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."
So you're comparing Bush WORKING at his ranch to Obama taking a VACATION. It's no wonder libs think everything should be free, you don't know what work is.

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.
Nor did Bush. He got us into two wars (one based on a outright lie) and left the Presidency and our economy in shambles.
Not to mention the MANY Brave Warriors he sent to their deaths all based on one big fat LIE!!
The far right fringe of the gop morons who likes to bash everyone's opinion like those in europe and yet kisses the british royal asses and sucks hispanic shiners (spain) when they need a frikking ally to make war with iraq.
Yer all bunch of nobody's and an embarrasement to what coservatism is all about.
if re-elected I would expect him to get out in front of the mid term house and senate seat elections and campaign for the Dems. Maybe help the GOP boot out the Tea Party and radical right. The economy will no doubt be better and if he gets bigger numbers of Dems in the House and Senate he will push through all of his campaign promises and pave the way for Al Gore's presidency.

Far right politics commonly includes authoritarianism, anti-communism, nativism and racialism.
Typically, the term far right is applied to fascists and neo-Nazis, and major elements of fascism have been deemed clearly far right, such as its belief that supposedly superior people have the right to dominate society while purging allegedly inferior elements, and — in the case of Nazism — genocide of people deemed to be inferior.The far right claims that superior people should proportionally have greater rights than inferior people.The far right has historically favoured an elitist society based on belief of the legitimacy of the rule of a supposed superior minority over the inferior masses.Far-right politics usually involves anti-immigration and anti-integration stances towards groups that are deemed inferior and undesirable. Concerning the socio-cultural dimension (nationality, culture and migration), a far-right position could be the view that certain ethnic, racial or religious groups should stay separate, and that the interests of one’s own group should be prioritised.

Yes, that would probably be a great idea or perhaps the best thing he can do as a president for the sanity of this country and then perhaps the REAL Conservative can return back to being Conservatives, folks like me and many others.
Life is not complete until all the world's great golf courses have been played.
I have a personal ambition something like that. In NH there is around 40 Common Man eatery's. Each with it's own unique atmosphere. One was a peg mill once and there is the winery table in what was once the wood boiler, where timbers were burned to run steam engines. You sit in the room where FIRE was!
Of course there are many other rooms some still with odd bits of machinery, and this one is also a INN.
Others were restored buildings and yet others are older all stainless steel dinners. Anyway my ambition is to get up early one day and ride the motorcycle to each one and down a mug of beer, and ride to the next hitting up all of them in the same day
IMO that would be better than playing a round with the ONE!
