8. Kind of smells like that, doesn't it.
The throat-cutting. The appearance-saving. The sudden realism over ideology.

I didn't see Jr., did you? It sounds like he is recovering from being smacked around last night.

12. Yep. The Don and his consigliere have the levers of power now.
W must have gotten smacked around pretty good over Rumsfeld. I think that added to his agitation during the presser.

4. It is obvious that is is neither Rove or Cheney
That was different bu$h behind that podium. Still not a good bu$h but just different.

20. Agreed. He was on his own out there. His earpiece was inoperative.
KKKarl has left the building. Bye, KKKarl!

7. Apparently Cheney is being held back by garlic and crosses
Still, I'm nervous. Bush vs Cheney-who will come out on top?

9. Poppy Bush, all fat and sassy from his excess heroin profits
out of Afghanistan.

Not a big improvement, but at least he's not clinically insane.

13. Daddy Bush
Junior will fade away. He disappears after all his failures. Pat Buchanan shut the fugg up. The Dems have whipped you and this will not go away.
