Barack Obama's Busy Work Schedule
- Login to post comments
I started visiting the official White House schedule for The Won. Contrary to Lady M's assertions that Buh-rock is exhausting himself with work, I've discovered he's even lazier than we thought....he apparently can roll himself out of bed to occasionally take his first meeting of the day as early as 9:30!
So I've decided to post the daily schedules here (every day can be found at the link above, which has selectable criteria for day/or week). Since it's the beginning of the year, I'm going to c/p all of last week here, in the main body of the Forum, and I'll try to update daily (if anyone wants to help out by posting the daily update, be my guest)!
I think it's important we see how hard The Won is while not sacrificin' on vacay for us.
A couple of things to keep in mind: Note on that the staff "fills" much of the schedule up with THE PRESIDENT'S arrivals and departures to make it look like he's actually doing something!!! All items in italics are fund-raising or election related. (Add further observations below).

No pubic schedule.
Doncha know, all that singing our hard-working Prez did at fundraisers in New York City last night is tiring, tiring, tiring. Poor Barry, ending the week like he started it, with the day off.
Seriously. How lazy is this man?
As Aca just said, "it's good to be the King".
Bonus question. Does that performance qualify for the Gaffes & Goofs list?

Yep. On my bus ride in they mentioned that it is a gridlock alert day in Manhattan. Usually those days are between Thanksgiving and New Years.
Hopefully Odumbo won't screw my commute home with his money grubbing tour.
Wonder if he had time to say goodbye to Wasserman-Shultz parents while he was in Florida.
Where there as many parties in Florida for this event as when Sparky finally got Bundy?
Does anyone believe that if any notable Republican's parents were going away to jail that it would be front page and lead story around the nation for at least two days.

3:00 pm The President participates in an Ambassador Credentialing Ceremony

"The President receives..." lingo cracks me up.
Something else comes to mind when I see that, and it ain't Holy Communion ;)
Other than not hauling his lazy butt out of bed to start to work before 9 a.m., it appears that Barack overly relies upon Crazy Uncle Joe.
Look at these schedules. Joe Biden apparently sits in with Obama on every daily briefing, as well as lunching with him almost daily, as well as attending almost all meetings with the senior cabinet members.
The media was always harping about that evil Darth Cheney, the power behind the Bush throne. But no one even peeps the same question about The Won.
So I'll do it. Just who exactly is the junior partner in this dynamic duo?
Joe Biden, the brain behind the President.
Once you stop laughing it is hard to take such a statement seriously. Maybe he is just there to get coffee or clear the table.

What does this man DO?

I would love to know if we can access President G.W. Bush's schedules to compare to Odbumbo's.
I wonder what President Downgrade was doing on Jan 5. there is a huge gap between 10:50am and 3:30pm.
Here is some of GHWB daily records
So President Bush was up and at 'em by 6:00 a.m. every day, and in the Oval by 7:00 a.m. With his day usually finishing up around 8:00 p.m.
I would imagine W kept the same kind of hours. Not so for our Barry. He seems to think this is a 9:30 - 11:00 a.m. job.

If I had to start off each day with a meeting with Biden I would probably put it off as long as possible and be disoriented and unable to function the rest of the day as well.
His daily meeting w/Uncle Joe merely reinforces his "smartest man in the room" feelings.
Seriously, though.....that is the most pathetic schedule I've ever seen. As I said in my opener, I've been checking out the daily schedule for weeks. The only people he ever meets with are his inner circle, never members of Congress. No wonder he's delusional and paranoid.
