No matter how it goes, Bush is going to come out as an even more vile scoundrel then ever...

Things go well: The angry Left will chime in with "Of course, Texas is a Republican state. He only takes care of his own."

Things don't go well: "See, the dumb Texan can't learn. Three weeks later and he's as dumb as ever".

So tell me, all of you who have been calling for his head on a pike.... what can/should the president do? A nice bottle of chianti, then retire to the White House bathtub with a straight razor? Some hemlock tea perhaps?
