The 'vacation' presidency

When George Bush took a "vacation" it was usually at his ranch and he always worked during his vacations (both as a rancher and as president).
President Obama is ready to take his 6th vacation so far this year.
While president Bush decided to cut golfing during the Iraq war because it was not right to appear at leisure while the troops were in grave danger (and he got nothing but crap for it from the Huffington Post).
Obama's golf games have screamed right past Bush's and he hasn't even finished his first term.
To their credit, Huff-Po also slammed Obama.
The MSM is not particularly upset at Obama for the time off he has taken even though they bashed Bush every time he was vacationing during a crisis.
While Obama's vacations are more numerous, the actual number of days 'off' aren't much more than his predecessors, but the impression the public has is that he is ignoring the crises of his term and not working hard for the people.

Horses to get more vacation than you

New York carriage horses will get 5 weeks off as part of a package of work improvements included in a bill recently passed by the city council.
That's right! They get more vacation than a new employee at a Fortune 500 company.
Likely more vacation than a first year union worker.
They also get bigger stalls and cost of living increases.

Now if you will excuse me, I have to take the phone from my cat before she calls a lawyer.
