president has officially spent 365 days — a full year — at Camp David
It was a familiar sight today as President Bush headed to Marine One for the 30 minute flight to Camp David. The numbers reflect just how much he likes the place.

Our CBS News tally shows that today marks his 116th visit to the presidential retreat.

It also brings his total time there to 365 days. That's one year.

But Mr. Bush complained to me last month about my numbers. He thinks it's unfair to count a partial day as a full one. He only arrived at Camp David today before noon, but it counts as a day in my records.

So let's be fair and say he's been there all – or part – of 365 days.

5. I'd personally stay there as much as possible
and get out of the heat of DC. He's hiding, I believe.

7. How does it compare to other presidents?
don't you think you need to know that to determine if it is important or not?

12. I wasn't aware that it was presented as a "big deal"
however, I like to keep up with such things.

14. if the wheels of fortune were to ever turn ...
would any of these bushes know how to wash their own clothes, cook their own food, shop for their own grocery, clean their own toilets?

i wonder if, like his brother who admitted to wanting a clean towel at the florida governor's mansion any time of day or night he wanted to, (see where some of our money goes?) if .. bush the OCCUPATION pRESIDENT also has a penchant or an obsession with/for towels at the white house or at camp david.

15. remember the movie, Trading Places
the two rich, evil brothers sacrificed Eddie Murphy and Dan Ackroyd to an experiment, only to end up broke and penniless.

I envision that happening to them.

One can only hope.

18. And the days he DOES work are only about 4 hours long
I don't mind a man being a lazy piece of shit, but such a man should play celebrity golf or be one of those old guys who professionally dates. He shouldn't be in charge of billions of dollars or lives.
