So the President writing a cheesy poem to his wife is an issue of importance to you? If only my life were so simple.

Not importance. But I am embarrassed that my president seems to be a complete moron, and every new bit of evidence that confirms that makes me wince just a little more.

Yes, but stupid evil people don't usually manage to be the source of all the world's ills, as Bush is supposed to be.

Nice location field, BTW. One of my all-time favorite quotes.

Quite true. The source of all the world's ills are often good-hearted intelligent people who think they know what everyone else wants.

Wow, our Hero-in-Chief is also a poet ... and humorist! As an American, I can't help but gush with pride! It helps hide the profound embarrassment of having a buffoon as a national leader.

Then again, maybe we should expect nothing less - Dubya is, after all, the son of a noted author. Of course, you recall Barbara Bush's celebrated work, written from the perspective of Millie, the First Dog? The ol' apple sure doesn't fall far from the tree, does it?

And that is why Erkki Tuomioja should never become the PM of Finland.

But anyway, why hasn't anyone commented on "lump in the bed?" The Bushes must set the White House bedroom on fire every night with the heat of the loinal action.

Making fun of Dubya is one thing, but insulting Barbara Bush is going too damn far. She's a national treasure, you insensitive *****.

Bush is a drooling idiot.

The people who tell him what to do are devious and evil.

Does that clear things up?

(In this way, and in this way alone, is Bush the true heir to Reagan).

Ah, yes, Barbara Bush -- the woman who characterized Rep. Geraldine Ferraro as a b!tch during the 1984 campaign. Such a treasure.

I submit that Bush is simply the front-man for Cheney, Rumsfeld, et al.

You submit, apparently, that Bush is actually in charge, and Cheney, Rumsfeld, et al. are taking their cues from him.

And you think which of us is donning the tinfoil chapeau?

Compared to Hillary, that's downright ladylike. Besides, Geraldine Ferraro is a *****. Bush is a treasure because she's both honest and tough.

This would make sense, seeing as how Bush has sided with Powell and Rice on occasion in inter-administration battles. Doesn't really look like the actions of a moronic puppet, unless you have some tinfoil obscuring your view.

In terms of overhead photography!

A trained ape can know an awful lot
Of what is going on in this world,
Just by punching on his mouse
For a relatively modest cost!
