Rereading or still reading?



Obama's vacation reading list includes a book he's been reading since last year. Or maybe he simply wants to reread it. Or maybe he never read it but when you spin the truth so frequently, sometimes the wheel never stops moving even when the facts are inconsequential.

Looks like President Obama is one slow reader.

The commander in chief's list of beach books for his Martha's Vineyard vacation includes an environmental best seller that he bragged about reading almost a year ago on the campaign trail.

Obama was so taken with Thomas Friedman's "Hot, Flat and Crowded" that he quoted it at a rally last September in Flint, Mich., and one media outlet described it as the book that was currently on the then-candidate's nightstand.


He's read the 1,000-plus page health care bill, though. Twice. Three times. He takes breaks between golfing and snubbing the media to peruse it sporadically at Martha's Vineyard.
The man is a workaholic.
