![]() George W. Bush was criticized for spending nearly 500 days at his ranch in Crawford, Texas, during his two terms in office. He was there in August 2001 when he received a CIA briefing paper warning of al-Qaida's intentions to strike the United States — about a month before the Sept. 11 attacks would occur. In 2005, he remained on vacation after Hurricane Katrina swamped New Orleans and devastated the Gulf Coast. His presidency suffered from his response to the storm and his decision to not immediately return to Washington. What's that work out to, 1 1/3 years out of 8 on vacation...something like that...

![]() The only thing I'd say regarding this "vacation" thing is that Bush almost solely went on vacation to his home in Texas whilst Obama tends to galavant to far away lands. That being said, it's truly a stupid argument as any man with relatively small children should be able to go on a vacation here and there.
