re: #752 SixDegrees

How many average Americans are President of the United States?

Drop it. This is childish, petty bullshit that’s worthy of the crap shoveled over at the DK and DU. It makes Conservatives look like assholes, and blunts any actual criticism they might make down the road by diluting it with pointless noise.

I don’t have a problem with any private citizen flying someone (Wife, girlfriend, etc.) to NYC on a date, as long as they are paying for it on their own account. But when any elected official, including the President of the United States, does it with the taxpayer’s money, then I would have to object.

Do I have to explain further?
