Longest presidential retreat in at least 36 years

Well, I am talking about Mr.Bush again! Our beloved president made history again. He has done so much for the nation that he thought he deserved a 5 week vacation (yes a little less than 1-1/2 months and not to mention that this is his 49th trip to the ranch!!!) and he didn't miss out the opportunity. I don't know of any employer in U.S that gives its hard working employees 5 weeks a year vacation. I get a pitiful 3 weeks which is nothing IMO.

Here is the more important piece of information. Last time he took a month's vacation, we had 9/11 and this time it was Katrina!

One thing that I still could not understand is that what about those frequent trips to Camp David and the ranches? Do they count as vacation too or are they considered sort of telecommuting like we know in the tech industry? I know he is the dumbest president but he also proved that he is a slacker as well.

Here is the WashingtonPost.com article and on the funnier side, the coverage from TheOnion.com
