This is all I am saying, I am just waiting for the day someone makes a thread like this about their own party's abuses. That's when I will take their outrage seriously.

It's like vacations started with the Obama's.

Don't think clearing brush on his own ranch is in the same ball park. And I seriously doubt transportation, housing and security expenses for Bush's travels will be 25% of what the King and his queen have spent. And if you add in spring break trips for offspring...

He has been on vacation for a little over 4 years now so figure out those numbers.

And that had been the pattern for decades until now. The presidents would vacation at their ranches or second homes, or go to Camp David. Not anymore.

True. And when you stop and think about it, there's not much to do in Kenya anyway so it is kinda hard to blame Hussein from wanting to spend time at 'home' on vacation.
