As of This Minute, The Bush Administration Has Effectively Ended
As of This Minute, The Bush Administration Has Effectively Ended
by DHinMI
Fri Jan 16, 2009 at 02:01:40 PM PST

It's 5:00 PM in the Eastern time zone, which includes Washington DC. 5:00 PM is the standard end of the workday. It's Friday, the end of the week. Monday is a federal holiday, so the mass of federal employees will not be working. On Tuesday President-elect Barack Obama will become President Barack Obama, our nation's 44th president.

Some White House staff will be kept on for the next few days. Certainly in the defense, foreign policy and domestic security areas there are Bush appointees who will--and should--remain on call or at their desks between now and Tuesday. The could still be some late-night activities happening with some of the legal staff. But in terms of devising, implementing and enforcing policies, as of this moment, the Bush administration is effectively over.

8. You will never see Bush cleaning brush in
Crawford because the pig farm was a prop and clearing brush was a photo op to fool the masses into believing he was a "regular guy."
