I wish the Republican party would take the time to research and document every single vacation day, golf outing, and people that attended those vacations and golf outings. Questionable diplomatic trips that seemed like vacations should be documented. All of the the over all cost of all this leisure should be recorded.
I would love for them to do it for each president back to FDR. Do it for all their family members and note whether the trip was with or without the president.
Put it in an easy to search database and include nice pie charts.
We all know the silly and WIDELY publicized (viral media) stat the Journ-O-list apologist put out that shows Obama as having the fewest vacations of any president EVER! is total Bull Crap. For those of us who follow the news daily, we know this clown is always taking vacations.
The RNC should use media clippings, Freedom of Information FIFA filings to document this lazy and wasteful poor excuse for a president. Give us hard facts to turn back the left. Provide links to articles, but save the entire articles in a backed up database.
Just my humble opinion, but I am sick of hearing people who know nothing, make excuses for Obama and point to fake statistics from "an official tracker of Presidential vacations" who is a journ-o-lister.
Please Republican party. Do something productive that will allow us a tool to counter the left with the uninformed voters. You have the money and resource.
I would do it, if I had the time. A few years ago, I had an Obama Golf Tracking Project web site. After 2 years, I had nearly 90 golf outings including the trips to Camp David (3 hole golf course). It was stunning.
RNC, please help. You have the time and resources to do this right. For history sake, stop the left from re-writing it.
The RNC has a “Don’t be mean to Barry” policy. Didn’t you notice that in the last election?
I think Naught.
Cliff’s notes for this puff piece:
Why do bad things always happen to Obama (sniff!)?
Why can’t you people understand that he is just like every other President, doing what Presidents do, and serving his country. Please cut him some slack. He’s doing a great job under difficult circumstances.
The leftist media will always defend its champions as infallible and always denigrate political opponents as thoroughly and hopelessly flawed, and never acknowledge the manifest hypocrisy. SeeBS is the epitome of the glaring double standard that it sincerely believes its audience is incapable of recognizing.
Present tense? Like just this month? First ever vacation?
I am surprised.
Desperation to make Obama look like just a regular president getting some well deserved rest.
Bush held press conferences at the ranch all the time with foreign dignitaries and domestic national officials. Those were real working vacations.
Again, like even TV newsies (FOX included) they only compare “official” vacation days. His fund raising trips are never included in comparison with former presidents.
I would like to see a comparison of “days away from Washington”.
This POS doesn’t know the meaning of rolling up his sleeves at the office. His time spent working is just a distraction to his leisure time, smoozing and being fawned over.
Remember When President Bush Gave Up Golf?
“I don’t want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander-in-chief playing golf,” Bush said. “I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them.”
“And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong message,” Bush said.
Dubya “vacationed” at his own ranch in Crawford, Texas.
Oh how they love covering this “Bush vacationed more than any president” meme with Obama. Every other day Obama is somewhere besides the white hut. He gives a 5 minute speech to some empty headed college students to have the taxpayers cover the costs of the trip then it’s another game of golf and a big shindig with the rich and famous. Those trips don’t get counted on the presidential vacation tally. I love when Mark Levin reads the daily presidential schedule. “11am, meeting with Joe Biden. 2pm: Meet with Advisors” then it’s off to a party. Moochelle travels to exotic expensive resorts for weeks at a time BUT attends some bogus “women’s conference” and tuhduh, the whole trip is paid for by us tax paying chumps and doesn’t get counted on the vacation tally.
The Obamas are shameless grifters and a disgrace to this country.
Who is the guy at See BS “news” who has a brother who works for the Man Child?
Nothing but cover for the Clown.
If Bush were golfing like this, See BS “news” would be leading the lynch mob.
Remember how CBS jumped to Bush 41’s defense every time he went to Kennebunkport?
Nah, me neither.
Big difference from taking your buddies on trips all over the world than going to your ranch or meet vets or doing community work (other than hanging curtains that is)
Used to be CBS would at last zip Obama up when they were done.
Now they’re back so fast they don’t even bother.
SeeBS riding to the defense of their king. What a load.
I really don’t care, in fact, I wish Obama took more vacations.
