"Just like the rest of us, I'm finding out about this in the media."

-- Barack Obama


This was the moment that Obama traded in whatever little credibility he had for a t-shirt that said "I'm With Stupid", featuring an arrow pointing straight up.

Please, from this point forward, do not ever use the words "in touch" to describe Barack Obama.

You can look for any excuse that you want to put down Obama but the reality is that a president never goes on vacation. They may be out of DC but they are still the president and sorry, they are in touch.

Presidents that are in touch........don't find out about things "in the media".

My problem with Bush and his 'ranch' was that he was there all the time, even when he should not have been...77 trips in 8 years. That's a long, long time to be 'cutting brush'.

As for the idea that somehow it's better if the President has a home of his own to travel to...can't you just hear the yelping from the Right if *this* president bought himself a 'compound' or a 'retreat'? Esp. if it were in Hawaii -- his home state.

I think of a president's 'home' is wherever he says it is. Bush's home should have been Connecticut but he wanted to be a Texan.
