Quote of the day

I'm so glad Dan Froomkin is back from vacation. I would have missed this from Bush's last speech. He actually had the nerve to call bin Laden a chickenhawk.

Bin Laden says his own role is to tell Muslims, quote, "what is good for them and what is not." And what this man who grew up in wealth and privilege considers good for poor Muslims is that they become killers and suicide bombers. He assures them that his -- that this is the road to paradise -- though he never offers to go along for the ride.

That's so rich coming from a spoiled, incompetent, lying, Ivy League failure like Bush who had to sneak in under the cover of night on his only trip to Iraq, so he could deliver a rubber turkey for the cameras.

My second favorite quote comes from an interview Dan posts from Bush's photo op in Lousiana where he was grilled by Matt Lauer. Our Chief Thief apparently wasn't too pleased with the line of questioning.

"You're quoting a lot of Democrats today, Matt, that's interesting."

The video is worth watching if only to see Laura glaring at Matt. And check out both their eyes. Maybe it was my computer, but I thought the First Couple looked just a little drugged.
