Yes, that is exactly what he is. As was Bush before him and Clinton before him.

Yes, a few dollars in a nation with a GDP of $15 trillion dollars.

And, as I said, this article is specious, it includes "czars" as a part of Clinton's "family" and does not compare the expenditure of other presidents - adjusted for inflation so we have no idea if the money spent is more than other presidents. It is a typical Obama hit piece, short on reasonable fact and long on smear tactics.

I will disagree. Leader of the most powerful nation? Yes. But the synecdoche of representing the free world with the USA quite rightly has Canadians, Europeans, Japanese et al. a bit annoyed with our exceptionalist attitude. Jmo. cn

If we are indeed the most powerful then we lead and others follow. If that is the case then the leader of the country that leads is the leader of the free world.

Simple logic, the free folks tend to do as we .... suggest.

If the author is including the cost of "czars" then he is probably also adding the cost of his cabinet and a whole bunch of other things that aren't rightly called percs in the real world.

this is a bullshit number unless it is compared with other president's costs.

Yeah, he uses AF One, big deal. How would we have him travel? Maybe he could use United first class? Or he could use a smaller plane that has none of the protections, communications and accomodations so he can be effectively out of touch when he travels.

SO if I steal $125,000 from you and give it to someone else to run a movie projector for 2 hours a month it's job creation?

I suppose if I jack your car and give it to the chop shop its job creation for the chop shop guy?

If I punch you in the face and break your jaw, I have created a job for medical personnel, praise God!!!

Liberuls are dumb as two shits nailed together, next they'll start employing shitloads of public sector workers and call it job creation (when if its not necessary is basically welfare by another name). They like to mess with those statistics :p

Why? what is the problem with the leader of the free world and the president of the richest and most powerful country in history spending a few dollars?

There is nothing wrong, but you are expected to get shit done. If anyone is expected above all to do the best job possible, it is the president... It's hard to justify accounting for another 100+mill in debt when you are busy golfing instead of holding meetings concerning the financial state we are in, and how to make real progress.

Which Sony projector do you have? I'm not going digital until there's a LED/LASER version of the VPL-VW1000ES and it has a black floor of no more than 0.00003 foot lamberts.

I'm not getting a projector at all until its like the Holodeck on the Enterprise.

A projector is the only way to watch movies. They need to be big and reflected light. Small and emitted light is lame. Plus, you don't have to go to the theater and and worry about the Joker offing you.

Don't be talking fancy talk like that, you CANNOT beat 1080 progressive scan (also known as "p") on a 40+inch LED.

Been almost 10 years now since I last step foot in one. You guys can have that shit, crappy screens, sticky seats, having to listen to everyone else's bullshit during the entire movie, tickets that are 15 bucks, popcorn and a coke is 20....fuck that shit all to hell. Combine that with all the super heros that cant stand turning off their damn phones for 2 hours because the world needs them so badly for whatever bullshit and I can't believe these things are still in business.

The only thing I can figure that is keeping theaters in business is that there must be some alure to them, specifically by those who would be considered assholes and jerkoffs, because it never failed, the whole damn place was always full of them.
