Fred Kaplan has a really excellent piece up in Slate on the president’s monthlong August 2001 vacation. Fred even has the temerity to point out that the new story that the president requested the August 6th 2001 is almost certainly false. What is Fred thinking? He’s truly off the reservation. Doesn’t he know the president’s line about not wanting to swat flies? What’s his problem? Does Fred “hate freedom“?
