Yeah, I read Maureen Dowd speculating on this one. And it, like much that she writes, was annoying.
Hey guess, what? The Bush Administration is weakening safety standards on nuclear reactors. And people are still dying in Darfur. And Iraq. And Afghanistand, Tajikistan, hmm let's see, China's still a human rights nightmare and we're still sucking on the oil tit of a country that provided 79% of the 9/11 hijackers. Belief in global warming is out, belief in an invisible god is still in, despite there being a tad more evidence of the former -- and evolution is still somewhat of a bugbear. Teachers are overworked and underpaid and standardized testing isn't helping our students very much. My health insurance premiums have doubled in the past two years. Oh, yeah, but we're all worried that Karl Rove might have pulled a big dirty trick? This is a non-story. Bush in the guard is a non-story.
