Oh, it's getting thick :puke:

That was in reference to bush just using the word "mistake" in The Speech.

1. and Snowjob was waxing eloquent

(or an unreasonable facsimile thereof) yesterday comparing Georgie Butch to Lincoln, Washington, and Churchill.

Tony and Tweety need to just GET A ROOM.

2. Matthews just said he thought junior had 2 more chances in eyerack. He's a numbnut.

3. I got the impression he was referring to similar historic situations.

I'm not thinking Matthews is 'throwing flowers' at his feet.

4. Actually, he's really busting on Bush right now.

The reference to JFK was in the context of their discussion of what the effect of admitting a mistake would be. When JFK admitted that the Bay of Pigs was a mistake it actually helped in the polls, but Tweety didn't think doing so will help Bush. I didn't take it as a compliment to Bush at all.

5. Bush does compare to JFK

the 11/23/1963 one ... but Bush just comes under JFK in the intelligence level there ...
