Word is the Obamas have rented a house in the East Chop neighborhood of Oak Bluffs for the last two weeks of August. Coincidentally, Bill and Hillary Clinton, who vacationed at the opposite end of Martha's Vineyard during Bill's presidency,will be on the island at the same time.

Gee, that sure is a coincidence. I still don't believe Hillary took this job for the paycheck or her deep patriotism. Sounds to me like they're going to have a month of working sessions.

Watch the re-runs of their vacation this fall on the reality show, "Wife Swap."

Where does he get his mail?

Remember when Bush got criticized for taking days off? Democrats are the World’s worst collection of phoney hypocrites.

I can remember when the media had its collective panties in a wad over what they saw as Bush’s excessive vacationing.

I am truly looking forward to them giving King Baraq the same treatment.

Bingo. Apparently Michelle likes the company of white, rich liberals.

I vacationed there for years until I couldn’t stand it anymore. The best time I had was watching Red Dawn in the little theater in Edgarstown surrounded by lefties.

There is a small African-American summer settlement in Oak Bluffs, an old Methodist settlement, and a movie about it.

The Obamas probably won't be staying there, but it is a part of the island's history.
