Where's A Shepherd's Crook When You Need One?

So the President was supposed to pass the torch to McCain at a little newsie gaggle at the White House today. Of course, he and his staff even screwed up something as routine as that, and Bush showed up before McCain, so the President proceeded to embarrass the entire nation.

The only thing to make this entire farce worth watching is the way Bush refused to let McCain speak, droning on and on and on . . . .

One last note. I thought McCain was supposed to have superb political instincts. If so, why in the hell is he appearing on TV with the most unpopular President ever? I realize this is one of those "events" that broadcast news creates in order to give it something to do with a 24 hour cycle, but one would think that a President with a 19% approval rating would get, perhaps, a mention once in a while.

Bush doing soft shoe. Heaven and saints and all good things preserve us.
