This is a difficult question to answer, since part of a president's job is being away from the office. While presidents certainly hold cabinet meetings, greet official visitors, and have press conferences at the White House, their duties often take them out of Washington DC. Presidents attend meetings in a number of cities, give speeches, hold rallies, make appearances on certain TV or radio shows, go to conferences, and represent the US at international economic forums. Barack Obama is no exception. But if you are asking how many vacation days he took in his first term, by most accounts it was between 84 and 90 days; this is fewer days than some modern presidents took, and slightly more than several others, but it is not an unusual amount.
I don't think that Obama would take away recess, don't you know he has kids, he would be taking it away from his own kids too.
yes, Barack Obama once thought about taking away weekend's. Why couldn't the president take away summer!?
It will stop another Columbine! Sorry, taking guns away from law abiding citizens will not stop gun crime.
Unfortunately, there is a myth that has been spread by the National Rifle Association and by conservative talk show hosts that President Obama wants to take everyone's guns away. He does not, and has said no such thing, but the fear that he is soon going to, or that he has some secret plan to do so, has spurred increased gun sales.
An awayday is a business event, typically taking the form of an internal meeting which takes place away from the office.
No, this is another internet myth. The president has never said any such thing, nor has he even suggested it.
Since the election has not yet been completed it is unclear since we are over 6 months away from November.
Obama is a democrat and usually stays away from the topic of war.
No Obama won't take silly bandz away however they are banned from some schools

Royal Mail have typically come under fire the last few years especially since their split away from the Post Office. Despite TNT taking some business away from Royal Mail they maintain a loyal fan base and their tracking service is reliable and reasonably priced.
Contrary to internet myths, he has not taken an excessive amount of vacation days, especially compared to his predecessor. So far, in late 2012, at the end of his first four-year term, he has used about eighty vacation days total; he has also spent some time at Camp David, although it is difficult to measure that time because it's not that far away, and he does not always spend an entire day there.
