US President Barack Obama took a respite from the pile of grim news clouding his vacation, taking a group of friends and their kids for a chill Hawaii delicacy -- shave ice.
At a shave-ice store near his vacation rental, Obama on Friday picked one of the concotions, made of ice and fruit syrup and known as the "Snowbama" in his honor -- flavored with lemon-lime, cherry, and passion guava.
"That is the Snowbama," the president said, when reporters questioned his choice of treat, after he ordered the group 19 shave ice cones of various flavors.
Onlookers cheered Obama, who was with daughters Malia and Sasha and friends and their children who have been sharing his vacation in his home state.

“Onlookers cheered”
I magine Hitler, Mao and Stalin had their sycophants, too.
“Onlookers cheered”
Pathetic writing and if onlookers did cheer then OMG, we have really lost touch of reality.
I find him to be gross.
Why is Obama still in Hawaii?
President Obama wants us all to know he’s taking seriously the attempted terrorist attack of Christmas Day and that his administration is doing all it can to ensure our safety. But his words would be a lot more convincing if not delivered during time snatched between rounds of golf, swimming and sunbathing. ...
... By staying in Hawaii, the president has sent the message that the situation really isn’t all that serious, that things can proceed just fine until he’s back. And isn’t it that kind of reasoning that emboldens our never-vacationing enemies into thinking Christmas Day is the perfect time for them to strike?

Looks like a mental case, doesn't he?
He really is a stupid looking SOB.
They act like they’ve never heard of snow cones before. Dumb MSM.
Poor zero, had to have his golf game interupted a couple times. Boo frickin hoo. Most of the world gets no vacation.
1. Not been on vacation.
2. At Church to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.
3. On a small plane to visit every family who lost a soldier in Afghanistan.
4. Ordering the complete destruction of muslim terrorists in Afghanistan and Yemen.
5. In the White House, in the Oval Office, in suit and tie (I wear bow ties) firing a cretin like Janet Incometano (whom I never would have appointed in the first place.
6. Acting like a President!
The nerve of those CIA employess!! How dare they get themselves killed during the One's vacation!!
I believe they did cheer. Someone posted a video on youtube about obama looking for terrorists on the golf course. Sure enough there are ‘fans’ following him and cheering. These are the same people who follow hollywood stars around I imagine. People without a clue.
Man... if Bush did this...
Shave ice? Looks like a sno-cone to me.
He could have shaved it off my sidewalk Thursday morning.
Other day I was talking to one of those loading dock Democrats who probably didn't vote for Clinton (at least didn't vote for him twice). I said Obama reminded me of somebody with nothing who hit the lottery and went on a spending spree. "No...no..." it's not that, he said, "You know what it is? I'll tell you what it is (and he said two words I haven't heard in 3 decades)!"
