Michelle Said to be Considering an Extended Vacation
2013-05-23
[WHITEHOUSEDOSSIER] With scandal swirling about the White House, First Lady Michelle Obama may be considering an extended exit from Washington this summer, fleeing for weeks to the Obamas' traditional summer haven, Martha's Vineyard.

According to the Boston Globe, "Michelle Obama and the children may be on the island for an extended period." But the president would hardly be suffering by comparison. He may come up on weekends and then stay for two weeks at the end of the summer, the Globe reports.

The White House has not commented on the Obamas' vacation plans.

The Obamas are said to be eying a house in Farm Neck on the Vineyard. If they land there, the president will have easy access to the lovely Farm Neck Golf Club and Cafe. Here's the view from the tee on the third hole.

#17   A "neck" in New England is a name for a jut of land into the sea.

I've learned something today; as a member of the High Plains our local coastline quirks are usually named after pancake ingredients ;)

#9  Usually with a women far younger than the man.
Funny. Barry doesn't look a whole lot younger.

I imagine its more seperation from the trial; she has a future in government to cultivate. Besides, the help will work the garden and DC is just blah for such crust. I'll tell ya, if I had a full time job where I could be called in anytime, and I spent all my free time at the golf course, it would not be a trial seperation. Its just as well Madame Deficit travels to Plaisirs de l'ile enchantee while Barry builds his Trianon.

#1  My suggestion- a country that has no extradition treaty w/ the US. And possibly no regular diplomatic relations either.

I understand North Korea is very nice this time of decade....
