President takes break from vacation
I just thought this was funny that the Associated Press is reporting that the President is taking a break from his vacation;
President Barack Obama returned to Washington just after midnight Monday for a two-day break from a summer vacation, during which airstrikes in Iraq and violent clashes in a St. Louis suburb intruded on his golf and beach plans.
The exact reason for Obama’s return remained unclear, though it appeared aimed in part at countering criticism that Obama was spending two weeks on the Massachusetts resort island of Martha’s Vineyard in the midst of multiple crises. His return to Washington was planned even before the U.S. military began striking targets in Iraq and before the standoff between police and protesters in Ferguson, Missouri.
Obama had meetings on both matters scheduled for Monday. The president was scheduled to return to Martha’s Vineyard Tuesday night.
Whew! At least he’s going back on Tuesday, so we can feel less guilty about making him work during his vacation.

Honestly, why he just doesn’t stay on vacation is beyond me. I mean, it seems like Valerie Jarret and the rest of the Clown Car Posse administration is doing what passes for work anyway. He just shows up when called for to act all presidential, sign something, read something off the teleprompter, then head back to the golf course or jet to some fundraiser.
He’s just a front for the real powers. An empty chair that ought to have never been set out to start with.
Most people “take a break” from matters they consider important in order to do something that’s less important. Good to see that at least the AP knows where the POTUS’s priorities are.
LOL, “taking a break from vacation” Even AP is turning snarky about the fund raiser in chief. The longer he’s away, the better.
Doing the country a favor. Wonder if he could just stay in place for a while longer. Like until January 2017.
What’s going on in Texas is really pissing me off. I am no huge Rick Perry fan, but this “indictment” against him is a f’n joke. That drunken cunt (3 times the legal limit DUI) forfeited her right to suck at the public tit as a result of her antics. The indictment comes from the same camp that has an orgasm every time BHM says “I have a pen!”.
Well “I have a pen” is morally equivalent to saying “I have a gun”, and yet it is Rick Perry that is coercive when acting (legally) in accordance with our state constitution. F them.
It’s Austin, what do you expect? They pulled the same crap with Tom Delay and I expect this will end up the same way: drawn out too long before final exoneration.
Man…I am getting worried about Obama. The guy must be swamped with all this national, leader of the free world business to take a break from vacation. I hope he can get back to the links soon. /sarc/
I feel so SAFE and SECUR not that our Dear Leader is returned!
Must have been some Islamist back group needing help or our money
DirtDart…Or he’s really concerned (read that, looking for poll up ticks) because if his new found “son”, in Ferguson, MO.
Maybe he’s just coming back to play Belvoir/Andrews since they are free and he can inconvenience military instead of the Vineyard elite?
Or maybe to take a break from Mooooochelle and grab a burger?
Play a round with Regie?
Play a round with Reggie… comic genius!
Thank you sir.
SJ…Ah yes, let’s not forget Moooooooooochelle. The first, first lady since Eleanor Roosevelt who can eat an apple through a picket fence. Sorry just my distorted way of seeing things. Apologies to Eleanor too, she was a huge, class act, compared to Michelle Obama.
Y’all please excuse me for bein’ an evil “racist” Vast Right-Wing Conspirator for asking this if you can, but –
1. How many Veterans could have had their issues addressed and solved –
2. How many hungry kids could have been fed –
3. How much of our porous, lawless Southern Border could have been secured with properly trained and equipped Personnel –
With the money that B. Hussein 0bama & Family have spent ON JUST ONE of their lavish vacations they’ve enjoyed at taxpayers’ expense?
Proud…Nothing evil, racist or conspiratory in your questions in my mind. Obama is one of the biggest racists to ever occupy the Oval Office. He is the first president with a true welfare mentality. “I’m takin’ and gettin’ mine cause it’s owed to me! After all, it’s good to be King, and I’m a gonna get it while the gettin’s good”.
Veterans, hungry kids, the Southern Frontier, AKA the “Badlands” now? Those are UNIMPORTANT issues to Obama and his wife when it comes to gettin’ (make that TAKING) what they believe is OWED to them.
Were I a welfare recipient and looked at Obama’s way of life and “gettin’ his”, what would be my incentive to not also, “get mine”.
I am fed up with this mendacious, selfish, self serving useless stain on America, who’s very presence in the White House and the office he holds, is an absolute insult to me and every tax paying American, veteran and all others he has screwed over. Not to mention his unspoken disdain for America and our Constitution. God forbid anything should ever happen to cause a true need for martial law in this country. He would truly be “The Emperor” then.
