Poor Obama, he never gets a day off.

Evidence that Michelle is lying.............................?

And yet, according to you, Michelle Obama is a "co-president" because Bill Clinton...blah blah blah...

It was legitimate to question whether Michelle's statements should given any significance. And equally legitimate to respond to that question by pointing out that there is precedent within the democratic party for making First Ladies co-presidents, and therefore someone whose statements should be given significance. And it was also legitimate to mention Palin when I was attacked as being a "little deranged" for paying attention to what Michelle said. But a discussion of Bush's and Reagan's days off is far outside the OP topic. :D
 
Tricky, you're making valid arguments. Valid arguments have nothing to do with the OP. You're off-topic.

Of course, Hilary Clinton wasn't actually a "co-President" at all.
 
Again, do we have any evidence that Michelle lied other than BAC's assumption that Barack must be horribly lazy?
 
I heard that one time she got all frustrated and said to her children "I get so frustrated...you never eat your vegetables".

recently there has been a picture leaked of at least one of her children eating a piece of food that was later confirmed to be a vegetable and also image dated to before her controversial "never eat vegetables" claim.

The woman is obviously some sort of pathalogical liar.
 
Is it "unsupported assertion hour" already?

Okay, I declare that if wasn't for Obama we'd have lost ten million more jobs!

Ha. Check and mate.
 
In contrast to his demand for semantic rigidity in this thread, let's take a stroll down memory lane and look at what BAC had to say when he was asked to substantiate his claim that "we've been told over and over and over [Obama's] the smartest guy to ever sit in the Oval Office":

So could someone explain to me why BAC is allowed exaggeration for effect to make a point, but Michelle Obama is not?
 
Sounded a little more like a wife's personal lament than a calculated political prevarication. When statements like "I never get any sleep" become a call for action against liars, maybe we need a break from the political mainextremism.

I doubt we will see a press release saying something like "not intended to be a factual statement" though, it takes a real idiot to do that.

I never take a day off either. :D
 
I suspect that the OP doesn't actually know what it is like to be in a position of authority, such as a business owner or senior manager. Yes, they all have time off, but I doubt you'll find many who actually switch off during that time or are unreachable by their staff.

Methinks the OP's insecurities are showing....... again.

I am in a position of some responsibility, but I ain't the President of the most important country on Earth. I can honestly say that there are fewer than 10 days a year when I don't conduct some work related activity, even though I get about 140 days "off" each year.

I suspect that the President hasn't had a single day during this term where he didn't spend at least several hours "working". The criticism of M. Obama's statements is assinine.

This.

I tend to move in circles that do a variation on what I do - middle management. And since the advent of email, no one I know actually takes a full day off - EVER. Oh, wait - December '09. I was unconscious for over a day and in the ICU for another two. So I was forced to be incommunicado for 72 hours. (As my posting here can attest, though, as soon as I got to my hospital room, I was posting to friends - and that was AFTER I had done my work catchup.)

And, like you, Sarge. I'm decidedly NOT the POTUS.

BAC: Worst trawling ever. More of a non-story than any of your non-stories to date.
