When this fool isn't on vacations his smug mug is on television.

In September, while tens of thousands marched on the streets of Washington D.C. to demonstrate their opposition towards the president's domestic agenda, ...

I think that a more accurate characterization would be "hundreds of thousands", if not "in excess of a million".

Obama wants to be “king”, he's not interested in governing, he wants the perks, and recognition. He's the worst kind of politician.... makes me miss Bush everyday.

[DieHard the Hunter]

How can one man “deserve” so much Vacation Time? It seems like every other week he’s off on some vacation or another.

Surely the use of Air Force One and the Secret Service for personal vacation purposes is a “Taxable Benefit” — I wonder if he is paying tax on that. If he isn’t, perhaps he should.

more often than not Obama is the guy who wants to get away when he has to deal with the difficult task

I'd like him to go away too. 2012 can't come soon enough.

Full time jobs are an alien concept to the Left.

It must be incredibly tough on him, having a real job for a whole year straight. I mean, can any of us imagine what that would be like?

"Now its citizens want to get away, but instead of catching a flight, we'll cast a ballot. "

Actually, "away" is the best place to have obama, as he contributes nothing in the form of leadership when he is present.

"Present" seems to be a theme for this guy, we even call him the "pres_ent" on the forum because he has no "ID". As a junior senator, about all he did was vote "present".

He really doesn't need to say anything else, as actions speak louder than words; he has shown us his mettle, or lack thereof, and to try and explain it away now would only amplify his phoniness.

I guess no one explained that when you become "President", it is a life-altering job. You will always be "President" for the rests of your life. You will always be guarded by SS and you're movement will be restricted. It's part of the job...you sign up for life.

Fame has its price, and loss of privacy is one of those prices. If he wanted to be tempermental, he should have been one of those pouty, bad boy rap artists.

He wanted to be president for just some of the people, and to get his hands on the money and power to carry out his radical agenda. Other than that, he acts like this job is actually too much trouble for him.

The world is no longer swooning, the frost is off the pumpkin...reality has set in, and like most EEO products, that's the part that is no longer "fun".

But when you're the president, you can run but you can't hide.

Anything that deviates from his desire to implement his Marxist Policies on the American People is not worth much of his time..

Republicans would be smart to contrast the amount of direct access he has given the media regarding Govt Health Care Socialist takeover with the amount of time he has given on the number 1 job of any President and that is keeping Americans safe from terror attacks....

Obviously Obama would have delayed his vacation to Hawaii to get a deal on Healthcare but wouldn’t cut it short to deal with a terror attack..

Very telling indeed.

Shrug. The media has no one to blame but itself. They elevated 0bama to being higher than Jesus Christ and now they expect him to act like a mere mortal?

Perhaps if they expend the barrels of ink and the years of airtime they devoted to bringing down the country when Bush was president to 0bama instead, then perhaps he might make some time to address those peasants.

[divine_moment_of_facts]

Obama isn’t a Leader.. He’s a Frontman.

[Born In America]

Much like affirmative action puts individuals of lesser talent into positions for which they are not capable, unfortunately, America in it's blind adoration, has perhaps placed itself in a position of dire consequence.

The critical nature of November is paramount in the effort to prevent the complete ruin of America.

No one is stopping you Obama. Be our guest and shuffle your butt right on out the door.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Hey, we can take up a collection and buy hime a ticket to Kenya!

He thought the job would be easy, that everyone would bow down and throw flowers at him, but his ego is taking a beating instead.

Obama only understands Chicago and Chicago type people and they are nothing close to average America.

[Colinsky]

Mr. Obama has been this way from the beginning. Remember a couple years ago when Jimmy Carter sparked controversy by meeting with Hamas? Obama was on the campaign trail and did not want to address the question. “Why can’t I just eat my waffle?” he said.

It is further unfortunate that a media organization like the Post is just now realizing it.

The fact that they're realizing it at all is newsworthy in itself.
