Does * need another vacation?

For Immediate Release
August 31, 2005

Press Gaggle with Scott McClellan
Aboard Air Force One
En Route Andrews Air Force Base, MD

<snip>

Q Would you say the President goes back to Washington well rested?

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, as you all know, this has been, as usual, a fairly busy month. There are a lot of important priorities going on, and we -- here in Crawford, we have the Western White House. I mean, the White House just picks up and moves with the President. And he has kept a pretty busy schedule this month, and he has also remained focused on a number of important priorities for the nation.

Q Does he need a vacation?

MR. McCLELLAN: I think those of you who travel with the President recognize that this is not what you would call a vacation. This is the President's home, he always enjoys coming here. But when you're President, you're President 24/7. And he always enjoys returning to Texas, he always enjoys getting out and traveling around the country and hearing from people out in the heartland, and what's on their minds.

Q Okay, thanks.

<snip>

END 1:24 P.M. EDT

MR. McCLELLAN: Okay, thanks.

2. Yep. There's a "spa" in Leavenworth, Kansas, that'd be perfect for him.
I think a private room for life is just what he needs -- and he can bring 30 or 40 of his closest friends, at taxpayers' expense. :evilgrin:

5. Leavenworth is too good.
Gitmo would be more suitable.

Anyone have the image of the space shuttle taking off, desined for the ISS with prisoners *, Cheney and Rummy aboard?

4. He doesn't need a vacation, he need a job.
I like the rock breaking mentioned above. That's also "hard work" I understand, and he should feel right at home within his element.

...yesterday, Scottie lost control and had to cut it short.

I sure would like to know who the "wiseguy" is, and hope his/her credentials are not revoked.
