how much did taxpayers spend to set Bush up in his perpetual Crawford vacation home
GW Bush was the vacation president, spending weeks in his ranch in Crawford TX, even bringing the White House to Crawford but how much did all this cost the taxpayers? He had to bring staff, equipment, satellite, documents etc. No one ever seemed to question it?

1. How about Reagan constantly going to California during crappy 80's economy?
The jackass conservatives have the two biggest vacation Presidents in history and yet they want to bitch and moan right now about Obama going to NYC for a Broadway show? Pretty damn funny.

he is asked how he was involved in torture. Did he approve it? Know about it? Did Cheney give the former prez marching orders? Who did what, when? That's what I want to know, for starters.

3. Semi OT
Hulu is hosting a documentary entitled Crawford. The film explores the effect that Dubya's presence and presidency had on the tiny East Texas town. I highly recommend it.
