-- -- there -- -- maybe spent Thanksgiving together -- broader problem.

The didn't invite me to his house.

A bit but -- want to rely orders trying to -- -- -- Colluded over so that he was mad at me for something on I don't think -- -- anymore.

I'm going to go to made up that's great audit everything wrong I I did during thing a man just.

Don't don't don't don't don't be defensive -- Reseller journal Darrel or you this morning outside the home Merrill and other alternative -- literally or you don't like it memorable wire -- White House.

Would prevent.

What should the chief White House correspondent for fox.

I -- you don't have you don't have to -- -- sort Obama.

And Sullivan president just back -- ten day Asian -- I guess that wasn't augmentation but.

-- -- Well he was trying to push American jobs side in Asia trying to make a point that you can't just grow -- you know on our.

-- Turkey gonna go overseas -- promote American exports and that something he promised to do double US exports in the first term.

-- should be making progress on the but I think looked at you know he's trying to show that he's pushing on all fronts from trade overseas to the payroll tax cut extension.

On Capitol Hill and really for the first time missile double bill -- -- it looks like.

And he's gonna get a victory at all on the payroll tax extension because you -- have about half of the senate Republicans saying they're on board with extending this -- just.

Figuring out how to pay -- but I think he wanted to get a victory here.

-- is being criticized by everybody.

Toward taken seventeen days -- the -- -- you get to gold bought their current level -- You know I've been the last.

Three years or so and it's always it seems like a lot of fun at first but then when some elect underwear bomber decides to -- up Christmas morning.

You end up working around the clock and it turns out not really -- the occasion either for the president or -- depressed or.

Actually this Christmas I'm -- -- it -- -- family and not not actually work.

Won't lose and we will go to -- -- probably about the think that was -- ago great got.

Well I'm sure there's -- paradigm of them in a -- words.

If it closes.

You know what I I checked it yourself from time to time I mean I mean that you were 365 -- -- I don't know what I -- actually -- it seems like you do that you talked.

Remember.

All the bureau.

I'm sorry I took some time off to treat my cancer.

Lyric -- -- you know -- actually -- -- -- gonna -- -- -- It's not.

Anyway the -- is being criticized of his trip but.

I mean it didn't stop been frozen when -- is there are several.

Look -- couple -- think about that everybody's mr.

number climate they may have more dog.

But I think the reports -- seventeen days and the go to Hawaii but if you look at what happened the last couple years.

They glad -- there was a fight over the bush tax cut a year before there was a fight over health -- and so they may have felt quite marked off to retreat reach him to go with and he ended up.

-- spending more time in DC.

And in the -- going much later and and so he may not go percent in -- fourteen legal and I think the bottom line is he's gonna get criticism.

For taking time law.

Around the holidays because people -- -- -- you know that recovery is still struggling along.

Present state vacation they cover President Bush.

-- gonna protect saudis go to Camp David a lot.

You know I mean look you can look at the logical as the bottom line is that I was mentioning about underwear bomber healthier look Christmas morning.

The presidency follows you wherever you -- secure president you're never really -- You're gonna have to jump into something happened -- something happens.

Homeland Security front here at home something's going on the economy so what he's gonna face criticism because -- -- and have that at this this is hardball.

But at the same time I think people have to go -- the context of the presidency follows you were -- As -- that that's a fair analysis a more than fair.

Analysis.

Found out people like my stupid agent after her -- and I see him who aggregates are -- every time I mentioned flocks and it.

-- -- a little dwarf those listening to -- -- the goes about a fair analysis.

And an observation about the president's vacation unlike what somebody like.

-- don't predict -- -- sort of clear.

I also appreciate that the -- setting me up for -- -- -- and look back.

I don't Governor -- though.

All of was probably right about what tailored -- and therefore when the president.

All of fassel on out of debt some committed to ensure that.

Are here I'm not -- for your opinion.

Well look -- could decide that.

You on the payroll tax cut -- was talked about president decided to come out yesterday and jumping and in weigh in.

But even though the compromise is not there yet they're still working it out -- not a done deal yet and so that TJ.

What about a couple weeks ago when when Governor Christie was criticized the president didn't mention it but there criticism without there president didn't get involved in the super committee at the end there.

And then.

Democrat Dick Durbin and other civil aspect of the Republicans were done them in private that the president got heavily involved it was in this fight -- deal would blow the whole thing also the White -- confused at the justification for the president not being heavily involved -- -- all.

What -- sort out of -- payroll tax -- For the president on the verge of victory yesterday he weighed in before the couple might even -- why would -- be doing now is getting old is got a Republican -- on this one.

Other Republicans are now split on the table tax cut -- -- last Thursday night -- how to -- senate Republicans voted for some kind of payroll tax get to about -- the other half.

Voted against one -- -- split -- a political opportunity.
