Ferguson is a local matter that he shouldn't insert himself in and he's already dealing with ISIS.


Can't believe I'm defending this dude.

Playing golf isn't the issue the timing is. Certainly bad optics to address the beheading and then go straight to the course and start fist bumping & having a good ole time.

I think that fist bumping pic was taken quite some time ago. My guess is it was before the beheading.

That's not what the op says but Alonzo Mourning isn't in the fist bumping one so you may be right.

Obama Has Had Fewer Vacation Days In His Entire Presidency Than Congress Has This Year

Here is a reality check for Republicans who keep complaining over President Obama’s vacations. President Obama has had fewer vacation days in the last six years than Congress will have in 2014.

According to CBS News Correspondent Mark Knoller (https://sports.yahoo.com/news/little-league-ceo--we-ll-consider-compensating-players-in-future-053214653.html), President Obama has spent 129 days of presidency on vacation.

The Republican led House of Representatives was scheduled to be in session for only 124 days in all of 2014. (http://www.politicususa.com/2014/01/06/congress-2014-scheduling-97-work-days.html)

This means that John Boehner and company will spend fewer days at work this year than President Obama has spent on vacation in his entire presidency.

The numbers are actually worse when one considers that the House is only scheduled to work for 97 days between January and Election day in November.

Members of the Senate, like Ted Cruz, have had nearly as many days off this year as the president has had since taking office (http://www.politicususa.com/2014/08/09/eating-pork-chop-iowa-sen-ted-cruz-tells-obama-stop-golfing-job.html).

This is the point in any story about Republican hysterics about Obama’s vacations that George W. Bush needs to be used as a point of reference. (http://www.politicususa.com/2013/07/30/bush-spent-1-flight-crawford-obamas-entire-week-vacation-hotel-rooms.html)

During Bush’s presidency, he took four vacations that were longer than Obama’s longest vacation (http://archives.politicususa.com/2011/12/09/obama-bush-christmas-vacation.html).

Former President Bush took virtually the entire month of August 2001 off. Bush’s vacation was almost twice as long (27 days) as Obama’s current break (15 days).

Ronald Reagan took a 25 day vacation in August 1983. Republicans never demanded that Bush and Reagan return to work, so why is it different for President Obama?

George W. Bush spent the month before the 9/11 terror attacks away from the White House. President Obama came back to the White House in the middle of his current vacation for meetings. Congressional Republicans don’t have a leg to stand on when they criticize the vacations of President Obama.

Presidents from their own party took longer and more numerous vacations, while their own work schedule has become noticeably lighter (http://www.politicususa.com/2013/10/31/house-republicans-plan-work-113-days-year.html)in the last few years.The reason why the Republican criticism of Obama’s vacations rings hollow is because they deliver their remarks, not on the House or Senate floor, but while they themselves are on vacation. When these Republicans throw vacation stones, they are shattering their own glass houses.

it's an apples an oranges comparison, chosen because the tally seems to favor Obama strongly.

comparing across presidencies might have been more apropos, but one may well wonder if the comparison itself isn't pure whining.

As the House Repugs plan to sue, and later impeach, Obama, Boner's House is history-making, a monument, actually a pile of shit, to do-nothingness, a monument to know-nothingness.

Do Nothing Congress Looks To Do Even Less In 2014 By Scheduling Only 97 Work Days

http://www.politicususa.com/2014/01/06/congress-2014-scheduling-97-work-days.html

and then go look up the legislation the Boner's House has passed AND blocked.

If the House Repugs could find out how long Obama need to take a shit, they'd bitch about him not do his job.

recess? :lol goddam, you're one stupid fuck
