Very droll Bush smackdown on "Weeds"--don't miss it!
SPOILER (for those who don't have cable):

Nancy's 12-year-old son is doing debate against his middle-school crush. The announcer says that they are going to discuss the Electoral college vs. the Popular vote in Presidential elections. Nancy's kid is handling the argument in favor of the Popular vote.

He rises and says, "Ladies and gentlemen....George W. Bush. Thank you." And SITS DOWN! (To a standing ovation from the room.)

His opponnent/crush, frothing with rage, shouts, "He can't do that! He can't just say the name of the worst president in history and use that as his argument! I forfeit!" She storms off.

What's really funny is, she doesn't argue with him--she argues that HIS argument can't be refuted when discussing Bush, since he's so vile. Someone on that show must haaaaaate the Bushies.

And mad props to the show--the past few weeks have been absolutely brilliant, including the twist involving Mary Louise Parker and Martin Donovan.

3. I've been laughing at that one all day.
Did you see his answer last week to "what are they teaching you in school?"

I don't know the dialog verbatim but it was something like "whatever I need to pass the weekly achievement tests and make sure the school gets more money"

Priceless.
