BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN!

Apparently, Iraqi Security Forces don't get decks of cards. Good timing on this one. I bet Dick Cheney would have loved to have gone after him with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch.

So...um...yeah....

I would like to joke about this, but I don't know if it's funny.

Sigh.

jury duty

The president's been summoned to serve on a jury back home in Crawford, Texas.

I checked, and Crawford's a few counties over from Travis County where Tom DeLay was indicted; so, sadly, no chance Bush's been summoned for that one, though presumably he'd get an easy out on account of knowing the accused.

One wonders what his excuse will be for dereliction of this Texas duty?
