Vacation numbers; Bush 180, Reagan 112, Obama 61 during first 31 months in office

Yet there exists another reason why Obama is deserving of a vacation: he's taken far less time off than previous presidents have at this point in their tenure. In his first 31 months in office, Barack Obama has taken only 61 days of vacation time, compared to 112 taken off by Ronald Reagan 31 months in, and a whopping 180 days of vacation taken by George W. Bush at this time. And that's today's Daily Stat.

1. Republican presidents need more vacation
Their brains can't handle the hard work.

5. What?!
They aren't including President Obama's state visits as "vacation", like the loonies are doing? Every time he takes Michelle along somewhere, it's automatically a "vacation" to those assclowns. And, God help him if he dares bring the girls along. I mean, how dare he allow them to see how the rest of the world lives, rather than keeping them ignorant and sheltered like their brats are!
