Iraq parliament takes a vacation

Iraq's government IS modeled after the U.S. government! This week, with terrorist events in Baghdad at an all time high, the Iraqi Parliament took a cue from President George W. Bush and took a month long vacation. Is it my imagination or does Bush take more vacations than just about anyone in the country? Or is he just on vacation when the country is in crisis?
