Don't you have anything better to do than yap at the
President's ankles like a little, deranged chihuahua ?

Ken, I gotta tell you, if the 200 mil a day figure is remotely close to the
actual cost, I do not consider it "yap(ping) at the President's ankles," and I
do not believe for a second that if this were Bush (or any other Republican)
that you would consider it any less than what it would be, if true - a
disgusting thing.



Good grief.

You got that right,

Don't recalls that it ever came up. Seemed that Bush had the exact
opposite problem (ie not getting around much/running to ground). Where
did he go? At least once to Iraq, maybe Europe (?) but where else? As
I remember it, one of my personal gripes about the man was that he was
even less traveled than I am, and didn't seem interested in the world
much.

I have the same gripe about most politicians. Nixon, Clinton and
Kennedy were the most "worldee" so far IMHO. There is something to be
said for study and preparation over improvisation.
