If I use points for a business trip, can I still deduct the cost from my taxes?

Inspired by the credit card thread...
I realized that with my 3 kids and my wife and I working full time, our vacations basically center around our business trips (my wife actually has her hotels paid for, while mine are just write offs). Can I use points but then still deduct from taxes?

Did you recognize the points as income when they were awarded to you?

Ok cool.
2 questions
1) are you supposed to pay taxes on points (I presume the answer is yes)
2) do most people actually do this? (I suspect no)

Why would you do that? The ONLY benefit about traveling for business is accumulating the points and you want to use them for a business trip? You been hitting that magic dragon again?
