. . . and waiting for it to be over

Has the span of 77 days (Nov 4 to Jan 20) ever seemed so interminable? He's still here and still saying dumb things. Does he just not think about what he says? Does no one point out the obvious to him?

In his radio address Saturday, President George W. Bush said this:
"Since Hamas's violent takeover in the summer of 2007, living conditions have worsened for Palestinians in Gaza. By spending its resources on rocket launchers instead of roads and schools, Hamas has demonstrated that it has no intention of serving the Palestinian people."

That goes right up there with his saying, about the Russians invading Georgia: nations should not invade other nations.

How much has the Bush War spent on invading another country instead of spending it on roads and schools, both in Iraq and here at home?

NY Times 2/26/08. President Bush rebuffed appeals from the nation's governors on Monday to increase spending on roads, bridges and other public works as a way to revive the economy.
16 days.
