Well, the dems had to do something to hog the news during the president's vacation and I guess Max Cleland told them that spending last August in the ditch with the media was enough for him...this is the best they can do.
Who will they trot out the next three summers and how soon will they demand a protest park (with comfort stations, WiFi and a Starbucks) be erected at the ranch gate?
Oh, they didn't really need to hog the attention--Jay Leno is doing a fine job of portraying the President as a slacker for taking a "vacation." (The President is working harder at his "vacation" than many people do at their regular jobs!)
