I’m back from a brief vacation but apparently Bush isn’t, and Andy Borowitz explains: “President George W. Bush said today that he understands and respects the views of those who are calling for him to cut short his summer vacation, but warned that an immediate withdrawal from Crawford, Texas would ‘send a terrible signal to the enemy.’

‘The enemy would like nothing better than to see me cut short my vacation and get back to the White House,’ Mr. Bush told reporters. ‘They hate my freedom.'” (The Huffington Post)
