Political Cortex: Brain Food for the Body Politic

This is just a little something I threw together in an openthread over on kos...I figured I'd share it with you good people as well.

Of course, bush will return directly to Crawford as he takes the entire week of Thanksgiving off for vacation (as he has since taking office)...I don't think he ever undersood that four-day weekends aren't meant to be treated as seven day drunks, but to each his own.

I worry that the heat will come off of bush with the holiday break, but there is good news on the horizon...Scanlon's turning state's evidence, and republicans are running scared.  I don't even think bush wants to return to Crawford (where, of course, Cindy Sheehan is waiting to remind him that she's still pissed off about having her son killed in Iraq and wants an answer.

Scanlon starts talking,
Abramoff won't be walking,
Delay's now balking,
And Bush's leaks still need caulking,
GOP tactics are shocking,
But there's been less Chickenhawking,
Though con blogs are still squawking,
and Helen Thomas Scotty's stalking.
