And Obama said he'd fix it in his first term. And you all believed him.
BTW, Bush alone can't be blamed for that. Hillary and most of Congress believed what you call a "lie".
As for Obama doing more travelling - if he's out of office, it doesn't matter how much travelling he does. At least it will be at his own expense, not ours. He needs to remember that he didn't "join the Executive Branch" so he could travel.
Nope i am no fool. Did not believe him in 08 nor trusted him. In 2012 i still don't trust him, nor beleive in him. Too many lies, too many blame games.
And the blame games, are always pointed at someone else, never himself!
Not sure about this year, but as of last year Obama had taken fewer vacation days than any recent president save Clinton.
"Obama has taken 61 vacation days after 31 months in office. At this point in their presidencies, George W. Bush had spent 180 days at his ranch where his staff often joined him for meetings. And Ronald Reagan had taken 112 vacation days at his ranch.
Among recent presidents, Bill Clinton took the least time off -- 28 days."
alright, first response blamed it on Bush, good to see even after four years, the unwashed masses can still whip out the "bush, bush, bush" in their sleep....

Hillary and congress didn`t throw the UN weapons inspector team out of the country. Bush ALONE can be blamed for that and the deaths of 4,500 u.s. soldiers. Benghazi? 4 dead.
Hope and change folks hope and change...................
(CNSNews.com) - Valerie Jarrett, the senior adviser to President Barack Obama, says her boss wants to spend more time on the road if he's re-elected.
Obama, who has campaigned practically non-stop for months, finds it "energizing," Jarrett said Saturday in an interview with MSNBC's "Morning Joe" in Nashua, N.H.
"Everybody has always said that you really can't be prepared to be the president, and then until you're the president, you don't know exactly what it's going to be like," Jarrett said.
"And so I think one of the things that he (Obama) has said, upon reflection, is that he's going to spend a lot more time traveling around the country.
I state a simple fact with a source, you reply with ad hominem attacks and expletives, and that makes me the brainwashed line-dragger? okeydoke. carry on.

Just another reason Clinton was great. He worked hard at the job, the numbers show it. Like any person who is good at their job, they have an undying passion for it.

Uhh, blamed what exactly on Bush? I stated the straightforward fact that characterizing Obama as a president who takes too much vacation time is inaccurate, with a source. Nothing more. And for the second time on this thread, the knee-jerk anti-obama response is to reply with insults instead of facts to counter this.
You guys are really on a hair trigger, huh?
He doesnt do any work while in the White House either.
You took the words right out of my mouth!!
