Listen up, America. With all the bad news about health care, the national debt, the fiscal crisis, the jobs market, no interest on savings accounts and so much more, I find it totally disgusting to read that the president was in Florida golfing with Tiger Woods ("Obama, Woods Hit Links," Feb. 18). Meanwhile the first lady and her children were in Colorado skiing. They just vacationed in Hawaii.

Don't Air Force One and logistics and security cost a lot of tax money?

And then I read where Congress is on a 10-day holiday. What in God's name is going on here?
