Check Out Obama's Multimillion-Dollar Martha's Vineyard Vacation Pad
ABC News ^ | 7/11/14 | ERIN DOOLEY and BENJAMIN SIEGEL

The commander-in-chief will be beach bummin’ it in Martha’s Vineyard, Mass, this summer, and the home he is reportedly renting out looks amazing.

President Obama and the first lady are planning a two-week vacation at a seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom home in Chilmark, the Martha’s Vineyard Times reports.

The first family will travel to the island from Aug. 9 to Aug. 24, making the 15-day getaway the longest summer vacation of Obama’s presidency. While the location of their vacation home was supposed to be under wraps, neighbors confirmed to the local newspaper that the Obamas will be staying at a luxurious home owned by Joanne Hubschman, whose late husband, Henry, was a former executive at General Electric.

The 17-room house, worth an estimated $12 million, sits on a 10-acre lot and features an infinity pool, a dual tennis-basketball court, an indoor gym and views of the Vineyard Sound, according to the Martha’s Vineyard Times.

Maybe a few thousand of Obama’s undocumented democrats could bunk there with him.

Of course, the liberals would say that Obama is never truly on vacation, because the president is in touch 24-7 with everyone should a crisis happen while he’s away from Washington.

These same liberals criticized Bush for taking so much vacation time, and never would admit that Bush was in touch 24-7 when at the ranch.

Some extreme liberals even blamed Bush for 9-11, in that, he was at the ranch for most of August 2001. They claimed that the warning in the presidential daily briefing on 8-6-01, that Bin Laden wanted to hijack airplanes, should have gotten him back to Washington to take action to prevent 9-11.

But I think Obama will get a break from liberals and the media, with the fallback position that a president is never out of touch, never really on vacation.

Why is it that the liberals were upset when Bush went to his own ranch for vacation, but these same liberals have nothing to say about Obama taking luxurious vacations?

Being a liberal means being anti-American, anti-free market, anti-conservative. And anything that diminishes those things that they are against, is a good thing.

The Obama clan will drag numerous Democrats with them as the block anyone and everyone from enjoying time at the Vineyard. Just as the Clintons did before them. The water is warm and the sharks are gathering in and out of the water. America is screwed. I am betting his buddy Duval will be there to huddle over the 2016 nomination. Barack isn’t going to endorse a white Democrat.

And American dimwits voted the second time for this piece of garbage. At least more than half of Americans are garbage themselves for supporting this dictator king. Americas have lost their morals.

Those ignorant: Miss Romney yet? One jackass on FR still is in the dark and will never come out.

Chilmark’s on the opposite end of the island from Chappaquiddick. It’s near Gay Head. Ooops! Aquinnah.

LOL! Move them in with the Obamas! They could meet them at the gate when they arrive.
