Obama Defends His Jet-Set Lifestyle
(WND.com) Barack Obama, who is known for jetting off to exotic vacations at taxpayers’ expense, often even sending his family on ahead – also at taxpayer expense, got a little testy when a reporter questioned him about the practice.
“I think most folks understand how hard I work and how hard this administration is working on behalf of the American people,” he said.
The comments came in an interview with Larry Conners of KMOV radio in St. Louis, who asked:
“The economy is a big issue and concern for folks. I mean, the unemployment, trying to make ends meet, gas prices, food prices going up. Some of our viewers are complaining, they get frustrated, even angered, when they see the first family jetting around, different vacations and so forth, sometimes maybe they think under color of state business and that you’re out of touch, that you don’t really know what they’re experiencing right now.”
Obama tried to minimize the question: “Well, I don’t know how many viewers you’re talking about that say that.”
