I have read a lot of history, as have you. - President Bush, Thursday You might have missed it, what with the Supreme Court resegregating the schools and Paris Hilton getting out of jail, but something really unprecedented happened this week: For the first time in his presidency, George W. Bush visited Rhode Island.
He's actually made more trips to Iraq.
(He only stayed 45 minutes, of course, and confined his sightseeing to a helicopter ride and a navy base. The only practical difference between a Bush visit to Newport and one to Baghdad was Air Force One could land with its lights on.)

I know this is going to sound partisan, but sometimes he comes across as a bozo.
He sounds like a lonely drunk in an empty bar who thinks if he says, "the Red Sox should have never traded Martinez" enough, someone will argue with him.
If your roommate talked about his girlfriend that much, you'd move.
