The president made the decision to cut short his family vacation on Martha's Vineyard shortly after addressing the nation about the impending danger of Hurricane Irene, which he said has the potential to be "historic."

Obama is expected to arrive back at the White House on Friday evening. His family will remain on the Vineyard through Saturday morning.

So we get to pay for Moochelle’s extra flight on the way back, too. These two are the ultimate entitlement mongers.
