All the way to Iraq. He'd make a much better despot and that way, when he wanted to watch the Iraqi soccer players in the Olympics, he'd have a legitimate reason for doing so. He'd rather watch them win gold than Americans? He should be their president.

3. To be fair...
The US mens' soccer team did not qualify for the Olympics. I'm cheering on the Iraqi team, too. Of course, I'm not taking credit for their hard work, either. In fact, I'd like to send them a letter: "Congratulations on your Olympic success. Your hard work and endurance earned you a spot in the hearts of the world. And by the way, we're not all assholes like Bush. Good luck."

Incidentally, I heard or read somewhere from a Bush staff person that "The president is keeping a close eye on the US Olympic teams." Funny how he couldn't be bothered to keep a close eye on terrorism in 2001. I guess that illustrates his priorities.

4. Maybe he'll get a bounce.

Or maybe the TV audience will be distracted by something else going on.

5. Bush will get a big bounce. Incumbents always get a big bounce. wink
Talk it up. Bush will get a big bounce. He is a master debater and has never lost a debate.
