Secret Service Investigates Teen's Art Project Depicting Bush As Devil

PROSSER, Wash. -- One drawing showed President Bush's head on a stick. Another depicted Bush as a devil launching a missile.

The drawings by a 15-year-old boy in Prosser, Washington, were enough to prompt some questions from the Secret Service.

8. I'll email him again....
even though I don't work there anymore, I'll put a bug in his ear.
Also as I feel out the new newsroom I'll see what reporter might be interested as well.

Take a shot of bourbon or whiskey that'll numb the tooth.

6. If the school took diciplinary action, then is that a violation
of the boy's free speech rights?

7. I heard this on Air America News
I think that is where I heard it - and my first thought was what was wrong with the teacher - and then I decided to cut him/her some slack but I really didn't want to...and then I thought if that had happened during the Clinton Presidency would the teacher have turned the kid in. I think not....

Great kid his parents should be proud of him and they should fight any "punishment" the school decides to give him.

18. Don't be so chintzy with the +s how about A++
I know they don't really exist but indeed I had a college prof put that on a paper I wrote about Titan and organic compounds. Poor guy must have been wading through a lot of seriously disappointing stuff that day.
