Obama Takes the Week Off
whitehousedossier.com ^ | JULY 2, 2012 | KEITH KOFFLER

Posted on 07/02/2012 8:22:09 AM PDT by BarnacleCenturion

President Obama appears to be mostly taking the week off, making a rare sojourn at Camp David through Tuesday before celebrating the Fourth of July and then heading out on the campaign trail.

Obama presumably also has his usual August vacation lined up as well, though it’s not been announced where he will be headed. It is known, though, that with an election coming up, Obama will not be restoring himself at his customary location, the super-rich enclave of Martha’s Vineyard.

The president has grumbled that Mitt Romney can campaign full time while he continues to have to perform his day job, but it’s questionable how many hours he’s putting in at the office. Obama found time for 33 fundraisers in June

Obama wants to avoid any questions concerning his big health care tax increase victory.

I’d prefer to see the would-be dictator take a permanent vacation as a detainee at GITMO.

Only way to get his poll numbers to go up.
Disappear and shut up for awhile.

It'd be a great time to arrest him for treason and obtaining secrets under a false identity, and imprison him there indefinitely.

Major Acorzado, where are you? (reference: Matthew Bracken's "Foreign Enemies and Traitors" novel)

Where’s Waldo? I believe some patriotic Marines have taken him to Leavenworth for an extended stay. One can hope.

All those fundraisers can really take it out of a guy. Plus, he is sacrificing by not being able to play golf at Camp David. But he’s making these concessions for the children so it’s all good.

Q: How can you tell Obama’s taking the week off?

A: You won’t find him on the golf course...

I sincerely hopes he takes the rest of the year off. He can do less damage. It’s always good for America when this fool takes vacation time.

Well, I am exhausted after listening to all the asshats before and after Justice Roberts screwed Americans. So starting Wednesday I am taking a week off too. Since I am self employed and only get money if I work that means no taxes for them for a week. So there!

If he is not even golfing, he could be re-considering the Dem Party offer to step aside in exchange for being appointed UN General Secretary in the future. His options are certainly narrowing quickly.

I’m afraid tens of millions of our “fellow Americans” disagree with us on this point.

Bet he and the family are ticked at trying to act like the rest of us.

His hanlers have sent him there to be out of the way. His presence is not needed at the White Hut. He is just a figurehead anyway.

Obama going on vacation means that the people who are actually running things want him out of town. They don’t want his stupid opinions at their meetings. He will be told what to say when they allow him back.

So, how does this week compare with the other 180 or so since he and Michelle infested “the People’s House”?

Word has it that Obama hates going to Camp David. I think he and his advisors/strategists are bunkered up, trying to figure out how to deal with the Obamacare “tax” issue, which is chained/padlocked around his neck & the rest of the Dems. From articles, when he made the fund raising call from AF1 on the way back from Colorado, he was “begging”, “pleading”, sounded “hysterical” and tired. Obozo isn’t doing nearly as well as the media and his sycophants want us all to believe .... and now, he’s at Camp David, where he hates to be. VERY interesting.

Taking unscheduled vacations is such a relaxing way to throw an election to your liberal republican counter-part so you can leave the White House without impeachment papers or handcuffs ...

Yep, Camp David would be a perfect detention facility for a Traitor-in-Chief. Thanks for the FEAT ref.
