The week of Wednesday April 11 through Tuesday April 17 found the Air Force One planes traveling across the Americas. Here we have VP Biden hitting campaign events in Minneapolis MN, Exeter NH, and Scarsdale NY. Mrs. Obama flew to New York City to appear on The Colbert Report and is now fundraising in Nashville TN and Pittsburgh PA. The President stayed local for 4 days, interviewing on television, and attending only 1 fundraiser. But, he did enjoy a 3 day junket in Cartagena Columbia attending a CEO Summit (hmm, I thought he was a President, not a CEO). As he had mentioned in one of his meetings, the real purpose of this enjoyable trip was to find a new location for a family vacation. But, all kidding aside, this international exposure highlighted the moral collapse in our government team. First, several Secret Service members were found to be arranging prostitute visits, and then Hillary Clinton was pictured drinking and dancing the night away.
Neither of these should be a surprise to the American public, particularly since the President has authorized free distribution of birth control and condoms.
As for Presidential work, Mr. Obama held two daily briefings, met with Senior Advisers twice, and met with Geithner and Panetta.The Obama / Biden team together attended 9 campaign events, and today, the President is honoring race car driver Tony Stewart.
