2. Jeb was there...
...Yahoo News has 15 photos from the "event," for those with a strong stomach. Go here:

...and click on "Slideshow: USS George H.W. Bush" (under the photo on the left).

Bar wasn't there...probably home feeding her beautiful mind.

9. I did manage to get through the slide show and was...
surprised to see Colin Powell and his wife there. The whole evil cabal was there including Rumsfeld and George Allen. The photo of Barbara was real hard on the eyes.

11. Colin looked really, really, really, really, really happy to be there.
You can tell that there are no hard feelings, no bitterness, just an unbridled sense of joy that a war ship is being named after the father of the man who threw him on the trash heap.

:patriot:

8. I mentioned this to Jimmy Carter and he said...
...that probably over a hundred people had told him that.

Then he just laughed it off.
