It seems our over-worked President is off on another vacation … this time for over two weeks – seventeen days, to be exact. It seems only yesterday he was on vacation in Massachusetts. Wait! That WAS earlier this year, but it was only eleven days at Martha’s Vineyard.
One would have to surmise that ruining a country is stressful for Obama. It must be all his leading from behind that does it.
Why do we not hear the cries “Imperial Presidency” from the Mainstream Media these days? Two reasons: Obama is not a republican – and — Obama is a socialist democrat — as is the bulk of the Mainstream Media.
Does Obama not realize there is a recession on? The man must be completely tone-deaf to the cries of the average American today. I mean, you would think a person running for President, especially a candidate who swears he is “fighting” for the middle class would be a tad more circumspect when it comes to grandiose vacations and such, but not Obama. You would think that candidate would also be circumspect about spending the taxpayer’s dollars when the country is broke, but again, not Obama.
Its as if the rules don’t apply to Obama. In his arrogance he comes across as being above all that. I mean, act with some class, for heaven’s sake!
People are hurting out here in fly-over country but our President is living it up at great expense to US taxpayers, the very same ones worried over how they are going to pay the rent, put groceries on the table, make the payments on their house or car, and yes – how they are going to afford gifts for their children this Christmas. NOT our illustrious President, however.

FUBO!
The whole country should go on strike every time he takes a day off.
But you won’t hear a whisper of it on any of the MSM outlets. But if he was a an evil Republican...
He’s practicing for 2013.
I look at it as a two week break from his big mouth.
Grifter president. Grifter family. Citizen...shut up, get to work (if you have a job) and pay your taxes. Shut up...move along...there is nothing to see here.
A true President is NEVER on vacation, even when relaxing. They have the “football” with them.
THIS vile person now filling the position between the last real President (GWB)and the NEXT REAL President, has always been on an expensive 4 year vacation at taxpayer’s expense.
Being president would not be so stressful if they followed the constitution.
Nowhere does the constitution grant the president the task of “running the country”. Presidents are supposed to run the executive branch, watch over the legislative process, appoint the judicial branch, and act as point-of-contact for foreign countries.
Stick to that and the job will still be tough, but manageable for a term or so. For instance, the president does not have to write the budget every year, the House is supposed to.
Perhaps it would be easier for us to count the brief and infrequent periods that he works. The number would be much smaller.
Me , too . When does he leave ?
Obama voters look at this as Obama “sticking it to the man”
They heartily endorse it.
but, but this is normal and Bush and Reagan and Clinton vacationed and golfed just as much. That is what all the totally ridiculous top Google search links say.
Can someone get an official database going of Obama’s vacations, golf outings, who went with him and how much it costs tax payers?
I tried with the golfing when I had more time. I had a site called the obama golf project, but ran out of time because I am now a struggling contractor trying to feed my family in this freaking horrible Obama/Democrat economy.
I can forward my database. It has a LOT MORE documented outings than the “official” numbers. (Count his weekends out Camp David - three hole golf course)
If you think the press and the administration lie about the job numbers, you wouldn’t believe how bad they lie about the lazy Bozo’s vacations and golf outings.
BTW, After the Penn State Sandusky locker room/shower scandal, I am convinced that oBozo likes golfing less for hitting balls on the greens, than hitting them in the locker room away from the press and the Secret Service eyes.
I don’t think Michelle gives a flip about what oBozo does. She is getting her mooch on.
He is “sticking it to the man”, but I doubt they believe the extend that he goes to doing it in the golf club house locker rooms away from prying Secret Service eyes....
