So what if Bush is incompetient, at least he didn't shoot himself in the foot to get three purple hearts and then come back and and go communist while sweating to the oldies with Jane Fonda, then inventing the internet so he can use free speech to create anti-american webpages that were printed out and used to give John McCain paper cuts in vietnam. All the while he was plotting to marry the ketchup lady to steal all her money in a attempt to drink more and be more liberal than Ted Kennedy so he can get elected and draw a huge salary and never show up to vote except to vote to send our troops overseas with only rusty generic brand swiss army knives and those cartoon bombs with the long string fuses. Oh yeah and if he finds out that the majority of people who elected him don't agree with the way he was voting on a particular issue- He changes the way he votes so the most people are represented, that bastard!

That is pretty funny. There is no way you came up with that on your own.

What vacations has Bush taken? Weekend trips to camp david? President's don't get weekends off? What about the 6 weeks most employees get at that level?

I just haven't noticed any times that bush didn't do his job. Policies get set, press conferences held, hands shaken, bills vetoed, everything a president is supposed to do. Kerry's job as a senator is to vote.

Uhhh, camp david isn't just leisure time. I recall seeing how Bush had meetings with foreign officials there. I wouldn't call keeping up foreign relations vacation time. If that was vacation time, salesmen work 1 day a week at most.

In an odd bit of trivia, Bush has yet to veto a bill.

I'm shocked -shocked- that he's vetoed no bills from a Republican congress.

By resorting to name calling, I guess.

Are you against bush or for him? One minute you are comparing Bush's "excessive" vacations to Kerry missing 2/3 of his senate votes. The next you are posting a link that shows that (ignoring weekends), Bush had just over 6 weeks of "vacation" and that isn't accounting for time he spent working while at camp david or his ranch.

Meanwhile, Kerry gets paid while he is too busy to show up for votes because he is compaigning? Do you think your boss would pay your salary while you didn't show up for work because you were busy looking for another job?
