"It's important that we celebrate a peaceful transfer of power .... You can be equally concerned about our troops in Iraq and those who suffered at the tsunamis (and) with celebrating democracy," Bush said in a CBS News interview released on Monday.

Hunh??

1. say what ?

2. LOL!!

I'm so glad it'll be peaceful. It'd be terrible if he decided not to relinquish power to himself and jumped up and started a fight with himself in the middle of the inauguration.

4. He's had enough trouble negotiating with himself -

A fistfight with himself might kill him.

5. It means the election was stolen again, doesn't it?

I remember the idiot TV commentators covering the last Inauguration. They congratulated everyone on having a "peaceful transfer of power". Just so we wouldn't get hung up on that "voting" thing--so 20th Century, you know.

Of course, Bush heard the phrase, remembered it & used it. Incorrectly, of course--no power is being transferred. But he didn't reject it as an obscene travesty of Democracy.

8. Don't misunderestimate him
