Given the president's fanatical devotion to avoiding work at all costs, below is a list of his top ten (and, really, his ONLY ten) favorite activities. This Barack's list, of course, Michelle has one too, but the first seven things are all "shopping with other peoples' money", so it isn't as interesting. Behold: www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=423811. Golf: A lot of Americans wish they had the time, let alone the money, to hit the golf links twice a month. The day after the Japan earthquake and tsunami, Obama played his 61st round of golf, fewer than 26 months into his presidency. 2. Foreign travel: All modern Presidents have taken foreign trips, but President Obama knows how to combine pleasure with business, often picking hot vacation spots such as this weekend's trip (with his family) to Rio, where sightseeing will be mixed with meetings. And Michelle Obama’s extravagant summer trip to Spain with an entourage of friends and security (but not her husband) during the depths of America’s economic woes invited comparisons to Marie Antoinette. 3. Vacations: The Obama clan likes to spend time on tony Martha’s Vineyard in August and go to Hawaii for a lengthy family visit around the Christmas holiday. They’ve taken a long weekend in Chicago. And a trip out West to the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone. And time at a beach in Florida. Plus several jaunts to New York for high-society events. In fact, he has taken nearly a dozen vacations since becoming President. 4. Dining out: Whether dining high-on-the-hog or slumming it at Ben’s Chili Bowl, this is a President that likes to eat. After all, his culinary exploits once inspired this headline on a blog following the first family during a Martha’s Vineyard vacation: "Obamas Depleting U.S. Lobster Supplly." 5. Playing basketball: At times it seems that Obama would rather be an NBA star than President. He has a regular pickup basketball game with friends, and even played some hoops last summer with NBA stars LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. But his passion comes with some danger: Last year an opponent’s elbow cut the first lip, requiring 12 stitches. See link for the rest... |
