Obama is said to be disappointed with his vacation-rich job

While not specific to foreign policy, there is a mounting whispering campaign in Washington about the current President's disenchantment with the job he currently holds. "You hear it a lot from White House staff," says a Democrat lobbyist in the financial services sector, who worked on the Obama transition team. "The President is tired of dealing or bored with all the B.S., or that things haven't broken the way he wanted and it's not shaping up to be the job that he thought it was going to be. The way some of them talk they make the President sound like a recent college graduate unhappy with his first job stuck in the mailroom."
