Don’t Forget The Sunscreen: Vacation For Obama, Lawmakers Trumps Problems Facing Nation

With no solution yet for automatic budget cuts due to kick in March 1, both President Obama and congressional lawmakers were decamping from Washington Friday for vacations.

Mr. Obama is heading to Florida for a four-day, President’s Day weekend of golf lessons and relaxation with a wealthy campaign donor who was once the target of anti-minority bias complaints, while first lady Michelle Obama reportedly will vacation separately in the ski mecca of Aspen, Colo.

Congress will be in recess for the next 10 days, not returning to work until Feb. 25, four days before the “sequestration” cuts are to take effect.

You can not make this crap up! No budget, 1 Trillion dollar budget deficit, 2 wars, 16 Trillion dollar debt, highest level of welfare and he is wasting the tax payers money playing golf. Not to mention what it is costing to send the first lady and her friends on a ski vacation. What are we thinking?

Didn't they just get back from vacation in Hawaii?

And said George Bush golfed too much.

That is what I was thinking. Didn't they just get back from a vacation in Hawaii at the end of December. And this is what--February. How many freaking vacations do they need?
