Oh, c'mon... Why does the media consistently parrot WH spin...?

President George W. Bush faced major security challenges on three fronts on Sunday as he prepared to return to Washington after a 10-day working vacation at his ranch.

gimme a break... this is just a cut and paste right out of a wh press release... bush wouldn't recognize hard work if it bit him in the ass... they're just keeping up appearances... the "work" he could and should have been doing - one, showing a little leadership in the face of a "terrorist" threat and, two, leading the diplomatic effort to bring a cease-fire to lebanon - didn't even figure in his brush-clearing agenda...
