While Nero fiddled
As I write, 26 American soldiers have lost their lives in Iraq since President Bush began his August vacation.

The President has been busy during his vacation. He's traveled to several fund-raising events, for example, and played a lot of golf. However, he has yet to attend a single funeral or speak to even one widow or orphan or mother of our dead soldiers.
