President Bush seems to be cornered by the peace movement with peace camps located on both exits from the Western White House. But since he doesn't go by land anyway, and we've only seen him once in the 16 days here, we've decided to offer him the opportunity to land right here at Camp Casey. The construction crew is working overtime in the limited space we have to make sure that a helicopter pad is ready for Marine One to land upon Bush's return to Crawford. Naturally, the landing site meets or even exceeds FAA regulations; in fact, the FAA has already come out here to survey the site (okay, not really). We've found an environmentally sound location for the pad, and noise controls have been put in place so as not to disturb the cows. Furthermore, we will have a bicycle at the ready in case the President wants to continue his 5-week exercise program. He can ride home on a red carpet if he wants-- after all, it's only a block or two from here. The landing pad will be ready in the morning, with pictures to follow.
No excuses, Mr. President.
