Like Obama says, "We all have to make sacrifices".

According to the Hawaii Reporter, the bill for the $1.5m trip included:
$63,000 on an early flight bringing Mrs Obama and the children to Hawaii ahead of the President.
$1,000,000 on Mr Obama’s return trip from Washington on Air Force One.
$38,000 for the ‘Winter White House’ beach property rental.
$16,000 to rent nearby homes for Secret Service and Navy Seals.
$134,000 for 24 White House staff to stay at the Moana Hotel.
$251,000 in police overtime.
$10,000 for an ambulance to be on hand at all times
It's not his fault? Whose fault is it? Let me guess - it is Bush's fault! You don't need to get it from the Enquirer, it is all over the Internet and the news outlets that dare to report on the man they helped get elected. In addition to lavish vacations the Obamas enjoy having concerts with big stars at the White House. They also do Wed night parties at the White House featuring Kobe beef and other expensive delights. Then, when he talks to the public, Obama says the rich must pay their fair share, that they are greedy. He actually denegrates the very people that he parties with and that voted for him. At least most of these rich people are flying around in their OWN jets and paying for their OWN vacations. Bush WAS hammered by the press when he took vacation even though most of his vacations were to his house in Texas where he went to chop wood. Obama is no man of the people and he is the worst president in my lifetime. His policies are destroying the US, but that's his goal...
