(11,785 posts)1. Even when presidents go on vacations, it's not 100% vacation time.
It can't be, unless you're someone like Bush, who's merely 100% vacant.

(translation - in extended conference with his pals Jim Beam and Jack Daniel) for what seemed like half of his pretzeldency. No one seemed to care much about his sojourns at the Crawford Pig Farm.

both the cost of and the duration of the vacations. They have a bit of a bias against the President I think.
