jwhop | unless or until you extend the payroll tax holiday. Call me when you get it done. I'll be vacationing in Hawaii!! Now that's real presidential leadership...leftist style!  Obama: Congress Shouldn't Go Home Until Payroll Tax Cut Is Extended... (I'll Be In Hawaii) by Jim Hoft 12/03/2011 In his Weekly Address Barack Obama told Congress they shouldn't go home for the holidays until the payroll tax cut is extended. Meanwhile... The Obama family announced they will be in Hawaii for 17 days this Christmas. That's Leadership. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=47923 |

katatonic | obama is not a member of congress, remember? he does not get to vote - only "choose what he will sign"...which comes AFTER they have DONE their job. |
Randall | That's not the point. It's about being a good leader. He expects them not to go home for Christmas. He's a poor leader and a hypocrite. A true leader leads by example. |
jwhop | Randall is right. O'Bomber is both a poor leader and hypocrite. Presidents are frequent parties to negotiations on difficult legislation between the political parties. There has been a vacuum of leadership in the White House since January 20, 2009. Here's O'Bomber publicly hectoring and lecturing Congress to pass legislation...or not go home for Christmas holidays...while he plans a "surfs up" Christmas holiday in Hawaii. Don't look now but...it's only leftists who can't see the hypocrisy oozing out of every pore of O'Bomber's body. |
juniperb | We do lead or teach by example and at this critical juncture in negotiations across the board, Obama is not setting a positive example by vacationing for 17 days . I see his aim for movement but ... It isn`t going to look very appealing to the voters who are on wavering on their vote. ------------------ Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. ~Rumi~ |
katatonic | funny, the reports i have seen say obama will postpone HIS vacation until the deed is done. the other obamas will be in hawaii with or without him. heinous? not. |
