Obama and Camp David

Edited on Wed Sep-02-09 12:42 PM by scheming daemons

Conservatives are up-in-arms about Obama spending another weekend at Camp David.

According to Politico:

When Obama goes to Camp David today, it'll be his tenth visit since taking office, according to CBS Radio's Mark Knoller. Obama has spent all or part of 20 days there, Knoller says.

George W. Bush traveled to Camp David 14 times during the same period. He spent all or part of 42 days there.

Scorecard 7.5 months in:

Obama: 10 visits, 20 days
Bush: 14 visits, 42 days

Blow me, freepers.

1. Didn't Obama's 20 days occur on the weekends, and if so,

are they saying that Obama is supposed to work 24/7 while chained to the WH desk?
