 Oh come on now...  The President is never on
vacuation!  His response to the mess in New Orleans was
high on his list of priorities.  He took the three days
he needed to study important and complex papers that
the Army sent him requesting permission to go in,  and
HE SIGNED THEM DUDE!  Does that sound like he wasn't
working on it?
