As always, that was great! Or what.

I bet the Beefeater is still not responding. You just can’t beat those Brits for high tech. Or is it for being non-responsive and non-sentient?

Maybe it's time to drop the "Bush as infantile rube controlled by evil geniuses" schtick. I object to George II as much as anyone, but he's not stupid and he's not ineffectual. He certainly does things that I think are misguided, but he's been pretty darn effective in accomplishing his goals. Sun Tzu or Clausewitz or Yogi Berra probably said something about the danger of (mis)underestimating one's enemies. Adam,

Make the nasty men in the White House go away, Adam! Yeah, I totally read it as “evil manipulative Bush doing his Georgie Porgie act on that wimp Pow-Pow”…
