Wow, I'm amazed that Papa Bush would publicly say anything even hinting at his belief his son is in the wrong. Privately, sure, the man's neither stupid nor unobservant, but I would have expected that family to present a united supportive front to the death.

It's a sad, sad day when I find myself missing Bush I, because at least the man had an understanding that foreign allies are a good thing.

Yes, indeedy. The man may have had no soul to speak of, but I never doubted that he had a working brain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Everything went fine. I did not step on the bride's train or lose the ring, nor did I trip walking up and down the aisle.

Excellent.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I just got an alert from Yahoo that Bush is going to announce his replacement for Alan Greenspan at 1 pm Eastern.

I'm an accountant! Maybe it's me!!
