Obama pleads for privacy on his vacation (DOUBLE-STANDARD!)

[wk4bush2004]

CHILMARK, Mass. – President Barack Obama and his family began a weeklong vacation on this Massachusetts island with a message to the reporters who have crowded the New England villages: Chill out and don't expect much.

Pleading for privacy, the White House said Obama would have no public events while vacationing on Martha's Vineyard with his family and close friends. Aides also asked that the journalists not take pictures of the Obamas' two young daughters, age 8 and 11, when they aren't with the president.

Barry is just nervous because he heard Alex Rodriguez rented the estate next door

Someone, somewhere else, pointed out he started his vacation at the start of Ramadan. Maybe he doesn’t want photos of his family eating during the day—so as not to offend the Lockerbie bomber and his co-religionists. /s

My reason for hoping for such a picture is that maybe, just maybe, such a picture would SHUT UP the idiots who demonize those of us who enjoy a cigarette or cigar

What a pathetic attempt to hijack a thread for the cause of Unassisted Suicide...

I don’t drink, but that’s neither here nor there, LOL!

There are plenty of like-minded creeps in the area for him to drink with. Makes one sick, it does!

Obama should get as much privacy as Bush did.

Obama is celebrating Ramadan by using the excuse of a vacation.

“Ramadan is the month in which Muslims believe the Koran was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, beginning with a simple word - iqra. It is therefore a time when Muslims reflect upon the wisdom and guidance that comes with faith, and the responsibility that human beings have to one another, and to God.”

After Obama rams through death inducing spending, pushes socialist healthcare at us , and then tells us to shut up and go F ourselves? I hope he gets no peace and no sleep!

As an exdegenerate smoker

Remarks like that are why this (However, smokers have been successfully painted as heroin addicts) comment of yours is true.

I think the second hand smoking scam was the original global warming hoax.

Without a doubt. They are actually using the same type of cherry-picked "science" for GoreBULL warming as they used to demonize smokers over SHS.

That observation raises mental health issues...

Ramadan, need you ask?

or,

"Don't take ANY pictures without ME ME WEE WEE in them!" -barak

[PIF]

Just assume that DC will take them all, then you can kick back and relax...

I saw an article yesterday that referred to this Martha's Vineyard outing as Obama's "first vacation".

Geraldo said the same thing on his show this weekend. I yelled at him about it, but the guy must be hearing impaired.

[PIF]

so said a future voter and idiot in waiting.

No hijack attempted, I was responding to another poster who brought up the subject.

I think the doggy parade was for Meee-Chelle, not Bo.

Enjoy your vacation, Barry.
With 8.8% unemployment here in Massachusetts many folks around here haven't had one of those in years. We need jobs - stop screwing our future with your cap and trade BS, socialized medicine, massive taxes and global warming fantasies.

America's temper tantrum last November is costing us dearly and will continue to do so for years to come. An anti-business, anti-American socialist in the White House. Well done, fools.

Fearless leaders do not find vacant lots - they make them.

The Chicago garbagemen’s union is not hiring due to the poor economy...

No can do. We need to know what he's eating and drinking, what he's smoking, whether his parenting skills are up to snuff, if he's wasting energy or thinking of opposing health care reform.

You know - all that stuff he says he needs to know about us.
