A FLORIDA DOCTOR'S SUNDAY AD

So, because her husband is President, she and her children are supposed to stay locked up in the White House and not be able to enjoy life? It's not like they can dismiss security. How is this any different from any other first family, Republican or Democrat? I bet if Michelle Obama was white and Republican, this kind of crap wouldn't be posted. I believe George W. set the record for travel by the way. This is typical right wing tactic when there is nothing of substance to criticize.
He or she sounds like a broken recording. I'm black and I can tell you that recent ad makes a lot of sense to this black individual. I can also say that under Obama - there are substantially more people on welfare than there was under any other previous administration.
If it was only one vacation, OK, but they took numerous extended vacations on the taxpayers dime. Most people only get one week vacation the first year of employment, but of course the president can take advantage of his position, although his wife is worse than him.
10:52 Which part of Obama are we being racist? The 50% of him that is white, 12% black or the 37% of him that is arab? All presidents travel. Most do it for business reasons not just vacations. Most other presidents went to Camp David as their get away. The fact that America and Americans are struggling because of the economy and they are taking vacation after vacation is a slap in the face to us all.
First of all...W spent most of his time when he was away from Washington working in HIS office at HIS ranch, not traveling with such a large entourage all over the world. If the economy was doing great nobody would care...there should be a limit to what ANY President and his family can spend on trvel and entertainment. Give any politician a blank check and they will spend it all and then some. At least the President has a term limit, now how about Congress? Please vote!
Wow! Did anybody check this doctor's information before posting this ad? I'd sure like to know what he pays his employees for them to pay that much income tax.I worked for doctors for 15 years and NEVER paid more than $2K a year for income tax. Makes me think his other information is not so accurate as well.
As a CPA his information looks very reasonable. Your individual tax alone is only a small part of the total tax paid for all 7 employees and the doctor. Start with only a 15% income tax rate. Add 4.2% employee FICA tax, 6.2% employer FICA and 2.9% Medicare tax. Total tax rate at minimum is 28.3%. At 28.3% the doctor, his nurses and his NP's need $834,339income or $104,292 average for 8 people including the doctor. So his numbers appear well within reason, as does his message to our profligate president.

i dont understand again what color has to do with anything. money spent is money spent and we all need to work together to conserve it
10:52 is playing the racist card.
