So Hilary is going on vacation to recuperate after her campaign for the nomination.
So she needs time off from her job while trying to get a better job?
Imagine if you tried this same thing.
She may well be tired, but no one made her do what she did. She has an obligation to do her duties as a senator.
All politicians are lame.

What being president used to mean
This is an excerpt from this article:
Instead of stoking public demands for action, the chief magistrate was expected to resist “the transient impulses of the people” and use his veto to keep Congress within its constitutional bounds. That role didn’t require much speechifying. Early presidents rarely spoke directly to the public; from George Washington through Andrew Jackson, they averaged little more than three speeches per year, with those mostly confined to ceremonial addresses. In his first year in office, by comparison, President Clinton delivered 600.

Screwing The Every-Man
I am all for ex-presidents getting benefits once they leave office. But this article shows that it's out of control. Why wouldn't these benefits work similar to unemployment benefits for the average joe, if you need them and meet the correct qualifications you get it, if you don't need them you don't get them.
Read all about it. Get pissed off.
