Why is everybody always complaining about the number of vacations that Obama takes?

Jimmy Carter’s second term: Why is everybody always complaining about the number of vacations that Obama takes?
I want him to take all the vacations he can, I think he is due for another one right now. In fact if we wants to take the next two years off that would be fine with me.

You’re right, Bush has him beat 3:1.

“This is Mr. Obama’s 9th vacation since taking office. As of today, he has spent all or part of 38 days on “vacation” away from the White House. He has also made 14 visits to Camp David spanning all or part of 32 days. It brings his total time away to all or part of 70 days.

“It’s less than the “vacation” time taken during the same period by his immediate predecessor. (Former President George W. Bush gets the quotation marks too.)

“As of this point in his 1st term, Mr. Bush had made 14 visits to his Texas ranch spanning all or part of 102 days. He also made 40 visits to Camp David spanning all or part of 123 days. His “vacation” total at this point in his presidency was all or part of 225 days away.”

Answer by Glad to be here!
Our economy is in the tank and our leader is on TV on vacation all the time. Doesn’t that seem a little ridiculous?

I agree.

Answer by becca
This isnt a pro football player or a hollywood actor. This is the President of the United States. Yes he has not taken as many vacations as Bush but didnt Barack promise change? In one of Baracks speeches he made it a point to say that he would not use tax payers money to take vacations in a private jet like previous Presidents. So whats so different now?
