A Question of Priorities

President Bush has decided to forego his traditional summer vacation of clearing brush on the Crawford ranch and spend it trying to regain some of his previous popularity.
With Republicans nervous about keeping control of Congress and worries about the future of Iraq, Iran and North Korea, White House officials have decided too much is at stake this year for Bush to spend so much time on vacation. He'll spend some time at the ranch, but it will be less than previous summers and interrupted by more time on the road.

Too bad he didn't feel that way in the summer of 2001 after reading the PBD entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack in the United States". Perhaps the last 6 years would have played out significatly different if he had decided that too much was at stake then.

Good thing there are some grownups in the White House. He probably wouldn't have decided that on his own.

Of course, it'll be funny to see if the 150+ day work-year starts to get to him... he might snap, or fall really obviously off the wagon...

There are no grown ups in the White House. Only tall children.
