The two posts I've been working on are now old news, amazing beyond expectations news, but the consequences of having a check on Bush was swifter than I could ever have imagined.
How stupid. If this clown (Bush) would have fired his inept SecDef six months ago, they might have kept Congress -- certainly the Senate wouldn't have been in danger.
Karl Rove -- Super Genius. Bush admits that he can speak more truthfully without an election hanging over his head. Does that mean he'll admit that nobody, even democrats, aren't siding with terrorists? He seems to say so.
He also asked David Gregory if he thought he was nuts. Hmm, anyone want to field that?
I think this press conference was POTUS's way of asking us not to kick him while he's down. We'll see how that works out with the new SecDef's confirmation hearings. That'll set the tone, even if it is a lame duck Senate that holds the inquisition.
