So much for a news vacation

CIA report, doubling deficit, and Bernanke's nomination mean no R&R for Obama

As the White House press corps flew to Martha’s Vineyard on Sunday, press secretary Bill Burton assured reporters that the president wouldn’t be the only one on vacation.

“He wants you to relax and have a good time,” Burton said. “Take some walks on the beaches. Nobody is looking to make any news.”

So much for that.

In the 48 hours that President Barack Obama has been on vacation, the CIA released a report that reignited the torture debate, Attorney General Eric Holder appointed a special investigator to examine the treatment of terrorism detainees, and the OMB projected a doubling of the national debt over the next 10 years.

A chance for Obama to get out on the golf course and fire up a blunt in private.

Everything these folks do is manufactured.

It is a vacation for me when I don’t have to look at his mug on tv.

So one important question has been answered:

"How long can Obozo stay out of the limelight before he has to step back in?

Answer - Less than one day.
