Obama's $4 Million Vacation

What does a 17-day vacation in Hawaii cost?

$4 MILLION!




Contrast that with this e-mail from Obama's 2012 campaign:

Friend --

Beyond the titles, it's easy to forget sometimes that our President and First Lady are, when it comes down to it, regular people like us.

So I'd encourage you right now to enter our contest to do what few people will ever get to do -- not just have dinner with the President and First Lady of the United States, but have dinner with Barack and Michelle Obama.

Here's the link to throw your name in the hat for dinner with Barack and Michelle:

This dinner isn't just some sweepstakes -- it's also a way to help build this campaign just days before our Republican opponents start competing in primaries and caucuses, and inevitably step up their attacks on the President and our campaign.

So make sure to enter before the deadline, and to spread the word to a friend or two -- if someone you tell about this opportunity ends up winning, I'd guess you'd be at the top of their guest list.

Thanks,

Julianna

"Beyond the titles, it's easy to forget sometimes that our President and First Lady are, when it comes down to it, regular people like us."

EXCUSE ME?

That's insane.

Obama and Michelle are not "regular people." They are not "like us."

We fund their lavish lifestyle. The money for their fun comes out of our paychecks.

It's not a matter of forgetting that Obama and Michelle are "regular people like us," because they aren't.
