[Grunt]

Costs us $3,300 a night.

Not surprised one bit, this family continues to go on countless lavish vacations on our dime like the tax payer money is his own personal bank account. Yet he continues to say we need to cut back spending and taking away from military budgets.

I just hope the G-8 thing doesn't cut into their vacation too much. What a bummer having to actually do some work!

I was in Dublin a couple of years ago. I paid about $150 a night. She should pay more, but she isn't worth that much.

We'll see more of this in the years to come. Seems like January 2017 is a long way out there.

The Clintons were like this too, didn't have two nickels to rub together when they got to Washington, but developed expensive tastes (and never looked back).

This is absolutely ridiculous. In light of the sequester, they this is a slap in the face to taxpayers.

How much is the right amount?

How much is the right amount?

Do you take your family on all your business trips, and does your employer pay for it?

Maybe the Obamas have had their quota of family vacations on the public expense already?

Or pay out of his salary, or their savings, like most Americans have to.

Not only was her room $3300 per night but she also took all of her help. So 30 other people got to stay at the same place for $3300 each room each night.

Typical **it I've come to expect from Barry and his crowd. Literally nothing they do or will do would surprise me.

I read someone that they had cut hot meals for our troops in certain areas.

All I hope for is a plane crash.

Stay classy.

A sleeping bag!

Plenty of grass to chew on to work them teeth down.

There is NO PLACE to sleep worth 3k a night. If I was a billionaire I would never even entertain the thought of spending 3k on a hotel room for a week much less a night. That is stupidest thing I have heard in a while.

I guess when he was saying the rich should pay a little more...It completely escaped me he might be rationalizing his vacation expenses.

That suite you see bridging the gap between the 2 buildings? Michael Jackson paid $25,000 a night for 4 nights. As of last March, it's booked into 2015. I don't know what the regular non celeb rate is.

I stayed in hostel in Dublin, in a private room, for less than 80 euro a night. My ridiculously rich aunt says she only spent $5k total for 3 weeks worth of hotel rooms when she went!
