• Obama Heads North, Not South for Weekend Vacation

[release]When President Obama sat among local officials at a snack bar in Pensacola, Florida last month, he emphasized that the Sunshine State's beaches were "open for business" and vowed to do everything his administration could to help those in the region. Well, maybe not everything. When the president and his family go away later this week for a mini-vacation, they'll be traveling almost 2,000 miles away from the oil spill, escaping the heat in Washington for the cooler weather up north at Mount Desert Island, Maine. Yet the vacation spot being touted by Michelle Obama on Monday was the Gulf coast. During her first trip to the region after the oil spill, the first lady encouraged Americans to head down South and visit, emphasizing that "most of the coast is still open for business.” Mrs. Obama lamented that many are only seeing what has been reported in the media about the oil spill, and thus might not realize there are plenty of towns and beaches along the Gulf Coast that are awaiting tourists. “Most of these beaches are perfectly clean," she said. When asked if the first family was making arrangements to vacation along the gulf beaches, especially after encouraging others to do so, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said no vacation plans had been changed. ...[/release] [url=http://whitehouse.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/07/13/obama-heads-north-not-south-for-weekend-vacation/]Fox News[/url]
[b]stop the fucking presses obama is taking a vaction[/b]
Him swimming in the fucking oil won't make it magically go away.
I like it up North too.
You would think this guy would have learned the first 2 times.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;23396014][b]stop the fucking presses obama is taking a vaction[/b][/QUOTE] He is already done kicking the asses of the people responsible for the oil spill?
I don't blame him. I'm from the South. It fucking sucks.
North USA is best USA
Why is this news? Obama needs to take a vacation, if he doesn't start now he'll never beat Bush's record for most time spent on vacation as president, especially if he doesn't get reelected.
Southern USA sucks even without the oil spill, frankly. I doubt he wants to go there on a vacation so he can hear people from the Tea Party yell shit at him while he takes a relaxing stroll down an oil filled beach.
He's taking a break, honestly it's not a big deal, I would too if I was him. Did you honestly register an account called "FoxNews3" so you can post news from FP's most hated source?

The thing is this article isn't focusing on the fact that he's taking a vacation, it's focusing on the fact that he's going NORTH why the hell does that matter
