Ingraham Unleashed: Obama's schedule reveals priorities: Campaigning, fundraising, concerts, and vacations

Posted by Laura Ingraham

On day 4 of the Gulf oil rig leak, President Obama and the First Lady flew to North Carolina for a weekend vacation--full of golf, hiking, and unhealthy food.

As the oil continued to pour the following week, Obama campaigned for Wall Street Reform in Iowa, Missouri, and Illinois, and ended the week by partying at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. That was after he appeared at an elite D.C. fundraiser on day 10 of the spill.

Today--day 36--Obama will appear at a fundraiser in California for Senator Barbara Boxer at the same time a previously-recorded sports interview he did will air during an NBA game.

Next Wednesday, the Obamas will host a Paul McCartney concert live at the White House. Last week they were treated to a live performance by Beyonce in their backyard.

This weekend, Obama will vacation in Chicago--and neglect Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day.

This is what the Obamas don't understand: When you are the First Family, it's not about you.

UPDATE: Obama has scheduled a trip to Louisiana for Friday. However, HotAir's headline captures just how meaningful this is:

Obama schedules awesome oil spill photo op in the gulf for Friday
