When George W. Bush left the White House to "get away" from it all, he was frequently chastised by members of the Left, and their undying supporters in the media, for "taking too many vacations" and "running from the problems" that Americans face every day.
Now that Barack Obama is President, what do you think the reaction is when he leaves the White House to "get away from it all?"
If you guessed glowing adoration and praise, along with an endless series of excuses, give yourself a hearty pat on the back. Courtesy the Obama-worshiping Julie Mason of the usually fairly conservative D.C. Examiner:
Already tiring of the constraints of Washington life, President Obama is making a jailbreak of sorts — getting away from the White House as often [as] possible and returning to campaign-style audiences.

Obama today is off to Springfield, Ill., for an event marking the bicentennial of Abraham Lincoln’s birth. He and his family will spend the weekend, including Valentine’s Day, at home in Chicago. That’s a solid week with at least a daily trip away from Washington.
The leftstream media are elitists. Many of the upper elitists are socialist in nature and ideology. Many have agendas that border on anarchism.
Pushing out Pres Bush, seen as the establishment, and placing one of their own, who happens to be black (zingers to those racists conservatives) is seen as anarchism. They have succeeded in their wildest dreams of putting one of their own in to the office that controls spending and freedoms. This is what they want to happen.
And, you will rarely ever see leaked reports of military or secret government activities during the next few years from the leftstream media.
