The NWS is forecasting 1 - 5 inches of snow for us tonight!
"The White House says it's pushing back the attack on Iraq until after January 1. It's hard to get Bush to focus on anything until after Santa has come." - Conan O'Brian.
Earth to Mr Fleischer...
"The time has come for people to raise their hands and cast their vote." - White House spokes-tool Ari "the Liar" Fleischer, conveniently forgetting all about the massive antiwar protests this past weekend.
"There is something odd about a White House that thinks misleading people about sex is a crime, but misleading us about war is good public policy." - Paul Begala, on world-class liars Ari 'n' Dumbya.
Captain Cowpat has hissyfit, kicks Vicente out of secret club
The Washingtoon comPost bemoans "a virtual dialogue of the deaf" between the 2 'ranch guys' during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. While Vicente Fox talked about immigration and trade, Bunnypants focused like a squirrel with a peanut on Iraq, and on noodging Mexico into voting for the U.S. bombing-for-poll-numbers resolution against Baghdad.
Bush, said a Mexican official, is a different person than he was when he met with Fox in 2001. The man who once made Mexicans feel relaxed and welcome now makes them nervous and often irritated. The Mexicans find Bush, once easygoing and open, now tough and single-minded. Don't forget crabby.
During a brief question-and-answer session with President Fox, Bush broke protocol by cutting off the interpreter trying to provide the English version of Fox's answer for viewers around the world. "I know what he said," snapped Bush, whose aides say he is not fluent in Spanish.
Mexico, like most thinking American voters, believes he has broken virtually every promise he ever made. Not only that, they are amazed at the misadministration's inability to pay attention to more than one foreign policy issue at a time. But here's the laugher: Bunnypants' nursemaids wonder why Mexico "cannot be more understanding of the international and domestic pressures Bush is under, and the enormous security concerns he has to deal with. Why, they ask, can't Mexico be more patient in its knowledge that, in his heart, Bush is a genuine 'ranch guy' who will prove in due time that he is still Fox's true compaƱero?" Gawd.
Somewhere, Tweety is on his knees. Praying, this time. That there'll always be photo-ops of the Cretin of Crawford in cowboy duds. Yuck.
