I guess everyone is on vacation. I was in Alaska last week myself.
Ok, it is apparently the weekend of the royal family's festivities. Obama spends his time in Chicago sans family and many sites around the country are having birthday parties for him. More like a royal celebration than an American president. They even wanted money in lieu of presents for the DNC.
Meanwhile Marie Antionette, I mean Michelle is in Spain with 40 friends flying in a jet used by the Vice-President. That cost us $380,000. The public kicked off public beaches for the Obama party, stores opened after hours, and now she is heading to Majorca. If anyone has been there (I have) in August you will realize what a headache her entourage is going to cause.
The press shreiked plenty about Bush going home to Crawford but stand idlely by for this imperial behavior more suited to a king than a president.
Well that's my scread, offer any comments that you want.
