HONOLULU, Hawaii — It’s evolved into one of the riskiest pursuits in modern politics: vacation.

The ONLY sensible paragraph in the entire piece ... “I am going to go get some shave ice,” Obama said. “I am going to go bodysurfing at an undisclosed location. I am going to see my Tutu, my grandma. And I am going to watch my girls play on the beach, and maybe once in awhile I will go in the water. But mostly I am going to sit there and watch them.”
