Now I'm not a fan of Jeb Bush by any means. But compared to Georgie Porgie, he's gotta look like the golden son to George Bush, Sr. And thats saying something.
Evidenced by a recent emotional speech given by the elder George Bush, in which he broke down to tears when talking about being proud of Jeb. Yes, just Jeb. No mention of George. Although, he did mention, in that same speech, his burgeoning friendship with Bill Clinton. I wonder how George Jr. feels about that? :P

Celebrities who support pseudoscience and quackery are worse than regular, run-of-the-mill believers because they have a much larger soapbox than any of us do. I have a pretty healthy blog traffic for a medical blog, but even I don’t reach more than maybe 10,000 people a day. Even at my not-so-…

re: Bill Clinton & GW #1 - Well hell, who would you rather party with? An uptight sanctimonious Jesus Freak like Dubya, or a party animal like Clinton?
This actually came up on my favorite radio station the Buzz last night (actually, I'm sure the bit was recorded at more like 6 am). Lazlo and Slimfast decided to let Ephedra have the spotlight for a few minutes to rant about how nobody, especially women, should cry in the workplace. The world is harsh, get used to it, grow the hell up. Then she played the part where Bush Sr. broke into tears, and after another minute, finished with, "With all due respect, sir, you are a bitch. You should not be crying! You are a former U.S. President!" Lazlo had her repeat the bitch part more directly after a repeat of the clip. I'm sure there's lots of progressive Kansans out there thinking about what a fool Bush Sr. has made of himself. In our eyes, at least.
