Obama’s Vacation on Martha’s Vineyard … Will Fecal Coliform Bacteria Prevent the First Family from Swimming

Rather metaphoric, isn’t it?

The US economy is in the tank, job reports are terrible, unemployment is near 10%, Iran has just gone nuclear, US debt is at $13,310,379,000,000.00, mortgage foreclosures continue, home prices expected to fall further and so on and so on and so on, yet President Barack Hussein Obama finds time to take yet another vacation.

On Barack Obama’s 6th vacation of the year, this time to Martha’s Vineyard … he can go to the golf course, but don’t go swimming in the water. According to reports, portions od the salt-water lagoon fronting the first family’s vacation estate on Martha’s Vineyard were closed down last week due to fecal coliform bacteria,  ICK!!!  

Welcome to Martha’s Vineyard, Mr. President – but don’t go in the water!

President Obama, who took a plunge in the Gulf last week to show Americans it was safe to swim the oil spill-plagued area, arrived on this supposedly pristine island yesterday in the midst of a rash of bacteria-induced beach closings.

Portions of Tisbury Great Pond, the salt-water lagoon fronting the first family’s vacation estate Blue Heron Farm, were closed earlier this week due to high levels of enterococci, an indicator that the water is contaminated with fecal coliform bacteria. Ew

Just to correct the MSM, Obama did not go swimming in the Gulf of Mexico last week, although at least the water was more swimmable than that he has on this weeks vacation.

Will the lack of swimming be used as an excuse for Obama to go on yet another vacation?
