loulou77: Obama was ineffectual due to the senate...not his fault...IMO...Bush should be held accountable for the blunders...Obama inherited an impossible position...economic as well as political...
Trump is not going to save the US...delusional thinking...or Europe...lol...
Change is needed but unlikely Trump will get rid of his staff due to being non-American...or his companies that manufacture outside of the USA for reasons we all know...such a hypocrite...
the right wing began their obstructionist tactics from day one of obama's administration.
trump will never grace the halls of the white house. the better part of america will never vote for him in the general election. many are voting for him in the primaries to put him up against hillary so she can win...

yep,because the Dimmocrats controlled both Houses?
galrads: That destination is ok with me! I believe that Obama's xmas vacation to Hawaii in 2014 cost tax payers ~ 8 million USDs @ $200k per hour in the air.
Of course Chris. I'm not sure if it's a perk and a legitimate one .
lindsyjones: Of course Chris. I'm not sure if it's a perk and a legitimate one .
Not sure why tax payers need to pay for millions of dollars so a president can take a vacation. If the president isn't having an official state lunch, for instance, and POTUS wants a hamburger, he pays for it out of his own pocket. $8 million for a presidential vacation is as absurd imho.

Preposterous if you ask me Chris. Well he forked out 4.1 billion for the refugees and are all inbound.,imagine that.

Seems like Trump protestors have stepped up their negative behavior since the Donald gave his "America First speach. I wonder who is organizing the current protest like the one in Costa Mesa, Ca. I lived in Costa Mesa back while I went to school in SoCa in the mid 70s. I was a nice quiet town back then.

Frist of all Chris, California, the land of fruits and nuts is an almost Democratic in the political institution..Pelosi, Einstein etc. except for Zwarchenegger who was the former governor it is all in the programs of the socialist fascist. I am not surprised at all of such move..But don't worry, the higher they protest, the stronger we get behind him...

There are times that I envy those living in parts of California, especially in the fast paced life of SoCa.... there was always something to do and see there year round.....

Chris I am from the North, in the Bay Area and we do have a lot to do all year round too. So Cal, I couldn't care less, I wouldn't attempt to go there if I'd have no need. Pollution and crowd are my primary reasons of avoiding there.

Phyllis, you live around very beautiful country. I've spent time north of there, mostly in Sonoma when I worked for EPA. There's a lot of high tech business located there. I always found time to venture into the surrounding valleys and taste some good wines.
My favorite places in So Cal were Lake Elsinore, Big Bear Lake, Newport Beach and Corona Del Mar
