I've got a better idea.

Instead of defunding Obama's vacations, let's throw more money into them.

I'd much rather he be bumping around Disney World with some plastic ears on his head than be back at his desk doing more damage to the country.

He doesn't want to be President any more and we'd be better off. Everybody wins.

Obama's ego and his precious legacy depends on his "fundamental transformation", Scoop. That transformation will include the Government's ability to "change history" (Michelle MO/quote), by censoring any criticism. Per the IRS strongmen, etc.

Obama plans on living in DC after his term. He will NEVER go away. He's all in.

Education is the best way to beat back the Progs. Not the Common Core Statist propaganda version they had hoped to implement. Beck cut em' off at the knees on that one.

Gowdy's so tough and everything... calling people before Congressional panels where he can yell at them in front of a camera, with no fear of like treatment, is so manly and all. His heroism is as obvious as that of a man in an undershirt yelling at his woman for mismanaging the double wide.

If we could force Valarie Jarrett, et al to go on vacation with him, then yes - put them all on vacation. Let em tear up the Hamptons and Martha's Vinyard - hell, even send em to Paris for the rest of the term.

its a really stupid statement by gowdy, just red meat. The "defunding" would have to be approved by the senate and signed by obama. this is just right wing masturbation.

Here is a CNN link saying total disapproval is 53%

Based on your statement it is more popular with R's than D's?

That will put the dem's in a position to ok the lavish vacations the Obama's take. I didn't say it will pass, but I think they do it.

I don't think they are legally paid for anyhow. I'm hearing a lot of grumbling from some Lib's at work about the Queen's vacations.

So you think that the Congressional threat to 'shut down the government, via unfunding'...had to signed by Obama.

Yeah, trying to hold government personnel accountable is pretty dumb. Who does he think he is demanding answers?!?!?

At Gowdy's next press conference on Benghazi people are going to say "Isn't this the same guy who wanted to take the president's vacation away"? "Hmm...I wonder if he's impartial"

What a joke.
