"I am the vacation President"
Bush flew to Camp David after spending a day in Florida campaigning and fundraising. His previous stop was to the family "ranch" at Kennebunkport, Maine...

Regardless of politics, does no one question his work ethic or lack thereof?

1. I like that line!
The Repugs always claim those aren't real vacations--he's really working. Doing God's work 24/7. You believe them don't you????

3. WOW! DON'T YOU NEED A LOT OF SCRATCH TO HAVE A RANCH IN MAINE?
I don't know of any Maine ranchers. Does Bush actually ride around and rope lobsters and stuff up there?

:dunce:

P.S. That Plastic-turkey name is hilarious. I just made a post referring to the plastic turkey in another thread!

5. That's a great line!
Kerry needs to pound * on this one. If the general public knew this they would be ticked! Most of us lucky enough to have jobs in *'s economy can't afford to take a vacation!

6. he really should
kerry should simply say, 'when i am elected i won't spend 40% of my time on vacation, and i won't take vacations in the middle of a crisis' as bush did 2 weeks ago.

8. Lets ask Kerry right now if he will work if he gets to be President.
Father Bush liked to vacation also.
