OT - President Obama just did the Mic drop on The Tonight Show

Oh, wow! I accidentally navigated to the "POLITICS FORUM". I'll just go back to the NFL Football Forum.....

People often talk about the amount of stuff Obama does and says that he takes a lot of time off. Truth is GWB had more vacations during his presidency than Obama.

First of all, Source.
Second. Is GWB the standard? Does Obama get a free pass because allegedly, GWB did in more?

Once again the political vortex sucks me in.

Presidential Vacations

Presidential Vacations

And I quote

"the numbers say more about how many days the presidents spent away from the White House than they do about how much time the presidents spent not working."

BTW, Obama faces more scrutiny than any other president. For example, he also gets grilled for his executive orders and pardons. Both of which Bush had more of. The readon I compare to Bush is beause he is the most recent other president and the people scrutinizing are usually Republicans.
Executive Orders
An Obama rarity: 13 pardons

So how do we know who was and wasn't working while away from the White House?

Exactly. You are going to slant it the way that fits your agenda.
