But those closest to the president argue that an above-average president cant vacation like an average American. The editor of Newsweek once declared that President Obama is sort of God and MSNBCs Chris Matthews was nearly brought to tears when he was granted an audience with The One.
Therefore that pricey south side mansion that he got via a sweetheart deal from convicted felon, Resco, is out of the question.

Clearly, these two have succumbed completely to the drug-like allure of all the trappings of the Presidency. Not surprising. They have not the mental make-up to resist it.
Many past first families have understood the addictive nature of all the accouterments, and have noticeably “held back” in the name of symbolism, if not their own psychological well-being.
If ever there were a time to consider the optics, now would be a good time for the Obamas to do so.
Not these two.
Nouveau riche syndrome? They’ll go the way of most lottery winners, and die miserable.

Well, he has family there.
They are all dead but they are family.

Compared to this (which cost taxpayers very little by comparison):
Two presidents, two completely different philosophies on leadership.
And two completely different methods of coverage by the MSM.

Obama on vacation
. Actually, his vacation started on January 20th 2009 and its been on-going ever since. His accomplishments are few, his decisions without angst are non-existent and his ability to lead has proven futile. He is ultimately Chauncey Gardiner, a character out of Jerzy Kosinskis mind who actually became the President of the United States. This presidency will surely go down as the strangest and most meaningless period time in Americas history, other than the strange phenomena of the media making a character out of whole cloth and actually suckering the American public into voting for him twice.

Oh, this is going to be soooooooooo boring for poor Barack.
To: Kaslin
Presidents Coolidge and Eisenhower vacationed in the South Dakota Black Hills. It might do the Obama kids some good to see Mt Rushmore and stop at Wall Drug.
To: miss marmelstein
Well, after all, he deserves it. It’s hard work tearing down the greatest country on Earth. He needs a little time off to reflect on what he’s done (so far).

I think I would rather spend Christmas on a ranch in the country than in warm Hawaii. I could always shoot out to Hawaii after Christmas. :)
This is not GW Bush's property below, but you get the idea...

Last night, either on Greta, Megyn Kelly, or Hannity was one of the liberals and the theme was 0bama's upcoming vacation and she said that the president is never on vacation. I had to laugh when I heard her say that.
While it is normally true, the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania is on vacation. I remember President Bush always working on his ranch, and that doesn't mean when he was cutting the brush at his ranch. Meeting with dignitaries from foreign countries that normally would have come to the White House for meetings is certainly work

I dunno...if you’re there as part of the Secret Service detail, it would be a bit of a Busman’s Holiday. Maybe I’m getting to be a codger, but I’d rather be home for the holidays.
Even Bent-D*** BillyBob spent most of his Christmases at Camp David, IIRC.
