Barack Obama had the family dog Bo flown to Maine in a separate government jet for the Obama family's vacation weekend, according to news reports.
Arriving in a small jet before the Obamas was the first dog, Bo, a Portuguese water dog given as a present by the late U.S. Sen Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.; and the president's personal aide Reggie Love.
BTW, Obama's aide Reggie Love gets paid $102,000 per year of taxpayers' money to handle Bo and hold Obama's ice cream cones, among other highly sought after well-paid jobs skills.

NOTE: The Obama's took two jets to Maine as the airport was too small for Air Force. One for the dog and his $102,000 a year handler and a few other aides.
Why take your dog on a weekend vacation? How much did this trip cost the taxpayers? We will bet we never hear a peep out of the media as to the cost to the taxpayer. Pres Bush flew home to Crawford where he had an office to handle Presidential affairs while Obama keeps interupting other people's lives with his vacations but yet the media went after Bush. Makes no sense. What happened to Obama going home to visit his home in Chicago -- once in almost 18 months.

Did you ever "analyze" the Bush family vacations?
There is one slight difference -- Pres Bush spent most of his vacations in Crawford TX except for the once a year outing up in Maine at the family compound. He went home where he had an office set up to continue to work. You saw him out working on his ranch.
Why don't you analyze how many trips that Clinton or Bush made overseas in AF One. You didn't see the Bush family touring the National Parks of the West at the taxpayer expense or the Bush's going for a date night in NY.
Thanks for the opportunity to point out that the Obama Family has been back to their home in Chicago once since Feb 2009 to spend the night. They prefer to hang out where they can upset other people's vacation plans it seems.
Also Barney traveled with the Bush's not on a separate plane.
Yes the Bushes went home to their ranch in Crawford Texas and didn't make the tax payer pay for one cent of it.
When will you people wake the heck up. This hasn't anything to do with skin type, it has to do with lying, being insincere, not practicing what they preach, taking advantage of a situation, thinking they are better than everyone else, borrowing money from china, raising the national debt, and not being willing to sacrifice anything! He and his wife make me ill. They are disingenuous beverly hillbillies.
AND YOU ARE PAYING FOR IT YOU FOOL.
