Quote of the Day

Heckuva Job -- Hilzoy looks back at George W. Bush's first inaugural and compares what he promised and what was delivered.
He's a small, small man, who ought to have spent his life in some honorary position without responsibilities at a firm run by one of his father's friends. Instead, he ruined our country, and several others besides. He wasted eight years in which we could have been shoring up our economy, laying the groundwork for energy independence, making America a fairer and better country, and truly working to help people around the world become more free. Instead, he debased words that ought to mean something: words like honor, decency, freedom, and compassion.

George Bush is contemplating authoring a book about his presidency. I got to thinking that the title of a book is the first thing you notice about it. So I got this idea. First ever contest on Bailey's Buddy. Name the Bush Book. I will award the moon as a prize. (as with all politicians and things political I can promise but you win nothing.) Suggest your titles in the comments. Have fun.
