How many vacations has Obama taken since becoming the US president?
June 2, 2010
It seems like every other week, Obama and family are jetsetting away to Hawaii or Chicago, so just how many vacations has Obama taken since becoming president? How many vacations did Bush take?
Obama is on pace to become the most golfing president in US history.
He even blew off the funeral of nearly the entire government of one of our closest allies to golf. What a guy!
He’s taken very few. Even the President deserves 2 week’s vacation just like every other worker. And he’s taken far less than that. As opposed to Bush who literally spent more than 1/3 of his Presidency on vacation.
But really, what does it MATTER? Do you really think that in this day and age, the President isn’t just as in touch and "working" even on vacation? Do you think he doesn’t have a brief case with video conferencing to anyone anywhere?

You’re kidding me. This after Bush was on vacation most of the start of his presidency and then what happened?
Can you remember?
Oh yeah. The worst attack on America in the history of this country.

When ever he goes to any city in the US it is not for a vacation

He has a special place that he goes to for that

A vacation is when you get away from work and going to cities is not taking a vacation

For the president

And he has only had a couple of weekends at Martha’s Vineyard

Bush had quite a few at Martha’s Vineyard that is on a island off Cape Cod

You are not well informed. In reality, President Obama and all presidents who came before him are never really on vacation. They change locations occasionally but are working. Presidents are always available to problem solve.
George W took 977 days at Crawford and Camp David combined. 1/3 of his 8 years in office. I do not think the President of the United States needs to feel like he can never leave the White House!
