NYT: Running on Empty

Great interview, interesting how I can agree with Republicans who follow the logic this guy talks about.

Bush, golfing 2 months after he said he'd given up golf out of respect for the war

I wish I knew why why Bush's advisors create these circus distractions. I cant believe a president does and says this. It seems like it belongs in another reality. This makes Britney Spears look good.

I cant believe a president says he gives up golf. It is insulting. I give up clam chowder out of disdain for his entire organization.

And Repbulicans still say they hate Clinton for his lack of values, and lying. I understand lying about sex. I dont understand lying and killing thousands of Americans and continuing the lie 6 years. I would not be able to live with myself, knowing I am personally responsible for saying "yes" to killing innocent Iraqis and Americans and havent done one thing to get out of the situation.
