Carbon Footprints be damned

The Morning Sentinel covered the arrival of the President into Maine - in their coverage was the following quote - "Arriving in a small jet before the Obamas was the first dog, Bo, a Portuguese water dog given as a present by the late U.S. Sen Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.; and the president's personal aide Reggie Love, who chatted with Baldacci."


I do not begrudge the President another vacation.  But isn't this the same guy who would like to impose "cap and trade" to solve global warming?   What kind of carbon footprint is that?  Reggie Love,by the way, is the houseboy for the president who receives over $100 K in salary.  he does have a degree from Duke and was a forward for the Blue Devils.  The description may be a bit harsh - but his description in the Wikipedia page on his says his job is to anticipate the President's every need.   


I guess that is the definition of change.  Not one I would have expected.
