After a mid-August trip to America's national parks and a weeklong vacation on Martha's Vineyard, President Obama plans ...

... to take a little more time away from the office next week.

Obama will head to Camp David on Wednesday, September 2, and stay through the weekend, White House spokesman Bill Burton told reporters in a Thursday briefing.

Joking that it may have been "wishful thinking" to suggest Obama's current trip out of Washington would coincide with a news-free week, Burton quipped that the president needs a "break from his vacation."

Have to take the token shot at President George W Bush to excuse their incompetence. GW could have stayed at Crawford for a year w/the $$ its costing us to house them in Marxist Vineyard.

I suspect Obama will not do much of anything except relax and meditate for the next four weeks in honor of Ramadan....

He's not honoring anything. He's just being a shiftless lazy SOB which is par for the course for Obama. Liesurely is Obama personal adverb.

Lets noty forget, with Cogress on vacation, Obama can’t shift the blame for anthing that happens while he’s still there himself. That’s why he’s running away at least until Congress comes back to be able to run behind their skirts.

maybe he’s having a mid-life crisis? maybe he needs counseling from a panel of health experts? maybe he thinks this is europe where it is ok to take a vacation for weeks and weeks and slack off the rest of the year?

They could have put Rodney King in the WH to lipsinc the part for what we are getting out of this act by “0 and the Dems”.

[ari-freedom]

why take a vacation for ramadan when you’re not going to fast?

[ari-freedom]

hey look. We LIKE the fact obama’s on vacation. It’s the left that’s ticked off he’s just relaxing while his obamacare is left to rot.

"As I recall, the previous president [took] quite a bit of vacation himself, and I don't think anyone bemoaned that," Burton said.

Oh, pleeze!

That idiot gap-toothed Burton is a lying lunatic...first, George W didn't take a 10th as many vacations as obama has...and secondly, the media bitched about those he did take constantly!!!

BS

[top 2 toe red]

Says you.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Then count on his ‘vacations’ being unexpectedly extended, LOL!

[kabar]

Obama has no religion. He is a sociopath and a narcissist. The only reason he went to Rev Wright's church was to advance his political career. The only one he worships is himself.

[top 2 toe red]

yeah...maybe he just can't seem to shake the blues. Maybe he is being a financial drain on his family country. Maybe he's dependent on others to get around. etc., etc., etc.

[top 2 toe red]

All true.

However...obama was likely a muslim when he was in school in Indonesia...thus, in name he would still be a muslim.

[Palladin]

They are not Muslims and they are not Christians.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

I agree somewhat. They went to Wright’s Church because he practices radical black liberation theology.

This is the 0bama’s religion.

We were all warned in so many ways. Why/how could the MSM ignore this video? click here

[wireplay]

Nail on the head reply. I never thought he was a Muslim because that would put a God above him.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Is Soros on vacation too?

Inquiring minds want to know

[keats5]

That I believe.
