How?

His replacement seems such an exciting chanzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

what Ned said.

At this point, the only thing the administration could do that might excite me would be to turn up dead with designer Nikes on their feet and a roll of quarters in their pockets.

Card, 58, stood stoically with his hands by his sides as Bush lauded his years of service. Then, gripping the podium, Card said in his farewell: "You're a good man, Mr. President."

Card's eyes were watery. He said he looked forward to just being Bush's friend. Bush then gave him five quick slaps on the back, and the two walked out of the Oval Office together.

"Andy Card, a longtime friend of mine, is tired. That he stayed in this job this long shows how much he cares about this country," Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, told reporters later.

HE'S tired? tell it to the marines.

I know it's probably inaccurate, but I find this about as important and exciting as if it were revealed that Bush was going to replace his office furniture.

yeah, this is like reporting that Rumsfeld has a new haircut or something.

"Andy Card, a longtime friend of mine, is actually dead. That he was capable of being even remotely animated for this long shows how much Dick Cheney has learned about santeria and socializing zombies in the undisclosed underground military bunker he calls home," Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, told reporters later. "Just don't let Andy get a hold of a gun," he added, "he can get a little crazy."

Bush then gave him five quick slaps on the backside, and the two walked out of the Oval Office together.

At least, I wish.

"Card's eyes were watery. He said he looked forward to just being Bush's friend. Bush then gave him five quick slaps on the back, and the two walked out of the Oval Office together."

This sounds like some sort of breakup doesn't it. "Of course we can just be friends, Andy," said Bush, "just like me and Brownie are friends."

the "five quick slaps on the back" sounds like some kinda mafia signal ("okay boys, take him out back, and don't spare the icepicks and baseball bats")

I WISH I KNEW HOW TO FIRE YOU.
