Oh, poor Mr. President. It’s really, really hard being the first president in history with the press following your around. They’re so mean!
Obama on MTP: "Part of what I'd love is a vacation from the press." Good luck with that

Yes, good luck Mr. President.
Pro tip for the future: If the president wants to avoid the press during his vacation, maybe choose a destination other than Martha’s Vineyard. The rich and famous on the island basically guarantee the press will cover the vacation in force.

Obama does not know that he did not help himself . "I was supposed to be on vacation" "the press know me I'm awesome"

@markknoller Taking vacation seems to be one of the few things that Obama is good at. He gets lots of practice at it.

This is true, however:
@markknoller @slone You have to admit it gets tiresome to have people constantly slobbering over you.

Exit question: Why doesn’t the president ever feel the need to take a vacation from high-dollar fundraisers?
