Angry 9th Circuit Takes Plush Maui Vacation At Taxpayer Expense, As Others Cut Back

Quote:
Judges from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, federal district and bankruptcy courts in nine Western states and two Pacific island territories, along with lawyers practicing in those courts, and court staff, will gather at the luxurious Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa from August 13 - 16, 2012 in what looks like a less than valiant attempt to ensure American justice is being served...at a cost to taxpayers of approximately one million dollars.

From tennis courts to the caddy shack and luau experience, justice will be served in a manner many Americans never get to experience. Breitbart News has reviewed a letter from the offices of the Ranking Member of the Senate Budget Committee, Senator Jeff Sessions, and the offices of Senator Chuck Grassley, the Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, with several detailed questions they want answered by the Ninth District.
Exclusive: 9th Circuit Takes Plush Maui Vacation At Taxpayer Expense, As Others Cut Back

It seems that the 9th district has the obama family's same sense of entitlement. While most in the country can no longer afford nice vacations those in government enjoy tax payer funded luxury. How sad we have such leeches on government payrolls.

What are these "vacations" of which I hear so many people speak when discussing the gentry?

Undermining the Constitution via judicial fiat is hard work. Why do you begrudge them a well earned vacation?
