As usual, this is a tempest in a teacup and thoroughly un-newsworthy, though it did provide this fabulous quote: “The number of ‘fleeting’ penises we expect to see on broadcast television is zero.”

Bush, It is now for them to demonstrate to the world that those who can fairly carry an election can also suppress a rebellion; that ballots are the rightful and peaceful successors of bullets; and that when ballots have fairly and constitutionally decided, there can be no successful appeal back to […]

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071223/ap_on_an/mortgage_crisis_4;_ylt=AqoF6PEcw.Dhgi6aibG7AQAE1vAI After a slow and stumbling start, official Washington is scrambling to try to prevent the unfolding mortgage crisis from pushing the country into recession during an election year. There is a strong feeling, though, that the government will need to do more to avert a financial disaster. Congratulations, George W. Bush! An unwinnable war […]

Wow. In addition to leaving, the rats are also being thrown from the sinking ship. How soon before The Decider is left by his lonesome, as a […]

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070404/ap_on_go_pr_wh/bush_20 President Bush denounced “irresponsible” Democrats on Tuesday for going on spring break without approving money for the Iraq war with no strings.

Familiar Fallback for Officials: ‘Mistakes Were Made’ – New York Times
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/14/washington/14mistakes.html?ex=1331524800&en=034d573555d97e29&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss The New York Times details a history of the phrase, “mistakes were made”, which has seen some heavy use in Washington since the era of Tricky Dick the First. I particularly liked this zinger from the final paragraph: The nonconfessions inspired William Schneider, a political guru here, to note a few years ago that […]
