Nothing Going on at Work. It's Vacation Time!!

That's what Bush thinks apparently. Nothing going on in the world. No unfinished business. Nothing he really needs to be doing. Might as well take a 10 day vacation. Good a time as any really.
For me personally, I can't and haven't been able to take vacation because the manning where I work (In Cheyenne Mountain AFS, the NORAD facility) is at minimum. Four years ago we had 6 people per shift. We currently have 3 people per shift. That's a total of 9 people manning a 24 hour military facility that monitors message traffic and circuits around the world. Uhhhh...yeah that's smart. Why do we only have 3 people? Because of funding. Our government contract was recently cut by FIFTY percent. Manning cuts throughout the facilities that are covered under the contract have been drastic. People are in constant fear of losing their jobs. Why was all this funding cut? It was already agreed that a certain amount of funding would be provided through 2012. Then the government can just turn around and through some loophole decide to cut it by 50 percent? Holy shit! Again, why was it cut? To divert more money to taking care of children in Iraq. It's not the job of the U.S. to go around the world liberating countries. Bush seems to think it is. So while everyone here working for the goddamned MILITARY IN THE UNITED STATES is in fear of their jobs BECAUSE OF HIM, he is taking a relaxing VACATION. Get this motherfucker out of office already.
