Lot's of secret service protecting him at the Ranger game tonight. Still wasting tax payers money! I can't believe he went to the game when most of America do not have jobs. King George laughs at Americans who don't have jobs and spends their tax money to protect himself from them.

I think he and Laura and the girls should take a trip to Spain. Maybe stop by the vineyards in Southern France and enjoy a nice bike ride along part of the Tour De France route.
It is well deserved.
The current Ass Clown in office and his entire family needs to just stay in DC and do the peoples business.

Simple fact of the matter is that Presidents are people, too and they should be afforded every opportunity to recreate and tour just like normal people. Because of the job they and their families require extra protection. I have no problem with that. Besides it keep Secret Service agents in a job when everybody else is losing theirs.

And they are Government employees to boot! |

What I can't stand are the overseas trips and what they cost. I think any politician who is not in office, and not on official business, should pay their own way and pay for the security. Trips within the US we pick up the tab for security. |

Joe is petty much on target.
Whether Michelle was insensitive to travel to Spain when she could have had a nice vacation somewhere on the Gulf coast is a judgment call best left to the electorate.

Every living President gets the same treatment...Jimmy Carter running around saving the planet gets the same treatment. That's the cost of doing business so get used to it. |

Sdtosf is a rather clumsy troll. Just ignore this kind of thing. His perspective is that of a young person who is idealistic. I do not think he is trolling. If you can, remember back a great many years win, when we were young and idealistic. The young see the rich sons of bitches who are in control of everything and logically assume that the system is corrupt. I can not disagree with that, because it is totally corrupt. His perspective is not as broad as ours is, so he sees all that money being spent as wasteful, which it is. Yet, Presidents past and present have a right to be people, too. It is just a very sad fact that if they are out in public, they run the risk of being killed simply because they hold the office. The post does not look like a troll to me, but just a young person expressing things as he sees it. |

He may not even have the capacity to be a clumsy troll and does believe what he says. I don't think that either of us would have ever been that uninformed or misguided. |

I would suggest, though, that Secret Service Agents would have few employment problems. I have met many of them and they are truly talented and dedicated people. |

Actually I am cool with George going to the game and Michelle going to Spain. They both need security because of nuts out there who would kill them both if they did not have security. I was just making fun of the extreme right who bashed Michelle's trip. We will fail as a country if the extreme right or extreme left take over. We need to do what is right. This country is tilted a little to right for me. Need to make some changes to get a fair playing field for all. Hopefully Obama can help us non multi millionaires. Actually headed to Costa Del Sol shortly. I will have to check out the beaches there!
