Does he ever work?

[zappaman]

Okay, I read an article yesterday about how daddy's boy isn't spending a lot of time in the white house due to all the campaigning. We all know about the entire month he took off after only 7 months in office. But, I'm curious as to how many days chimpy has actually spent at the white house since he stole office.
Is there any way to look this up? Maybe past schedules are posted somewhere?
It just seems like he is NEVER at the white house....

1. Be Thankful

You never know what kind of havoc he could wreak if he did work full time.

2. I don't want him working any harder

He has been on vacation most of the time. But when you consider the harm he has done, be glad that he has not considered it to be a full time job. Has anyone noticed That when Putin does his own Homeland Security act in response to Terrorists Bu$HCO and the press jump all over it? IT is the HYPOCRISY STUPID.

3. See if Dana Milbank at The Washington Post has something on this.

I seem to recall that someone did a tally of how much vacation time Bush has taken in his presidency and how much time he's spent away from D.C. and/or Camp David. It's quite a lot.

NPR today actually observed that Bush was going to be in D.C. today, as though it were some major news item. He's been in swing states, for the most part, and hot-footed it out of NYC to Pennsylvania after he did his convention speech. I think he hates New York nearly as much as he hates D.C.

4. I remember the vacation time article...

...but I'm talking about ALL the time he has spent away from the white house. Like being in FL on 9/11 for a photo op. That can't be done in DC? Everytime you see a picture of the guy, he's addressing some group somewhere. Not just now, but ever since he weaseled his way into office. You would think that people would realize he's an empty suit.

5. Not that I really want him "working" either

But the Republicans get such a bang out of how Kerry should resign from the Senate or something, I think it's fair to ask just what Stupidhead is doing to earn the $400,000 he's being paid by the U.S. taxpayer.

Especially considering that he's supposed to be the Commander in Chief during wartime, and our soldiers are dying and killing by the score over in Eye-rack. What are you doing about it, George?

6. His Sense of Entitlement is Stunning

He is so conditioned to shirk any responsibility, to get whatever position Poppy can arrange for him, he has no clue how to be a real human being. He actually thinks Jeebus Rice is holding him aloft; instead of realizing he has had it so easy because of the accident ( I'll say) of birth.

That's why he sailed on into Iraq to avenge Diddy. He thought Diddy would make it ALL BETTER and it would be as easy to win over the Iraqis as it was to bullshit everyone else, as it was to avoid service in Viet Nam.

Your Savior is not called Jeebus, ShrubbyPants. IT'S CALLED ORGANIZED CRIME!

7. Such is the topic of Plaid Adder's article on the home page.

In it he lists the days worked vs vacation time.
