Thank goodness I took a second look, because I'm a speed reader and I got SO scared until I reread: "(excised portions in italics)" because I thought ohmygod! .... and yet maybe not thank goodness, because it was so damned plausible... Adam, you've got to stop worrying me like that! Bad enough I worry you're not eating enough vegetables, you get me into conniptions about the world??? (and whether it will be here tomorrow?) Oh my!

And as amazing as it may seem, I think that not only Bush believes these lies, but a signifigant portion of the population does too. Analysis: Were in trouble.

The Boardroom has taken over in a way I hadn't realized.

Except I had to keep going back to remind myself that this was satire. WAY to damn plausible. P.S. The "Hurrican Bush" bit on WWDTM was A-1 work!! Adam,

Like your mother, I too had to go back to the “(excised portions in italics)”. Except I had to keep going back to remind myself that this was satire. WAY to damn plausible.

P.S. The “Hurrican Bush” bit on WWDTM was A-1 work!!

He's never succeeded in business and has needed to be bailed out every time. Who's gonna be there to bail us out? Don,

He’s never succeeded in business and has needed to be bailed out every time.

Who’s gonna be there to bail us out?

He believes that God speaks to him directly, that even though a half million more people voted for Gore, it was only through God's will that he was elected, and that in everthing he does, he is God's instrument for good against evil. With God as your co-pilot how can you worry about the little bumps (untruths). He has been sent on God's mission and the least he can do is believe his own words. And we thought that Sadam was dangerous. Oh course W. believes what he says.
