You know texxx Instead of consistently attacking the president, maybe you should start concentrating on your own party's implosion. Even Rush gets it. "We are outnumbered and losing ground" <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/e5Bpnz46QvY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> The republican party is on the precipice of completely falling apart. Maybe it's time you and your kind start to redirect your anger to the real problem. It ain’t the president taking some time off.
Other posters have addressed the "substance" of this thread, but you just ignore them. What's wrong, you don't have an answer for the FACT that Obama has taken far fewer vacation days than any President in modern history save Clinton to this point in his presidency?
If Congress comes up with, debates, and passes a bill, Obama can sign it just as easily from Oahu as he can in the Oval Office.
I am really starting to doubt if the OP really has a college education like he claims. I mean would Rice really let him out with sloppy writing like the *title* of this thread. Here: "Obama is a terrible and lazy leader." You're welcome! Parallel construction is parallel, brah.
It is far too early to declare the death of the Republican party. They took a beating but given how entrenched they are in the South they could easily rebuild to control the government. If current demographic trends hold they are going to be hampered in presidential elections but in off year elections they could still gain a lot when turnout is substantially lower.
The Republican party is going no where... and I would not be surprised to see them win in 2016 if the economy is not substantially better. Republicans did very well in the governor elections and still have the house.
Just my opinion, but I think we'll see a different turnout in 2014. Hopefully dems learned a lesson in 2010. BTW your post doesn't refute the demographic trends. how?
The problem, mc mark, is that screwing up in 2010 gave the GOP far too many states to gerrymander out the kazoo. Democrats have to work twice as hard now in order to be in position to return the favor, and they won't get the chance until 2020. And that's a long time away! I think we'll see a different Republican Party by then. Either far more extreme, or far more moderate and diverse. If it's far more extreme, that's good for the Democratic Party, but the alternative, if it happens, is not. We'll have to wait and see what the future holds.
Texxx: 1: That's because I have already mentioned it in this thread. (he in fact doesn't) or 2: Will you libtards respond to why Obama is lazy? or 4: Then why don't you try and defend his actions? (Notice how everyone does and compares it to other vacation days...which texxx will never mention) or 5: Its obvious you have lost when you play the race card.
I doubt he'll reply. He doesn't really care. He only wanted a chance to call Obama lazy and see how many people he could get to call him a racist while he had a chance to deny it.
During 2 terms as President, Bush spent all or of part of 487 days at Camp David, on retreats and made 77 trips to his Crawford Ranch, in Texas, where he spent all or part of 490 days, on his Ranch. The total number of days of vacation or retreat President Bush took, while in office over a period of 8 years was 977 days, or 32% of his total time in office, was spent on vacations or retreats. Just want to point this out just in relative to the term "lazy".
Taking a 20 day vacation in comparison to 32% of the time is not equal. Naming somebody lazy without any context does not seem fair
It's true, stupid criticism of the President for not physically being present in the white house, based on the assumption that it's impossible to do presdentin' otherwise is probably more asinine now than ever given the ease of modern communication.
If you can't see the relative difference between the two, a huge (what's bigger than huge?), a gigantic difference, then I'd have to say I'm speechless. The only problem with that is that I'm never speechless!
I can't believe people are actually posting logical well-reasoned answers/ questions in a bigtexxx troll thread. You guys really need to reevaluated who you're attempting to engage in a discussion.
