Obama-Biden vacation tab reaches $40 million --- $2.9 million alone for
two Obama 2014 golf outings

The travel costs for vacations taken by the first family and the Bidens
have reached over $40 million with the Air Force's revelation that two
golf outings by President Obama this year cost $2.9 million, according
to the taxpayer watchdog group Judicial Watch.
The group said that the Air Force provided documents and records that
put the price of the first family's trip to Key Largo, Fla., in March at
$885,683 just for flying Air Force One. The travel costs to golf in Palm
Springs, Calif., in February, where the president also met with King
Abdullah II of Jordan, was $2,066,594, said the Air Force documents,
according to Judicial Watch.

Judicial Watch has been filing repeated Freedom of Information Act
requests for travel costs and the Air Force has provided many documents
during the administration.
So far, Judicial Watch said that it has tabulated vacation travel costs,
mostly just Air Force jet time, at over $40 million. Far more money is
spent on accommodations, communications, rooms and cars for staff,
security and U.S. Secret Service protection, Navy and Coast Guard ships
offshore and the prepositioning of cars and helicopters, but those costs
are not usually revealed.
“It is clear that the Obamas continually abuse the perks of the
president’s office at taxpayer expense,” said Judicial Watch President
Tom Fitton in a statement to Secrets. “And it is particularly
interesting that Obama has chosen to take not one but two luxury
vacations back-to-back while inveighing against ‘income equality.’
President Obama’s waste of the hard-earned tax dollars of working
Americans on unnecessary luxury travel is an abuse of office.”
Editor's note: Judicial Watch is representing the Washington Examiner in
the newspaper's federal lawsuit seeking access to Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau records under FOIA.
Below is the full release provided by Judicial Watch:
Judicial Watch Obtains Records Revealing Obama’s 2014 Palm Springs
and Key Largo Golf Outings Cost Taxpayers $2,952,278 for Flight Expenses
Alone
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today, it has obtained
records from the U.S. Department of the Air Force revealing that
President Obama’s February 2014 Palm Springs, California, and March 2014
Key Largo, Florida, golf outings cost the taxpayers $2,952,278 for
flight expenses alone.
According to the Department of Air Force documents, the flights to
and from, Palm Springs for the February 17 – 20, 2014 trip totaled 9.8
hours at $210,877 an hour, which comes to a total of $2,066,594.60 in
flight expenses. The records came in response to a Judicial Watch
Freedom of request filed on February 18, 2014.
Also according to the Department of Air Force documents, the total
cost for flights to and from Key Largo, Florida for the March 7 - 9 trip
totaled 4.2 hours at $210,877, which comes to a total of $885,683.40 for
flight in expenses. The records came in response to a Judicial Watch
Freedom of Information Act request filed on March 10, 2014.
Though the administration billed the President’s Day weekend trip
to California as an effort to highlight the state’s severe water
drought, the White House official schedule showed the president spent
just four hours at three drought-related events on the afternoon of
Friday, February 14. He then spent much of the next three days playing
golf at some of Coachella Valley, California’s, most exclusive golf
courses, which, according to Fox News, “consume roughly 17 percent of
all water there, and one quarter of the water pumped out of the region’s
at-risk groundwater aquifer.” Each course uses nearly 1 million gallons
of water a day.
During March 7 – 9, the First Family spent Spring Break at Key
Largo, Florida’s, exclusive Ocean Reef Club, where members must have a
minimum net worth of $35 million to join. According to its website, “the
Club boasts two championship 18-hole courses, a rarity in the Florida
Keys … a salon and spa, more than a dozen restaurants, a 175-slip
marina, a private airport, and so much more.” The costly Spring Break
vacation took place on the heels of Obama’s State of the Union Address
in which he focused on income inequality.
According to records obtained by Judicial Watch, through FOIA
requests and subsequent lawsuits, the Obamas and Bidens have spent more
than $40 million taxpayer dollars on trips since 2009, beginning with
the Obamas' much-publicized New York City "date night" in 2009 up
through the president's most recent Palm Springs and Key Largo golf
outings. The most lavish expenditure so far on record was for the
Obamas’ 2013 Africa trip and Honolulu vacation, which cost taxpayers
$15,885,585.30 in flight expenses alone. The single largest expense for
accommodations was for Michelle Obama's side-trip to Dublin, Ireland,
during the 2013 G-8 conference in Belfast, when she and her entourage
booked 30 rooms at the five-star Shelbourne Hotel, with the first lady
staying in the 1500 square-foot Princess Grace suite at a cost of $3,500
a night. The total cost to taxpayers for the Obamas' Ireland trip was
$7,921,638.66

Bush's "trips" to Iraq and Afghanistan cost *trillions* of dollars and thousand of lives, and harmed the reputation of the U.S. If you are really concerned about wasted money then why not look at that? Or how about the billions the oil industry gets from the U.S.? Or the money Walmart gets. Or McDonald's.

Our prime minister(s) had a history of delaying REQUIRED repairs to 24, Sussex Drive, our equivalent of the White House, because none of them wanted to be credited as the man who used the taxpayer's money for anything which might benefit them personally in any kind of way. Meanwhile, in the United States, presidents spend the taxpayer's money on themselves all of the time and none of them blink an eye about it. If anything, the people themselves advocate their spending by doing and saying absolutely nothing about it. -- Silver Slimer Wikipedia & OpenMedia Supporter 163 Reasons not to deal with Michael "Snit" Glasser, the Prescott Computer Guy http://cosmicpenguin.com/snitlist.html

Obama won for 4 reasons: 1. He is black. 2. The black population is racist and voted for him simply because he is black. 3. Romney is an idiot and has nothing in common with the average person. A trait he never failed to demonstrate. 4. The promise of entitlements, free cell phones, medical, housing, you name it. The lower class and especially the blacks went for this one hook line and sinker. Sorry but it's the truth.

No doubt some voted for him because of his color - just as some voted against him because of his color. He won... and he was *clearly* the better candidate. The scary thing is how many voted for the Republicans running against him. -- * Mint MATE: Trash, Panel, Menu: <http://youtu.be/C0y74FIf7uE> * Mint KDE bugs or Easter eggs? <http://youtu.be/CU-whJQvtfA> * Mint KDE working with folders: <http://youtu.be/7C9nvniOoE0> * Mint KDE creating files: <http://youtu.be/N7-fZJaJUv8> * Mint KDE help: <http://youtu.be/3ikizUd3sa8> * Mint KDE general navigation: <http://youtu.be/t9y14yZtQuI> * Mint / LibreOffice: <http://youtu.be/USU9iqppfto> * Win 8 / Word 2013: <http://youtu.be/z8gUL2TCcV4> * Mavericks / Pages 5.1: <http://youtu.be/D3BPWANQoIk>
