He has held twice as many fundraisers as Bush, at this point in his presidency (nearly 400), has given more than 3000 speeches and personal appears, and has attended more than 1000 after-hours WH parties.
You say, "He is our first mobile president." I am wondering, "Why can't he be our first mobile fundraising party dog and a full-time, hands on, president?" If he can "walk and chew gum," he could be a full-time, hands on, president AND fundraiser, at the same time.
Or, maybe he really cannot do that. For certain, this "mobile presidency" thing isn't working.
Look, if he can be a "mobile president," he can be a "mobile fundraiser" for the very same reasons. So why the hell doesn't he do that? Again, I am thinking, "Because he can't do that."
REALITY
ReplyDeleteAs of last year.... President Barack Obama has taken 92 days of vacation since he was sworn in, compared to 367 for President George W. Bush at the same point in his presidency.

Virtually all of Bush's days at his ranch in Texas was spent in his office. All you have to do is check out his daily schedule. to suggest that Bush took 367 days OFF, is a rather stupid lie, especially in view of the fact that we have his daily schedule, written propositions and opinions, records of meetings with foreign dignitaries and the like.
DeleteObama has spent 90 days taking 186 trips to golf cours. That is time off. He has gone to 401 fundraisers ON OUR DIME - that is at least 200 days OFF, doing what he likes to do, talk and joke around. He has delivered more than 3500 speeches and personal appearances, 80% of which are time spent away from the job . . . . . or 1500 days doing nothing but talking . . . . to be conservative. He has attended more than 1000 parties at the WH which has consumed another 300 days if we count a "day" as 8 hours. In short, this is the most do nothing president in the past h 120 years !!!!! Don't believe me? Well, It was Wasserman Shultzs who told us two weeks ago, that his inability to get things done takes us back to Grover Cleveland (1897). She said that, not me.
Smithson in denial again. He is a master rationalizer and an excuse machine, typical of those like him who don't have the rigor or discipline to achieve much in their life and live off the gov't ... while they complain about the hand that feeds them.
ReplyDeleteLive off the government? What on earth are you talking about? My Social Security is my money, Slick, and, I am forced to be on Medicare, under ObamaCare.
