By the way, will nobody here do the decent thing and tell us that Mr.
Bush LIED about spending Thanksgiving in Crawford? Oh, the travesty!

No, that would be a REPUBLICAN tactic.

I wonder if Bush's trip was meant partly to overwhelm any publicity
about Hillary's? Republicans seem really paranoid about Hillary running
for President, right now.

No. We are not. From where do you get that idea?

She has to vote on behalf of her constituents on matters that affect
or are affected by the conflict in Iraq.

Re #53: Nearly every conservative talk show host and columnist I've read
has done at least one article in the last year about how they think
there's a conspiracy afoot in the Democratic Party to set up a Hillary
candidacy in either 2004 or 2008. Generally the theory revolves around
either Clark being a stalking horse for Hillary, or the Clintons setting
up a deliberate loss in 2004 so the field will be open in 2008. William
Safire wrote about this last month, for example.

Mr. gull
You ought to be more discerning. That which Republicans believe is not
necessarily reflected by "conservative talk show hosts and columnists"
(a very tiny sample of what you might call "Republicans") and vice
versa. Quite obviously, the latter are interested in attracting
attention (listeners and readers) and will focus upon that
which "sells" rather than providing a true picture of Republican
interests and beliefs.
Thank you.

Messers klg(s),
We'll bear that in mind the next time you post *any* link from *any* media
source to support *any* of your arguments.

Incidentally, it turns out that the story of the British Airways pilot
spotting AirForce1 and nearly blowing the whole plan seems to have been
made up by the folks at the White House. Trying to add a little extra
drama to the project, I guess. Kinda like the whole WMD thing.

And you know that picture of the president holding a tasty-looking
turkey on a platter, surrounded by adoring troops? Turns out the turkey
wasn't real, either. That is, it was an actual turkey, but it was
inedible due to the various things done to pretty it up, a decoration
instead of a meal. A photo-op turkey, in other words (insert Bush joke
here).

Plus, it was probably twenty pound lighter than the real thing, you
know, so he wouldn't look like he was struggling to hold it up.

I'm on the verge of deciding that Bush's annoying persona is actually
a stroke of political genius. He can deliberately distort intelligence
data to manipulate the country into going to war but because of the
personalized loathing he generates among his political opponents for
some reason we're talking about the phony Thanksgiving turkey he posed
with instead. How cool is that, from Bush's standpoint?
