"The White House staff has been briefing Barack Obama's team on a series of worst-case scenarios that could face the country after President Bush leaves office. That's the latest. Yeah. Apparently, the absolute worst case scenario is that Bush doesn't leave office." --Conan O'Brien

"The shoe-tossing guy in Iraq, you know, he wrote a letter to President Bush and he apologized. He said, 'Dear president Bush, I'm sorry I threw a shoe at you.' And I was thinking, wait a minute. When is President Bush going to apologize for invading Iraq?" --David Letterman

Bush Hides Behind The Skirts
The two most influential
women in President George W. Bush's White House — first lady Laura Bush and
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice — are strongly defending the president's
legacy against critics who are calling his administration one of the worst in
history.
"I know it's not, and so I don't really feel like I need to respond to people
that view it that way," Mrs. Bush said in an interview that aired Sunday. "I
think history will judge and we'll see later."
Rice took a similar view in a separate interview,
saying that claims that the Bush administration has been one of the worst ever
are "ridiculous."

Subject: Bob Boldt's Excellent Shoe -Throwing Note
Hi, Lisa... I liked the note you received from Bob Boldt about throwing shoes at Bush. The more I watched that video of the brave journalist letting Bush know how he and most of the planet feel about him, the funnier it became. Bush's jaw seems to wiggle a bit as he comes back up from his first duck and the look in his eyes is priceless. Still, the old fart managed to avoid getting it right in the kisser...unfortunately.
However, I don't want to see anybody arrested for throwing shoes at Bush, even after he leaves office. He's not worth it. I imagine he and Pickles will have Secret Service protection for the rest of their natural lives, assuming George manages to stay out of jail. If any of us should ever manage to actually see Bush in public, maybe it would be better to simply take off our shoes, stand as tall as we possibly can, and wave them in the air so Bush can't avoid seeing them. As dumb as he is, even he should still get the message. If we're accosted by his protectors for doing so, we simply have a good excuse ready. Or maybe it's still ok in post-Bush America to exercise the right to "air" our shoes at will!
Happy New Year!
Catherine
Great idea Catherine. The way the economy is going not many Americans will have any shoes to throw.
Happy New Year to you too.
