Five myths about presidential vacations - "During his eight-year presidency, Bush did take 879 days of vacation, including 77 trips to his Texas ranch. So far, Obama has taken about 150 days off."
Just how many vacation has Obama taken since January 2009?
How does he compare to his two-term predecessor, George W. Bush?

It's not the vacations...it's the timing. Same with the golf course. Obama talks about the ISIS beheading of an American and then off to the golf course and smiling broadly within the hour. The perception is a disconnected president. Every president golfs, even those who did not know how....like Clinton(aka mulligan Clinton). Obama just can't work out when it's a bad time to head for the links.
What do you think he should have done?

I think he should have used common sense.

The big problem that some people on the right have with Obama is that he beat them twice and he's still in the White House.
Guess what? He'll be there until another Democrat takes his place in 2017.
that doesn't really answer the question.
What you might think is common sense may not be considered common sense to another person.
So I ask again. What do you think he should have done. Would sitting in the Oval Office have stopped this guy from getting his head cut off.
So what do you think of Congress taking a vacation now? Don't you think there are pressing matters at hand?
`It's not the vacations...it's the timing.
Son....Congress is the legislative branch. They are not the commander in chief.

"When is the world not in a crisis?" The only people who get a bad impression from the Obama vacations is the far right....Cognitive bias.

Doesn't the one-month recess they just had end tomorrow anyway? Back to good old gridlock?

Son if they really cared they can offer up solutions.
