1. I think it's kind of a tradition...
...that the sitting president attend the opening of a former president's library.

We can take comfort in the knowledge that georgie will likely be very uncomfortable having to pretend to be gracious and nice to people we know he can't stand.
:evilgrin:

5. Nothing is CW anymore
I think Clinton should have snubbed Bush. What would he have to lose?

4. I'd like to thank Bill for not doing much to help my opponent
and I'm pleased that he still thinks he can get his wife elected by sucking up to us. It's people like him that remind me that smart guys are much more fun to fuck over.

6. Figures
They both invaded countries and bombed them with depleted uranium. They both delayed or are delaying Kyoto. They both support WTO. They both support third world exploitation.
