Why do I get the sinking feeling that Bush has no intention of changing his ways?
"Twenty-three years ago two men shook hands [on screen: an '83 photo of Donald Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam Hussein]. No one then could have guessed how closely their fates would be intertwined, or that this week would be kind of a crappy week for both of them. Just days after Saddam Hussein was sentenced to death, Donald Rumsfeld was dealt an even crueler punishment -- irrelevance." --Jon Stewart

President Bush's dad, former
President George H. W. Bush, couldn't stand Donald Rumsfeld -- but zipped his

Olbermann
"I think,'' says MSNBC
General Manager Dan Abrams, "that Keith Olbermann may become a model for the
newscast of the future.''
And sure, Abrams is going to say that because he's Olbermann's boss. Besides,
the MSNBC ratings have been on a roll lately --
helped by the 67 percent jump in viewership for Olbermann's show in the year
since he began channeling Howard ("I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take
this any more!'') Beale from the movie "Network.''

visitor attacked it the day before last week's elections.
"Donald Rumsfeld was known as the architect of the Iraq war. He can feel proud of what he's built, because it's going to last for years and years and years." --Jay Leno
