This is silly.
I always thought it was stupid when people on the left criticized Bush for being on vacation for 27% of his working days, and I think this is stupid too.
Would Obama really have been able to craft the perfect health care bill in the time it took to tape Letterman?
Would Bush really have been able to fix Iraq if only he hadn't spent all that time down on the ranch clearing brush?
Being president is basically just a public relations job with a few actual decisions sprinkled in every once in awhile....regardless of who is in the office. The staff and the rest of the administration do the work and the president basically goes out there and tries to win them four more years of doing it. People might wish it wasn't like that....but that is the reality.
