OH? Did Bush fly to Hawaii every year for his vacation? If you are going to talk about his going to his ranch in Texas, then you might want to check to see how many times he did business there, much like going to Camp David, which does not seem to be utilized anymore. The president can take his vacation anywhere he wishes, to an African safari if he wishes. One of the many perks. As far as I am concerned, Jan 20th can not get here fast enough. Then Obama can take his permanent vacation.
