Now I know why Bush went to Iraq today!

I saw on the news tonight that President Bush made an unexpected trip to Iraq. This is the trip where the guy threw the shoes at him.

This evening I was reading the NY Times regarding the cuts at the American auto makers who are desperately waiting for bailout money from Washington.

They didn't get it from Congress, and now they are waiting on the White House.

But, they'll have to wait a few more days.

A White House spokeswoman, Dana M. Perino, said Sunday that any action on the auto bailout would have to wait until the president returns from a trip to Iraq.

Ah - ha. Don't be surprised if Bush suddenly decides to visit a few more out of the way places. I think there is still a problem in Kashmir, and he could always go to Somalia and find out what's going on with those gawl durn (southern for gosh dang) pirates.
