Dubious Honor?  
  • White House Deputy Press Secretary Dana Perino said Gonzales has the full backing of the president.
    --After Gonzales appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee

  • Nov 1, 2006:
    "Both those men [Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney] are doing fantastic jobs and I strongly support them." -- George Bush
    Nov 8, 2006:
    Bush accepts Rumsfeld's Resignation

  • "You're doing a heck of a job, Brownie."
    --Bush to Michael Brown at the height of the post-Katrina response crisis and shortly before he relieved Brown of his duties.

  • October 2005:
    Bush nominates Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court


Is it just me or does The Idiot in Charge's endorsement seem to be code for "Incompetent Crony?" I bet Paul Wolfowitz, currently accused of promoting his lover to a high paying position, hopes that Bush stops touting how much he "has full faith" in him.

HEY! I think I owe you about a dozen e-mails & messages. I've completely forgotten about arranging a Saturday and time is dwindling. I'm sorry I've been so damned forgetful. You name the Saturday and I'll be there. :)

I hope future politicians study the Democratic campaigns of 2000 and 2004 so that we can determine to never, ever allow such an embarrassment to prevail. I'm so ashamed that he is what our country chose. (Well, ok, the voters only chose him in 2004 but the race should never have been close enough for it to hinge on hanging chads.)
