Jesus Mother****ing Christ, I thought this forum would at least be able to universally understand that the 'too much vacation when people is suffrin'' meme is bang your head against the wall retarded. Nope!

Re: Who Will Be the 2012 Republican Presidential Nominee?

3 months ago Obama had taken less time on holiday (defined as not being at the White House i assume, cos lets face it, they never truly take holidays) than Bush by this time and Bush had 9/11 and Iraq's invasion to deal with by now.

I assume that stat hasnt changed even if he took a 3 month holiday since then.

Re: Who Will Be the 2012 Republican Presidential Nominee?

bush was frequently criticized for the number of vacations he took so that's a pretty meaningless fact amirite?

Executives aren't judged on vacation time but on results. His results suck, is all that matters.

Re: Who Will Be the 2012 Republican Presidential Nominee?

The reality I heard the trip cost $5 million dollars. Thus, the reality is the 5,000 workers of America lost their ability to go to Hawaii to pay our leader so he can live it up in Hawaii. In his mind he was creating jobs.

They even had a ceremony at the airport where a lady in the airport was in tears getting a chance to shake the great leaders hand. Sort of the way people people of North Korea were crying when they lost their great leader that gave them food and public health care.

Man instead of fighting the last couple wars we could've borrowed money to send everyone on a Hawaiian vacation instead!
