— Ace "Take vacations?" Is that the right way to say it?
When you're on vacation more than work, isn't it less "taking vacation" and more "a part time job with flex-scheduling"?
Anyway, of a piece with this morning's I Feel My Pain duo of Pity Poor Boy-King Obama bleats from the NYT and Katie Couric, here's AP, where the AP stands for Always Predictable:
Obama looks to boost Gulf tourism with family trip
Can I point out? For three days, then he's off to flood-ravaged, plague-sick Martha's Vinyard for ten days.
Feel the healing, Gulf!
I love how Obama's not really taking a vacation to take time off from his busy golf schedule but to heal a whole region.
President Barack Obama is heeding his own advice to American vacationers, taking his family to the Gulf Coast this weekend to help the sagging tourism industry.
The president will arrive Saturday and spend just over 24 hours in the Panama City, Fla., area, a quick jaunt in contrast to the family's upcoming 10-day vacation to Martha's Vineyard, known as a destination for the wealthy and privileged.White House officials dismiss questions about the length of the family's stay, saying that has no relation to the president's commitment to the region's recovery.
"The president is deeply committed to the folks in the Gulf region," said White House spokesman Bill Burton. He said Obama wants to ensure the people of the Gulf Coast are "made whole again after what was a terrible catastrophe."
Obama's been promoting the idea of Gulf travel as a way for Americans to help the region's recovery. The White House says the Obamas and daughter Sasha (her sister Malia's at summer camp) plan to spend much of their time in the Gulf enjoying the area's recreational activities.
Slublog, who sent this, noted that when Bush traveled places, he was called lazy and disengaged, and not credited with healing the land by his mere traveling through it.
You know what I'm thinking of, right?
No? And you call yourself geeks.
Skip to 1:15.
Yeah, now you see.
If that isn't clear -- the "Holy Grail" in the 1981 Exclaibur is the realization that Arthur and the land are one, and that he restores himself, and the droughted land, simply by riding through it -- suddenly dead trees bloom with glorious flowers.
Update: From Jim Geraghty's Morning Jolt, via ArthurK:
In related news [excerpted from an article]: "President Barack Obama is capping his birthday week with an afternoon of golfing on Saturday and a barbecue on Sunday." That's right: "birthday week."
Birthday week?
I think I might just take a birthday month one of these days.

So, it would also appear that all the hype is what has helped injure the Gulf Coast economies, & it's rather ironic that the President is now visiting after calling this disaster the worst in history. Perhaps if he & the media hadn't been so hysterical, more people would be visiting.
/Not saying that it wasn't a disaster, but rather that "the worst in history" was clearly a histrionic overstatement.

...& the sea creatures are returning, & the grasses in the marshes are regrowing.
So, is Sir Golfs-A-Lot going to respond in-kind, or will he pat himself on the back for Nature's work & other accomplishments while still blocking offshore drilling? Just curious as to which tone he's going to take while he's there.

As for Excalibur, I think it had a superb cast & I like how it (somewhat) follows Le Morte d'Arthur, but the sensationalism drags it down to Monty Python & the Holy Grail level. (Which I love the Monty Python version, but Excalibur is supposed to be serious.) Though it's much, much better than First Knight, so it has that going for it.

But Bush didn't travel anywhere except to his family homes at Crawford and Kennebunkport, Camp David on weekends, and the occasional state trip overseas. Bush was probably the least-traveling President we have had. And as we know, he famously stopped even playing golf after the invasion of Iraq.
The media turned on him when the 9/11 Commission released that PDB about Bin Laden and it was revealed that Bush received it at Crawford and didn't immediately interrupt his "vacation" and rush back to Washington. And it intensified when Cindy Sheehan and her fellow loons started going to Crawford to protest the war in Iraq.
It's not even apples and oranges to compare Obama's and Bush's travels. It's more like apples and bowling balls.

Seriously. I went to Panama City Beach over Labor Day last year, only because my dad died. It was horribly hot and it poured on Labor Day for his funeral. Would not go near the place before October or after May otherwise. (October and April are especially nice.) The only other people who go there in August are poor rednecks from Alabama who can't afford it when the weather is better. They have had a wilting heat wave and drought there this summer.
They also hate Obama. Don't know why the geniuses in the White House decided to send him there. It may kill Allen Boyd's slim chance of pulling out his Congressional race too. Hehehehe

This sounds like Clinton-era word-parsing. The fact is President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden have both praised the new Kenyan constitution, which legalized abortion. Obama told the Kenyan Broadcasting Corporation the pro-abortion document represented a “singular opportunity to put the government of Kenya on a more solid footing.” On another occasion, Joe Biden told a Kenyan audience it would “deepen the roots of your democracy.” Ironically, he added the pro-abortion constitution would also “unleash the energy of the youth.”
The advocacy was borderline criminal and thatÂ’s being generous. The State Department is circling the wagons.
If Kenya is writing a constitution to the approval of Dear Leader, then they've screwed themselves before they even start. Kenya will end up like every other corrupt African nation or the US. This just goes to show that God has given all of mankind numerous chances to become free and prosperous, but every time people refuse to take the responsibility to maintain it. Sad. But I think the US will become Kenya (or worse) in a few years. There's too many people in this nation that just don't care.

My problem is more that he's trying to portray himself as a savior while still using the spill as a means of hurting Gulf Coast residents.
/I would be somewhat satified if he shook hands with one of the engineers & other workers who helped seal the well, but he would never do that.

Given BO's personality and the media's willingness to indulge him, they are bringing out the worst in his personality traits.
When you treat a spoiled child like a spoiled child, they tend to act like one.

In my inbox this morning, from a lib...
Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel
"pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the romised land."
Nearly 75 years ago, Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your
asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land".
Now Obama has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of
Camels, and mortgaged the Promised Land!

Charlie Crisp is awesome. He's campaigning like a Democrats, which is extremely helpful to Rubio and, quite frankly, fucking stupid of Crisp.
He's against AZ law because it's racial profiling. Crisp ain't gonna steal away any Rubio votes with that kind of foolish liberal talk.

No mention of what was offered later that night in Chicago at Men's Country/by Oprah/whatever, of course.

And Martha;s Vineyard has been especially welcoming to blacks
Bill Clinton was the first one to welcome blacks to Martha's Vineyard so they could bring him coffee.

146 The constitutional referendum was actually more about people voting for security than anything else, is what it seems, though they were worried about the vote causing violence. My sister was there from June to July, & people in certain communities were on-edge due to the violence last time 'round.

I hope Obamacare has a vision plan, so all those scrunts who voted for him because they thought he was "hot" can get their eyes fixed.

Posted by: Miss'80sBaby at August 13, 2010 04:40 PMSo they voted in favor of all those things?
Sounds like November, 2008 here.
Except for the "greater checks on presidential powers" stuff, of course.

I'm trying to think back on my last real vacation.
I think it was in early 1992. Sure as hell can't afford one now, much less a five-star Narcissistic-O-Fest like the one the Traitor-in-Chief has awarded himself.
If any working person took as many vacations as Osama Obama, they'd only hear two words from their boss: "You're fired."
How about that, Congress?

Heh. In the Orthodox Church, it's the fast of the Dormition of the Mother of God. And a Friday.
But since it's also the beginning of Ramadan, I think we'll have ham.
