Bush as Diogenes: looking for someone honest
Here are his illustrious words from yesterday's (12/20) press conference:

"Now, in terms of the NDI -- DNI, I'm going to find someone that knows something about intelligence, and capable and honest and ready to do the job. And I will let you know at the appropriate time when I find such a person."

1. I howled with laughter when I heard him say that!
And my response was, "Oh, so you're going with a Democrat after all?"

2. Honest as defined by bush means being a good liar.

3. I don't think Diogenes lantern was filled by global corporatist oil
Bush's is. This might take awhile.

4. How would he even recognize an honest person?
Being a complete scumbag and all.

5. So, it appears safe to say
Junior will not be nominating himself for the position.

He'd better get out that lantern and find someone fast while he still has his own job. Someone needs to remind him not to waste time by looking in a mirror, either. He won't find an intelligent, capable, honest, hard-working man there. Besides, his kind don't have reflections. Giles and Buffy told us so.
