With most Americans struggling to make ends meet and 10% reported unemployment it's good to President Obama is leading by example.

President to Stay at a Motel 6...

Renting the two houses next to his own place for family and friends?!? Wow good to see the POTUS is living large!!! Market value of the house $8.9million and President Hussein is thinking of buying it!!! Glad to see he's got the extra cash laying around.

The man is trying to stimulate housing sales with his own cash, and you give him grief! What's a brother got to do to please America?

Come on now. Bush had a huge ranch, several big shares in business, and was the past OWNER of the Texas Rangers.

I don't think that we should be concerned with what he does with his money, it should be worrying about what he does with your money and this ain't it.

Yeah, but Obama is the 'everyman' president. [/sarcasm]

Obama is the homeboy president. He has swagger like any other politician from Chicago and coupled that with a face that people could relate with.

Who said he's paying for it with his own money? And does the Secret Service and AF One work for free? He's a pimp and we're his *******.

And so was W. when he went to Crawford.

Obama does lead by example. He said not too long ago, "I've never had a helicopter so I don't need a new one." Then he canceled a contract to build a new Marine One. That's real leadership.

Forget the fact it cost 1,500 people their jobs.

How does he afford an $8.9 million vacation house when his reported net worth is $2.1 million? Hmmm, something is fishy here.

Build the helicopter that wasn't needed and you would have said he was wasting tax payer money.

You're right. Doesn't that show you that no matter what everything the O does is wrong?

Who exactly says it wasn't needed? I have no issue with building the president of the United States a new Marine One. They don't just order one of those on a whim.

Glad you can read my mind though. You must be atheist.

Everything I read about it was that if he had replaced his helicopter fleet it would have saved more work in other countries than in our own. Can't we make this stuff 100% in the US? I'd be fine for spending some extra coin on something that was purely American made/manufactured.

I guess they will have to sell helicopters to those that can afford to buy them in the marketplace instead of relying on the public to pay for them.

My wife made an interesting comment yesterday....she said she recalled that one year Bush went to Iran to serve Christmas dinner to our soldiers and this year we have Barry enjoying the best comforts money can buy for his Christmas.
