Bush gives "Ho" Lieberman a sloppy, wet kiss

And not for the first time, either. AFP:

Bush cited opposition Democratic Senator Joseph Lieberman's support for his Iraq strategy after a trip to see US-led reconstruction and stabilization efforts first-hand.

"The senator says that mistakes have been made. But he goes on to say that he's worried about a bigger mistake," namely a US pullout before Iraqis can keep order themselves, said Bush. "Senator Lieberman is right."

And the cream of the jest is that Bush uses Lieberman as cover when He utters that dread word, "mistake."

I think Babs has set it up this way: Right before the SOTU, Rummy has a conveniently timed psychotic break and resigned. Quisling Joe gets DOD, and Inerrant Boy claims a third Bush mandate as the head of a government of national unity....
