Political bits
(CNN) Cheney will be president for a few hours tomorrow while Bush gets a colonoscopy. (They're going to have to shove that tube pretty far up there to get it past the president's head.)
(ThinkProgress) A Novak rumor that Denny Hastert "is likely he will not run for a 12th term... and may even resign from Congress before his present term concludes." (Atrios very obliquely suggests he might be on the DC Madam's list.)
(RadioIowa) At the somewhat silly, but widely covered Iowa Ames straw poll, after people have cast their ballots, "they'll have to dip their finger Iraqi style" in ink. (Is that really the image the GOP wants to be summoning right now?)

Thanks.
I'm actually surprised most of the jokes are about Cheney being in charge. I mean, how often do you get a clean shot at a prseident's butt joke.

Mike, you mentioned this a few days ago... I found the YouTube video of the CNN report by Michael Ware on the US using Sunni insurgents to fight AQ.
Oh... but on Bush's medical proceedure, previews of what you will see on TV...
MSNBC news crawl: Sphincter Watch: Docs looking for Iraq withdrawal plan, “It must be in here somewhere…”
Jack Cafferty asks, “What are the chances that republicans can pull a rabbit out of a hat? Email your answers to CNN.com, slash ‘why bother’.”
Fox News Britt Hume: “Fox has just learned that the doctor performing this delicate procedure contributed to the John Kerry campaign in 2004, could this be a democrat plot to break it off in Bush?”
Jon Stewart: “Here is what they found”, as they show footage from Jaws of Dreyfuss opening up the shark, “he has been swimming in Gulf waters…” While the mayor snipes, “This is not the time or the place to perform some kind of a half-assed autopsy… And I’m not going to stand here and see that thing cut open and see that little Scooter boy spill out all over the dock.”

Now see, that's what I'm talking about!!! That's great.
The joke isn't Cheney taking charge, the joke is the president's ass.
Let me add one more:
In a desperate attempt to save his war, George Bush allows doctors to look in the very last possible place for WMD's.

Glad to hear that Bush is finally having his head examined.
