    He actually took the longest "vacation" in the history of the presidency during the month of August 2001. But, again, much like the fact that President never "goes home", he never really "takes a vacation" either.
    The point is, the Reps are blabbing away about the dinner hour when their own guy took what some thought was an outrageous amount of vacation throughout his two terms (also he was a coke addict :lol:) ... just proves that they are full of shit.
    I think the President should put the country first, not have an arbitrary rule that he can not
    function as President during the evening hours ...
    that just makes me laugh and :fp: :lol:

    It was an evening news cast, both parties taking note of deliberate
    snubbing of his office agenda ... I believe it has been mentioned in threads here also,
    common knowledge he is at home for dinner every night :fp:

    hey but a quick google gave me this ...
    I bet it is here too :lol:

    My quick Google search revealed the following. Clearly this a case of someone's words and sentiment being twisted.

    "At 6:30 we make it a point, that if we're in town, no matter what the president is doing, we stop what we're doing, we sit down and and have a meal as a family," she said. Clearly it's not always possible with the president's schedule, but it's a high priority, she says.

    Hardly everyday, hardly a firm rule.

    still waiting for you to answer my question; what is wrong with a president (or anyone for that matter) having dinner with his/her loved ones? i see nothing wrong with it at all and it speak volumes of his/her morals and their commitment to the sanctity of his/her marriage. the man is simply dedicated to his wife and children and they are number one in his life.

    what the fuck is wrong with this?

    Obviously, a former speechwriter for George W. Bush and Donald Rumsfeld can be trusted to deliver an unbiased opinion piece on Barack Obama.

    i think i actually know the real reasons your guy may have missed a few evening dinners, miss. but i am being nice here. this may be the actual fact of why you are so bitter & against Mr. Obama having dinner with his loved people.

    enjoy your evening, pand.

    Hey read back through the thread one poster here mentions Obama speaking of his
    daily schedule, I haven't been able to find Obamas words as that poster did though.

    He took more vacation time than any other President in the history of the United States.

    Yet again, does anyone think a president can't do his or her job from anywhere?

    And technology is the reason this will increase with more recent presidents. But don't let reality stop you from buying into the nonsense and one liners/sound bites.

    A President can do their job if its important to them ... yes.
    Focus focus focus.

    The other thread brought up our military budget cuts and bringing home our troops
    as one poster mentioned.

    What effect will that have on our historic unemployment rate?

    How will our service people do coming home to a weekly check and no work?
    That transition from being valuable, hero status to feeling unproductive
    in society. Terrific disconnect.

    Will the budget cuts cause, as predicted, great lay offs in industry related to
    the military?

    And the budget cuts will they just get eaten up by more social services and unemployment
    costs?

    At the same time making the USA more vulnerable with a less active defense?

    Pickle pickle pickle...
