The French not involved in the tourist industry take the whole month of August off. How will the President become more "Euro" if he doesn't learn first hand from their customs.;)

FOUR WEEKS TOGETHER...GET REAL! Demolibs? You can work as much as you want. I have nothing against more time off, but this is ridiculous. The workers should get more time yes, but BUSH? A MONTH? His brain must be overtaxed... naaaaaaaah....doesn't have one. For Immediate Release: Executive Order Grants 5 Months Vacation to Every American Bush shocked to learn that most Americans work all year long Crawford, Texas -- Before getting down to the business of enjoying his month-long vacation President Bush has announced a new Executive Order granting 5 months vacation per year for all legally employed Americans. The order also include a provision requiring the employers provide work site gyms and midday workout breaks for all workers. Speaking to reporters, Bush explained how he came to make the decision: "When Vice President Cheney appraised me on the working habits of Americans, I said 'Whoa there! These people are working ALL YEAR LONG??? That's crazy!' It is crazy, and now I'm bringing a stop to it." In his first six months in the White House the President has already taken four weeks vacation and believes the time off was essential to his excellent job performance so far. After his August vacation, the President plans to take another three weeks in Maine to enjoy the autumn leaves, and a long break from Thanksgiving to New Years in Miami with his brother Jeb. "The Presidency is definitely the toughest job I've ever had. The experience has forced me to realize that most Americans must be extremely over worked. Personally, I don't know why America hasn't done this a long time ago."
