12. I didn't know he ordered Boehner's congress to hand it up to him while he was on vacation.

If so, it's about time they started listening to him after all these years, but this vacation has been planned for weeks that we know of.

You may not like the content of the bill, and it's safe to say you may not like the president either, but to say he ran off to hide in his home state during the holidays, just to sign this bill away from WillyT's proud American eyes, is somewhat of a stretch.

To imagine the news outlets have the A Team working overtime on New Years Eve day to cover Obama's vacation is even more of a stretch. Would MSNBC break in during "Lock Up" to show him signing the bill? Maybe Andrea Mitchell wouldn't mind working the holiday and flying to Hawaii to report on a bill that will be discussed in full Monday morning.

Is Wolf Blitzer available this weekend? I haven't seen him, but I bet the entire media is in on the conspiracy to keep the lid on this. They sure aren't doing a very good job though.

Edited to show the picture we weren't supposed to see because Obama ran off to Hawaii to sign the bill away from our prying eyes:
