Then Google search your rebuttles. For instance, I notice there is a bit regarding President Obama's vacation time and expenses. A quick search just now turned up that he has spent far less time and cash on his vacations than did Presidents Regan or Bush. Does this person take issue with all but President Clinton who took far less vacation time than Obama or Bush or Regan?
