Yeah, it's pretty amazing that Bush can be briefed daily while in Texas, yet even when at the White House, Clinton couldn't even meet with his DCIA...except on two occassions.

Maybe the reason Clinton couldn't vacation at a domestic retreat was because the poor boy didn't own a home and was on the public dole for most his life. And I'm sure if we never found out about Monica, the media would be telling us about all those late-nights that Clinton put in "working for the American people."

Is there any reason we should pay ANY attention to ANYTHING ABC does other than "the Wives"?

Monday Night football?

so tell me this one Willie the Red, was the Iraq War for OIL????? Inquiring minds want to know (and zot).

As a matter of fact, yes.
Oil is the only strategic interest that we have in the Persian Gulf region.
Saddam Hussein represented a continued, beligerant threat to the stability of that oil supply to the global marketplace.
Any linkage to terrorist activity simply provided further justification for his removal.
If not for the oil, we wouldn't give a rat's patoot whether or not the Iraqi people had a stable, democratic government.

That's the cold, hard truth, Mikey.
The same as it's true that YOU have absolutely no power over the ZOT! button.
So quit pretending that you do. It looks pretty silly to us old timers.

And THAT is going to Sunday!
ABC is pointless, and run by that bastion of common sense, Disney.

It's my understanding the length of time is because the 'West Wing' is being renovated and this time was picked because all the other's are out of town.....ON VACATION!

That and the Washington DC humidity sucks this time of year. Anyone who has the ability to get out of that town during August does.

BTW... welcome to FreeRepublic.

They know he is not on vacation. So yes, this is just an anti-Bush bias.

You know, he goes home EVERY SINGLE NIGHT and actually SLEEPS.

Of course, Clinton never went home for vacation. Because he didn't OWN a home. And he didn't have to, when he got bored he just invited interns into his office.

If a major news organization were unbiased, they would explain that there is not ONE thing that isn't being done because the President is in Crawford.

An unbiased and INTELLIGENT news organization might even run a major story about how modern technology makes it much easier for even the President to be "on-the-job" while not actually in the White House. These comparisons to Eisenhouer are simply silly.

I understand that Jimmy Carter almost never went on vacation. Maybe if he had, he wouldn't have ended up so high-strung that he attacked a "killer bunny rabbit" on a fishing trip.

In another article, Charles Rangel said the country was much better of when Bush was out of Washington. So which is it?

Good.
I'm an America First! conservative and have never pretended to be anything else.
I'm glad it finally sunk into that thick skull of yours.

I have seen this one before on FR, but do we REALLY want Congress in session? :)

Willie Green considers himself an 'old-timer' as though that makes him the voice of wisdom. I have no doubt this guy opposed free-trade as well. Isolationism, protectionism, and these guys call themselves conservatives. If that's conservativism, I'm glad I'm a neoconservative then. Good riddence to the Pat Buchanon's and David Dukes who used to think the GOP was a home for them.

I have no doubt that Willie is a former David Duke fan.

He probably ALSO thinks that the Iraq War is for Israel.

I just wonder when he and Cindy Sheehan have their date set up.

The last I heard, that bimbo thought the war was all about Israel.
So you can have her, she's more your type.
