Obama goes on Vacation as Economy Crumbles

[questftbest]

Obama is partying down on vacation and living it up while the rest of the country suffers under his extreme liberalism of spending and expanding government. Obama is soooo in over his head.

k. Moral is an important part of doing one's job, if one is too stressed one can't think clearly. And I'm pretty sure congress doesn't meet every single day anyways. Should he just sit and worry when their not?

Congress doesn't do any work even when they do meet, so why do they need all those vacations?

Then we should be complaining about the lack of effective work they do on the job, not that they're normal people off of it.

Complaining about Congress does nothing, because we keep electing them back into office and wonder why nothing changes.

Well ya, but I was just talkin about where complaints should be levied in the meantime

I see. Unfortunately, Congress doesn't listen to us. If they did, they might be able to remove their heads from their own posteriors and actually try to help the country, but as it stands now, all they want is to posture and call the other side everything but children of God, and we keep footing the bill.

Hmm. I thought all presidents took vacations in August?

Eh. It's our own fault. I've been saying for a while if people just voted out the ineffective ones, we'd be good. I've heard many congressman sorta end up winning by default, which is a state no democracy should find itself in. As it is, they can run wild because we as the people seem to have forgotten who holds the leash in this relationship.

So the playbook is

If Obama does something political then Outrage!

BUT

If Obama doesn't do something political then Outrage!

 

[kiwimac]

But, of course!

Very true again. Still, there is a small amount of hope for this country. If we can just learn to get along with each other, instead of blindly dividing ourselves for absolutely no good reason, we might be able to make the US great again. As it stands now, that seems extremely unlikely, though.

I thought hands-off government was considered a virtue by Conservatives

August already? Must be time for the annual whining about the president's vacation!

Obama Takes A Vacation: Getaway Or Gaffe? : NPR

You guys have to check out the number of vacation days George W Bush had! Wow. And this was during 9/11 and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's simply way above any other president in the last 40 years!

God forbid the man try and stay engaged with his wife and two young daughters. You know Obama's doing awesome when you guys can't find anything real to complain about.

A CEO doesn't run and hide when the going gets tough. The person who sits in the office of the President of the United States needs to be an adult. Little babies need nappies, not grown men.

Obama has repeatedly proven he's a child that can't handle anything, therefore he has to run off and ride his bike, play golf and take his little nappypoo.

Pfffft..... a CEO doesn't run and hide. A CEO (since we're in the habit of making unsubstantiated claims about generalities) has plenty of vacation time to use as he sees fit.



Your economy has been tanking since 2008. Should the man with the most stressful, dangerous and hated job IN THE ENTIRE WORLD, not take a vacation for two whole years?

Calvin Coolidge ran off o go fishing during one of the worst floods to hit the Mississippi River.

Not new for a politician to not care when it is not his problem.

Generally.

That said it would have been nice to hear his plan.
