Lame Duck Ducks

For years we've wanted to give Bush the boot, finally someone did:

I say kudos to that guy, whose name we can't pronounce, for throwing things we wouldn't have thought to. He could have thrown something totally unoriginal at Bush like eggs, pies, tomatoes or a spitball. But no, he went for the shoe. That's right. Because his culture says it's more offensive.

The only downside is that when you throw shoes at a world leader, it's easy for the secret service to figure out who did it... "Get that shoeless guy!"

Climate Changes, So Does Bush

President Bush changes his stance on climate change and now acknowledges that global warming is happening. Noteworthy because this officially makes him the LAST person on the planet to know about the planet.

Even the Pope is bashing Bush for too little, too late! And by 'The Pope' I, of course, mean Carl Pope, Executive Director of the Sierra Club:

"The president is throwing a Hail Mary to polluters in a last-ditch effort to stave off any meaningful action on global warming. Under the president's plan we'll need a real miracle to save us from global warming," said Carl Pope, executive director of the Sierra Club.

Bush is like the airline representative that shows up after a crash to say something comforting like, "Oops, uh, sorry about that...can I offer you some complimentary peanuts?"
