Me-Time for Obama

Me Time legacy building going on here boss

“   Mr. Obama has had terrible luck when it comes to work interfering with play. The family’s Hawaiian vacation in 2009 was interrupted by the Christmas Day attempt to bomb a plane. Their attempt to relax in Martha’s Vineyard in August of that year was cut short by the death of Senator Edward M. Kennedy. His visit to Indonesia, where he spent several years as a child, was delayed by the final votes on the health care bill. [New York -what happened to the pay-wall?- Times] ”

Firming up the legacy I did a "how many Obama vacations" search,  and could only find the figure "six,"  from last year.  I did find several "not as many as Bush during the same relative period" answers, so it's obviously become an embarrassment to Bam-pologists.  Anyway, as ACE observed [Obama on Verge of Government Shutdown: Hey, I Think I've Earned Another Vacation!]: “ You know, I think that's the way to beat this guy: Just keep controversies brewing every week. He'll resign rather than miss his me-time. ” The shut-down is scheduled to begin at midnight tonight.  The biggest sticking point for Demorats?  Save Planned Parenthood's subsidized abortion funding!  There's been various stories about  gummint worker angst over just which services will be frozen.  Puh-leeze. The answer, as always, is whatever will inconvenience the public the most, and make the best backdrop for Democrat-media wailing.  The museums, national parks, and do you freaking believe the military? Yup. The military.  Demorats may be making a huge error there.  We are no longer, I perceive, a nation that will show the constraints of civil behavior in time of need, and I would think the last people you'd want to piss-off are the people with the big guns.  One Hellfire missile into the Senate office building would be a godsend, however.  Disclosure: I love this country, but I fkng hate this gummint.
