Why has Bush been on vacation more than any other president?

Question

Why. He doesn't deserve the vacation time. It must be tough being a moron!!

Answer 1

Why is the most protested person in human history, even more than Hitler? Why did he graduate in the bottom 2% of Yale's history? Why does he like invaiding countries so much? WHy does he hate black people? These are all questions we will never know the answers too....

Answer 2

I
Bush may turn off a lot of the liberal-minded and Democrat-leaning folks in America but no one can say he has not been a real working President. It sounds like he is taking "vacations' but most of those were working vacations.

His predecessor talked about a lot of things that he as going to do but he did nothing about them e.g his talk about how he was going to find and punish all of the terrorist acts that took place during his administration.( He talked, strutted and threatened then did nothing)

Most of what a President has accomplished doesn't come into fruition until four to ten years after he leaves office. The tasks are so large, in materials, people involved and energy, that it takes years for them to bloom. Wait until everything about his administration has been studied and compared with results before you criticize.

At this point in time, the faults and accomplishments of Clinton should begin to surface. Look for them, evaluate them and relate them to either the mess we are in or to our glory.

CHAD T says...
At least he hasnt taken airforce one to get $200.00 haircut in Beverly Hills on the taxpayers dime.

But hey...CHAD'S A-OK WITH...

The White House efforts have been ambitious and costly. For the prime-time television address that Mr. Bush delivered to the nation on the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, the White House rented three barges of giant Musco lights, the kind used to illuminate sports stadiums and rock concerts, sent them across New York Harbor, tethered them in the water around the base of the Statue of Liberty and then blasted them upward to illuminate all 305 feet of America's symbol of freedom. It was the ultimate patriotic backdrop for Mr. Bush, who spoke from Ellis Island.

He's a physical coward. Ellis Island was ringed with major amounts of heavy-duty security, at no small cost. Bush's public appearances tend to involve shutting down and securing everything for a mile or so in all directions. This includes peaceable citizens going about their daily business. They can agree to be part of the rally, or they can choose house arrest for the better part of the day, but they can't come and go in any normal fashion. They also aren't allowed to put any kind of opinionated signs (no matter how mildly the opinions are expressed) on their parked cars or front lawns, which is clearly a violation of the First Amendment but so far hasn't gone to court in any effective way.

Answer 4

Whether you love or hate Bush think about it...he has a 24/7 job...I think I'd take vacations too! Take a gander at all the before and after pics of our recent presidents. They all look like they aged about 25 years during their tenures in the White House. Maybe as annoying as it is to taxpayers Bush has the right idea...too bad we all can't take those vacations though...

Answer 5

Its part of his brilliant economic package, which he speculates will revive this floundering economy. The logic of it goes like this. By traveling to exotic locations, and to his Crawford ranch to vacation frequently, he believes he can single handedly contribute enough money to the leisure and travel industry to revitalize the entire economy. It’s actually quite brilliant from a 5 year olds perspective.

Secondly, by vacationing so much he is showing the terrorists that he isn’t worried about their increasing strategic advances in Iraq, Lebanon, and basically everywhere in the world. After all the terrorists have never been able to bomb Crawford, which goes to show you that his Department of Homeland Security and his terror alerts are highly effective. In fact if you ask any of the redneck inbreeders that live in the surrounding areas of Crawford, Texas, they will tell you that the lack of terrorist attacks on Bush’s ranch are a testament to the stellar job he is doing.

Thirdly, George Bush’s resolve to clear all the brush around his ranch disproves the theory about deforestation and global warming. After all, even though Bush has cleared so much vegetation around his ranch, he swears the temperature around his ranch has not risen 1 degree. If you ever walk into his air-conditioned living room at his ranch you will soon realize that it is in fact quite temperate.

In short, what looks like vacation is merely Bush working doggedly, around the clock, to preserve freedom, strengthen our economy, and champion the environment.

Answer 7

Why do you let someone you obviously seem to dislike push your buttons so much? You've posted lots of questions about him on here. I usually try not to let people I hate have so much control over me.

Answer 8

He gets a lot of headaches. He also feels more at home talking to the animals. Or talking to Texans, whatever.

Answer 9

Didn't you know that he is building an underground shelter for him and his family underneath his ranch in TX, so he can stay alive while these crazy Islamist bomb us all?

Answer 10

At least he hasnt taken airforce one to get $200.00 haircut in Beverly Hills on the taxpayers dime.
