Bush AWOL (Again)
I’d been meaning to mention that WaPo article everyone else has been linking to, the one that lists the record amounts of vacation time Bush has been awarding himself as president. Significantly, he sticks to his vacation schedule even during presidential-attention-worthy events like that pre-9/11 spike in domestic terrorism warnings, and the current spontaneous combustion of his “plan” for achieving a stable, democratic Iraq.
But reader Alex Mauldin has done a better write-up than I would have done, complete with comparisons to the vacation-taking habits of other recent presidents: Bush’s spring break.

If I knew you were going to link to the article, I would have held off on the next post I made!
You can adjust the link to:

… and it should take readers right there.
Thanks for the compliment, though!

And where was Kerry during his 8 years on the Intelligence committee? Seems he missed 76% of the meetings and all of the private meetings…
