Camp David is not a vacation spot, it is an extension of the WH.
So are the Western WH's, the homes of Reagan and Bush. You could hardly call those vacations, especially when they have everything they need to run the country from the facilities.
And no matter where ANY President goes he has everything he needs to run the country........gosh! We got all that hightech 'lectronics, computers, phones....... Didja know we can even PHONE Europe now!!!???
All of Washington DC closes down in August---always has, always will
In the past, all of Washington had to clear out in August. It was a mosquito infested swamp. It ain't a mosquito infested swamp anymore and air conditioning makes it a lot more bearable in the city.

There are still a lot of mosquitoes there; it's still hot and humid there in August; and old traditions die hard in that southern city. Congress is out of town, meeting with the constituents.
Why can't he go on vacation as OTHER WHITE PRESIDENTS DID ?...Ooops, excuse me , I should've said , "as OTHER PRESIDENTS DID?"
Now I have said this a million times, who the heck cares where and how many times they go. Big friggin deal...But your above comment insinuates that anyone against the big O is a racist. I resent the implication and further, I am tired of it, I get some may behave this way, BUT I DO NOT, which means not everyone does!!!!!!! Get over the race card and maybe just maybe this country might be one again.
There is absolutely no excuse to say such words, I don't care how ignorant the OP might sound...
Here's the deal, presidents take vacations, get over it! And really, just how do we know what they are doing on their vacations(he could be working or not), we are not there and no of us are qualified to pass judgment on something we know nothing about.................................

BECAUSE there is NO other possible reason that Obama should be held to a different standard than any other president concerning vacations.
And, NO , I will never "get over" racism.....that's EXACTLY what racists want.....

So much for wanting a leader to lead by example
