Is * taking the day off?

[spotbird]

There is a thread in Kos reporting that there is a pow-wow at the White House of all places. Since Chimp avoids the White House as carefully as he does honest discourse it's hard to know what's up.

One poster suggested that * is headed for Iraq for another plastic turkey event.

Any thoughts?

1. That would be a reasonable stunt

You just have to wonder how many times Americans would fall for that?

Anyway, he's probably just resting because being prezdent is hard work (what do you want to bet Kerry works 18 hour days without one day off between now and election day!)

3. Bush rallies EMPTY?!

have they really said that on CNN...that his rallies are half empty?

7. Well it's probably a lot of work to give every potential attendee their

proper litmus test whereas Kerry just opens up a big tent and says "come on in." You would have to have an incredibly big and active screening staff just to make sure you don't let anyone in who might actually ask the president a challenging question.

2. any time he's missing

I figure that it's another Turkey surprise, so I'm betting with the poster you've referenced.

4. well, now...

....surely he has time today for that medical exam.

Right?

5. Yeah, he's at the WH.

Working on "campaign strategies," I think. It's code for "Georgie wants to play Game Boy."

6. Hope its the flu shot he got

I hope he gets sick from it.
