Other than that same ol' propaganda line that he stole the election (You have to give the reporter an A for towing the party line to 'nth degree) the article was an interesting one, and one that doesn't really shed new information. Even those of us way over here in Alabama were laughing at that whole idea. But it never was made out that Bush had lived there for a long time, or any time at all. As a matter of fact, I remember when they bought it and started setting it up for Bush to visit. Regardless, the idea of Shrub being a cowboy is hilarious. Reagan he ain't! And the notion of him being a cowboy isn't the only thing fake, either; he's as much a conservative as he is a cowboy!

Much the same was reported of Adams and 1600, Pennsylvania Ave.
these d**ned politicians!

But fear not: merely a nod from Her Majesty and the Brits will come to Crawford and burn it down.

lol, Estragon, we did however finally get an apology of sorts from Blair over that:

Sprinkling witty asides throughout, in one instance Blair said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., had escorted him past the fireplace where the British had burned the books of the Library of Congress in 1814: "I know this is kind of late, but - sorry," Blair said to laughter.

But, if you chaps want to burn something there's a certain family compound in Hyannisport, Mass., that I for one wouldn't miss

Bush and Blair, separated at birth? Both of them are masters of spin! But the lengths Bushes boys went to to get him in office are quite staggering!

Splendid anecdote, Bob: the Kennedy address will be passed on to the appropriate authorities in London.
