That's nothing! As soon as the O said that the administration would not rest until the case was solved returned to body surfing and golfing!

Acacio,

We'll have a chance to "fire him" in 2012. Until that time, I do not see anything that gives us cause to impeach/remove the man, as ridiculous as I think many of his policies are.

It could be said that the U.S. government can run by remote control. On the day that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab attempted to blow up a Northwest airline flight headed for Detroit, several key government players were on holiday and didn't immediately return to their posts in Washington, D.C.

President Obama was on vacation in Hawaii, golfing and enjoying time with his family. He returned to the White House on Jan. 4.

A source told CBS News that Leon Panetta, director of the CIA, was on holiday in Monterey, Calif. when Abdulmutallab was apprehended, and didn't return to CIA headquarters in Langley, Va. until the weekend following Jan. 1.
