There isn't anything else to the report.  Does it seem like they are taking a vacation every single month?

He's already on record as being the most-traveled prez in U.S. history.

And this pretty well captures the rest of his arrogance and narcissism vis a vis vacations.

This is in response to the hell he caught for going to Maine after Chelle did that PSA about going to the Gulf

Obama is a reactive president, and he doesn't take criticism from the press very well.  He went quite a while without visiting the gulf region, and then after being criticized about it, he went overboard. He's now been down there about 8 or 9 times.

He's already on record as being the most-traveled "well rested" prez in U.S. history.

Doesn't he have enough vacations already? Also, has he vacationed in Chicago, his hometown? He may as well move the capitol to Chicago.

There's a really bad, totally tasteless tar joke that could be made here but won't be.... :-)

Kinda have to wonder though....just what will they do in the Destin/Panama City area, if that's where they are going? Other than the beach, playing golf, and going out to eat/bars....there isn't much to do there.

If they go there, I would think they would stay at Seaside, since it's ritzier. Unless they go down to Naples.

Wherever they go, I feel sorry for people who have had their vacations booked there for 6 mos or a year....cause the O's will turn the whole place into one big clusterf..... Lots of those places turn into partial to total non-refundable when it's less than 30 days to reserved time.

I can't imagine they would stay at Pensacola NAS....there aren't any hotels around that are "upscale" enough for them.  :whatever:

I'm sure Michael Moore will be making a documentary or blog post regarding all the time he's been on vacation or away from Washington while there's a war going on...

Any minute now...yep...(whistling)

Obama to holiday in southern Spain: reports

US President Barack Obama and his family are to take a holiday early August in the posh southern Spanish resort city of Marbella, Spanish newspaper El Pais and El Mundo reported Sunday on their websites.
Obama, who would be on his first holiday in Spain since becoming president, was to use the occasion to visit Spanish King Juan Carlos on the Balearic island of Mallorca, the two dailies reported, citing diplomats.
The president would stay at Marbella, a prime holiday destination favoured by the rich and famous, from August 4 to 8, according to El Mundo.
The newspaper said that originally only his wife and daughters were supposed to come.
The Spanish government could not confirm on Sunday that Obama and his family were coming.

WTF?  Is Obama taking off the whole month of August?
