You can't really compare the vacations of past Presidents to the current one...like stated in that article, President GW Bush took more vacation days in his first year of his administration than President Obama did in his first year. But, President Bush didn't have a war on his hands and another just ending. He didn't have to lead a country out of a recession, or have to deal with a Congress and House that can't agree with each other even for the good of the country, and deal with the most serious debt in our history.
It's just not the same, at all. Also, I don't think a true "vacation" really exists for a President...wherever he is, at whatever time, he can and does make the decisions that keep us going. However, it's easy to tell when a President actually puts effort into that from when they don't. And I think that President Obama has put the least amount of work and effort into his Presidency than any in recent times...He just looks like he doesn't care. Like I've said, many times, we need a leader. Pres Obama is alot of things, but he is nowhere close to being a leader. You can be molded into it, but most of the ability to lead and the gut you need for it is in your DNA. You just have to be born with it.
We really, really need a leader right now. And we still have another year to go of war and uncertainty with nearly everything before we have the possibility of getting one..
