minor, non-working children obama had. The fact that the obama's travel expenses, with their 2 minor, nonworking children and no grandchildren were fairly similar to the travel expenses of Trump's 5 children, their spouses and 9 grandchildren, is proof that the obamas abused the system.

Well we tried selling CDL's all over the U.S. and after the chickens came home to roost, what was we supposed to do for income. So someone got the great idea to sell some property so just sell a senate seat. Aren't they kinda just like a seat on the exchanges. But to answer your question, maybe Obama didn't have to sell his seat, maybe he was getting hot cattle tips from Hilary and making more than just chicken feed. Best tip back in those days was to get a broker to give you winners and his lesser clients the losers. Thank God for electronic trading, at least dealing with the bulls and bears is a little easier now that the hogs aren't playing the old schemes.
