Its far left CBS so in their rush to apologize for "the chosen one" they of course ignored the fact that Bushs time in Texas was mostly spent working

You cant expect any more than that from such far left media sources though

Oh, is that what its all about? again? lmao. Obamas mind is permanently on vacation and his mouth is working overtime. (with due credit to Mose Allison of course)

In fact the entire lyric is perfect for our laggard in chief:

You sittin here and yakkin right in my face
You comin' on exactly like you own the place
You know if silence was golden
You couldn't raise a dime
Because your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime

You quotin' figures and droppin' names
You tellin' stories and playing games
You're overlaughin' when things ain't funny
You tryin' to sound like the big money
You know if talk was criminal
You'd lead a life of crime
Because your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime


You know that life is short
Talk is cheap
Don't be makin' promises that you can't keep
You don't like this little song I'm singin'
Just grin and bear it
All I can say is if the shoe fits wear it
If you must keep talkin
Please try to make it rhyme
Because your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime

Well the only reason he owned a ranch was so he could look more like Regean.  Bush did not purchase the ranch until 6 months before he announced he was running for Presiden.

Gee Bush spends 225 days on vacation and the right still can't see it anything wrong with it, but 70 days and Geessshhhh that is to much time to take off

Himself is a high level exec. When he first started his job he got 4 weeks vacation his first year. 20 days. His second through fifth he received 6 weeks .. 30 days per year. Years after through 10, he got 8 weeks or 40 days a year. In 8 years he received a total of 220 days of vacation. Pretty equal to Bush and, like Bush, he often worked a lot of those days. Obama has been in office for 2.5 years or so so to me reasonable vacation days at an exec level would be somewhere around 60 - 70 days. Like Bush, Obama is on call 24/7 and I'm pretty sure that the people who need to have instant access to him for whatever reason can do so.

If people think that's too much vacation time, then the thing to do is to call your congressman and let them know. While you're on that phone call.. ask your Congressman how many vacation days he scheduled for himself during his first year.

ETA: Holy crap.. I didn't realize that Bush took 225 days during the same time frame that Obama has taken 70. Never mind about what I said about it being comparable to Himself.

Please provide something other than your highly questionable word in proving what Bush might have done or not dome while on his ranch.

How much vacation time have your GOP candidates taken in the last 2.5 years? Less than 70 days?

I'd like to see the evidence that shows their vacation time has been LESS than 1/4th of Mr. Obama. Since Mr. Obama's vacation time has been 1/4th of Mr. Bush's by this time in both administrations. If it's more than Mr. Obama's than you cant vote for any of them.

I think it was your rush to spin more lies.

It was simply a comparison of the same time frame.  There was nothing ill of Bush in the article.

Of course the video of Bush clearing brush at the ranch was related to working for the country how?

Oh god that made me laugh.

Being President is stressful... I cant imagine a job with more stress... other than maybe a bomb squad..

Obama has taken 70 days... ok
Bush took 225.... ok

They are never "off" work.

What is Hannah's favorite expression?

Jesus christ on a cup cake!!!

(I adore that)

I only bring up vacation time when some conservative is stupid enough to start complaining about the time Obama spends on the golf course.

Agreed.

Of course ... does this mean I can go back and tell all the "libs" who complained about Bush's vacation days to shut up, now?
