Sandoval Vs Obama: Vacation Time

The liberals in Nevada are making an issue about Gov. Brian Sandoval and his time out of State. He has spent about half of the summer out of Reno and State. So, let's see how Gov. Brian Sandoval has spent his summer and the cost involved:
From the Las Vegas Sun: Following a grueling legislative session, Gov. Brian Sandoval has spent almost half the summer out of state.
For 30 days in June, July and early August, the governor was outside the state — for family trips, to deliver political speeches and on state business, according to records obtained by the Las Vegas Sun through a public records request.
He spent five days traveling to visit troops in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait and four in Utah discussing economic development and water issues with that state’s governor; but he also took a three-day trip to address a Florida county Republican group and spent two days in Seattle to meet with executives of Amazon and Starbucks. The governor also traveled to Oregon, Sacramento and Boise for trips to see his son play baseball and basketball.
Sandoval said despite his absence he is hard at work on the problems facing the state. Much of that time — 12 days — was spent with his family.
“I went to see my son play ball,” Sandoval said Wednesday in his office. “I’m the governor, but I’m also a father and husband. It’s important I show support for (first lady) Kathleen and the kids.”
Sandoval paid for the personal trips and did not claim per diem for meals or expenses, according to his office. The Defense Department paid for his trip overseas, and the Florida county GOP group paid his airfare and hotel for that trip.
His travel cost taxpayers a total of $1,500, including:
• $322.83 total for three nights in Salt Lake City. His airfare was paid for by Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards points.
• $246 total for three nights in the Seattle area. Airfare cost $352.
• $173 for a hotel in Virginia before his Mideast trip, and $406.40 from D.C. back to Reno.

Gov. Sandoval gets a total of $1500 from the taxpayers for 30 days or about $50 a day.
President Obama, on the other hand, has cost the taxpayers over $1500, probably per hour for each hour he has been on vacation.
There is definitely a difference between liberals and conservatives and the Dem's and the GOP.
Sandoval could have milked the taxpayers for more money, but he didn't. Obama could have saved the taxpayers money during his travels but he didn't.
Another reason why Obama will be a 1 term president.
