A tooth that Aches and other stuff

In case anyone wanted to know what kept me up all night. I will be going to the dentist today to get that figured out.

But as long as I was up all night I did some reading. From the pages of US News we find that The team looking for a site for the GW Bush library is considering Waco or Dallas. These folks are very impatient. It seems wrong somehow that they can't wait out the few remaining days he will have in office.

Kerry and Edwards are simultaneously pictured as "The Brady Bunch (in a political cartoon) or The ambiguously Gay Duo from SNL's Gary Smigel (as referenced by "Bush aides" as if they ever watch the show). GOP insiders are calling the Dem hopefuls 'the first metrosexual ticket.' Given their apparent hate for homosexuals, which rivals their hate for Hillary Clinton and her wandering spouse, can these comments be viewed in any way other than derogatory? And should we expect a higher level of discourse from our leaders and those who would seek to hold those positions?

Did anyone else hear of the episode in the news yesterday where President GW Bush gave some High School Age (first time voter) protestors the "one-finger wave"? As far as I know the footage has not been aired - its probably buried in the vaults at Fox News- but can't you just see him chuckling in that unfortunate way that makes his shoulders convulse in an up-down motion and his face contort like someone -perhaps Barbara- is about to slap him?

Maybe the fact the Kerry leads Bush in tracking polls for the 6th straight day will be enough to stir commentators.
