Oh come on, he probably had to work an ungodly 8 hours today and is tired.

The last time Obama worked an 8-hr day was back in 2008. Here's today's schedule:

9:45 AM

The President and The Vice President receive the Presidential Daily Briefing

---

10:30 AM

The President meets with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov

---

11:00 AM

The President meets with members of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board

---

12:05 PM

The President meets with senior advisors

---

12:30 PM

The President and The Vice President meet for lunch

---

4:00 PM

The President and The Vice President meet with Congressional Leadership

45 min for Daily Briefing (15 min longer than usual)
30 min with Russian foreign minister
1 hr with 'Intelligence Advisory Board' (the jokes just write themselves)
25 minutes with campaign staff who are on government payroll
??? minutes in a meeting with congressional leaders

And to think that this was actually one of his busier days. Three hours of work, tops.

Well there you go. He only had 3.5 hours for lunch, probably had to skip his ice cream cone, and there was no block of time for golf. Maybe he’ll go on strike to protest.
