Barack Obama, the man who has continually said he would not rest until the damn hole is plugged, and until everyone has a job spent this weekend vacationing in Maine, which is about as far away from the Gulf of Mexico as any of the fifty seven states he has visited.
If he bothered to come off the golf courses up there he will hear that the damage he planned to do to Americas Gulf of Mexico off shore oil industry is well underway.
Last week Diamond Offshore (DO) announced it can not wait for the Courts to finally hold the Obama Administration in contempt and order an end to its frivolous attempts to shut down all off shore oil drilling. This is an immediate move. DO is so determined to take Obamas No for an answer that it is willing to take a $31 million early termination penalty hit as an to pack up and leave.
Diamond is sending its Ocean Endeavor drilling rig to the friendlier waters off Egypt. Apparently it would rather take its chances off the shore of the traditional home of the Muslim Brotherhood than deal with the economic terrorism of the Obama Administration.
While the typical oil rig of this size employs something over 100 workers, Diamonds CEO said the Houston corporation, has made it clear that the uncertainties of the off and on Obama ordered moratorium will lead to other Diamond owned rigs leaving the Gulf as well.
Nevertheless, the greater danger to the Gulfs economic health, posed .departure of these rigs, is to the large number of vendors providing services to the drilling crews. Vendors and other ancillary service providers can number in the 1000s of workers.
Why invest in this climate?
Obama has unleashed a terror attack on American business

I only hope they show him eating lunch at a seafood shack!
Perhaps he will stop here http://www.benandbills.com/ic_lobster.html for dessert
I have never heard of the American people objecting when a Democrat goes on vacation. The media and their sheeple always says that the Democrat worked so hard that he needed some time off. And the American people, who can’t afford their own vacations, meekly agree.
I hope the messiah wannabee ditches J’s and the Muddy Rudder among others.
Ms C and I will do Arizona first, Maine later, if at all. We have summered in Maine since our Kids were small, now our eldest grandkid is in college.
Zero wipes his a** on every place he goes, leaving it gross and impure.

Badcrack Obamao politicked a few days. Now he needs a vacation. It’s an Affirmative Action thing.
Perhaps Obama took his Magic Laser with him on vacation.
This should allow him to be in Maine, while still maintaining the focus he’s had since Day One.
We should be pleased with the~walk on the beach~”shovel ready jobs” he has been able to ‘create and save’.
Can you even imagine the personal conflict he must have felt in having to choose between taking a vacation or going on another rigorous Apology/Bowing Tour?
Look, his family deserves a vacation, considering how exhausted they must be from all of the work that is involved with tending to their vegetable garden and walking the dog.
Have any of you judgmental folks even considered all the work and stress that’s involved in hosting a weekly party at the White House?
I think you racist crackers should leave this hard working man and his lovely family alone. Creating miracles and transforming a free country takes a lot of work... he needs a vacation.
Besides, Michelle may be trying to be proud of her country... one state at a time.
He’s been spending trillions, heck, I get stressed and worn out when I am forced to spend just one hour shopping with my wife.... it’s difficult to imagine how tough it must be for this great leader of all the people.
Please remember, he’s doing all of this for us... and ‘hope and change’ isn’t easy.
Does winning the lottery ring a bell. That is all it is to this communists criminal, fun and games. He is rotten to the core.
Umm. Not to nitpick the author’s post but Obama’s vacation isn’t until next weekend - this weekend he just played golf and hid out in the White House.
;^D
Folks "From Away" are loving this visit. "He's just so enlightened, you know."
The native Main-ahs.....not so much.
Obama on illegal immigration, Obama on the oil spill, Obama on the Constitution, Obama on private industry takeovers, Obama on Islamism and Israel, the Obama campaign against our best allies, the Obama Reset-and-Suck-Up Policy with our most cynical opponents, the Obama soak-the-taxpayer, every-shade-of-Green-but-honest-profit pork-barrel spending extravaganza.
The sorry truth must be that the most influential president in history indeed, the national leader of any kind with historys most colossally enduring legacy is still planting political IEDs everywhere Obama goes, with his failed policies and his really, really failed policies and his did-we-mention-the-failed-policies yet, because those were some failed glaring policies.
President Barack Obama has long boasted about the transformative change hes bringing to the country. But by the time those reforms finally arrive, he could be long gone from the White House. Some of Obamas biggest promises wont go into effect until long after his first term and in some cases, well past a second. In fact, buried deep within some of the Democrats most significant reform bills are dozens of policy time bombs set to blow at more politically convenient times.
What do you mean!
MaObama is on vacation EVERY day!
