I'd be curious as to what the normal rate of absenteeism is in
Washington, particularly for those running for the Presidency. His
behavior in this regard only marks him as a politician in my book, and
doesn't rule him out as a viable candidate for the presidency.


I see you're setting the bar pretty high there for electing our next
president...leader of the free world. With that attitude it is no wonder we
are getting what we deserve in politicians.


As would I, but I hope you'll hold Bush to the same standard regarding
his vacation time.


You keep saying it is vacation, but to anyone with an objective viewpoint,
it is not. Why do you keep calling it vacation? It just isn't.
