Republican hypocrisy can still shock me

I know, I know it shouldn't. But really...

"President Obama and his family leave Friday for a weekend getaway to Maine, but along with a little rest and relaxation comes criticism that the president is taking it easy with the Gulf of Mexico oil crisis in a critical phase....The trip marks the president's third vacation since the oil disaster began in April"

(If you're keeping track it's his 7th getaway (Most for a weekend, like this trip) since taking office January 2009.)

""Presidents are certainly entitled to vacation... but there is a fine line as to when presidents should do it, what they should (do) and where they should do it," said Brad Blakeman, a former member of President George W. Bush's senior staff."

How did Mr. Blakeman's boss stack up? President Bush spent over 900 days at his "Ranch" in Texas (one third of his 8 years in office) and 487 nights at Camp David (Not including 100 nights listed as "official trips" such as when he hosted a visiting dignitary for an overnight visit).


The Liberal Media Again

To me, a comment like this means there is no other ammo to throw without substantial backwash.

There is no there there.

Critical phase? I thought the critical phase was when the oil was being shot out of the pipe.

Yeah, doesn't even make me blink.
