I can't stand the guy but to give some reference to the article.

Quote:
State taxpayers paid for Mr. Christie, his wife and two aides to travel to the 2013 Super Bowl in New Orleans, as New Jersey prepared to host the 2014 game. Airfare for four passengers came to $8,146; Mr. Christie’s hotel for three nights cost $3,371.

Quote:
“The Obama family 2013-2014 vacation to Honolulu cost $210,877 per hour for travel alone; at 36.9 total hours, the cost to taxpayers for the vacation's flight expense was $7,781,361.30,”

Christie, wife and aides could have flown back and forth to Nola EVERY SINGLE DAY for almost THREE YEARS to equal the Obama's single trip to Hawaii. But of course the NY Times left that out.

And every president before Obama paid their own way?

Absolutely not, but former Presidents seemed to prefer going home for Christmas like most Americans. I suppose it may be due to wanting to visit extended loved ones something BO has zero of. His failure to show at his grandma's funeral, the woman who raised him and last of his immediate family, speaks volumes regarding the soul or lack of it in this man. Of course he would have had to pay for the flight as he didn't yet have access to Airforce 1.

I suppose living in Chicago, witnessing Obama's meteoric rise in politics using all words and no actions gave me an insight into this 'King with no clothes' that was not known by the rest of the country.

Obama sees himself as a sort of spoiled trophy wife to this country when in fact he is nothing but a money stealing crack whore. A man who is confident saying 'you didn't build that' because he has never built anything in his life.
