David,
The best we can do is to try to get through to the election with humor and civility--forwarded is another contribution. Bush clips on David Letterman add to the notion that Bush could be changing his career pattern-of-downward-spiral by trying his hand at yet another one, stand up comedy. As the Letterman segments show, he ain't no good at that one either.
My favorite new source for national dialogue is Air America, which I found comes in over the internet without even being on the screen--multi-tasking is possible! It is so refreshing to hear people of civility commenting on current affairs of state, our respite from the righteous blathering of the far right that so predominates the airwaves.
Oops, Air America "paused," for much too long, must go... 
Frances

BUSH QUITS DAY JOB

Will Devote Himself Full-time to Stand-up Comedy 

George W. Bush shocked the world yesterday by resigning the Presidency to concentrate his energies on his fledgling career as a stand-up comedian.

After his memorable performance last week at the Radio and Television Correspondents Association s dinner, Mr. Bush was apparently bitten by the comedy bug and longed to get out on the road and try out some new material, White House spokesman Scott McClellan said today.

Dick Cheney, who was sworn in as President somewhere in the labyrinthine underground lair he has called home for the last two and a half years, wished the former President well in his latest endeavor, a fifteen-city comedy tour of Iraq that will take him from oil-rich Kirkuk to the southern city of Basra.

Mr. Bush, who made his debut last night at the newly opened comedy club Tikkles of Tikrit, is said to have developed a slapstick-filled comedy routine reminiscent of the veteran comedian Gallagher.

In his act, Mr. Bush smashes several large watermelons with a sledgehammer as he searches in vain inside them for weapons of mass destruction.

Merv Schine, a manager of comedians who has guided the careers of many successful comics in Las Vegas and Atlantic City, saw Mr. Bush at Tikkles and said the predominantly Sunni audience didn t seem to get him. 

I thought he was too hip for the room, Mr. Schine said. And it didn t help that there was an explosion outside every four minutes. 

In a related story, Dr. Condoleezza Rice announced today that she would leave her post as National Security Adviser to pursue a new career as a mime.
