JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH!!!! I am paying for Hawaii County Police officers to protect Nazi Nancy. I honestly did not think it could get any worse than having her here on my island holding whatever meetings she is holding (it’s all very top secret you know), but it has. While we are pouring salt in open wounds, I am blessed with the honor of helping to pay for Bambi’s security detail besides paying for “the entire corps of White House correspondents, domestic and international has been invited (with a guest of their choice), to follow the Obamas under the sun at the American taxpayer expense.”

Are you enjoying the privilege of paying for reporters to vacation here in Hawaii for two weeks on your hard earned money?
Heightened Security Detail Costs for Speaker Pelosi and President Obama Will Fall on Local Taxpayers
As President Barack Obama vacations in three private rented homes in Kailua, Oahu, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is also on vacation on another main Hawaiian island – the Big Island of Hawaii.
In response to Hawaii Reporter’s inquiry as to whether she is here for business, or pleasure, whether she will have any public events or meetings, and whether she took a private government charter or traveled commercial, Drew Hammill in her office sent this reply:
“The Speaker traveled to Hawaii at her own expense on commercial air.”
That really answered the question, didn’t it? My spidey sense says that Pelosi is up to something considering there are far more elitist resorts on Kauai, and it’s closer to Oahu.
As with the president’s visit, Pelosi is being escorted by local police officers.
The county of Hawaii would not release the number of police officers escorting Pelosi, how many hours they are dedicating to Pelosi’s security detail, the cost to local taxpayers or whether they were being pulled from other duties.
Hawaii Reporter’s media inquiry was directed by the county police to the U.S. Capitol Police and Pelosi’s office.
Pelosi’ office also refused to provide the answers to these questions: “For security reasons, I cannot disclose information regarding her travel dates and any security arrangements mandated by the House Sergeant at Arms,” Hammill writes.
Chris Loo, media specialist for the Hawaii Police Department, writes: “After the visit is pau, you may send a written request to the chief to seek information about any costs incurred by the county.”
Now I’m wondering if the reporter is going to have to make an appointment and pay the fee to see the chief to get answers to her questions.
Meanwhile on Oahu, though the Honolulu Police Department would not release the details of the police detail or the number of officers working for security reasons, the cost for Obama’s police escorts are expected to exceed last year’s $107,000, because last year, he was the president elect and not the president.
The $107,000 for police escorts was not reimbursed by the federal government, nor will it be during this year’s visit, a Honolulu Police Department spokesperson told Hawaii Reporter.
The Honolulu Police Department has no plans to ask the county council for emergency funding to cover either this visit or the past visit, both unexpected expenses. But since Obama has expressed interest in returning to Hawaii during future holidays, a police spokesperson says they may budget for his visits in future budget requests.
The visits by both Pelosi and Obama are coming at a time when county mayors and their departments are looking for ways to cut back on expenses and considering tax hikes because of shrinking tax revenues and the proposed plan by Gov. Linda Lingle to take all four county’s share of the visitor tax to balance the state budget.
That’s one hell of a Christmas present from the progressive socialists, doncha think? Meanwhile, this is where Nancy is staying…(I hope she is footing the bill, but I think it unlikely).

I wonder if Soros is sporting a lei this week too?
Maybe Nancy came over to help Obama prepare his response to the Top Ten Reasons it took Obama 3 days to respond to terror attempt.

Does anyone remember what happened to the Russian Czar in 1918? Does one think that “Queen Nancy”, & “Barry & the 1st Bitch” and headed in that direction? OH I hope so!!
Yes indeed, the lessons of the *Czars* seem long forgotten by these depraved morons, as do those of the French Revolution. Fortunately, there are plenty who do remember.
and no one locally did nothing to voice our grievances .
Some things were ’suggested ‘ , but only in the form of single
disgruntled e-mails or inferences that “Somebody should do something!”
The only way we shall truly get our country back and change current trends to
start DOING THINGS and to KEEP DOING THEM . Not to sit around on our okoles and expect others to do them , or to hold your hand if you think you ‘might want to do something’ Sitting at home and tapping away on the computer is all well and good , but it is not like putting your boots on and getting your ass out there .
So we had a great chance . We chose to basically do nothing .Again….
Patrick – I’m choosing to expend my energy on the battles I have a chance of winning. Protesting Nancy when one cannot get within a mile of her would be a waste – and considering about 95% of the island is of entitlement mindset, I’m thinking spending my energy on the 2010 elections is a great idea. I have not forgotten about the special election for Abercrombie’s seat either. Now that’s a battle that I will be helping to wage.
Any date for the election yet?
Nope – I do believe Nancy was here for something altogether different…and I do believe she was flying in a private jet – no matter what her office said.
