Obama Is 'Amused' - America, Not So Much

according to the President, if only the members of congress could move as fast as a pair of 10 and 13 year old girls, they'd be able to fix the mess he's created. However, if the President is to be believed, they have no intention of doing so. Congress is just too busy taking vacations. Obama lashed out at this practice, claiming that while Senators and Representatives have been in and out of town, vacationing and partying like latter day F. Scott Fitzgeralds, he's been left alone in Washington, doing all the work. "They're in one week. They're out one week," Obama scolded. "And then they're saying Obama's got to step in — you need to be here, I've been here, I've been doing Afghanistan, bin Laden, and the Greek crisis. You stay here." Really? A president who's played more golf in two years that most can squeeze into eight is taking the anti-vacation moral high ground? Is this the same Barack Obama who, in 2009 and 2010 enjoyed frighteningly expensive Martha's Vineyard vacations? Is this the same Barack Obama that is currently planning a third such excursion? Didn't we all watch with rapt attention as the President and first family took multiple vacations to Hawaii, one of which he reluctantly interrupted to deal with a pesky terrorist attack over metro Detroit? Wasn't this the man who once used the hundred thousand dollar per hour Air Force One to whisk his wife away for a Broadway dream date? Evidently, no. This Barack Obama is new.
