1%-er President Heads To Hawaii For 17-Day Paid Vacay...

It’s amusing the OP is unaware of the internet, computers, GPS, wireless technology, and so on.

A president needn’t be in the WH to do his job. Indeed, no president goes on ‘vacation.’ That’s why I never paid any attention to that nonsense about GWB always being on ‘vacation.’

The only thing a president ‘gets away from’ is ceremonial appearances, speeches, and the like. Otherwise it’s business as usual.

These days a president is never truly on "vacation." This has been a true statement for decades now. Hell, if it wasn't for the funerals of foreign dignitaries we would't need a vice-president.

It was a bullshit discussion during Bush, it's a bullshit discussion now.

I totally agree. I'm just having some fun with all the Socialists/Progressives here who are so obsessed with hating those "Evil Rich 1%-ers."

 

[Steelplate]

The Socialists/Progressives here sure do express a who lot of hate towards those damn evil 1%-ers no? I would think they would agree that the evil 1%-ers do not deserve Vacations. Is it just me? They're all over the place on this stuff. Can't keep up with em.

Remember the other day when I called you "rational"? I take it back... you're just another douche bag. The Bildebergers? C'mon... I watched Zeitgeist... a similar flick that was pointed at Bush and it took me all of 15 minutes to realize the bullshit it was.

Just out of curiosity... if you are so against this New World Order, why do you love the 1%ers so much? These entities such as the Bildebergers are very much the types of people that OWS is protesting against. Rich people buying our elections and calling in their chips after the elections are over.

You'd make a great liberal... if you weren't so fucking crazy.

Is Congress taking a vacation? Yes. Has every president taken vacations? Yes. Nothing new here. Faux outrage noted.

Uhmmmm survey says........not quite;

"We’re going to keep pushing Congress to make this happen," Obama said. "They shouldn’t go home for the holidays until they get this done."

Obama: Congress 'shouldn't go home' until payroll tax cut is extended - The Hill's Video

"We're" hes in Hawaii.

If I had his money and could get the taxpayer to jetset me all over t he place I would too.

 

[The T]

I LIKE it when THIS President takes vacation time. I may only get two weeks. You might only get two weeks. But hell. I don't begrudge him taking a few extra days.

In fact, I prefer it when he is on vacation.

The longer, the better.

I wish he'd take a trip to his old childhood school in Jakarta in fact.

Call it a working vacation.

Maybe we could get a third autobiography out of the guy.

Ghostwritten of course...

Not surprisingly, we didn't do this thread in 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2002, or 2001. I wonder why?

Go ahead.... compare the number of vacations and where he went, and what was spent.

Im sure Laura Bush never took a flight on her own AF1 four hours ahead of George with separate planes either

How about YOU campare, you fucking crybaby. And while you're at it, go fuck yourself. Moron.

Infidel has a point...your address of it is not addressing at all.

The president sayts Congress needs to stay put and do his bidding as he jets off...Remains un engaged...Really?

 

[Immanuel]

"What do you think about this?"

If and when the President is truly on vacation away from the job without having to deal with the pressures of the job then I will consider this question.

I don't care where the President is, he is not on vacation.

Didn't we do this thread last year?
And the year before that?

Didn't we do this thread the last time he was on "vacation"? I don't begrudge him the chance to get away from Washington to relieve a little bit of stress. Hell, I think we are better off if he is allowed to relieve some stress.

Perhaps he should be like Herman " the one eyed German" Cain and just sexually harass women to relieve his stress. It seems to be in vogue now with the wingers, since it isn't Clinton this time.

 

[Oldstyle]

What difference does it make if Obama is in Washington or Hawaii...it's not like he's doing anything anyways.

He's been on "vacation" for the past year and a half.

Hey twat, you joined this year you water carrying clown, what would you know about what was said in those 7 years? You like that faggot barry don't you, have you enjoyed spending time with him in his favorite Chicago bath house? I guess gay sex is becoming more attractive in the black world..........no kids to not take responsibility for.

 

[Steelplate]

wow... I think someone's hiding his own sexual preference with his vapid anti-gay rhetoric.

 

[Oldstyle]

Why would you refer to Barack Obama as a faggot? He's an uninspired President who's in way over his head with the job he has, but the sexually derogative insults are over the top. Barack's not a bad guy...he's just not a chief executive and never will be.

That asshole is never in Washington, he lives on Air Force One......... I can't say I blame him, having to share the White House with that giant assed, screaming jerk and her mother must be tough when all he wants is some alone time with a dozen bath house lovers.

you are right, the media did it for you.

 

[gallantwarrior]

Obama taking millions in contributions from Wall Street and backing their interests, that concerns me.

Obama taking a vacation in Hawaii, that does not.

His vacations are far less disturbing than all the other damage he does. Alas, we will now have to be concerned about yet another vacation. I'd like to see the OWS folks converge on Congress and blockade those mothers in the Capitol building until they do their jobs. Even if it means they miss their precious holiday vacations.

But Laura actually liked George!

Okay.

Presidential vacations: How does Obama compare? - CBS News

From August:

There has been criticism of the president's vacation at this time. But how does the number of vacation days the president has spent compare to his predecessors? CBS Radio's Mark Knoller has kept track of presidential vacations for years and supplied the data.

So far, President Obama has taken 61 vacation days after 31 months in office. At this point in their presidencies, George W. Bush had spent 180 days at his ranch where his staff often joined him for meetings. And Ronald Reagan had taken 112 vacation days at his ranch.
