    Obama stay home!

    • dragoninwater says:

      Or his adopted home, Chicago, where freeloading welfare sucking Obamacare lives matter! haaaaaa

    • Pirate says:

      How are we even supposed to make an effort to see him? Like hide outside of his residence in Kaneohe 24/7?

      • On_My_Turf says:

        That is if they even let you on that street. As of 15th December, all traffic whether by foot or vehicle is subject to search and ID check. You will probably not be allowed in unless a resident has provided your name to the Secret Service. This is similar to the security to get into Pearl Harbor as a civilian.

  2. Pocho says:

    No, let him enjoy his time golfing and doing whatever with Bobby Titcomb likes to do.

  3. noheawilli says:

    Are you kidding? I’m leaving the island for most of the stay, wish I was leaving earlier.

    Wish he’d stay on the East Coast , of America.

  6. lespark says:

    Not only no but hell no.

  7. Bdpapa says:

    No, I will beaming every effort to avoid him. wish them well, but don’t hold up the traffic!

  8. Buckykat says:

    I’ll make every possible effort to stay as far away from him as possible.

    ” B ” is almost off the right side of the page.

    I don’t understand why he cannot land at Hickam, then stay at Hickam where security won’t be as much of an issue. He’s going to go out on the town no matter where he stays and take the whole entourage anyway, so at least make the arrival and departure easier for all.

    • Tita Girl says:

      Why Hickam? Why not Gitmo? Lots of room for him and the entire entourage. The secret service wouldn’t need their own hotel rooms. First class security. Great weather. Close to his pal Raul. Closer to DC and he won’t have to shell out all of that money for the mansion in Kailua. Great fishing…just threw that in, I don’t know if he can handle fishing. Close to his pal Raul. Closer to DC and he won’t have to shell out all of that money for the mansion in Kailua. It would save the taxpayers a bundle. Save HPD the overtime buck$ too.

    • On_My_Turf says:

      Lee Cataluna educated us all on a good adjective on why he needs to shut down an entire neighborhood. She explained what “tantaran” means to those of us who never heard that word before. I never knew what that word meant because I grew up in a very strict and proper household. That word was never used because such behavior was met with severe punishment. Adults never said the word, youngsters never behaved that way. BTW, I know the neighborhood he is shutting down always votes Republican. I am sure his inconveniencing them does not help to change their minds about voting Republican.

  11. YOTARE says:

    The only thing I want to see is his a$$ leaving the White House for good and going back to Chicago where he belongs, amongst his fellow BLM protestors, college professor communists and community agitator radicals.

    If Barry gave two s—- about Hawaii he’d stay on Hickam and spare REAL local people the nightmare that is his perennial Kwanza visit. But NO, why do that, when taxpayers are still footing the bill for his luxury mansion, protective detail and military defense protocols???

      You are a sad little cranky old man aren’t you? I wish you a very happy holiday season and I hope things work better for you in the future.

      • dragoninwater says:

        Cheer up old fart, people are venting at all the gold diggers like yourself. Aren’t you the same male gold digging bum whom married a woman earning twice your income and now gets more than double you six-figure Honolulu government pension you collect? You should be pi$$ed off too!

  12. mijoeca says:

    You can’t be serious with this poll. I don’t know of anyone that would go out of their way to see this person. He should stay in Chicago.

  13. residenttaxpayer says:

    I doubt he’ll come next Christmas since it won’t be on the taxpayers dime so this will be the last year of having to endure road closures and traffic delays……

  14. agile says:

    Excuse me, but just WHERE ARE WE SUPPOSED TO FIND HIM???

  15. saveparadise says:

    Mr. “O”, I hope you are planning some sort of cyber retaliation against the Russkies while enjoying this vacation. Are you going to let the incoming administration handle it and look like the bad/good guys since you don’t know how to respond? The attacks happened under your watch so maybe you and Putinsye should stand toe to toe and trade slaps with white gloves.

  16. sukebesan says:

    All I an say is: GOOD RIDDANCE!

  17. samidunn says:

    Hope it is his last Oahu vacation

  18. 64hoo says:

  19. HAJAA1 says:

    No. But he may want to see me or so I’ve heard.

  20. calentura says:

    I’d rather watch jellyfish dry up on the beach.
