What City Did Barack Obama Fly To At Taxpayer Expense Yesterday?
“You are not going to be able to give out these big bonuses until you pay taxpayers back. You can’t get corporate jets. You can’t go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayers’ dime. There’s got to be some accountability and some responsibility.”

Obama believes that those CEOs had spent their companies into the ground but that if he spends enough he’ll save the country from ruin. An odd belief, I’ll grant you.
I’m reminded of someone who once said, “In Washington, I guess that’s considered trivial. Outside of Washington, that’s still considered a lot of money.”
Oh… wait. It was Obama who said that. I guess he meant that only for everyone else but him.
Obama went to Las Vegas to sing the praises of his SC nominee – I think his priorities are completely wrong – North Korea declared war on South Korea, and he’s running around the country ‘campaigning’. No wonder our enemies are so boldly testing him – they see him for what he is – weak, ineffective, and only interested in his image. What a loser!
Sweetie, the President does everything at taxpayer expense. That’s part of the job.
And to jump on the hypocrisy train, why weren’t you complaining when Bush flew to his Texas ranch 72 times during his presidency?
Okay, you’re really reaching now…
You want the President of the United States to fly commercial?
This is the most childish non-question in…well, the last hour anyway.
He went to Nellis Air Force Base in Nv, and to Los Angeles.
Hmmm, Las Vegas?
It’s not worth the effort though, people seem not to see the hypocrisy…
Obama is being paraded around like the Celebrity that he is.
Obama is going to save his air miles and pay for the national debt.
Now, that is a GREAT president. He’s the MAN!
You should be happy to pay taxes so the Obamas can fly to the various states and lead us. Obama will save us.
Presidents always fly on the taxpayers dime. How many complained when bush did it so many times to go on vacation?
Come on man, presidents have always flown on the taxpayers dime and thats fine with me, don’t be ridiculous.
For a DNC event! The President flies everywhere on our dime — just as they have for the past 60 years! Obama won the election; get over it.
How about all the Republican officials who do the same thing? Do you think McConnell or Bienner drive home on the weekend. Get a grip.
Oh Bill, Bill, Bill! Bush used Air Force One plenty of times for his own pleasure. It’s a perk that comes with the position.
the Federal government does not live by the same standards that they make us live by .
that is silly Q.
