Note to self: Get someone else to speak at my retirement party...


In the midsts of the primary election it seems we have almost forgotten that there is still a sitting president. While I generally think that President Bush is, in fact, an intelligent and educated man with some very sharp political instincts, there is no doubt that he sometimes says the wrong thing. For some reason, a lot of those slip-ups seem to involve the military. For example the Army Times reported yesterday some of his comments upon the retirement of the Army's #2 man in Iraq, Lt. General Ray Odierno:

Trying to summarize Odierno’s role in that success, Bush said, “I appreciate the fact that you really snatched defeat out of the jaws of those who were trying to defeat us in Iraq.”

Comments:
That said, if they re-ran the last two elections again, I would have voted instead for Homer.
