First year of office:

Obama = 26
Geo. H Bush = 77
Clinton =21
Geo. HW Bush = 40
Reagan = 42
Carter = 19

Looks like the Dems value the taxpayer a little bit more by taking less time off.

Please somebody tell me what I'm missing. Does it really matter what other presidents did in the PAST? I am so tired of the blame game.

No Ans, it doesn't matter. What matters is what is happening today and all the tomorrows. But its a hell of a lot easier to talk about what someone else didn't do yesterday, than what you are not doing today.

Frankly, I wish the entire elected government would take a vacation.

I don't know whether to applaud Carter for his moderation or laugh at the naive dumbass for not knowing what he could get away with....

It seems some folks use history when it suits them (or they think it suits them) but want to look forward when it doesn't

Using the words Carter and "naive dumbass" is redundant.
