Good grief! Look at what I found at wonkette
from www.wonkette.com



Exhibit A: President Bush’s posture is great. And Karl Rove has never looked more like Philip Seymour Hoffman. The first chapter inexplicably ceases mentioning the President at all after this panel, possibly because the artists seem scared to draw his face.



Exhibit B: Dick Cheney attempts to express shock despite being unable to register any emotion on his vulcanized rubber face. Meanwhile, androgyne adviser Mary Cheney/Karen Hughes/Mary Matalin looks on, concerned. Also: “Oh, no!” is apparently the interjection of choice at the White House, after “golly” and “holy cow” were ruled a bit risque for mixed company.

This is still the absolute stupidest thing we’ve ever seen.

Here is the whole idiotic thing (or, at least, what has been released so far):

3. Saw this in the dentist's office today, in the Sept. issue of Esquire -
In a side bar called "The Back Story," Alberto Gonzales is referred to as "The Unheralded Neogtiater," and Rummy, Tenet, and Meuller are referred to as "unexpected allies." I'll definately pass on this one...

4. Good grief is right
Bush said on several occasions that he saw the first plane crash live, on a TV in the school hallway which was "obviously on". He was supposedly told of the second crash in the classroom by Andy Card, who whispered something in his ear for 2 seconds ("The second tower has been hit! America is under attack!"), than backed off without waiting for a reply. And bu$h himself did not seem interested in learning more. Instead, he turned his attention to the kids who were preparing to read The Pet Goat (not "My Pet Goat"), and picked up a book after the kids started reading the story in unison.
