More News and Notes

1. Britney Spears can't drive very well.

This is apparently news to some people, and by 'some people,' I mean 'those without a brain.'

2. Did anyone catch any of the interview of President Bush that Politico did in partnership with Yahoo? You can watch clips of it at Yahoo video, among other places. One particular segment stands out, and that is when he is asked why he stopped golfing. His exact quotes are here if you want to read them. I've seen several different editorials and other blogs criticizing this as trivializing the war or caring too much about his legacy, but honestly, I think his sentiment is right on. This is proof that he takes his job and the importance of what he does seriously. He feels that playing golf is a pastime that he can save for later, and really, that makes sense. Remember, as always, I'm coming at this as a somewhat jaded moderate Republican who thinks that Bush has made his share of mistakes.

3. And not to get too political, but it is becoming increasingly obvious that Hillary Clinton needs to give up her bid for the presidency. On the plus side for her, she now has at least one demographic in which she's clearly ahead: uneducated, poor white people.

There are so many jokes... I'm trying to refrain, really, I am.

Deep breaths... ok, ready to go on now.

4. And if you're a Batman fan and haven't seen this yet, shame on you.

I'll try to get another version of "The List" up pretty soon. If you have any ideas, or if you see something worth mentioning, let me know.  Peace.
