The Obama Administrations Recovery Summer just doesn’t seem to be working out as planned.  All of those “shovel ready” jobs were ready.  In June, Columbus Ohio announced the 10,000th stimulus financed highway project.  So what happened…we still have record unemployment. stock market is off and housing is in trouble.  Exisiting home sales hit a 15 year low.

So while Rome appears to still be burning, we find the Obamas living the good life in Martha’s Vineyard on a $20 million dollar estate they rented.  Not bad for the former junior state senator from Illinois.  This year so far they have vacationed in Hawaii, Bar Harbor, Chicago, Panama City, Spain and back to the favorite haunt of the liberal left, Martha’s Vineyard.  I guess since President Obama didn’t go to Spain, we can’t count that as a family vacation.

The trip to Spain was because Michelle promised a longtime Chicago friend who just lost her father that she would spend some time with her.  I guess they must have had no vacancy in Deadwood or Disneyland so she just had to go to Spain.

Still, as most Americans are pinching pennies and staying home for vacation it’s nice to see that the President and family get to share some quiet time together in some of the most expensive places in the country.  Good Job.
