Yesterday the Pres was in the state checking the devastation in Colorado Srings.
I notice that before this visit some of the conservative media complained that Obama hadn’t spoken with Gov. Hickenlooper in 15 days and that he’d attended 21 campaign events and 18 fundraisers during that time.

Keep in mind that the article in the examiner leaves out some crucial information. The destruction area he toured was from a fire that started on June 23rd and then came roaring into Colorado Springs a few days later. The other major fire in the state is in an area not as populated (it still destroyed close to 200 homes but has been burning since June 9th.
Not making a case for all of the campaign events just trying to provide some prospective of the scope.
Also the following other states have fires:
Utah fire size 150 square miles
Montana fire size 246 square miles
Wyoming 100 square miles
Idaho 1,038 acres
and lastly my home with 5 current fires going of various sizes.
This link can provide and idea of how many and where.
Fair enough. Sounds pretty bad over there. I hear tell of crazed bears wandering around displaced by the fires.

Seriously? His public calendar isn’t going to include phone calls, or his every meeting or move. I’ve read articles that he routinely puts his family to bed and stays up late reading briefing.
C’mon, this isn’t anything. What are they going to do, include an Outlook entry that says “Meet with Joint Chiefs of Staff to discuss bombing options in Iran”?
This isn’t credible evidence that Obama is somehow mailing it in with half-days.[/quote]
This is absolutely right. As much as I want Obama out of office, I can’t pretend like the dude isn’t busy. What did YOU guys do today? Went to work, went to gym, did a few errands after work … probably nothing terribly Earth shattering either.
He might be a shitty politician and a constitution bending liberal, but I’m pretty sure the man puts his hours in. I remember years ago when everyone was giving GWB shit about his vacations at the ranch. Now I’m seeing articles about the media giving Obama shit about his golf outings. Ridiculous.
LOL at OP honestly thinking Obama does nothing all day.

Where did I say that? Obama is very busy. Golf, fundraisers, basketball, hamburger joint, campaign event, golf, fundraisers etc.

^Everything you’ve listed is a public event. Naturally, it’s going to seem like that’s all he is doing because that’s all you’ll ever see him do. Sounds a lot like every other president.
Pretty sure he just visited Colorado after the wild fires on Friday. Again, a public event, but appropriate for POTUS.
When did we ever hear GWB doing “regular work”? Not often. I’m pretty confident he stayed busy, too.

All of your points in this post and your last have already been addressed in this thread more than once.

You are a complete retard.
It amazes me how some people will say such moronic shit to “prove” their political viewpoint.

Uh huh. But there’s nothing in particular you disagree with though?
So now that its established Obama doesn’t do any real work. Who is to blame for this new health care bill named after him? Even the task of getting other people to write it for him would be a lot of work, so if he was golfing who was responsible for it?

There’s not much for me to argue. You’re saying the President gets out of bed at 10am then doesn’t do much for the rest of the day.
You are like the nut jobs I occasionally see shouting the world is about to end. Sure, I disagree with them. Do I enter into a long debate as to why I think they’re wrong? No, because they are so obviously idiots.
I was not aware one could not reiterate statements previously mentioned in a thread. No wonder threads get so far off topic so quickly.

Nameless, faceless bureaucrats are responsible for actually writing that 2700 page monstrosity.

LOL.
This thread is so fucking weak.
Can only guess it is a troll thread.

What’s that got to do with the story about Obama taking the week off?

It’s not the reiteration of statements previously mentioned that bothers me. It’s the reiteration of claims previously debunked numerous times. Like your assertion that everything I have posted is a “public event.” Meeting with the Joint Chiefs of Staff is not a public event. Meeting with advisors is not a public event. It gets tedious explaining the same thing to several different posters.
