Um, his schedule is sent out by the WH, to the press, if that's what you mean.

Typical of any Democrat that manages to worm into the Oval office.

They work really hard at wasting our money and partying it up, despite the misery that the vast majority of Americans are forced to contend with in the meantime!

These types have NO business intentionally leading America to its grave!!
A grave they helped dig more than anyone.

I think at a minimum the President/Secret Service should mandate that no cameras be allowed while he's playing golf. If he's going to play, at least do it incognito and out of the public eye during a time of castastrophe. As a matter of symbolism, this President totally doesn't get it.

I watch a porgram on reporters that said just that;he has a very poor habit of being not out there that has especially shownin this crisis. They comment that he seems to just spend a few hours ;three time then leaves. He just hasn'5t connected with teh epole on the fround that have the real problem. He needs to watch Bush after 9-11 in new york or even the new york mayor or some of the other presdients.ften he uses the time to point fingers and threaten rather than keep to the issue of the people he is visiting problems.My guess is he is use to as a community oragniser of dealing with people by being like the Rev Wright. Poiunt out the evil ones to distract the mob which doesn't work with people lookign for soltuions; not someone to blame at the time.

I'm sure there was work completed there But to be fair,
if Obama went HOME to Chicago for that length of time,
what would his detractors make of that

I find how much time any president takes vacation to be
irrelevant to the larger scope of things. Most Presidents
can multi task
