Crawford? Geesh. I read the GOP were pissed because O and M went to NYC to dinner and a show. Back and forth to the Crawford ranch had to cost a mint. shit, didn't he go every other weekend?

1. But he had the Western White House there.
So that meant it was cool, don't you know.

3. Commander AWOL Bush set the Guiness Book of World Records for this, far ...
surpassing Ronald 'Asleep-at-the-wheel" Reagan and his astrologer.

Commander AWOL Bush wasted away months at the Imperial Pig Farm Upon Crawford, and thereby failed America completely.

6. Not only did he go there, he STAYED! And don't give me the
Western White House crap. He was in Crawford before, during & after Katrina, and comebody had to give him a CD of pics of the disaster to convince him there was a problem! He went to Crawford to excape people frpm watching him and realizing he was doing NOTHING!

9. Just when I think the bar for hypocrisy is set - they raise it higher.
Talking O down about dinner and show in NY - due to the "austere times"

Hell, they created the "austere times". And were too dumb to realize that Jan 19th was just as doomed as Jan 20th.

12. They're just pissy cuz now they can't tell their wives: Sorry, too busy to take you out
and they are having trouble getting out to see their mistresses and/or stable of hookers.

If Obama can take his best girl out on a Saturday night, with HIS schedule, the party of no can't make excuses to their wives anymore. They may even have to go to ballet or sumthin. :rofl:

Maybe I'm misremembering.

13. He flew from the pig farm to San Diego with a stop in AZ to watch cake melt
And I think that was the day after the hit, but I may be off by one day.

14. Yes he was WHEN the storm hit, but he'd been at his ranch prior to that, and
returned to the ranch after the party.

7. Wonder what they did with the props
You know that little shack, a few bales of hay, and the tractor. :puke:

Don't think they moved it to their new home, do ya? I hated it when whatever reporter was there was standing in front of that bullshit. Nothing but a show.

10. Everyone around thought he'd sell his prop but he isn't. Guess he
Edited on Sun May-31-09 04:39 PM by Laura PourMeADrink
really did like it. I do know someone who was in there. The wagon with the hay is a prop to make the whole
thing look hicky. Inside their real house you'll see crystal chandeliers and fine oriental carpets. All their
furniture was custom made.

15. Yes, I figured as much
That's why all that b.s. they showed outside drove me nuts. Another thing about the house is that's it's top of the line 'green'. I read it somewhere. He should have invited Gore over for a tour. :evilgrin:

28. Maybe the lousy real estate market is why he hasn't sold it yet.
His own economy comes back to bite him.

32. I wonder how many actual trips there were back and forth from
DC to Crawford. I just read that Air Force One cost 68,000 per hour. I don't know how much faster it flies than commercial planes but if it is at least 2 hrs, 4 hours round trip -- that's $272k per trip !
