Well, he will delay the vacation until unemployment benefits are extended...

But otherwise, is planning to spend $2.5 million more of taxpayers' money than he did last year.

Too bad he is not the frugal sort to just relax at a ranch and open a can of beer...

I think the president of the greatest country in the free world deserves it.

Congress however can pay their own way and I would take away their obscene amount of vacation days.

Of course it would be a commie that qualifies that accolade.

Semantics.

Also, Communism does not mean absence of freedom.

So that is why all those North Koreans are crying?

To celebrate the freedom(s) that they have in their lives?

Your narrow viewpoint does not surprise me and does nothing to restore my faith in our education system.

What it does prove to me however is that mind control is a very real thing.

Not sure how much, if any, Freedom(s) they have, if they are not even allowed to leave the country, should they desire to do so.
