Following up on Michael's post below, this one line from Reuters sums it all up:
"The comments by the number two man of al Qaeda make it clear Iraq is a part of this war on terror, and we're at war," he told reporters at his Texas ranch.We're at war, he's on vacation for five weeks. We're at war, he's setting records for the longest Presidential vacation.
And you will recall, it was during a similarly long vacation in 2001, that he was handed a memo that read "Bin Laden Determined to Strike In U.S." and did nothing.
