VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass. (AP) -- President Barack Obama had a simple task for his first morning on vacation: shoot over to a Martha's Vineyard bookstore to fill out his daughters' summer reading list and grab himself a novel.

Easier said than done.

His SUV, part of a 20-vehicle motorcade, passed through a cordon of Massachusetts State Police motorcycle officers, in a protective cocoon of Secret Service agents.......

Note my comment above.

I think he has a medical condition which may need instant medical attention. Remember the scars on his head. He probably has several medical conditions; aside from mental illness, of course.

Wishing that he would resign for any reason that he might come up with, or be forced out of office due to crimes coming to light, are not evil thoughts; they are Good thoughts.

"Is it snobby of me to not want my president wearing sandles in public?"

Not at all. Real men don't wear sandals in this day and age in any case.

Wonder if this began after the ‘medical emergency’ in Hawaii while they were on vacation with friends.

Yep. Supposedly while the pres is enroute, he’s relatively safe. Primary vehicle is well armored(and anonymous) and would have to take a hell of a hit to cause injury. Risk is when exiting the vehicle. This is what the SS if for. Bubba wreaked havok on his contingent because he was an impromptu Burger King fanatic.

No argument on that basis.

I have not heard much in the news here about the FAA issuing another no-fly zone for the Vineyard and miles and miles around. Last time there were lots of general aviation pilots complaining, and the press amplified that grousing.

Apparently nobody is complaining this time?

“... and grab himself a novel.”

Syntax borrowed, no doubt, from the Kerry/Edwards presidential campaign, as in “I need to get me a huntin’ license.”

I'd like to see Obama visit a farm and shovel himself some manure.

This is a campaign plug for me!

When I am elected President, I promise that I will do such minor shopping using an online service. Sure overnight FedEx charges are steep, but less than $50, while a Presidential Motorcade costs tens of thousands directly and indirectly more as shops lose customers.

It will be the least I could do to show respect for the people who hired me.

I love shopping, but I can give it up for eight years.

Personally I’m hoping for a nervous breakdown live on TV, once the dam breaks and all the crap/crimes/fraud/lies he’s hiding become public.

Probably the most costly books since Jackie O sent a plane to Paris from her private island to pick up a few books.

Grab himself a novel, to hid his koran in in case someone snaps a picture of him.

As a parent, I would not want my kids’ teachers to know that my kids are doing their required summer reading at the last minute. I’d send a staffer or order on Amazon. Now everyone at Sidwell Friends (and the rest of the world) know the girls are just getting around to their summer reading. I read a MSM article earlier today in which the reporter was SO impressed with what the girls are reading. NOT! They are doing their summer homework. Slackers...

I seem to recall that those were debunked as clever photoshop stuff.
