I see that the President agreed to postpone his important speech on the economy so that it wouldn't conflict with the Republican presidential candidates' debate. How did he expect to be in two places at once?

But not so important that he would have had to postpone his vacation for it . . . .

Were he and his staff so stunningly incompetent that they didn't realize there would be a conflict?

Actually, I thought it made the Republicans look stronger. Boehner's no-nonsense refusal of the President's invitation was exactly the correct response. Proving again Obama's lack of experience.

His no-nonsense refusal? His staff initially agreed to the date, then he did an about face and said that the 7th was no good because they wouldn't have time to do a security sweep of the House chamber. Once again showing Boehner's inability to give a straight answer.

Is Obama taking too much vacation time? Here's what factcheck.org says:
Quote: President Obama has spent all or part of 26 days "on vacation" during his first year as president, according to CBS News White House Correspondent Mark Knoller.
