The President’s Taboo Vacation

Third day in a row of rain here at Martha’s Vineyard. What’s a vacationing president to do?

Federal employees earn vacation at different rates depending upon how many years they have worked for the federal government. The first couple of years they only earn 4 hours per pay period (every 2 weeks) and then until they have been employed by the federal government for 15 yars they earn 6 hours per pay period and after 15 years they earn 8 hours per pay period. The idiot in chief has less than 15 years of federal employment but has taken well vacation at a rate well in excess of 8 hours per pay period, time to dock his salery for missing days at work.

At least AF-1 is parked for a few days! That sucker costs us more than a million bucks for every junket, probably more if one adds in all collateral costs.

Saying Obama is a disaster is an understatement.
