America's "Vacaying" First Family: A Portent?

America's "Vacaying" First Family: A Portent?

. . . As I’ve previously speculated, it may just be that Barack and Michelle smell major changes on their horizons, changes they believe in with as much intensity as they felt in 2008.

Former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs recently opined that Barack Hussein Obama isn’t wedded to his job as president and Obama has said much the same thing. He also predicted to Matt Lauer in February, 2009 that his presidency would be a “one-term proposition” if the economy did not recover in 3 years.

See his prediction, and his subsequent retreat, here: http://bit.ly/qXlPtj

In view of the unfortunate reality that, 2 1/2 years into his tenure, the economy shows no signs of recovery and is swirling in the toilet, it makes sense that the Obamas are packing their bags even as they continue to milk the president’s job for all its worth.

Recent actions by the First Couple reinforce the idea that they are planning to vacate the premises at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue on or about January 20th, 2013, or sooner should they get a better opportunity or if the president finally concedes ineptness and was unqualified to hold his office in the first place.

How else can we explain their contemptuous, callous disregard for the concerns of the American people during a critical time other than, one, either Obama simply wants out of the presidency or, two, he doesn’t have the slightest clue on what to do about the unemployment crisis, or both?

Now, no one could possibly begrudge the leader of the free world taking some R&R time and Allah only knows how hard Obama works–25/8, according to his bride!

Still, as in comedy, timing and appearances are everything in politics. . .
