Bill Sammon -- crack whore extraordinaire
Clouds clear quickly for Bush

By Bill Sammon
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
November 2, 2005

President Bush, coming off one of the roughest weeks of his presidency, appears to have rebounded by holding on to his top political strategist and ending a conservative rebellion over the Supreme Court.

"This has been a good week," a senior White House official said. "Everybody was shrieking about how terrible the president was doing and yet already, through the clouds, you begin to see the remedy take shape."

Just last week, Mr. Bush endured the indictment of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, and the withdrawal of Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers.

But Mr. Libby, who has resigned, was an obscure figure outside of official Washington. By contrast, the widely known Karl Rove is the president's top strategist and was not indicted in the probe that ensnared Mr. Libby, contrary to Democratic expectations.

Moreover, the withdrawal of Miss Miers put an end to complaints from Mr. Bush's supporters about her thin conservative credentials. By replacing Miss Miers with the more demonstrably conservative Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr. on Monday, the president rallied his base for a long-desired showdown with Democrats.

1. Gray skies are gonna clear up - put on a happy face!
Brush off the clouds and cheer up,
Put on a happy face!

Take off that gloomy mask of tragedy,
It's not your style.
You'll look so good that you'll be glad ya decided to smile!

Pick out a pleasant outlook,
Stick out that noble chin,
Wipe off that full-of-doubt look,
Slap on a happy grin!

And spread sunshine all over the place, just
Put on a happy face!

Put on a happy face!

Put on a happy face!

And if you're feeling cross and bickerish
Don't sit and whine.
Think of banana splits and licorice,
And you'll feel fine!

I knew a girl so gloomy,
She'd never laugh or sing,
SHe wouldn't listen to me,
Now she's a mean old thing!

So spread sunshine all over the place, just
Put on a happy face!

:D

2. The "remedy"?
Uh, hate to break it to you folks, but you're about to undergo a very painful rectal probe about this.

And there's nothing you can do to avoid it.

4. Yeah, that's their spin this week.
Kate O'Beirne was saying how * had a good week. Andrea Mitchell interrupted to say, "And what would you consider a bad week?"

8. All you have to do is mention that man's name.
I don't even have to read his work. He is a Bush apologist, bootlicking, butt kissing, kool-aid drinking dittohead of the worse kind.
