Breaking News From the White House

Did anyone see what happened today? Did you hear the news?

NBC interrupted it’s shitty housewife programming to give you the Special Report. CBS stopped it’s midday senior citizen lineup of the Price is Right. And one of the pregnant teens on Maury Povich stopped just short of telling us which 14 year old kid with the cooked ADIDAS hat and Hillfigires hanging past his miniature testicles was the father of her new Red-State bastard kid, all to let you, the daytime TV viewer, get the following breaking story:

George W Bush took responsibility for something.

Un-fucking-believable.

Although the story has yet to be confirmed, despite Republicans blaming the hurricane on Democrats, the victims of the storm and New Orleans for even existing, Bush noticed that his own pointed finger, as the saying goes, had three others pointing back at himself.

This might be first step in like 10,000 Bush needs to take in order to explain to the American people how we lost our surplus, our allies, many of our constitutional rights, 2,000 soldiers, two trade centers, our World Standing, our media legitimacy, the guy who planned the 9/11 attacks and our general confidence in anything government has ever done to protect people…however I wouldn’t really expect any apologizing about those mundane things.

Let’s just let him start with the FEMA (otherwise known as Failure to Effectively Manage Anything or Fuck Evacuating Minorities in America) and who knows, maybe tomorrow Karl Rove will apologize for outing a CIA agent.

The only reason I can figure out why for the first time in his entire presidency he came close to admitting a mistake, is that he’s looking to find a way to do something with his disastrous poll numbers. The latest approval ratings are as follows:

Newsweek: 38%
Washington
Post/ABC: 42%

Time Magazine: 42%
Associated Press: 39%

Nixon During the Height of Watergate: 39%

Bush needs a terror alert and he needs it SOON.

Last night I saw the clip of Bush's admission for the first time on the Daily Show.

I'm trying to get a video clip of it - the expression on his face is that of wincing in pain. He appears incredibly uncomfortable, as if an advisor pulled him aside, gave him a pep talk and said, "look, you NEED to just go and do this...rip the band aid off fast George."
