Bushisms

Some of the most brilliant lines I have ever read, written by a self-hating journalist:

"Bushisms," those much-discussed cultural artifacts that demonstrate the apparent stupidity of our poorly spoken president, really are pretty revealing. But criticism of them is likely to backfire horribly. A couple of examples will illustrate.

You said the same thing about the RNC and protests -- and your predictions bore out. Your true colors are coming out of those dowdy unkempt historian's clothes; I believe I detect the bright glow of a journalist or political public relations consultant shining through.

Just so you know, I would like to say: Congratulations Chris! First the LA Times, then the Washington Post, and then, Pinky, THE WORLD (also known as the New York Times).
