They are OBSESSED with Bush being in Texas; they act like he was completely out of context.

It's not as if ANYONE ELSE was even in DC the entire month of August either. Everyone goes on vacation then.

And the President is never really away from the job. The job goes wherever he goes.

Roemer knows that, but it's a good chance for him to get another slur in.

Exactly. There is alway some sitting in the Situation Room with an OPEN PHONE to him when he's gone. Always.

Exactly. Anyone who knows about Presidential operations understands that the President really never goes on vacation. The White House moves with him including all of the communications etc. He can operate anywhere in the world whether he is traveling to a foreign country or at his ranch in Crawford, Texas. He gets his daily briefings including from the CIA.

I agree with others here who wonder why no one asks Tenet how often he personally briefed Clinton. I think Woolsey met with him once or twice.
