Obama's schedule of late reads like a self-indulgent narcissist's dream come true:
April 23: Four days after the oil rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico, Barack and Michelle begin their golf-filled vacation in North Carolina.
April 26: Even after it is clear that thousands upon thousands of gallons of crude are spilling into the Gulf daily, Obama pays no real attention to the crisis. He's busy entertaining the New York Yankees at the White House.
April 29: Tired of campaigning for legislation in stops across the country, Obama stays in Washington, D.C.-and attends a DNC fundraiser at a private residence.
May 1: To freshen up before his photo op in the Gulf area the next day, Obama delivers a commencement address at the University of Michigan and then yuks it up with celebs at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner.
May 17: Obama hosts UConn's women's basketball team at the White House.
May 19: 30 days after the oil rig explosion, Obama enjoys the company of New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez as singer Beyonce provides a live performance at the White House State Dinner.
May 25: 36 days into the spill and after repeatedly stating that he would not rest until the leak was stopped, Obama attends a $20,000/plate dinner for Sen. Barbara Boxer in California. At the same time, a recently-taped sports interview with TNT's Marv Albert airs during an NBA playoff game.
And the whirlwind of fun is hardly over! His Memorial Day weekend vacation plans were changed to squeeze in another Gulf photo op this Friday. And, after he skips out on the usual Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, Barack will return to D.C. in time to host a concert with Paul McCartney at the White House.
With such a tight schedule, Obama hasn't had time to tend to a few important real-world matters. For example:
- Meeting with Arizona's governor about the illegal immigration crisis she's being forced to tackle almost singlehandedly
- Reading the Arizona law he continues to lambaste
- Doing anything to stop the oil spill other than demonize BP and reiterate that his boot is on the company's throat
To tamp down concern over its lazy response, the administration has leaked word that Obama-wait for it!-cursed as he vented his frustration. The president's order to "plug the damn hole" certainly proves his seriousness! With just enough luck his heavy lifting may be over soon and he can get back to plugging events into his social calendar.

Obama Rant 1
National debt is soaring, unemployment has risen to 10%, terrorist threats have increased, America has become a mockery worldwide, violence is on the rise along the Mexican border, we have a huge oil spill Obama has done nothing about, the stock market remains down, and the government now controls healthcare, the banks, Wall Street, the auto industry, student loan market, and on the way to controlling more.
Is this the Hope and Change America voted for in the fall of 2008?
Yep - it sure is.
It will take years to clean up this mess.
Thankfully America is waking up, it appears. Only 24% say Obama is doing a good job as President. The lowest ratings for a President at this point in a new term in our history.
He is a failure. And I told you he would be.
Funny how few are defending him these days.
Please, November get here faster so we can slow this destruction down and begin the long process of booting his rear out of office and restoring our pride, defense system, healthcare system, and financial standing in the world.

He Obama, Why Don't You Fix the 'Damn' Hole?
Is it just me, or does anyone else out there notice the lack of coverage Obama is getting regarding his total disregard for the huge oil spill in the Gulf?
He has done NOTHING. He hasn't even bothered to visit the site. What a joke.
History lesson - President Bush actually showed up on site just days after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. Though help was needed quicker, it did arrive. Bush was bashed for a year after words for doing nothing.
This oil spill, created by BP a HUGE supporter of Obama during the election, is going to be worse than the Exxon spill in the late 80s. Animals will be killed by thousands and people's livelihoods will be shattered. Obama wields the power and resources of the largest government in the world, yet he has done nothing but toot his horn from DC, saying stupid comments like he did yesterday...
"Fix the damn hole!" he said.
Well, at least he CAN get mad.
Geez...give me a break.
Instead Obama is more worried about defeating the new Arizona illegal immigration law which he has not even read himself (a whopping 10 pages worth) and he is spending time trying to get Don't Ask, Don't Tell repealed.
Nice job Obama. Glad to know you care...what a fraud.
You've been duped America.
