George Bush Will Always Treasure the Time He Personally Arrested Saddam Hussein

"...And then I ripped the gun from his hands, and that's how I single-handedly beat Saddam."

  • The centerpiece of the George W. Bush Presidential Library will be Saddam Hussein’s gun which Bush kept in the Oval Office so he could pull it out and shout, “See! Mission Accomplished!” whenever someone mentioned that we were kinda still fighting in Iraq after 2003. (New York Times)
  • Woohoo! A federal judge ruled that GM can go ahead with its restructuring plan by selling off everything to the government. Camaros for everyone! (New York Times again, because the Washington Post can no longer be trusted)
  • Vice President Biden will swear in Al Franken tomorrow as America’s 100th Senator. Who has to pick up the pieces of Bill O’Reilly’s head after it explodes? (MSNBC)
  • So it’s another work day for America’s Governor™ Mark Sanford, now back from his family’s Independence Day vacation. Making up for missing Father’s Day, I guess. Anyway, state Republicans are keeping busy deciding whether to impeach Sanford now or later. (CNN)
  • Uh oh, Texas teabaggers do not care for Republicans Sen. John Cornyn and Gov. Rick “The Hair” Perry. Cornyn was booed for not letting the U.S. economy sink into oblivion while Perry earned boos for, um, toll roads? (Austin American-Statesman)
