Convenient that Obama has time to play golf but no time for wounded veterans.

"Former President George W. Bush charged $100,000 to speak at a charity fundraiser for U.S. military veterans severely wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan, and former First Lady Laura Bush collected $50,000 to appear a year earlier, officials of the Texas-based Helping a Hero charity confirmed to ABC News.:


The former President was also provided with a private jet to travel to Houston at a cost of $20,000, the officials said.
But he did them a big favor by giving them a discount.

isadore;1739889 wrote:gosh a ruddies its not the collection of fees but from whom, it is the fact he sent these service people into to be terribly wounded and then charged their charity to hundred thousand dollars to speak for them.

isadore;1739886 wrote:However, compared to past presidents, Obama has taken relatively few vacation days. At this point in his second term, former President George W. Bush had taken a whopping 405 vacation days. Before him, Bill Clinton took a total of 174 days for himself. Another big vacationer was Ronald Reagan, who took a total of 390 days during his time in office. In comparison, Obama has only taken 161 vacation days to date.

Richard "I am not a crook" Nixon, George "Read my lips, no new taxes" Bush, or George "WMDs in Iraq" Bush. You are wrong as usual.
