The countdown is at: 460 days

For those of you who missed it, Bush had a press conference this morning in which he discussed the war in Iraq, the situation with Iran, Vladimir Putin, and the SCHIP health insurance plan.
For those of you who saw the conference, you probably saw him stumble over his thoughts about world peace and how intervening in Iraq and Iran will help us accomplish it. Having said that, I've created a poll asking for thoughts on what he said about this during the conference. If you would like to take the poll, click on this link:


Is George W. Bush really striving for world peace?

All that aside, here's the Bush Bash of the Day:

Four boys were fishing. As their boat rounded a point on the lake,
they saw a man thrashing in the water. With no hesitation, they jumped
into the water and saved him.

It was not until they pulled him to shore that they noticed the man
they had saved was President George Bush, who had slipped away from
the Secret Service for a swim. When President Bush caught his breath,
he thanked the two boys and offered them anything they wanted in
return for saving his life.

The first boy thought about it for a while and finally answered. "I
would like a presidential appointment to West Point so I can serve my
country."

The next two thought that was a great idea, but one said he had always
wanted to be a pilot so he would rather attend the Air Force Academy.

The third boy chose the Naval Academy.

The president turned to the fourth boy, who was still thinking.
Finally he answered, "Mr. President, I would like a burial with honors
at Arlington National Cemetery." The president was shocked and asked
the boy why he would make such a request at his young age. The boy
replied, "Because when my father finds out I saved you, he is going to
kill me!"
