Wednesday Reading For A Retired President
“I
’d call [Maureen] Dowd an ass,” writes the Watcher of Weasels in the intro for the first Watcher’s Council competition of the Obama era, “but I am short on compliments today.”
Dowd, as you can well imagine, was reveling in the last thrills of Bush Derangement Syndrome – but I say, “Mr. President, now that you’re back in Texas, relax, have a sweet tea, and enjoy some fine reading … including this, from The Watcher:”
As I wrote yesterday in my Do You Feel Different? piece, there is plenty of Bush Derangement Syndrome to go around. The world is full of media types and political pundits that feel the nee to cajole and take pot shots at the former administration at least one last time. Which leads me to believe there is going to be a big void left in their already empty lives until the reality of President Barack Obama catches up with the myth that they have created.
Yes, you say, but what about this week’s entries? Glad you asked:
