    Last I saw, Obama had taken about half the number of vacation days taken by Bush.

    But when in The White House worked much more than Obama and didn't wander the halls aimlessly. When we elect a president, we expect them to be "presidential".

    As a 25 Year management professional; there’s nothing more valuable to a Management Leader than knowing the difference between Working Hard and Working Smart.

    Working early mornings, late nights, traveling to meetings, traveling from meetings and while on vacations … It’s what allows you the luxury of leisure and reason why you don’t have to answer to anyone who doesn’t know!

    I'm not sure how hard Barack Obama is working, but I do know it is harder than George Dubya Bush worked when he was President. Where was all that white Republican outrage then?

    There is a possibility that you are a management professional, and I say that by stressing "possibility", for as I have read your posts, I notice a difficulty with the English language. So either you are lying or have a great secretary. I hope it is the latter.

    Then I guess you need to look again, Pheobe. The liberal spin machine has it up for four times as much. Amazingly, the longer President Obama is in office and the more vacation trips he makes the fewer vacation days he has but President Bush's vacation days keep climbing in the liberal media and he's been out of office for three years. I know as often as President Obama blames President Bush it's easy to forget he's out of office.

    President Bush did go home fairly often. For some bizarre reason President Obama virtually never goes home. I guess he doesn't think he gets his money's worth that way. And, how often did Mrs. Bush and the girls go on luxury vacations on taxpayer money without President Bush? Did they ever?

    We're not defending Chimp Bush. To hell with him. We're attacking your Monkey King Obama as a lazy marmoset.

    The work ethic of the African American underclass is weak. They can't compete.

    I'm guessing, as for the president's day this was a lax day. Thing's don't happen overnight. Things take time.

    For instance, yesterday he had a meeting with a Prime Minister.

    Now is this everyday, no but then again neither is doing next to nothing one day.

    AS an employer, RESULTS always impressed me more than efforts without results.

    I once had a district manager [one I had inherited] complain that a local manager took too much time off during the day and left his employees in charge.

    I showed where this local manager had produced more local managers than all others combined and that his store produced 5 to 6 times more profits and volume than it ever had before. RESULTS, not smelly sweat. RESULTS with much sweat and the sweat doesn't smell, its hidden by the perfume of RESULTS.

    b.o. neither works hard nor produces positive results.

    Lazier than Bush ? No chance. Bushes admin did not even bother asking him what he wanted done half the time because he would get annoyed.

    "Why cant you do this on your own" .. so they stopped asking.

    It's amazing how stupid people can be when blinded by political party or ideology. Every US President works hard.

    Don't confuse blindness and malice. This is for keeps. Anything goes now.

    Ah yes, the old posting of the public schedule and presenting it as the only thing that the President does each day because President Obama is lazier than every other President that we've ever had.

    How often do you roam the halls of the White House to be able to witness the President roaming them aimelessly?

    This President is more Presidential than many of them before him. . . But absolutely more than the one who preceeded him!

    Bush was a dangerous fool who should never have been president. Obama is a bigger fool. He's the one getting Americans killed in Afghanistan for nothing.

    Hamid Karzai, president of Afghanistan met with Leon Panetta, US Defense Secty yesterday, and demanded that US troops get out of Afghan villages and stay on military bases. Karzai also demanded the withdrawal of all US troops next year.

    Obama said no. Can you believe that?

    The Taliban broke off all negotiations with Obama today. Now Obama is going to keep the troops in Afghanistan dying endlessly. And he couldn't do it without your support.

    It's funny how the partisan hacks of the right-wing love to claim that Obama doesn't work hard but then turn around to complain about all the things that he is doing...

    What does that have to do with anything. A stupid comment was made in relation to Obama/Bush work ethic and I just responded in kind.

    Every employee that I ever fired, did not work hard. But still found ample time to do incredibly STUPID things. obie is just like all of them.
