Did either own a resort? Did Clinto have time to vacation with Whitewater, ethics probes, and um, cigars? You mean the media didn’t document and bastardize their every move? Go figure.

I’m having trouble trying to understand your point here. Was there are reason to not include Obama on your list? I mean he did declare 13 National Emergencies with 11 still active. We also know how he liked to “get away.”

Just forgot about Obama, like I'm sure we'd all like to (zero sarcasm).

It just seems to me that if a problem is serious enough as to merit a national emergency declaration, you'd probably want to stay at work over the weekend rather than playing golf with your buddies. How serious of an emergency does it take to get a sitting President to cancel his tee time?
