Why President George W. Bush Never Left The White House Until The Day After Christmas Well, the Obamas are off once again on their lavish annual trip to Hawaii. Were sure that they will spare no expense as it pertains to American tax dollars. In stark contrast, White House journalist has just revealed that former President George W. Bush never left Washington D.C. for his Christmas vacation until the day after Christmas. The decision was a strategic one made by George and Laura. I still remember what she said, Curl wrote. So all of us can be with our families on Christmas. The us she is referring to is the hundreds and hundreds of service agents, staff, and police officers, who have families and lives and vacations of their own. The move was incredibly classy, and you can bet that the Obamas never even thought of it. This president would never delay his trip to his island getaway, Curl wrote. Hes off every year well before Christmas. Hundreds and hundreds head off with him, leaving family behind. No Christmas at home. Instead, the Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort. Nice, but not exactly home. What do you think? Do we need a real leader in the White House once again? Someone who represents American values?
