"President
Bush is on the hunt for a new home. He just found out he and Laura are going to
have to move out of the White House in a few months. His massive plan of
foreclosures and plummeting real estate prices finally paid off." --Jimmy

President Bush welcomed
Dubai's ruler to his presidential retreat on Sunday, returning the favor for the
opulent hospitality he received in the United Arab Emirates this year.
At Camp David in rustic Maryland, Bush met with Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum,
the UAE's prime minister and ruler of Dubai.
"You're looking good," Bush told
al-Maktoum after the sheik arrived by helicopter. Both leaders were dressed
casually and engaged in small talk before driving out of sight on a golf cart.
"In a speech yesterday, Barack Obama said he's distantly related to the famous 19th century gunslinger Wild Bill Hickok. After hearing this, John McCain said, "Big deal, I went to high school with him." --Conan O'Brien
