1. Would you take your summer vacation in Chicago?
No offense to Chicago, but it's not exactly a summer vacation mecca.

15. No place for the Pres. It is SO crowded it'd be a security nightmare.
It is lovely and clean and exciting. But not relaxing and secure if you're the potus and family.

2. Beautiful beaches and cool ocean breezes, or midwestern city in August...
Really, you have to ask this?

11. It may surprise you to know that Chicago ...
... has beautiful beaches too. They are not as private, certainly, but Lake Michigan has been quite lovely this summer.

12. You know, I've just driven through, never stopped to see Lake Michigan there.
I'm not running down Chicago, I'll bet it's really nice. It's just that I've spent many Augusts in the midwest, LOL. Hazy Hot and Humid.

8. Family Value Fundies

Should be applauding Obama for being such a strong family man---spending time and relaxing with his wife and kids.

14. Why? His family is with him. He's taking them to the beach.
He's not a college kid going home for the summer. He has 11 fucking days to be with his family in a fairly controlled, nice environment.
