Hussein played plenty of golf, watched movies, surfed, and pretended to care about national security. He had plenty of vacation.

[wastedyears]

After an early wave of criticism for the president's decision to decline comment for three full days on the attempted Christmas attack, his advisers spent the rest of the trip pursuing two competing goals: shielding the president from further scrutiny so he could enjoy his time off while proving that he was fully engaged in national affairs.

Wow

[QBFimi]

>> on New Year’s Eve, after more than five hours of golf, the president “cleared the decks” for work, aides said — sequestering himself for several hours

Oooh, I feel much safer already!

[Huskrrrr]

These “working” vacations while US citizens died were never tolerated by the MSM under the Bush adminstration.

Poor baby...

Call the waaaaambulance...

...”Obama called his counterterrorism and homeland security advisers for updates on an attempted airline attack a week earlier.”....

Attempted attack? It was an attack, that was successful except for the detonation.

This is the Washington Post covering for Obama. Are these people insane? They have to fly, too, just like you and me. Why do they cover for Obama?

.......the president "cleared the decks" for work, aides said

what a crock

[AndrewB]

During Obama's Thursday golf outing, his advisers released an official photograph made earlier in the day during his national security call, holding a phone with a concerned look on his face.

Probably dictating a sternly worded letter over the phone.

Anything to avoid the wife and kiddies.

“Defense Mode On” by WaPo.....

[gimme1ibertee]

Oh, please don't interrupt the festivities for something as trivial as national security!
God help us...he's absolutely sickening-the media even moreso.
I'll fall to my knees and cry with sheer joy to My Father when he's out and gone.

[unixfox]

I want to know who told him he could take a vacation!

[Tigerized]

The rest of the world has figured out what a disaster Obozo is. How come the WaPo can’t?

I haven’t read such blatant kneepad “journalism” in quite awhile. Excuse me while I go retch.

[VRWC For Truth]

He’s sinking faster than Tiger Woods. He’ll be channeling Jimmah Carter in the Rose Garden. 100% sissified prima donna.

And on New Year's Eve, after more than five hours of golf, the president "cleared the decks" for work, aides said -- sequestering himself for several hours ...

Oh Jesus Christ.

“Advisers described him as having achieved the ultimate work-life balance, shifting from national security commander to outdoor sportsman every day, all while catching up with some of his oldest friends in a place that holds deep meaning for him.”

GAK! Since the stugots has apparently achieved Nirvana in Kailua, maybe he’ll do us all a favor and STAY THERE!!!

From Article: "Senior administration officials said that Obama at no point considered cutting short his trip to attend to matters on the mainland, and they could not deny that Obama still had plenty of fun despite the unexpected crises. He played golf and basketball, went snorkeling and to the gym, and ate at his favorite Honolulu restaurant. His wife and children went to the beach, and his entire family spent time with both a group of Chicago friends Thugs who traveled to Hawaii with them and local Oahu residents who have known Obama since childhood."

Everyone of these “Cover for the boy-king” stories this week never fail to mention he was in the vicinity of his birth hospital. Thou protesteth too much?

[Cicero]

Let’s be honest. Has Obama ever NOT been on vacation since he entered the White House? It’s all been gyms, golf, parties, and travel to exotic foreign parts, where he is usually too tired to meet with heads of state unless they are people he can bow to.

At a guess, he spends no more than an hour or two a day on actual work—listening to his aides and agreeing to whatever they advise. Six months in office before he could be bothered to meet with the man in charge of the Afghan war—the war he earlier said was crucial to his plans. And when he did finally meet him, it was only to chew him out for going public with embarrassing revelations.

Even Porkulus and Obamacare have been left entirely to Nancy and Harry and the Backroom Boyz. Obama has gone out on the campaign circuit, but that’s about the only work he does. Maybe a hard weekend’s work, appearing on four or five TV talk shows, or a tour of the White House with Michelle and the kids and some slobbering reporter.

And bowing toward Mecca five times a day?...
