Democrats attacked Bush for always being away ... now Republicans are returning the favor, and the Democrats reply: technology is amazing, we can get communications to him wherever he is.
The Washington Post reported today that Obama has taken nine vacations since taking office in 2008 for a total of 48 days. Some trips lasted just a day while others, like his Vineyard escape, lasted for a week-plus.
President Bush, by comparison, had taken 14 trips for a total of 115 days to his Crawford, Texas, ranch during the same period of his administration, the Post reported.
White House adviser John Brennan told UPI the president remains engaged, even while on vacation.
“Communication systems are very robust,” Brennan said. “We can move information at the speed of light. We can get to him very easily here.”
