3. The "Do Not Call Registry" was a good idea.
I'm glad the Bush admin was forced into enforcing it.

47. I liked this one, and I was appreciative when Mr Bush traveled. . .
to Rochester, New York, to pay a visit to Jason McElwain, the autistic high school senior who made the news by scoring 20 points for his high school basketball team when he was put in during the team's last game of the season. And yes, I recognize it was strictly a political move, and Bush's motivation was undoubtedly weighted more to his own interests than in honoring Jason, but it was one of those Presidential acts that speaks to the best of our humanity and I was pleased to see the smile on Jason's face.

Maybe they could just keep going to Paraguay.

One thing I noticed when researching this, it seems AP and Yahoo have dropped those stories from their links as if the incident never took place? So much for integrity.

53. Inadvertantly the * administration pushed many US citizens to
start reading the Constitution and becoming familiar with the political process. Thus they became educated and awoke from their stupor.

So we cold thank them for that!

Ha..ha..ha. they couldn't do a fucking thing right!
