So here's my question of the day (or two or three): What is our illustrious, infamous President since the transition started? Is he taking advantage of Nixon's bowling alley before it get torn down to make room for a basketball court? Is he wandering the halls, opening doors to rooms he's never seen having the Secret Service give him a private tour of the White House before he must depart at 10:00 AM January 20th? Is the lame duck feeding the ducks?
George (if I can call you that - everyone else feels that they have to call you Mr. President), I'm wondering if you're earning your keep these last weeks of the most disastrous presidency in modern times. Or are you just taking inventory of all the precious items that are going in the moving truck? Doesn't look like there are any more arrows in the administration's quiver for the economy (I know let the next guy handle it...) and it looks like Gaza will just burn like Lebanon.
Here's a suggestion: since your approval rating is below 50%, I think that you should have to forgo your pension after you leave office. And I'm talking about all pensions that you would receive from public service, not just the presidency. I'm sure that even Texans are embarrassed to be seen with you. Try what other ex-presidents have done to earn a living - write a book, make a few speeches - oh wait, you're not real good at these things are you. Time to put a thinking cap on, be a little entrepreneurial - oh wait, you were a big failure at that too.
Well, George, I think you better enjoy these last days in the glory of your administration because you're going to be out there with the rest of us, trying to find work, making a living, getting credit and spoiling grandchildren (I'm sure they are on the way soon). And make sure you check out Clinton's closet for any skeletons you may be leaving behind. Oh wait, they don't have a room big enough for your skeletons. Just make sure that the movers don't take them down to Crawford (the picture is from official "western" white house website). Looks like the Bentley is already there.
