Obama, family head to beach on Martha's Vineyard

some facts would be nice as in exactly how many days? facts just screw up a liberals argument everytime, here's the real figures from my earlier posts on the this.
"its not unusual at all, its the norm for this clown. he's either going on or coming home from vacation and plays golf in between-->while the country is falling to pieces!
of course there's always those that will say look at bush...blahblahblah the liberal media made such an issue about bush golfing while americans were dying in a time of war, he quit playing. obama is in 3 wars now, one of which he started and is doing so now against the law of the land, so under the big O americans are still dying and now losing thier jobs, their homes, their retirement etc etc etc and you won't hear squat from the gutless liberal press SOOOOOOOOO....... just how much time obama spends actually working compared to bush?
in the first 3 years of their administrations this is how they stack up Obama: 48 days on vacation:Chicago (twice) and Asheville, N.C., for long weekends; Hawaii, a week and Martha's Vineyard for over two weeks. in addition he as taken 39th round of golf since he took office (and his 7th since the start of the oil spill on April 20th)" which is over 2 times per month. 33 gala night events away from the White House.
Some are quasi-business related, but also include date nights with the first lady at the best restaurants in Washington, New York and Paris, and theater outings like the one in June they took to see Thurgood at the Kennedy Center. The Obama's have also stayed at Camp David for 14 visits to the presidential retreat for 32 days. Add up just these days and it totals 113 days.
Then add in the 7 day trip to get the Nobel prize and the 39 days golfing which equals a total of 159 days out of the short 20 months (608 days) or over 26% of the time he has occupied the White House

Bush: 61 days 50 days spent in Crawford at his ranch during which he met the following heads of state: Russian President Vladimir Putin, November 2001 British Prime Minister Tony Blair, April 2002 Saudi King Abdullah, April 2002, Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan, August 2002 Chinese President Jiāng Zémín, October 2002 Spanish Prime Minister José María Aznar, February 2003 Australian Prime Minister John Howard, May 2003 Japanese Prime Minister Koizumi Jun'ichirō, May 2003 Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, July 2003 Mexican President Vicente Fox, March 2004, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, April 2004 Spanish King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofía, November 2004 these are the associated press as of august 17th 2011.

Now I am sure some how i will be called racist for pointing out how he has been fing off on our dime but i still have to do it. I hope you notice i did not bring up the 42 trips on our dime that michelle has take with her family and staff ( averaging 13 to 30 people depending on which trip) just because this is about the president not his "i can finally be proud to be an American" wife."

how do you come up with bush's 4 times more than obama?? comparing bush's 8 years to Os 2-1/2. I posted the real figures with sources above. btw Big started another war in libya and has had well over 2 years to wrap up the other two wars. and the economy is a wreak and americans are tired of this man and his failed socialist policies and your saying obama **deserves* a few days off??? my god, he's already taken over 25% of his time in office on vaction somewhere or playing golf!! and this on this lastest trip as with many others he went in separate planes with his "finally proud to be an american wifey" who usually has 10-30 people tag along with her. those #$%$ presidential planes cost $80,000 AN HOUR to run. and she only left 4 hours EARLIER than obama, its no wonder this man can't straighten out the economy or do anything worthwhile. this would be absolutely hilarious if it wasn't for the fact americans are losing their homes and their retirements being gutted while Obama is on ANOTHER vaction.some to think of it the country would be better off if he stayed out of the white house.

Daniel....the more that technology takes over the world the less people have to go out into it and see for themselves how things are. They are descenitized and have no compassion for the human race. I may not agree with the Gov't, but posting snide remarks will not help make it better. But thats the only thing these people know how to do. Past generations at least tried to make a change by protesting and fighting for what they believed in.

Debbie, thank you for your responding post, however, I was mocking the R Limpballs ditto heads and all conservatives and republicans concerning their blinding hate for Obama, which of course being so totally ignorance they had missed. :)

how many of those days were at camp david and how many of those days were at his OWN RANCH?? And I'm sure you are using MICHAEL MOORE figures which include WEEKENDS as vacations.

Obamie has played 70 rounds of golf at 5 hours each that's 350 hours that is 14.58 DAYS, COMPLETE DAYS that could be counted as VACATION

you have no basis for those figures "happy to be an american". and they are so far from fact, must be using liberals math.
