A Guy Can Hope

Anybody else out there hoping that the Bush-handlers' latest round of patriotic hubris shoots them in the foot come November 2004? (For instance: *snicker*).

My favorite quote in the Times article is:

The current president, White House officials said, has already dispatched with his father's biggest problem, the perception that he was out of touch with the nation's economic woes, by pushing his economic program nearly every time he appears in public.

The fact that everybody laughs at him, only to be Vulcan-death-gripped back into fearful submission is, of course, ignored. Uh-oh -- I'm getting odd looks. Um, yeah yeah, I'm just kidding . . . cutting taxes and spending is a good thing. Sacrifice -- it's the American way. Well, unless it's fuel-consumption . . . or fast food . . or . . .
