We are in the worst economic crisis since the great depression and this motherfucker decides to take a fucking vacation. Its August and he has already passed the amount of vacation time Bush took in one year. Guys a fucking joke, as well as his mindless hypocritical peons.

You act like the president can just snap his fingers and everything will be fine. It is going to take a hell of a long time to get the economy and this country back to where it was in the pre-bush era.

You say that like 1.) Things magically went to shit upon his election as if the economy and the unemployment rate weren't a concern beforehand And, 2.) the president is the key influence and manipulator of the economy. Also, the national debt is effected by policy and purchasing dating back several administrations. For example, one of the many reasons the debt is so high is because bush invaded Iraq with next to zero justification. Your ire is totally misdirected and totally shaped by news entertainment blurbs and gotcha journalism. Thought everyone learned a lesson from the whole Obama is spending 10 bazillion dollars on a trip to India debacle...

Bush was a fighter pilot in the Texas Air National Guard, Obama never served our country. He also bowed to the king of saudi arabia. Hes a fucking pussy, a liar, and a fucking moron.

Umm... He doesn't spend his own money bud. It's the taxpayers'. You think he has the personal money to have his and his wife fly on their own jets, rent out every room in the hotel, and pay for all the security detail for the whole week? No chance. That's all taxpayers money and its costs millions.

alright, fuck you. back in 08, I was possibly the only member on this site, and in my gigantic group of friends, to not vote for obama.

What I said was america ignoring shit through all those presidents. the president can do a great job or a shitty job, but that doesn't change the fact that we've ignored these impending issues for 2 fucking decades, and are now dealing with it. You can't fix two decades of health issues with a single visit to the doctor, and you can't fix two decades worth of general fuckery with a single president. Fact is, America will never be on top again. the country is fucked, just like the british empire was and the roman empire before it. We had our run and it's over.

1. this thread fails and is the biggest joke on nsg

2.there are so many winning posts i cannot quote all of them

3. if you actually did your hw and used your tiny tiny brain of yours, before you started a shitty thread, obama going on vacation IS ACTUALLY helping with the economy because he is creating/keeping jobs and money is being spent during the time of his vacation.

i can agree with him being somewhat of a pussy, but its hard as fuck to change shit in 4 years when everything has been getting fucked up for decades. and of course we are in high debt right now after how long this war has been going on and everything else it just keeps going up until some HUGE changes happen.

laxbro i swear most of the things you have said in this thread are stupid as shit. are you just some sort of annoying troll im confused?

If you bet on tourism numbers, quick tip: Martha's Vineyard in 2010. Every time presidents vacation here, interest and arrivals pick up in seasons to follow. Now the Obamas are coming to stay at Chilmark's Blue Heron Farm—coincidentally the same week as Chelsea Clinton's rumored on-island wedding.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204409904574350453066783572.html

you are the most naive, stubborn, stupidest i know. if you dont think him going on vacation will not help the economy, you are completely wrong. during his time there and for many seasons after, marthas vinyard will be the busiest vacation spot, not that is isnt already.  While he is there for his stay, his whole office of staff comes with him. so basically hes not even on vacation, he will still be doing his day to day routine. and give the guy a break, hes not our best president of all time, but hes trying and let him have a life like every other human being on the planet.

lol at you idiots that think the president's vacation is anything like the average joe's vacation. i guarantee you the man is still working while on "vacation". maybe not 18 hours a day, but still working none-the-less. its not like he can just turn off hos phone, blackberry, etc. and just ignore the world just because he is on vacay. and its not like the guy with the most stressful job on the planet doesnt deserve a little bit of r&r. get real folks.

this. no matter how good the president is, they can't fix things on their own. so him being in the white house probably wouldn't make a whole lot of difference.

I was going to chime in with some facts before this thread starting getting ridiculous/hilarious (see above...awesome) and I still am:


Spark notes:
Obama - 70 Vacation days
Bush - 225 Vacations days (at the same point in Bush's first term)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA, Bush got his daddy to save his ass from being sent to Vietnam. When Bush could have served his country, he used his daddy as a shield and ran like a little girl. cmon laxbro, if you are going to attempt to comprise an even remotely convincing political argument at least get your facts straight

Number one sign that someone knows nothing about politics. They think "vacation" for a president actually means vacation. Also mythreads beacause the latest crop of kids on NS who have no grasp of government have been especially entertaining.

I was in marthas vineyard just got back when obama was there. To be honest, pisses me off so much how much of a waste it is for him to go on vacation. The secret service buys out every locals house so they can stay there. They had 6 helicopters fly him in. The entire vacation costs millions of dollars. It is truly one of the biggest waste of tax dollars i have ever seen firsthand.

This OP is such an uneducated ignorant troll. Like I can't even begin to formulate any sort of argument because no matter how much reason you show him he just calls you a "hypocrite" or a "moron" and makes your argument invalid. Please go to school and learn something before you do something stupid again like blame Obama for the economy...

who gives a shit, go bike,swim, go for a hike or do something outside. for fucks sake, go wash your car or mow your lawn or do something productive. stop worrying bout things like the president and the economy. enjoy your fucking lives people.

 honestly, you can worry about this shit when your knees are full of arthritis, your skiing days are done, and your a grumpy old man. not when your a young adult....

Well then, you should be embarrassed that someone with such low intellect as myself was able to figure out while on the teet that the current American economic situation has NOTHING to do with Obama. If Obama has been unable to bring 'change' to America like you and millions others had hoped its because of your political system, its outdated. Empires come and go, the US could pick itself up but you guys are too divided within your systems. Your parliment (or whatever you call it in the US) is too busy badgering with each other for anything real to be accomplished, healthcare is a perfect example of that. Its too bad that people scape goat Obama when the problem lies within your systems. The rest of the world has changed, its time the US does too.
