What to do???

Things have not been going as I would have expected them to go. My PI is being a complete douche and that's being kind. Despite what the powers that be have said ( thesis committee, program director etc), he may not allow me to graduate this year. According to him we don't have enough and philosophically we wouldn't want to put anything int he dissertation that we wouldn't publish.
The main thing to note about this lab and him is that although we have literally millions of $$$ at our disposal we produce NO real work, no papers ,well at in least the past 5 years, and apart from one paper ( and that was mainly due to pressure from our collaborators). He's been on lots of papers but only by himself. Despite going to lab and working my ass off for the last 6 years and having been told I have more than enough to publish a couple papers, I HAVE NOTHING and this ass is going to make me miss the last deadline for submission of graduation documents.
At this stage I have one of two options:
1. Get a job or post-doc position with a definite start date.
2. Have my program director and thesis chair over rule this ass and have them sign off on everything so I can get my PhD and move on.

Right now I went with the first, I have a post-doc interview the first week of Feb and it's exactly what I want to work on. I was contemplating contacting this PI from last year but was not sure about 'inbreeding'. My program doesn't like it but people have done it (due to other factors), my two main factors i;s it's the quickest way to get out of this lab and my post chemo doctor visits are scheduled into 2011. I don't want to move far away and would have to take time off to come back to this city for check ups etc.
So I think I may give this a try for a year or two and then move on, I also wanted to take the patent bar exam which I have on schedule for later this year. So much to think about and so much to do but for the past few weeks every conversation with my PI has left me depressed and defeated. I shouldn't let it get to me because I should be use to his passive aggressive behaviour by now.
