Obama to Leave Hawaiian Vacation Early to Return to Work on Fiscal Deal.
President Obama was planning to cut his Christmas vacation short and return to Washington to make a last-ditch push for a compromise on a tax and spending dispute with Congress that remains stubbornly unresolved.
A White House official said on Tuesday that the president could depart as early as Wednesday. Meanwhile, both chambers of Congress will come back from their holiday hiatus on Thursday and return to work. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/26/us/politics/obama-returning-to-washington-to-seek-fiscal-deal.html?hp&_r=0 Darn! Love to think of him enjoying Hawaii.
