With Rove busy trying to keep his butt out of the slammer, I`m surprised he has so much time choreographing all Junior`s Peter Pan photo ops. In fact, after that Disney-challenged shot of Bush in Jackson Square, New Orleans, I thought Rove might give it up altogether. Remember it? Blue haze, blue building, blue shirt, blue grass? No electricity anywhere except for that produced by the brazillion-dollar generator they must have dragged down from Washington.
Breathless media marionettess announced yesterday that Bush was hosting a bipartisan get together featuring former secretaries of state and defense. Bush allotted only 5 to 10 minutes for the group to discuss Iraq. Keith Olbermann did the math and reported that averaged out to about 23 seconds of Iraq Talk per person before they were whisked off for the photo op. Now I get it. It`s not the war, it`s the photo, stupid.
Bush is starting to remind me of those little prairie dogs I saw in New Mexico. No matter where I went, one seemed to pop up. Junior`s photo ops are getting so frequent and so bizarre, Rove might as well hire a carnival barker, sell photo op tickets and use the cash for DeLay`s defense fund.
