Looks like Bush is losing his "Big Brain". Karl Rove announced that he will be leaving the White House at the end of the month. The question is-- will George be able to tie his shoes by himself or pick out his own ties without him?
A wild week on Wall St is causing investors to run for the exits. So let me get this straight. For the last couple of years, a bunch of ding-a-lings have been overpaying for real estate-- and now that they can't pay their bills, the rest of us are going to suffer?
The federal government was forced to pay a Texas couple $80,000 in compensation this week for impeding their free speech at Bush's July 4th speech in Charleston. The Secret Service had detained the couple because they were wearing anti-Bush t-shirts. Never ones to let Constitutional freedoms get in the way, the Bush White House denied any wrongdoing in the matter.
Beckham scored his first goal with the L.A. Galaxy this week in a 2-0 win over DC United. No word yet on how many times he has scored with his wife (the former Posh Spice) since moving to L.A. . . .
An 8.0 magnitude earthquake rocked Peru this week-- the death toll is at 450, and will likely rise over the coming days. In Washington, President Bush offered condolences and said the administration was studying how best to send help. Without Karl Rove on duty, I guess George forgot how to write a check.
Stormin' Mormon: Romney won straw polls in Iowa and Illinois this week.
Four suicide bombings in Iraq this week killed at least 200 people in one of the worst attacks of the war. But thank goodness, we have wall-to-wall coverage of the Utah mine rescue!
Yone Minagawa, the world's oldest person, died this week at age 114. The secret of her longevity? She had an "alcoholic drink" every day. So what are we waiting for? Party on!
At the Movies: "The Invasion" looks to be a real turkey. Although "Superbad" may turn out to be fairly good, let the college crowd have at it. Be sure to go back and see "La Vie en Rose" and "Talk To Me" before they disappear from the multiplex for good.
