What Obama Said About Taking Vacations in 2008!

[sirs]

So let's placate the deflection before anything else....no one claimed "it was a race", of any kind.  Which pretty much make the rest what followed that deflection effort moot

.

Since you hate all he does, his vacations should make you happy, since he cannot do as much of all that stuff you do not like while he is on vacation.

Actually this is a pretty good point!
The less he steers , the less he gets us lost.

It is mostly what he does that I don't like , he seems like an affable person that could carry on an interesting conversation, I would not mind having him as a neighbor.

Unfortunately I have him not as my neighbor , he is my boss. With four years of pay freeze and a furlough ,I don't feel like praising him as an employer.

Oh yes , sometimes I also do not like how he talks, like calling on increased hiring and pay raises on the  part of industry while he throttles back on the DOD.

Believe it or not we civil servants used to have a pretty good insurance package , including coverage of preexisting conditions, we still have the benefit , but we pay a lot more for it now.

  So yes , if I were to pay his green fees and get him out of his office an extra day, might be a good idea, might be worth the investment.

He will remain president. His vacations are of no real importance.

And you ARE most certainly making all this into some sort of stupid race, sirs. Read the crap you posted.

[sirs]

I have read it.  I also keep reading how you perpetually try to argue points never made, like this is some supposed race.  oy.      His plethora of vacations would be of real importance if this were a GOP President who had said he had no intentions of taking frequent vacations 

A race requires there be some sort of finish line, with some "reward" at the end.  Since you insist on arguing a non-issue, to placate this fantasy of yours, what do you think that I think is the finish line, and what does the person win?

[Xavier_Onassis]

What is to be won?
In a political contest?

You don't know?

[sirs]

You generally answer questions with a question?  Let's try again...you keep erroneously claiming that I'm making this about a race, like Nascar, that you then claim this isn't a race.  So, if I'm supposedly thinking this is some Nascar race, what do you think that I think is the finish line, and what does the person win?

[Xavier_Onassis]

I did indeed say that you think of what you call "political debate" to be some sort of contest. To "win" these contests, you ask silly question or questions that make no sense at all and claim victory when I tell you that the question is silly and makes no sense. You seem to think that you have won onlt=y when the other person abjectly prostrates himself metaphorically before you, while you gloat. Please not that this has never actually occurred. Yo do not seem interested in discussing issues, you want admission that you are right and a statement that the other person was wrong.

[sirs]

If you can't answer a simple question, why post?  Does it make you "feel better"?   

[Xavier_Onassis]

Not answering your stupid questions brings mirth to my day and a bounce to my step. It's like leaving a casino with $500 of their money.

[sirs]

Not answering also reinforces how wrong you were in the 1st place.  Touche'   

[Xavier_Onassis]

Your place is always the last place. Your prize, the prize of Booby.

[sirs]

Which ironically keeps reinforcing my point.  Your contribution is indeed appreciated.  You may now return to your regularly scheduled ignoring of both the facts and point of the thread being made

[Xavier_Onassis]

There is no point. You made no point.
If you do not like Obama, then you should rejoice when he is away from his job.

[sirs]

Actually I did......the original point being the one how Obama himself declared of the "sacrafices" a President AND his family must make, as it relates to vacations, now demonstrating precisely the opposite.  A point that remains unrefuted.

Then the follow-up point was to declare how I was thinking this whole political process is some Nascar race, and then demonstrably refuting that it isn't, when I never claimed or even implied it was in the 1st place.  Then when asked to demonstrate how I supposedly was making it some race, you couldn't be bothered to support that claim either

And now you've shifted back into the same nonsense of snarking & demonizing.  But yea, you're right about one thing, as I share it with Plane, and a majority of the rest of the country, that Obama doing nothing, is a prescious gift & reprieve.  Can't wait until it comes to a full blown stop, come Nov.
